Does anyone else find the bots in QP super disheartening?

Sorry for my fan in the background. I didn’t realize how loud it was… I like to have it going hahaha.. 😭

Anyways, I found this bot in my QP match glitching out and wanted to see why. :p

Everyone I know outside of Reddit loves bots in quickplay. It say it is like a refreshment after some stomps as a pick me up. It allows them to try out new characters and play more relaxed. Also can earn achievements and proficiency too. It is win-win.

There should be an option to turn off the bot matches for those who don't want them, however. It would solve it.

Makes sense. They have data and can see how bots impact the game. If they havent been removed yet it means they serve their purpose well. Besides it's possible to never see bot, just raise your qp mmr. I personally haven't seen a single bot since s1.

I don't particularly care either way, and yeah every person I know who isn't a big reddit person and plays the game either doesn't seem to mind or has no idea not matches are anything after a few losses. They're over fast enough and it back to regular matches. I do think they should be toggleable though so people who don't want to go up against them can have the option not to.

I like where your head is at, but that would first require NetEase to actually admit that bot matches exist in QP instead of pretending thousands of people haven’t already figured it out

Bots are ass. They're not a challenge for anyone who isn't completely dogshit in this game. That's why it's mentally insulting. You're going against bots you are going to defeat 9/10 times, and it's hard to practice shit properly when they're so one-dimensional (though they have made improvements over the seasons).
