Matchmaking Makes No Sense

Playing a lot of ARAM on this guy, and I endlessly keep getting 2-4 bots on my team. Yeah, they're bots. They take the standard ghost/heal in default order, all get the same non-standard starting items depending on if they are AD/AP, and they do fun things like stand behind a minion wave and stare at the road ahead, getting murdered over and over and over.

And it poses an interesting question.

Am I such a terrible player that I end up on teams with .007KDA bots? All the time. Like 4 of them? Numerous times?

And if that's the case, then why do I keep encountering players on the enemy team that are gold? I know MMR is different per queue, but come on.

It says a lot about your matchmaking that I would keep getting teams that are mostly bots who play on an iron15 level while also being against a team of silver/golds who may or may not have a bot or two on their team. It says a lot about your game that there are this many bots in a very popular game mode and you're doing nothing about it. Nothing at all. I've reported so many of them. THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY BOTS. And nothing. Happens. Ever.

Not that you can control bot accounts on that high of a level, but seriously, shouldn't matchmaking algorythims be part of combating this experience?

But if a player says a couple unsavory things they get an instaban in no time at all. Clearly something is wrong here.

Small indie company. Cant handle bot detection.
