I want to preface this as it is not a complaint, just something I want to point out. I actually enjoy the challenge this presents, but I can imagine it could be awfully frustrating to new players.
I play only against bots because I have never played a MOBA and don't want to ruin others games. But playing with other players against bots is too easy, just steamroll all the time. So I play bots against bots for more of a challenge.
Medium bots and hard bots are easy. But if you do easy bots and get put on Arch Mother's side in particular, it becomes insanely difficult. And I think I know why.
I think easy bots private match mode was coded assuming you would be on Hidden King's side, since you used to always be on his side. So it made the bots on Arch Mother's side easy for you to kill, and maybe even made the bots on Hidden King's side medium or hard to help you win easier.
But now as you can be on Arch Mother's side, this becomes a problem. Your teammate bots are insanely dumb and spend a lot of time running in circles. They often only get 1-3 kills per match and usually only with help from you. The enemy bots meanwhile seem to push in a more coordinated manner, get way more kills, and you end up spending the whole game on defense as they are constantly pushing into your base.
After testing many many bot games on different characters, I have no problem winning easily on medium or hard bots private match regardless of which side I am on. Additionally, in a custom game, playing easy bots on either side is fine because as you can see when you make a custom game, both sides are set to easy if that is what you choose.
It is only this insanely difficult on private match easy bots Arch Mother's side.
I tried looking up anything about this but it looks like no one else has noticed it? Maybe because not many people play easy bots. I only realised because I played a lot of easy bots with friends who don't want much challenge.
As I said I enjoy the challenge but maybe this should be fixed for the new players? Also it would be nice if in custom match we could set each sides bots separately so I could recreate the challenge this poses (easy bots against hard bots).
