Overwatch 2 players are experiencing an influx of bot accounts that are ruining matches and making the game unplayable. These bots exhibit strange movement, feed excessively, and have low damage and healing stats. Some players have encountered full five-stack bot teams. It is speculated that the bots are farming accounts or gaining access to ranked play. The issue has not been addressed by the developers yet.
League of Legends is adding a new Emerald rank between Platinum and Diamond and overhauling its ranked system to make it easier for players to hit high ranks. Promo games are being removed, and placement games are being halved to only five. The changes aim to push players stuck in Silver and Gold into higher ranks while keeping Diamond and above at a fairly low population. Riot devs believe that ranks are "too skewed toward the lower end of the spectrum" and that the changes will more accurately reflect the skill level of individual players within those ranks.
