Scripters and Script Sitters in my Games Again

Zaryelle··2 votes·431 views

Just had 3 games in a row with scripters in each one. First one had teemo and ashe who were using scripts. Teemo even admitted it. The script just follows them around and barely does anything all game, pings random spots, uses heal at full health then tower dives. Same thing next game with Morgana and an Ashe bot. Morgana tried to protect the bot saying it's just her friend, but then Ashe would glitch out whenever Morgana recalled and turret dive and ping all over the place. Then had an Ezrael that would use abilities whenever they are off cooldown no matter if enemies were around or not, run out of mana every minute, and walk back all the way instead of recalling. The match history of all of them made it pretty obvious, they would buy the same items every game regardless of champion, and go from scores in Co Op like 2/1/10 to 0/15/2 from game to game with the same champion, since their success depends almost entirely on the players helping them stay alive.

What's a script sitter? ...but yes starting Monday, they literally exploded in frequency. 100% percent of every has least 1 issue player.

They queue with the script controlled champion, usually in the same club, one of them will defend the script pretending it's a new player when it's obviously a script.

ok, yes, no totally agree, I was just unfamiliar with the term.

What I don't understand is the numerous support troll bots or in riot support land "new players"

because I don't know about you, but I learned while leveling to 30 that sabotaging an adc's cs is wrong, but somehow there are all these "new players" who are still "learning"

Stuff is getting more and more outlandish every day.


I've also tried educating people about why the "a summoner has disconnected like 20 times and reconnected" is indicative of a script/bot runner who had their bots crash but is too busy playing their other champ to take care of it.

people ask me how I know. it's just deductive reasoning and knowledge of computers etc. I play out scenarios in my head and usually the simplest scenario which explains the effects seen in game are true.

I just made up the term myself after experiencing it a few times. Player X is clearly a bot after watching several clues, I will say 'Is Player X a bot' then Player Y (usually in the same club) will say "no we are friendsin skype now" i will say "Player X say hello please" or something like that, then Player Y will say ' they don't want to talk', in my mind bs, script sitter.

Now there are times where it's actually a new player, but not usually. I've played with a lot of new players and it's pretty easy for me to tell them apart from scripts.

I haven't seen the support bots you are talking about recently, but I used to see them all the time. But the ones I'm thinking of are the Soraka that would just follow you around and either heal constantly or not heal at all.. but I'm pretty sure this bot stopped being used because it was so easy to detect.

The thing I'm really worried about is this new script that is on par with intermediate bots and very hard to detect. I can tell myself because of the repetitive motions and other clues, but I doubt they will ever get banned because they are indeed better than some new players, but I am 100% convinced they are scripting.

Absolutely. Now enter stage left unskilled untrained (in this area) Riot support staff.

"What waaaaat, you think I am bot"

"Hey Ricky! This thinks guy thinks that I am a robot. LOL HA HA HA"

"That's hil --- aaaaa - arious. You just baaaad."


"Player X say hello please" or something like that, then Player Y will say ' they don't want to talk', in my mind bs, script sitter.

Ha Ha! I've done the same things. It's hilarious all the different excuses.
