Rogue bots in diamond is a PROBLEM

on my grind from diamond 10-5 i have faced 12 rogue mech bots(literal bots) i faced 8 in a row and each and every one of them have a perfect curve and starting hand. How is this possible? every bot curves out spyder on turn 3?

That’s because bots are programmed to keep certain cards in the mulligan. I tried one ranked match myself tonight and ran into a Mech Rogue bot at Daimond 4 full stars. A shame it’s how I got Diamond 3 but /shrugs. They must be frantically farming to try and get ready to sell for expansion launch.

This is an insane conspiracy theory. Bots that would do that can only be run by Blizzard and they obviously don’t “need gold” at Blizzard.

You effectively say that bots HACK THE BLIZZARD SERVERS lol…

Wow, you’re pretty un-educated about how good some bots can be for games huh? lol. I’m the guy who brought attention to Blizzard bots, and I certainly know people bot Hearthstone too. Right now, it’s bad because of the chance these farmers can get a few dollars selling cheap accounts for the new expansion.

Do you play Mech Rogue an find it offensive that bots play the deck or something lol?

The issue for me is less that they curve in some inexplicable way, it’s A) that they exist at all. And B) that they all have identical decks.

Just knowing that you have a high chance of facing off against yet another bot with the same deck that plays it the same way sucks the fun right out of the game. Same issue as when it was DK bots a little while ago.

Three in a row this morning. Same pattern. Same names. Report them all. Nothing happens with it. I really think that Blizzard does not care. They pretend to but they don’t

This morning I played 8 games and faced 8 bots. 6 DK bots, 2 mech rogue bots. D5-D3. Reported them all, but I’m doubtful it does any good.

Isn’t the Chinese server reopening these days - perhaps that will fix the bot problem.

Spyder on turn 3 is NOT a perfect curve for a mech rogue.

It’s only stealthed for 1 turn. Perfect curve on turn 3 is coining a Scourge Illusionist or playing Invent-o-Matic with a stealth magnetizer.

Against mech rogues, assume early board control and you’re gucci

Blizzard won’t get rid of bots otherwise their game will die. Stop give them money if want to pressure blizzard which we all know you folks will continue to give Blizzard money.

Because the game is rigged it is as simply as that… I had the same thing happen cept mine was D5 to D1 and it is to KEEP you from getting to Legend.

You cant deal with the rogue bots i think the problem is you

You’re missing the point. It’s not that they’re hard to deal with. They’re a pretty simple deck to counter. There’s just so damned many of them. I didn’t come here to play a single player game and that’s what it feels like when you’re just matched up against bots playing the same two decks all day

I’m just speaking for myself but right now I just get my dailies done and then I move on to something more interesting to do. But I doubt I’m the only person that feels this way. And when you get too many of your players with this mindset about your game, you’re in trouble as a studio

I haven’t been past platinum before this month (so I never noticed the transition from free to play decks to “dust” decks like Mimiron’s Machinations etc.). Where are the bots geting the dust to build that mech rogue deck, or are we assuming that there’s a reserve of dormant accts that they’re reactivating specifically to get that free deck? (or do they just give every new acct a free recipe deck now?)

Why do all the bots play Mimiron’s Machinations, and none play Wishing for a Win?

Same question for priest bots. (why are they all playing Astral Array, and none playing Bottled Magic, even though the two recipes are mostly identical? if they’re crafted decks, why wouldn’t they at least swap Pip into the deck even if they didn’t want to deal with bottles etc.?)

yes meeting a bunch of mech rogues but i dont know for sure if they are bots. have to mess up my deck to stand a chance against it but makes me weaker against odyn warrior.

Either Blizzard really got hacked, or they lost their humanity. Filling their game with bots like soulless greedy Monsters. Another reason why Gods Judgement is coming.

Bots in Hearthstone? nah, this is just a conspiracy theory…
