I am sick of bots in ARAM

ARAMTrash1·Aug 23, 2017·2 votes·431 views

I just got through a match where 3/5 teammates were bots and 2/5 on the enemy were bots.

I report every single one I see and nothing ever changes. I am trying to lvl an ARAM only account but this is just too much when over half my team are accounts that will probably sold for $$$$.

But I am losing hope that reporting them does anything.

Just feels bad. [zombie-nunu-tears]

Edit: Would like to be clear I am not just complaining about me. I am complaining about everyone who plays ARAM has to deal with this stuff.

Just a heads up that you may get downvoted for mentioning that you are making an aram only account. But basically, your only solution is to win more games. When you win games your MMR will increase and bots wont be matched with you anymore (because they lose too many games)

So, not to be that guy, but "Get Gud" is your only option.

I was thinking that as well. But the fact is I cant win matches if I have more bot teammates then my enemies so I cant increase my MMR. My main issue is pre lvl 30 ARAM is just a Russian roulette of "Which team has less bots".

Its a numbers game at that point. basically, win the games that are even. Lose the games that aren't in your favor (too many bots on your team) and win the games that the enemy team has more bots. Over time you should win more games assuming you are a capable player. And hey, since you are making an aram account, winning games should be even easier.

how about instead of telling him that "scripting is ok and its going to happen, get good" you try and understand that riot is FUCKING up, and doesnt have proper banning for said scripters.

Except that's not what he said at all. As players, we have essentially no control over Riot banning bots. We can ask and complain about it, yet it's still ultimately something outside our power. The one thing we can do is to win more games and use MMR as a workaround for the botting problem. It's neither ideal nor elegant, but it more or less works.

Riot doesn't take the time to create an efficient bot detection program. All the billions of dollars they are making and scripting is alive and well with only a few people punished here and there. The reason they cracked down on chat is only because they don't want to look completely incompetent in every other area of trolling and or cheating. For a billion dollar company with only one game they sure don't have their priorities in order. Those new skins looking good tho.

Yes it is in my control how good I am. And while I will say I am not the greatest I am not terrible either.

My complaint is I am losing because of bots and scripters who ruin the game mode for everyone and not just me. There was even some new type of bot I found and there were 3 on both teams who did nothing but sit in spawn all in a little ball never moved or did anything made the whole match a 2v2.Wasnt fun for either team even though I won.
