Intermediate Bot Game Suggestion

Slipshoddy·Nov 2, 2019·3 votes·5,548 views

I'm a big fan but a terrible player so I just play bots. Its a ton of fun (so many cool champions) but I kinda wish there was more PvE action and a little less individual snowball. Dragons and Baron don't matter, usually its just 1 or 2 players that get fed and push for the win. My idea is to apply a curse (1/4 gold income) to players when they reach 4k, 6k, 8k, and 10k gold. The curse is cured by killing dragons. And maybe spice things up with some new dragons or use the bot jungle for something. Also make like 25% of the games flipped so I could get used to playing red side. [I see a lot of guys with skins and I always insta-que so Riot plz show some bot love someday]

Intermediate bots is not really supposed to be a "fun" mode, bot games are for learning champions and practicing combos etc. Intermidiate bots are meant to be more challenging than beginner bots.... which they are. Not only is the champions usually harder to deal with, but they are more aggressive when their computer says they can kill (heck, ive had one tower dive me and kill me lol).

League is, and always will be primarily pvp. They focus things around pvp. Thats why you will never see "because this champion has been performing extrordinarily well in bots, we are nerfing." Or anything like that.

They do have some pve modes that they bring around from time to time, one of them is Doom Bots.

Personally however, I feel they need to impliment a map similar to Velkoz Highway in the Star Guardian event, to help people practice dodging and staying alive. Possibly with minions around so you can be practicing farming while you are under fire.

We used to have hide and seek for that but Riot was mean and removed Dominion from custom maps.

I recently had played some hide and seek recently on Summoners Rift, you just have the hiders do a bit of farming till 6, then dont buy anything that is not for survival. As in, hiders do not go for kills or damage on the seeker. The seeker or seekers are going to mostly be jungling etc and then doing some minions for experience and gold etc until the hiders are level 6.

The seekers can hide near minions to get levels still afterwards, but when they hit 6 they are supposed to hide and when everyone is hidden..... the hunt is on.

Fellow terrible player here.

Just play normals ? The bots get so easy to read after a while. You never really learn anything from them. Dont worry about playing bad. there are players in iron 4 with 18% wr. Its a game, dont worry about the outcome so much. Ignore/mute the flamers most dont know what they are talking about anyway. In normal games PVE is so much more important, early drakes and herald can help significantly! And sometimes needing baron to help close a game out. keeping vision around those objectives etc.

I do agree that sometimes being redside in bot games would be better just for learning skillshots from redside.

The fact that you called yourself a terrible players means you arent as bad as others. Most people refuse to admit theyre bad at the game and in which case they get stuck where they are, instead you've already admitted it. So from every game you play you'll be able to learn a lot especially from losses.
