Recently I’ve been noticing very obvious signs of going against AI or Bot accounts in standard. I’m making this thread to essentially share experiences that can make it more obvious when going against opponents that may be using this in your future games.
For my more recent experience, and in my opinion hands down the most popular, are token druids. The deck archetype is more than likely the easiest to pilot and can be farmed for easy wins. Usually the base skinned Malfurion that never concedes is a big giveaway [0 cards in hand and staying at 1hp for multiple turns have been tested in multiple games against this variant.]
Call me ignorant, but I haven’t noticed it much in any other expansion until recently. Just thought I’d share
It's been a bigger problem since this expansion launched than at any other point in time. Stopped seeing them after a while then encountered them again in legend (around rank 7k). Since the monthly reset I've played against a dozen bots. Very annoying and the updated reporting tool doesn't seem to make a difference.
I've noticed this as well. Seems obvious when each minion attacks and then the next one does after exactly the same amount of time. Druid is definitely the most common but I've seen this with Warlock as well.
Blizzard added a way to report your last opponent. I suggest you use it when you see signs of botting.
as far as we can tell like most report functions in games this one does not work. or they are going to wait a certain amount of weeks/months to do a big ban wave.
I'm glad there is, because I utilize it any time I see signs of it and I encourage everyone else to do so. Only issue is there's no certainty (at least that I'm aware of?) of whether or not the report was acted upon, like a notification that Overwatch or League would give you after some time, and that may be the main reason why people think the report system isn't acting on anything especially with the high volume.
Game is shit so im ok that there are alot bots. Like seriously who wants to always spend money and do those fucking absurd daily quest ? Only hardcore addicts with no real life. I prefer pokemon unite right now, which is 10 times less pay 2 win and still annoys me

Actually, the report function in the game does indeed work. For example, I have seen firsthand people whose accounts have been silenced for periods of time for flaming (after being reported) and similar. So, report or not, it's up to you - but it definitely has a effect. You just dont get told about it.
I've come up against a lot of bots recently between D10 and D2. They act really slowly, they miss attacking face, make ridiculous errors, it's not just bad play. In any case, I use the report function and hope it gets investigated. Not much more you can do.
I suggest just using that and then letting blizzard sort it out.

Warriors are funny bots. They always just hover over the HP waiting to use it. Every turn. First thing they do is slam armor up and move on.
Wow, people complaining even about free wins nowadays!..
they're not free. you're misinformed

I noticed those bots extremly in classic mode.
Mainly Zoolock and then Warriors which tech against those Zoolocks...

Back in my day, they had smarter bots. If you had lethal on board at the end of their turn, they would concede.

LUL
6 bots in a row in rank 20.
and when I dueled a human he was using the best net deck ever, so frustrating.
I prefer bots...they use the same cards, the ai is dumb, I always win and free wins.
go face!
