BOTS in Co-op AI SR

Aurora Borealis·May 27, 2016·6 votes·991 views

I didn't know they started existing in SR, thought it was just a Dominion thing. This turns off new players.

EDIT: Also, look at my ms. Why is it so lag, Riot?

Bots on summoner's rift have been around since I started playing in 2012. They will never be able to catch them all unfortunately. I have seen this with multiple games in the past. Even if Riot implements a system to catch them, the player base will end up figuring out a way to bypass it until Riot figures out a way to counter the bypass. Then the player base will figure out a way to bypass the counter. Then on and on they go.

I don't play Co-op AI a lot, just occasionally, but this is the first time I've seen them in SR. That's news to me xD

They actually were less common because all of them were on Dominion but Riot trashed it because they only make a billion dollars a year and can't afford to update it.

Sure, they were less common on the rift but that doesn't mean there weren't 1-3 bots in every other game.

They have already, there's newer bot scripts that will ping and cs somewhat effectively. They won't turret dive as much and they're actually about on par with some intermediate bots, but there are still some obvious signs they are bots if you watch closely. Most people won't notice though or if I tell them they are bots no one will believe me because they are very convincing.

Edit: Just had 3 games in a row with scripters in each one, getting annoyed, I also made a topic about it.
