TL;DR Botting is ruining 3v3

TL;DR - Bot scripts are killing 3v3 and ruining experience.

So my wife and I play a lot of 3v3 games because they are easier to start and yaddah yaddah, essentially EVERY game we play has at very least 1 bot script, try as I might, I can't find an official Riot post on the subject, other than "EULA says it's against the rules.". So is Riot planning on adding a Captcha service, or maybe a death-spree check? Die X-amount of times with no kills means an in-game Captcha or something, I don't get paid to fix your games for you, but I sure as hell have dropped a bit of money to support it against my wife's wishes. I have probably spent nearly $250.00 USD on LoL since we started playing around like Christmas 2009 I believe, but lately we have been playing DoTA2 and HoTS, the only reason we still visit leagues today is because we feel invested but even that is getting to be not enough as we see month after month nothing being done about Botters.Viktor summoner 13 item 3198

Riot doesn't particularly like talking specifics about bots due to the arms race nature of the problem. They're supposedly working on banning bots though. Riot recommends reporting the bots with whatever category that fits and explaining that it's a bot and why in the comments.

In the meantime, bots tend to stay around the entry-level MMR range. If you win games and raise your MMR, you might be able to avoid most bots.
