A fight against AI in BGs would be the easiest fight on the planet and a guaranteed win. How do you program AI so it knows that if you place Hulkling on defense it has to use Rintrah and not Future Ant Man? How do you program AI so it knows that if you place Future Ant Man on defense it's easier if it uses Hulkling rather than Rintrah?
You see the problem now? You have a brain, AI doesn't, and unfortunately for AI that is how you win a BGs match using your brain, not just by playing the game with any champ you want. Maybe we can consider this in 20 years once AI actually surpasses human intelligence but for now, it's a no lol.
This creates its own problems where people will just create decks with nuke attackers that counter the annoying defenders and would change the whole dynamic of BGs. At that point, you're just playing a glorified version of Arena.
Let me give you an example here in case this isn't clear enough, let's pretend this match right here:
Was against IT. How do you program IT so that it knows that it shouldn't place Korg on defense if I drafted Bishop cause it's basically a free round for me? Is that even possible? How can you even emulate human intelligence at that level in a video game when we haven't even been able to do that with the actual advanced AI that currently exists.
As @Pikolu said at that point it'd be easier to just allow CPU opponent to always draft the same overpowered defenders and attackers but then we could easily adapt by changing our decks and it would turn into a glorified version of Arena. It just doesn't make sense.
For simplicity lets rule out meta's as this is a changing variable and adds complexity
If you just take into account the champion pool and their strength against the rest of the champion pool you have a lookup table that all 30 of the champs "IT" has in his/her battle deck on the left hand side of the table. On the top of the table you would have every other champ for A-Z. In each element of the array/table you would rank them from 1-230 (or however many champs are in the game) depending on how well they do on defence against other champions 1 being the best defender ~230 being the worst defender.
Now lets use your example above for selecting a defender. The program will search through the champs that "IT" has on it's deck and compare them to each champion on your team, every time it checks it evaluate whether the value of its defence is worse then the last champ it evaluate and stores this value as it ranking. Every champ on "IT's" team then has a score of its worst case scenario as a defender. The champ with the lowest score would then have the best chance of winning and be placed on defence.
A similar evaluation process could be done for offence
Now ranking the champions would be up to whoever builds the table and that would be a human decision, if you want that to be independent of human decision then yes you would have to develop AI to do this (not to get into how AI models are trained or the concept of Artificial General Intelligence)
I don't agree with the ai comments, and any trained ai model would easily be able to pass for a human in most bgs matches
However, if the aim of the mode is to have as much summors join in the mode and play it, it should be a possible consideration if there is not going to be a major overhaul
Then again, they might be waiting for 8.4 to drop. I can't speak for other people but me personally, I haven't been grinding BGs as hard as I used to due to rewards and store being outdated for an account like mine, however once Valiant is obtainable and easier to access for players like me I'm sure the number of players is going to skyrocket. I'm 100% sure there's loads of people waiting eagerly for 8.4 so they can get Paragon because they're too lazy to 100% Necropolis lol.
I spent the time to explain something to you and then your comment was basically, I still know nothing about it but its too hard so OP is bad, throwing all shade on something you know nothing about. Crazy
That wasn't my reply at all, you try to sound smart but you have trouble reading a paragraph and understanding what it says?
I said: if doing something like this is possible it's probably not viable for Kabam because they would have to invest too many resources and too much time, to which you agreed. In what part did I say OP is bad after you explained how something like this could work?
Lower accounts think that it's all rainbows and sunshine for valiant accounts and it's not. It's a competitive game mode where one slip up or passive AI can be the difference between a W and L. I lost count of how many matches I have lost when we both finished at 100% health but lost by 10 seconds or less.
Dude, I went on a 10 game losing streak in diamond 2 because I was in such a "lull" I was just making too many mistakes, or just not doing quote as good as my opponent in a match.
But apparently, according to anybody paragon and lower, we're just camping there because it's easy for variants to get to gc..
