Using botted accounts to gain an advantage [Delete if not relevant - more exploit than bug]

I saw that the highest player-damage game of all time was recently set. This appears to be a combination of botting and smurfing

Looking around some profiles and many similar matches, it seems that there are groups of 3 stack smurfs who load into games with the remaining 3 players being bots owned/controlled by them.

Every match they sort lanes into 1 player and 1 bot combinations, then the bots all kill themselves immediately before reaching the lane. After re-spawning, the bots then randomly move about in spawn, spam abilities, and random chat messages - likely to avoid AFK. The purpose is to give the 3 real smurf players a solo lane every game to get ahead on souls.

They then proceed to stomp the lower ranked players each game, stall the match while farming, then buy loads of goose eggs, and after a few hours or so, they end up with >100% CDR, 40,000+ HP, etc

Example match (Abrams >1 million player dmg): 68026902
The above match is pre-goose egg channelling update, but this is still possible with the Egg instant consume bug mentioned in other posts

It seems the accounts they use cycle between being the AFK bots and the smurf egg abuse players
