Anyone else get absolutely blasted by the Bots at all times?

It never fails that the bot immediately targets me and stacks next to me regardless of the game, where I start, etc. It's like I have a magnet on me or something. WTF?

[finite crag]

I’ve had this happen. If I didn’t know better I’d think that the developers have set a bias against me, and the bots preferentially target my troops if they have a choice. I must have reported too many cheaters and been punished.

Players aren't punished via bots or dice etc. - only through warning, temporary suspension, permanent suspension / ban.
Doesn't matter if you report 1 person a week or 1000 people a week.

He was joking...

You’d be surprised

This is actually a working theory that a few of us have going. Expert bots seem to target one player more than others. I doubt it’s true between games but in a single game the bot will seem to prioritize attacking that one player more than the others. No idea why that would be the case

I feel like it just comes down to proximity. Also I’d imagine its built into the AI for the bonus taking bots to target bonuses with less troops in them 🤷🏻‍♂️
