SotO and MS in Co-op vs. AI.

This has been posted many times and is prolly a stupid post, but I'd like to state my thoughts on these two items in bot games. I believe these two items are horrible for the Co-op vs. AI experience; new players don't do anything, players that want to try new builds or practice mechanics with a champ and etc. end up finishing the game before they get to really do anything, and overall it just ruins the Co-op vs. AI experience. I would love for these two items to be removed- they are horrible items to have, and while I could elaborate further, I'm really lazy. Unfortunately, there is one issue with them being removed at the moment and that's due to the ridiculous number of people botting. The other day I made a fresh account and had a team of three botters and someone that decided to feed intentionally for whatever reason. Needless to say, it was a pain in the arse finishing that game up. I had to buy Sword of the Occult to win the match (because I'm bad). A 1v5 against 5 fed bots is not fun.

Tl;dr I'd love to see these items removed. You don't need stacks to get your first win of the day- if anything, it's just more incentive to prolong the game for the full stacks. And believe it or not, carrying noobs with Mejai's and going 50-0 while sitting in their lane babysitting them isn't actually fun for the noobs. These items ruin the Co-op vs. AI experience.

I completely agree. Though I don't play Co-Op vs AI anymore, most of the games I have played were ruined by someone rushing mejai's/occult and walking around the map 2 shotting everything. Everyone else in the game gets no gold, no items, and it's just a lame experience.

These items were designed to be a significant risk and there's NO RISK AT ALL in Co-Op vs AI. You can win every time without stupidly overpowered items, so "I like to stomp bots" is hardly an excuse to keep them... they're going to get stomped anyway.

Yeah it's not, bots are too easy to kill even when fed 1v5. They need to be harder. I don't understand the logic of needing to buy SotO or MS, you need to kill them to gain stacks, and if you are getting stacks you can already beat them without the item.

SotO and MS just need to be removed from the game altogether, i'm sick and tired of 0/10 Kat and Luxes building it in my ranked promos.

No, you won't, because the dude hogging all of the kills is going to be CSing 10 times faster than everybody else as well. Do you even play this game or do you just come to forums to spew nonsense and argue?
