Why doesn't Riot crack down on bot players in Co-op?

Oddibbal··1 votes·1,986 views

2/5 of every Co-op game are bot controlled player accounts. Literally. They're super obvious. It certainly ruins the low level experience. Why doesn't Riot seem to do anything about them? I report them every time I see them but I never get a follow-up message. I'm really confused. Do they not see this as a problem?

They see it , they banning it on waves. You can know when the ban wave comes when people start making topics like : i had this acc from season 1 i never cheated but got banned for 3rs program (meanwhile their acc is level 30-40 and havent played 1 season yet ) ( dont buy botted accounts ! ) But yeah i agree its kinda annoying to play with bots but you playing againts bots as well so its easy game c:

This is accurate. The only thing I would add is that it’s like the mythical Hydra - when one head (account) is cut off (banned), two more will arise in its place.

There is no good way to stop bot accounts before they play games, and unfortunately bot games are the only games available to those accounts when they’re first created.

I'd rather have bots in co-op games than pvp

most people can 1v5 a co-op, not so much pvp

if bots are most often found in co-op, that's a good thing not a bad thing

You only get punishment notifications for verbal harassment (including hate speech) and disruptive gameplay punishments.

No punishment notifications for any other offenses.
