I don’t want to play against bots so I will concede every game against your bots Blizz and if I can’t rank oh well.

Unfortunately, if you keep conceding to bots, you will probably see more bots.

But I thought Blizz bots are exactly what people wanted to play against. They want to que ladder with nonfunctional super greedy decks and have pushover opponents so they can skip turns 1-9.

This incentivizes people to continue botting. Also, bots play worse than people. If anything it should be looked at as an easier win. I will say though that people who bot should get their accounts permabanned, and Blizzard I’d imagine is on the same boat, but it’s less about what we want and what they can logistically do about the issue.
Just play through the bots and collect easier wins. It might honestly help your climb to diamond or legend, whichever your goal is.
These bots are what blizzard said the player wants. None of the players have ever, before or after the fact, said they’d rather face bots than a long queue. The bots were not actually made for the sake of the players.

I once conceded about 20 games in a row upon seeing a bot.
Every single game was a bot until I gave up and killed it. Pretty sure all the concedes/losses versus bots do nothing to your match making rating either.
I get plat every month but so tired of bots. So I am done will only play for quests and screw ranking until they remove them.

there were complains about new players facing more experienced players or p’layers with optimized decks way too soon
since blizzard cant force new players to play at all times so all well have a chance to match up agaisnt each other…
they added bots
these bots do shorten queues and are a protection for new players agaisnt players with smurf accounts (so in find it funny when i see someone who actually admits doing this complaining about being matched vs bots on his new smurf account )

Its a big club and yer in it.
You are full of horse dung. My wife just started a new account and she is rank 35 and already playing against T1 decks that she has no hope of winning. She also has played more of these people then bots.
When I play my main account leveling up to plat all I play 75% of the time is bots –
you told us you are tanking your mmr by conceding …that increases the chances youll be matched vs bots
My belief Is that conceding affects your rating differently from losing, years(a decade?) I conceded 60 times and played the same guy on the 2nd and 59th game.
That took 2 hours. I don’t think I would be willing to lose 60 game in a rows, Worst case 30 hours?
But I have never seen a player I recognised as a bot
Nope, conceding definitely counts the same as any other loss for rating. A lot of ranked games that aren’t insta-concedes for either side still end by concede rather than by lethal or alternate wincon. If it was really long ago, it was likely back when rank rather than mmr determined matchmaking and that opponent was still at that rank just as you were.
Bots are absolutely fantastic to do achievements against. They will never concede and they play cards immediately. They are also great to climb against in general, but the more aggro ones do sometimes get on a roll super early and just crush you.
I’m genuinely ok playing against bots as I do players now.
This is the Internet, srn. There’s at least one person who has said literally anything.
