i just got back after watching a friend play lol and noticed a large amount of bots that start with ghost and heal, they feed constantly and even win at times unless their opponents are horrible players, it's incredibly boring watching my lv.15-21 friend play in Twisted Treelines with all these bots ruining this beautiful map (it's my favorate map)

they have weird names such as SebastfdknzB and always pick the free rotation champions and have fixed runes.

it feels like fighting intro bots, and to think some people actually die to them at lv.16-26 makes me lose hope in humanity :(

There are like tenthousands of these accounts that are being created constantly, running one of a few scripts and be thrown into gamemodes like ARAM, TT or SR coop gamemodes. Riot bans them in waves to prevent that scripters can look through the algorithm that detects these accounts in the first place.

It's an everlasting fight because there's no effort in creating these new accounts, but they keep ruininig the exprience for players they encounter unless they are banned as part of the ban waves.

I know it sucks, but I can't say much about Riot's strategy other than they try to keep their algorithm save that detects them, yet I don't understand why accounts that are reported by human players are not simple removed. Doesn't have anything to do with that algorithm but I'm no expert.
