So can we talk about the ridiculous amount of bots there are "playing" league..?

Since i created this account ive been lucky to get maybe 2 games without a single bot. Last game, my entire team was bots... Is there really nothing that can be done about this? Trying to play ARAM just makes it even worse, wait 10 minutes for an ARAM match just for it to be filled with bots and get stomped by a team of actual people. Its almost painful to play normal sum rift at this level because of all the smurfs, bots, and extremely toxic players that had been recently banned. So instead of good ol sum rift i swapped to ARAM games and i just find it insane how many bots there are, can Riot not tell when there is a bot in a game? Starting to live up to my name i guess eh, Tilted... :D

i played aram yesterday with 4 bots on my team and 2 on the other team. its pretty bad.

i bet you there are thousands of games being played right now with no human in them at all. just 5v5 bots grinding up levels and IP so they can be sold.

I have never in my 4 years of league seen the bots you describe. I might have run into an aimbot or 2 but I might have just thought they were good players, but I have never seen an ip farm bot.

I wrote about this before, I even have a video I made on how they behave. Aram in early levels is crowded with bots, just like dominion was (and I still believe that it was the main reason it was shut, not like Riot says "It wasn't popular"). When you get to higher levels you see the bot count decreasing. Maybe the system is actually banning them (Well at least 10% of them) but it doesn't track pattern or anything, maybe it depends solely on reports and you can't just get someone banned by reporting a single time.

I've been running into some bots now and then. Primarily in TT (everyone's a bot in that) and coop matches. I've been reporting them every time, and I've been seeing less and less.

I know right, what the hell is going on. I mostly play Co-op vs AI because of my anxiety and there is at least one bot in everything game, just running it down mid. gotta love playing against a 25/0 teemo. Like seriously is so infuriating to play with.

Yeah, I was level 9 once, and hoo boy, do bots ruin aram or what... What i notice is that bots have similar behavior, so a bunch of if's it looks unnatural (e.g) idles at nexus for 5 seconds before moving.... could screw it up.

In coop vs AI it's the same thing.
