Does Kabam have anything to say on this, besides "working as intended"?

Just came across a video where the AI completely dexing your specials and lot more crazy stuff.
Video links including popular Youtubers for reference:

This is on top of weird things AI had been doing like reading my inputs and then reacting to them, Power Gaining champs being more defensive until they get to Sp3, punishing heavy attacks is not a thing now, AI intercepts with specials. As a player, moments like these can be frustrating.

    If we can do it, so can (and should) the AI.

    I believe there was a post about the AI and how it is interacting with the game engine to cause issues that are complicated to manage. In other words they are acutely aware of the problem and are working on it. If it was a neasy fix it would have already been done.

    >especially stupid dragon man and mordo in AQ for example

    Mordo is intended to play very defensive while his power gain is up (even mentioned in his info page), so use a power control or infuriate/taunt champ.
    Dragon man seems to be very defensive if he is above 2 bars of power and power gain buff is active, but he do launch his sp1s easily

    Kabam is refusing to acknowledge that AI is changed, well fair.



    They have a section on why it feels different in their post on the AI. Not quite sure where they’re claiming the AI is the same, or the paragraph screenshotted would probably say “it doesn’t”

    The ai was surpose to be fixed for this months content and it just has not

    You should re-read the original post, they have not said that the AI was supposed to be fixed. I'm afraid you've misunderstood it.

    They have managed to re-create the AI to act the exact same as it used to, and this is so they can more accurately fix the problems that come up. They haven't ever said that the AI is fixed yet

    The AI somehow feels worse this month but that might be a placebo effect in my mind with a new system potentially coming.

    This! give it at least a constant timer like after a period of time (say 5s) of no contact, the AI will throw SP. Im pretty sure a pleb like me will still get hit from time to time but atleast im certain that they will threw it instead of trying so hard to dance around and getting clapped either way.

    Still after all this the team has no acknowledgement or any word about their game and AI being broken. As if there are no issues and it is intended.

    Kabam seems quite silent on this QS dex xD lol

    These fights are same as they’ve always been. Seems a skill:counter issue not a ai issue. It’s their defensive as others have also said. You can’t just expect power gain champs to throw special the second they full because you got no counter lmao

    Ok, Kabam. If it walks like a duck, etc etc ... then isolate the latest added AQ node conditions, debuffs, strategies, (or whatever you call them) and remove them ... to see if AI (or playability) goes back to the level it should be for the given map. Using the same team i have used for several weeks, i see very noticeably heavier difficulty (esp aggression, hitting thru blocks, overtaking of attkr retreats) this week's AQ map 6. Same Mod's. Do away with node tactics that are fkg up 'perception of AI performance. Very EASY fix.

    I don't know about the other examples, but I believe this can be explained. Swedeah swiped from the left side of the screen and when he did, he briefly blocked. However, he wasn't really blocking but dashing forward and so the time of the block was so short, the animation didn't pop up. The block, however, still registered with the projectile, and it was perfectly timed to not only register as a block but as a parry, too. I'm sure players with more knowledge could explain this better, so feel free to correct me.
