Idea: hard bot mode - 4 humans vs 5 bots

Currently intermediate mode is way to easy . There could be a simple way to introduce a hardmode against bots. 4 humans vs 5 bots. The humans would have solo their lanes and rely on a jungler to gank to progress forward.. what do you think?

Laughs in 1v5 intermediate bots

Any slightly competent player can get fed and 1v3 at minimum versus intermediate bots, so knocking one human off the human team doesn't really do anything.

Hell, I can 1v5 most of the time. Basic map awareness and minion control means easy wins against bots.

I mean, people already beat bots in a 1v5 scenario so don't see how a 4v5 would make them any harder

it goes without saying it would be harder than a 5v5 :p

or just play blinds. If you play against something with actual intelligence you'll improve much faster.

Bots are nice when you want to practice stuff without dealing with tox and big egos.

I think they should just program them to somewhat mimic human behavior instead of chasing after you until they take a tower shot only to repeat 10 seconds later until they are low enough for you to kill them.

They're already doing that, they seem to have learned how to int and run it down a lane.

Just perma doombots would solve the issue.

Even if only in custom games!

Still too easy, I have one 1 human + 2 bots vs 5 bots.

The point is to introduce a new 'hard-mode' game type in a simple manner. i.e. the mechanics stay the same but it adds a slighter harder challenge for the humans. I realize you can play PVP, but sometimes you just want to jump on and have a quick game that is a little bit challenging. One of my games took just over 13 minutes for victory.
