And there is like no way to track it - no kill camera or replay to watch if the kills were legal or not.

Then how can you say they're aimbotting ? If there's no proof to say they're not cheating, there isn't either one to say they are.
Obviously not everyone is clear, but often it might just be an impression caused by lag, Paladins' hitboxes or the general paranoia caused by the lack of a way to verify it, as you stated.

Because when someone aims you as a sniper behind 2-3 walls and always does a headshot is something.

Not naming or shaming anyone, but I see a lot of questionable players who don't even aim to do things, especially snipers like Kinessa and Strix. And there is like no way to track it - no kill camera or replay to watch if the kills were legal or not.

@Lukash369 Stop acting as if that's the leavers. Every single match contains a bot since the beginning.

That's more like a confirmation at this point.

Last 3-4 matches my team had 1-2 bots since the beginning of the match and enemy team had all real-life players. And this happends on regular basis be it ranked or casual.

Well done, HiRez. Following the Realm Royale road to add bots into games since the start of the match?

@Lukash369 She could also take the self healing card when using Smoke Bomb and she heals only herself. Do you know how much did she heal US with her HEALING talent? 10k? She could go for other talents to deal more damage. Like - why taking a talent with certain purpose and then refusing to use it that way?

@Lukash369 lol this Paladins Guru site doesn't have today's matches played, lol.

As for the 3rd example, look at that Skye, her talent and her healing done after the match? What was the point of her taking it if she didn't use it?

The last match: when a tank deals MORE damage than any damage hero in your team - that's not okay. And I've player like 4-5 matches today in ranked: they didn't get into profile page? lol.

This ranked system is garbage, players instalocking damage and flank heroes, but doing 0 damage and 0 kills.

They instalock support and then claim they go damage and they don't care about healing leaving your team in a nonsense way of instant losing.

Once I had skye picking her Smoke Screen healing talent ending up with only 10k healing for a 15-20 minutes match.

The sad part is that the report system is useless. You report them for ruining matches on purpose and not playing their roles when we need specific roles and compositions, but they still keep doing that.

I am just thinking about going afk in every match when I see a guaranteed loss after the very first round. Because noone cares about winning even in ranked.

You tryhard in casual matches but you get flamed for that because "that's not a ranked match and if you want a win, you should go and play ranked", but when you go into ranked, you can't win simply because you feel like being matched with bots and animals vs actual real players.

@DaddyOoker said in Why do I keep being matched with bots?:

OK, you got hit with one of the common problems. Good you tried to come back. This particular problem happens more often than you think then add a large number of player with crappy wifi.

Yeah, you are right probably. I need to calm down

@DaddyOoker my internet was down but when I came back online, I've managed to message all affected teammates and apologize for that.

Still, I've left the match only once and I never rage quit or staff. Other times I play, teammates are afking at base while jumping, not picking items and other similar things. And this happens on regular basis like EVERY day.

This doesn't explain why I keep getting matched with bots including ranked.
