this has been going on for weeks im below gold in standard and all i see is bots about 50% blizzard bots 50% actual players botting you can tell there not blizzard bots cause you can report them how do you fix this i report them all day but still get them its annoying and the only way to play against real people for me is wild or duels i have seen maybe 3 real players ever since the new set came out on standard what is going on

I have now played 8 DK’s who have had the same identical first 3 turns. It is getting unbelievable at this point. The Replay winrates are completely fraudulent because of it honestly.

I doubt the bots are using a deck tracker.

There are so many DK that I started recording how many milliseconds a DK takes to guess the Suspicious Alchemist spell my mage picked. They all picked the card in about the same time. They are bots.

That would be completely simplistic to achieve. It amazes me how completely plausible scenarios are immediately shot down by the same group of people on this forum…hmmm

Why on earth would a bot use a deck tracker? I didn’t shoot it down because it’s impossible. I shot it down because it’s silly.
Are you saying bot users are intentionally skewing HSReplay stats?

I don’t understand why that wouldn’t be a plausible thing. Rigged draw bots that are centered around a class literally created for max monetization? What would be the benefit…
Do I think it’s absolutely happening, I don’t know. But I am closer to a yes than just completely shutting the entire scenario down.

There’s a difference between possible and plausible. Given there’s no incentive for the bot to use deck tracker, because it’s, ya know, a bot, it is implausible. Possible? Sure. But, that’s not a very reasonable standard to base one’s conclusions on.
I am getting the feeling, as you insist on this deck tracker manipulation by bots when there’s no good reason to think that, you want to be able to declare HSReplay stats invalid. AKA, motivated reasoning.

How are the hitters rigging their draw? Are all the bots from Blizzard?
Bingo.
He was mad a few months ago because stats said Paladin was good despite him being adamant it wasn’t because it has counters. Once the data didn’t match his narrative, the narrative since then has been that the data is wrong as if HSReplay has some hidden agenda to make Paladin look good when in reality it’s not.
It’s been hilarious to watch him keep pushing this idea.

It’s hilarious how comically stupid you are and how you just completely twist narratives for reactions. The stats are playing out EXACTLY how I said it would. I repeatedly stated then and even now that Pally has a very high floor but low ceiling. It’s great for climbing but once it gets into any decent skill brackets, the success rate plummets. It is currently tier 3 nearly tier 4 in legend at the moment. You are wrong AGAIN on this topic of discussion.
It is completely plausible for rigged bots to be inflating replay stats. An extremely large portion of the playerbase run trackers. Why would a company not have incentive to manipulate those stats? Especially when you could manipulate those stats into further revenue through focused sales and bundles.
I’m not saying it’s definitively happening but of course YOU want to take the hyperbolic route. It’s completely plausible but go ahead and shine that Blizz halo.
Please continue to tell me how wrong I am and how I:
Your projection of yourself onto me is quite comical and anyone can look at your post history and see how absurd you are in your claims. Everyone knows about your obsession with Paladin and obsession with lying about it.
Here’s proof so please stop embarrassing yourself.

Pally’s winrate plummets the higher you go into legend. If you made it past 15k legend, you might understand.
Bro actually posted top 1k legend info in the last image. It’s nowhere near tier 3, let alone 4, not even at top 1k.
Legend info covers 14k players above 15k legend too.
On the contrary. The numbers alone indicate an small portion use trackers
Blizzard can barely balance their own game and you’re here talking as if they are masterminds manipulating things behind the scenes, lmao.
Think a little, how does that work?

We have been speaking about Pure Pally, I see Pure Pally nowhere near top tier in high legend. As I have consistently stated, the higher you go, the winrate plummets.
No point in speaking about anything that even hints at Blizz manipulating their own game for gain. That’s immediately struck down as impossible here. They are the only company completely incapable of doing so…
But, you said tier 3, almost tier 4 in legend, and that has been disproven. Now, you aren’t acknowledging that and are moving onto a character assassination of Blizzard. Meanwhile, no is saying the company is anything but rotten. It doesn’t follow that therefore they’re maliciously manipulating their own game, though. That’s a non sequitur. Besides, what evidence do you have that whatever kind of manipulation you’re postulating results in increased revenue? I think you’re pulling that one from thin air.

Oh I just love when we use semantics as our only defense, makes me feel so warm and fuzzy. Please post the tier and winrate for pure Pally in top legend, thank you 
Point to the semantical argument you believe I am making.
You’re moving the goalpost now to both a higher rank (top legend from legend) and now Pure Paladin specifically. We were talking about paladin in general. It only became about Pure Paladin specifically in the comment you made before this one.
If you want to see screenshots, scroll up. Schyla was nice enough to post them.

I’m not moving a damn thing. He directly commented on my recent history of defending Pally, which has been solely based on Pure Pally and hope the winrate plummets the higher you rank.
You then decided to jump into the conversation like the groupie you are and hawked one sentence on what I said about tier 3 & 4. The overall point is that pure Pally in top legend is sh1t, which it is. Now post the pure Pally top legend stats or keep it tf movin, thanks!
