“High skill” just means High AI cooperation

No matter what i do some fights the AI will just sit back on 2 bars and never throw their specials, wasting time and eventually when they have enough power for an L3 after having me backed in the corner for what feels like hours they instantly want to throw their specials

Or when i try to play Kitty the AI suddenly becomes ultra passive holding block and waiting.

When i want to play Valkyrie the AI becomes an agressive powerhouse, refusing to block all fight no matter the cost.

Playing quicksilver? well i’m not going to throw a single special all fight, goodbye debuffs

Intercepting me? well i’ll just dash in quicker than you. Light intercepting? i’ll just delay dashing in by a quarter of a second so you whiff and i can punish.

there have always been tricky AIs, but it seems every day now it gets worse, and it makes playing certain champions a nightmare. at least half the fights i enter across the contest have some form of annoying AI interaction, whether it’s holding onto a special, turtling up completely, or becoming an absolute intercepting unit.

I wonder if this is getting worse for others, or if this is a sign from kabam jesus to just delete the game and find something else to play.

    All of the above probably? Having played with different level accounts I can say from experience the AI cheats the same against all of them. Missed blocks, non existent Parries, champs moving forward/backward on their own, sped up animations, SP activations through attacks, increased ability to intercept as never before - among many things. All without regular compensation anymore from Kabam. Not to mention taking the Revive farming out of the game, under false pretenses, to at least ease the pain of “illegal” AI caused defeats…

    I can’t speak on the AI versus “Whale” accounts, as I’ve been FTP after my first 2 years playing this game - so maybe it doesn’t act up as much depending on how much one pays in to the game? I seriously don’t think or believe Kabam is that devious - that’s anime evil level stuff and usually unrealistic…but I couldn’t say and am definitely not going to find out if the AI doesn’t learn to play fair.

    That is to say, even at a lower level account (i.e. Level 30)…once I have shown the ability to intercept, parry, parry heavy, etc…the game eventually compensates for that “skill”.
