Lots of Botting in Silver Ranked right now
and also these bots are often better than some human players on teams.
There’s your problem.

So I’ve played about 50 matches this tourney (last 3 days)… I’d say that there are normally 2-3 obvious bots across the 10 players in most matches.
Aside from never talking, usually appearing offline, not coordinating with others, and never marking/taking marked targets, they react slowly (which is their most obvious tell). As an example, if you cap a point and about 2 seconds after the point swaps you have 2 teammates running straight there, and when they change they just start running for the next non-friendly point, they might be bots. Also they get “lock on” when fighting, and chase their enemy target all around, regardless of on/off point. If you are lucky enough to get a bot or 2 chasing you, you can kite between points and take them out of the game, making it easy for the rest of your team to win.
Frustrating for 2 reasons: those that actually play the game don’t like teammates that aren’t actually players, and also these bots are often better than some human players on teams.
I (and others) have been reporting them as we notice them, but there are alot of them in Silver right now.
