Players Using Bots in TT Blind Pick

So I was playing a late night game or two of Twisted Treeline because it had been a while, around 2-3 am Central Time, and I am quite certain there were an inordinate amount of bot controlled players.... first game both my team mates and the oposing team were playing so poorly I am pretty sure that no one was a human but me, no comunicaiotion what so ever from either side. With how bad I was winning pretty much alone... its obvious several players had to be bot controlled not sure who but I would wager two or all of the enemy team and my team as well.... but I can't say for certain but so many just stood there and let themselves be killed.... repeatedly and no one played smart, no one complained about my winning so hard and no one surendered.... ill take the s... but still... the second game is what made me do a post

On the second game my team had the same non deault summoner icon.... a similar naming scheme and the exact same level. One of them went afk and the other was playing so poorly and hap hazzardly that it was obvious to the other two actual humans on the other team and myself that he was bot controlled. Did not even responed to accusations just to be sure. I know it could have been muted but.... the evidecne suggests this was indeed a bot.

So my question is, is this common now, are a bunch of people using this almost dead side mode for bot farming late at night to go under the radar easier? has anyone else had a similar experience or am I just unlucky. I know it was only two games but.... it is notheless annoying to have loss on your record that is soely becasue you pretty much didnt have a team, and that aside its toxic for the game to have this sort of thing about.... nice as a free s rank is.... its not as fulfilling and the frustartion of being put in that situation is just more disheartening than any salt I have ever mustered about anything else.

So yeah I know cheaters will always be a thing but .... I just kinda wanted to rant and see how comon it really is with a straw poll, thanks for reading.

TT is and has been for a very long time primarily bots while your mmr is still terrible. It's not even just late at night, either.

Another 2 months and your problem is solved. Bye Bye, TT!

Its extremely common. I sometimes see those botted accounts in my Ranked games and even sometimes here on the Boards. Alot of people do not change the account names after they buy them, making it very easy to notice.
