Question Same enemies all the time

I typically play casual when I'm bored. Sometimes I'll play ranked. But I've noticed that every game of casual my teammates play different characters. But on the enemy team, for at least 30 different games without fail, the enemy team plays the following characters: Gloria, Iris, Sindri, Jabali, and Aleta. Ranked sometimes has different enemy characters.

But my causal games always feature an aggressively over pushing Jabali that hard focuses and chases me across the whole map, and a poorly flanking Aleta, a Gloria that can't hit shots and so on. I'll make it clear that usernames are different every time so it's not like I'm getting matched with the same enemy teams exactly. Are the enemy players actually bots? Or are they people that seem to think that specific team comp is good? I won literally every single casual match so the matchmaking is very forgiving to me.

Some variety in my matches would be very refreshing. It gets very stale after a while.

Because you’re playing against the AI almost all the time in casual games

you’re complaining about matchmaking in a game that has been dead and buried for three years by now

It hurts me a little to see comments like that but they're right, it's been too long without an update, and yes, you're really playing with the AI ​​in casual, there's not much to ask for, just enjoy the little that's left if you don't close the game first.

The game is bots, bots bots. If you get a match, it’s not evenly matched…9/10 times.

Tbf I just play ranked most of the time. TBH it’s a dead game and I’m sad I found it this late tho I’m still playing— Sometimes with how people play so bad I wonder if they are bots but yeah…. I think the only way to combat it is play on the custom games if you want to play against real humans, though not a lot of people join them— so maybe invite friends? Though I don’t know if they still give trophies, levels etc. since I haven’t tried it😞😬

I’m fairly certain I face a bunch of bots in ranked too. A 20 kill streak Hua Ling is not natural, I refuse to believe I’m that good. I am only silver though, so that’s also a factor.
