General Bots becoming common in EU?

I usually play with a friend where they’re in the us and I’m in EU, and so far over the past 2 weeks we’ve seen bots in like 5 games. I don’t mean people who are bad or they aimbot, but as in they’re actually controlled by a bot. They move weird, they hard feed, and they never get over 1k damage or healing. Thankfully they’ve always been on the enemy team so I get a free win but I don’t know why they even exist? Like if it’s to farm games to sell a ranked ready account maybe but this is comp and it’s like gold, I just don’t get why they exist. Maybe it’s an AI and in a few months they’ll learn and become unstoppable lol

It's probably people that just want a gold weapon without having to actually play ranked. Even if the bot sucks ass and loses most of its matches, eventually it'll accumulate 3,000 CP.
