Whats the best hero to rush through the easiest ai only game. No other players.
For me, I always default to either probe or zarya.
Probe is just overall godlike in pve and bots just stand in the warp rifts as well as being able to outrange core.
Zarya just kills towers and forts really really quickly. Just make sure you ping the healer bot to fallow you.
My guess would be Hammer, but I haven’t played a full AI match on the easiest mode before, so that is just a guess.

I think hammer makes a lot of semse but in my experience, shes just not the fastest pusher and fighting core can be difficult sense theres much less room to avoid the minion waves which hammer does not clear quickly.
Its basically a pve race to the core. The bots are so dumb that they will often wont attack you and they rarely if ever use abilities. Sometimes even when your the only target.

Anyone that can mow through AI heroes and keep up their health through sustain. Like, D.Va, Gazlowe, and Hogger. Those are the heroes I can wreck bots with endlessly. Heroes without sustain need the healer on follow to stay in it, and the bots are absolutely braindead if they’re pinged.
Then again, I also maximize XP when I play AI. So, I prefer attrition-style over speed. I play AI to kill time and blow up bots for twenty minutes.

Usually when I play vs AI, it is either with friends, or because I have the Curse of the Win 3 Games quest, and got tired of getting my butt handed to me in all of the PvP modes. I have no idea what it is about that quest, but it is my kryptonite.
I usually play a hero I suck at to see if I can learn to suck less, or I play something that can just destroy bots, mercs, and objectives, such as Malthael or Greymane.
But I usually play in co-op mode rather than full AI, just because I tend to be a social animal, even in bot matches.
- take Hammer
- Get around towers and hit directly at the fort, then keep
- If it’s not accessible by goind around, hit 1 tower + wall, enter through the hole, and Z your way to safety
- Profit
Take note that AI heroes are so bad, they won’t try to attack you, you can just knock them away and they’ll leave.
Also, use a place where the minions won’t try to get you. They can damage quite hard over time with this strat.
Usually wins games in 5 minutes top.
Sometimes 3 minutes on good maps for the strategy.
The fastest would probably be Xul. If left uninterrupted, I don’t think anybody could outrace him.
If bots do interrupt you, I’d maybe go with Sonya or Illidan oddly enough.

If im playing the long game, i like to play infinitely stacking heroes 
If you’re trying to complete daily quests faster you should pick split pushers. Probius obviously comes to mind since he has ludicrous amount of pve damage. I would say Zagara is a good top contender too because she can just let her summons tank tower shots and the only problem you’ll have is probably Mana which s why you always pick Nydus
Rolls Chen bot
Farms up 3k stacks of Protector of Auir.
Yes. Good.

Sylvanas. Although she can’t keep her trait up 100%, she still pushes better than hammer and also has great pvp (or AI in this case) power. She can take Mercenary Queen, grab a camp and take structures very quickly even vs Elite. Alternatively she can take possession maker her own minions and do the same.

TLV. Because easy soaking
Hammer is the easiest to cheese with.
Back in the day there was afk gold farming with Abathur but that got patched, now you need to actually bot.
Hammer is easiest and takes zero effort.
Sylvanas is fastest thanks to Black Arrows completely shutting down a fort or keep and the associated towers while pushing against the bots.
Assuming you just want to end the match asap.
Used to be very easy with Sonya as she could instantly solo boss at 3 mins then end with it, but now that boss spawns at 5 minutes I’m not sure she is a fast ender for AI. And not every map has a boss.
