I'm in Iron 1 (no I'm not a smurf, I'm just dogshit at the game ;-;) and I've encountered several instances where I would have 4 bots on my team and 4 or more on the other team IN A COMPETITIVE GAME. I reported them all, but this is just not okay. I've attached some screenshots as evidence, but I made sure to leave out names to keep my post compliant with rule 13.

Proof that it was a competitive game

More proof. 13*5=65 so this means I got all 5 kills every time (and that's not really possible for a non-bot team)

Come on, guys. Who on earth would waste their life on bots like this. I am not a software engineer so I honestly have no idea how this could be fixed, but I hope that it could be done at some point. Maybe it could detect repeated patterns or detect when the player never travels more than 20-40 meters from their spawn-in point? These bots are just destroying my motivation to play, and I really don't want that. I wake up early JUST for a morning Valorant game before class, and there's a chance that I'll end up in this game?

I love Valorant and I don't want to see the game go downhill. I've had this "bot problem" several other times, but I didn't think to screenshot and post here. Has this happened in other Elo rankings? Has anyone else here in the community experienced this? I don't want to post the video clips I've got HERE, because of rule 13, but if you DM me and want more proof I'd be happy to send them.
