Bots in wild playing aggro

I was about to try the combination of DK unholy with blood, when again pirate rogue bots attacked, this time i decided to save one game, semi-complete, to show what i was talking about in other threads and how i almost lose at the hands of a bot,
but if you don’t want to see it, the more relevant part is in the last 3 minutes of the video,
from minute 8, notice how doesn’t give up until there is no lethal on the board…

yes, there are bots in Wild, and they are getting pretty high. I’m facing lots of Even Shaman bots at around 900 Legend in wild.

Yeah i already had suspicions of them … i guess ill start reporting people, bots break the immersion and the playable experience… but what if they are from blizzard itself :rofl:

Blizzard DOES use bots. Theman already provided thorough evidence of this in another thread.

I’m honestly not seeing why you think your opponent in this game was a bot. The bots I’ve run into don’t play anything like this. And do bots actually concede ever?

I have been playing classic lately and silver through gold are all bots. I’m in gold so don’t know past that. I’m likely not getting much further but can absolutely confirm through gold it’s virtually all bots.

Bronze not so much because people will dabble in Bronze. Once I hit silver it was all bots.

Pirate Rogue is so easy to pilot and vomit cards. Bots are perfect for that. Fast game all day long and good win rate.

I report them but does it change anythin at all? Doubtful…

The few bots I have seen in wild ONLY target there hero power and / or portraits with the exact same delay. They never concede, never use any cards.

This is clearly not a bot. Your opponent could be waiting for you to be disconnected from the game and take the win? I don’t know, there are so many reasons.

But I get it. Nowadays if your opponent play something you don’t like / is better / whatever, it’s a bot!!

I can’t imagine the absurd amount of reports Blizzard should receive every day for all games. That would be hilarious.

If there weren’t bots in Wild, you wouldn’t have anyone to fight.

That’s so incredibly false I find it hard to believe you even believed it yourself as you typed it.

For the skeptics that nothing is enough, it seems that the youtuber Dane has even discovered a way to identify the bots, and how the bot program crashes with certain cards:

The Pirate Rogue bot I’ve seen does not. However, the Even Shaman was always does, but only after ending its turn and seeing there is lethal.

So the Even Shaman bot will play its entire turn, even though it’s clear they will be dead (I often have a full board, they have no cards in hand, draw a card, play hero power, play card, end turn) and IMMEDIATELY after they hit end turn the concede animation goes off. There’s no hesitation. It’s like clockwork.

Classic is FILLED with bots. So much so, that someone in my FB Hearthstone community decided to go to Classic and test it out. The theory is that if they were most bots, it would be easy to rank up.

He said upon going to Classic he faced 2-3 real players, then it was all bots after that (with names like fhasdfhdkd for every single opponent)

He posted his results:

lol this video is just proof of the botting problem.

I see SO many Rogue and Shaman bots that I’m now confident I can just built an anti-bot deck like this and make it to legend just by beating bots.

Can confirm. The names are hilariously obvious too.

Classic is very easy to level with zoo lock because of it. I do my 5 games quest and not much more but the blatant botting is obvious. The moves are almost all the same as are the decks using the exact same minions that the accepted net deck often times doesn’t have.
