EvieCry Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Hello, in the last ~15 arena 1vs1 matches I've played vs destroyers. Nothing else, ONLY destroyers, this is unreal. I'm an assassin and I find it so annoying playing against them. , Is there any setting that I might have chosen to be matched only against them or am I so unlucky? Is it maybe a bug? Because 15 games in a row seems to be too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rimgar Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Destroyers botting most likely,i had the same problem last night.they always know were you are. If they seemed to always hit you the moment you were in range,it's botting.If not,they were actual players just doing arena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nachtdrache Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 You can also tell they're bots because when they're CC'd they will still face you. I think I played 20+ destroyer bots which made getting my lvl 37 assassin from 1300-1700 really easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't spin but will follow you while stealthed. Just go with a perma stealth build and use the stun/ani-cancel into web tactic. They'll also run right over any land mines you place so you can kite them into that easily enough. Don't use decoy within grabbing distance or he will grab you everytime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rimgar Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 They always knocked me out of stealth when i got in range,couldn't re-stealth.anyway,it was an uphill battle for me,wish i would face other classes too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're incredibly predictable, which makes for free counter/dodge combos for days, and since they never properly defend against you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EverybodyLovesPenguins Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 based on experience.. against a smart and really good sin my des has no chance.. he'll just perma stealth, web and poison til' the match ends. last patch i couldn't get to plat because all I face were sins, blade cancer and kfm at the 1800+ ranking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beowolf Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Bots are dumb as all hell. In more than one way. And yeah, it's not that you're unlucky. I think anyone from bronze to even high gold now face a large percentage of bots. Like 25-50% of 1v1s. If you're in gold, you can recognize them before the match because their names are either complete gibberish or 2 completely random English words like "Newspaper Tomato" (not n&s, just an example). It cheapens the pvp experience is dumb as fck. But if you have to face them, just know that your winrate (should) skyrocket against these foos. On my summoner alt, I must have had a 0-50 streak vs these bastards, and in the last 3 days have a ten game winstreak vs them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stack poison, swiftstep and cyclone sweep for knockdown. 3 points into Shadow Slash for knockdown, use your Q, laugh even more. What? They are spinning? Don't attack them. Just throw daggers and poison bombs. Make them paranoid. Make them spin, make them waste focus. Then just stun with lightning rod/LMB and kill him. What? Fury? Smoke Bomb with 10 sec stealth is your panic key. If you lose HP against destroyer, you should quit this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ango Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 So they're bots lol It certainly explains a lot. I was wondering about the huge influx of suicidal destroyers in the arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kutsuu Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 The bots all do the same moves/rotations, will blow their F immediately on the first daze, and tab immediately on the first stun. It's really really easy to get their CC breaks out and combo them down. On KFM I go blue buff, let them tab a triple kick, then do a full 3rf (Z > V > X) and they are dead. BM I let them tab a parry stun then blade call combo them down. Not sure on other classes but you should be able to beat them very easily knowing how they behave.
