So I disagree with most of everything you said. But I do agree if the actual code writers ran the bot and watched it, it would be a lot better. But i disagree with the whole keeping the winrate low so blizzard won't do anything. The thing you have to understand is, blizzard is a money making machine. As long as retarded kids keep buying packs, they won't do shit, because they don't have to. They don't care for the players or anyone else, as long as they bring home the bacon they won't do anything that isn't required to keep their jobs. If they had one competent employee do some research on bots, the whole thing would be canned overnight. That's why it isn't because blizzard is lazy and it doesn't care. As for the winrate and bot ai fucking up. I don't think its intentional. It's accidental. As for why the ai is so bad? same reason why blizzard doesn't ban bots, but for the buddy staff. As long as the owners get their 500 sign ups a month, everything is fine. As long as the devs get paid, everything is fine. Who gives two shits about winrate dropping 40%? Not the buddy staff, no blizzard, not hearthstone players. Just us HB botters, and were too small of a niche to give a shit over. So as long as everyone is getting paid, and no one is worrying about anything, progress will be slow and the bot is going to suck. Only when people start panicking and worrying will there be change with godlike legendary bot. Oh well whatever. I guess you can always go farm vs brain-dead children at rank 20 with auto concede on. Then brag about your 90% winrate in the guides section.
