Especially when you play a Duelist, her lines are pure gold. I like women that live in harmony with their desires.

I think this is being blown a little bit out of proportion. Sure there are bots, but to say its an epidemic or even remotely a small percentage of the population is ridiculous to the point of absurdity. I am typically very critical of GGG especially with regards to the balance and constant nerfing, but GGG has done a pretty good job banning against hacks and bots.

As far as I have seen/heard a few fringe bots exist and there is the AutoHotkey Autologout bullshit which will probably never go away though...because lets be honest its autohotkey.

Note the quotes around epidemic in the title ;)

Only noticed because I've noticed on a much greater scale than in past leagues.

As Chris said, it's clearly not a major problem but evidence would suggest that the number of bots is growing right now.

I'm Sure Chris is working on banning the bots..... right?

I'd give them mirrors with scripts of a vaal orb and SSF them before banning :)

I'm evil I know :(

But still looks ugly ingame , and the sheer visual volume of cheating this league is major a turn off to newer , time constrained and economically struggling players.

What a bunch of bologna.

"Major turn off" for new players. Yeah, because that's all new players are looking out for and see all the time are bots running rampant! Give me a break! That's the last thing a new player cares about.

Another 1st world nonssf problems

Lol I have seen these very characteristic groups of rag 35 lvl witches in merci for ages.
