Just had a huge banwave hit NA, not sure about EU, but googled around to the botting forums I can find and sure enough they are on fire with people getting banned. Looks to be alot of accounts so far!
Yeah i was about to post that, watching the bot forums, looks like its only 3 month ban :( O well, thats three months of meta shift, so maybe the bots will be playing poorly again when they come back.
Good to ban some bot users around. But as long as the game mechanism doesn't change, botting is always possible. Well, unless Blizzard is going introduce some seriously anti-botting effects in the new cards.

3 months... Perma man! The gold and achievements they got are insane and would easily tide theM over for 3 months.
If you're happy and you know it... well that's good :)
Won't this just mean they all just make new accounts? It's not like their botting programs are limited to one account I'm sure.

Why only a 2/3-month and not a perm ban?? Scum should be nuked for good.
What exactly is this botting program and how do you know ur opponent is using it?
Time is precious. Waste it wisely. Legend Seasons: 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17
Current deck: Not playing much anymore
Highest rank: legend rank 9 Highest finish: legend rank 103 Infinite Arena Player
The ban isn't permanent huh?? Let me create 10 bot accounts really quick and sell them later. No lose situation still for bots.
I played Hunter before it was cool.
Hey guys,
We already have a thread open for discussing botting in Hearthstone. The conversation of the recent ban wave should be continued there.
