Bots?

Shandria··2 votes·399 views

Can someone at Riot PLEASE for the love of fuck do their job and get rid of the bots in low level Twisted Treeline? I'm so sick of every single match having at least 1 bot, and every other match having 2 bots and I'm stuck LOSING A BOT MATCH because my other two teammates go 0/9 and 0/10. Yesterday had a game where both other people on my team went 0/20. And I say people, but I mean bots.

And this isn't a case of me calling out new players. You can tell when a player is a bot, don't act like you don't. They all use the same program. It focuses minions, but just auto attacks, so it doesn't hardly get any actual farm because it can't last hit. Even when enemy champions are standing 2 feet away, or even attacking it, the bot will not register them unless they are the last enemy remaining. And then when the bot reaches 30% hp, it runs straight back to spawn. Doesn't back, just legs it.

Why do you even have this gamemode if it's just all bots? Like can we get a little quality control please? Do you guys at Riot even play your own game?

it bugs the shit out of me as well, but they don't normally do much about the bots unless they're banning them in waves.

That's... that's so stupid... this is a game where you can get perma banned for RESPONDING to toxicity, but they won't ban bots...

if it makes you feel better, playing with larger groups of friends can totally eliminate the chances of encountering a bot while playing in vs ai :) If you'd like, you could add me? I exclusively play bots actually haha

Whoa whoa hold on there... You know nothing of how they handle these things but you're willing to just say that nonsense. Check yourself.

These bot accounts are being tracked and banned in waves to deter their creators from tweaking their programs slightly, learning how riot detects them. Everytime they get banned, that's a bit of knowledge for these bastards that make them. They can make changes and send out new waves of bots that won't get detected in the same way.

Furthermore, Riot wants to find where they're being sold, and seek legal action against their creators. They're shutting down entire sites, not just 1 account at a time. I'm pretty sure the multimillion dollar company knows a little better how to handle it than you buddy.

Also, think of how hard that must be to combat. Thousands of people trying to make money off farming accounts and selling them. Thousands. Against one company. As soon as they get banned, new ones are made. It's an unfortunate reality of the internet. It will go on until the game dies. But if you know how to handle it, please do tell Riot and educate us, because it's just so stupid to you, that must mean you know something that we don't. Please, educate us.
