This is an issue that is continually getting worse in the lol community. I have played thousands of games and the worst issue that I've found is that I run into a "bot" simulation program that just plays the game doesn't do anything other than feeding the other team and riot doesn't seem to be doing anything about it. At first I only found them in aram but now I've found them spread around other game modes. I'm sick going 30-5-20 and they are just stomping through us bc we have 3 players that are 0-16 and just walking though towers and champions to the other nexus.

Aram= a mode a small % of the community cares about Dominion had the same issues, riot can do what they did to that and we'd see no more aram bots

TBF you will climb above bots mmr in any other gamemode fairly quickly, so after a few games in a mode, your mmr should be placed with active users over bots.(unless you're just losing games consistently like less than 30% win rate)

Or they could put in a bot check at matchmaking. something akin to a captcha that requires human interface to pass. akin to, not exactly obviously. This isn't some NASA grade groundbreaking technology to be able to filter out bots. Yes. they obviously care very little to clean up ARAM or even look at it ever. But don't give me "small community of players" talk when the only people that know how many people play it are Riot, and they would never reveal those numbers. If it is relevant enough to exist it should be kept playable. Multiple games in a row ruined by bots is not acceptable.
