I actually had this issue not too long ago when I queued for TT normals at 5:30 AM.

Ended up in a game with 5 bots. No one communicated, and no one played like a person. I could take objectives with no resistance or response and triple the opposing team with no effort because they were severely underleveled and underfarmed.

It wasn't an enjoyable experience.

Thanks for the replies, this will help us isolate and take action

Hrm, what game mode were you playing and what tipped you off to them being a bot? We've regularly clamped down bots in the past but new ones do pop up and we are always on the lookout for emerging threats. Thanks for the feedback!

TT is horrible. I genuinely wish I could play TT. I love it. LOVE IT. But the bots... the bots have overrun it.

I have not ran in to a Bot in ARAM, that I know of. But typically they run Heal/Flash.

Bots in twisted treeline always buy boots and 2 pots. They take weird summoners like cleanse ignite but there is a couple variations. Their play style is run straight until there is something to attack and rarely retreat. I have watched them suicide to turrets continuously. Any time I play normals at night to practice for ranked 3's every game has at least one bot. One game was my friend and I and 4 bots. It is really not fun and if it stays like this I'm afraid we will have to find another game with a 3v3 mode.

bump up a jam. New treeline map and bots are still there. Though they are a bit confused at the moment and can actually hug the new outer turret and provide some level of distraction.

Ai games has many bots. I've seen annie bot and soraka bot constantly following me and healing me, Sometimes I saw bots cast silence on me :o maybe its code is old soraka bot they both and different summoner name but They said samething at the end of the game It was something like 'GG WP honors after the game :D'

This isn't especially relevant to the bot discussion but..... What made Runescape lose its popularity was the fact that they changed what everybody loved about it (by changing the combat system) to make it like other mmo rpgs(Only to not measure up to said mmos). The botting kind of took a backseat to that reason.
