A Human Win Against Bots

Lately on a particularly ugly day of bickering on Mav Chat on Splinterlands discord, I have been told (I have told multiple times at multiple places by 3-4 morons) that humans can't win against a bot while playing Splinterlands. I agree! Those morons are right. A human can never consistently win against an artificial intelligence enable bots. This is a fact.

However:

A human can win once!

Since this is my blog, and @jayemm who is my scholar playing the account th13-fu, I can celebrate this win as many times as I want and as loudly as I want! There is not a damn thing those morons can do about it :)

I want to be clear: I have no problem with bots. I think bots could be necessary for the game, and perhaps it is not easy to identify bots. This is not an argument.

I do have a problem with humans abusing the reward pool using a bot!

My Player

You guys don't know much about Jay. He is the Magician from Manila! He doesn't talk much. But that quiet kids is an ace player in Gold league. The only reason they can't do better at higher leagues is because they don't have a card deck that they can afford.

But here is the kicker for you botter doing brawl & tournaments:

I can afford many max decks :)

I will buy those decks as the price drops, and I will have top human players play them. My plan is to surround the bots in both leaderboards and tournaments. When you are surrounded, the bot owners will begin to find the heat. I will crank up the heat :)

Trash Talk

Aggy always said that he loves trash talks between players and guilds. I do as well. I wish we had a trash talk channel integrated within the game. Yeah, I know, be careful what you wish for! Yeah maybe not. In our kingdom of glory discord channel we do have a trash talk channel that is used quite a bit. It is all fun and game between friendly users. So there you have it. I have a human win again bots in one of the toughest tournaments.

Deal with it :)

I will play this game called Splinterlands when the time comes. At the moment, I'm just trying to learn what the game is like from the posts you have made.

Cool post. Like it. But it is as you say, you need good leveled up cards to win against bots.

They claim:

  1. It is good for the economy (its not)
  2. It is not possible to identify them (we can, not every single one)
  3. Banning known bot account as a desciplinary action is bad for the chain and game (its not, termporary banning is perfectly acceptable)

That is very poignant.
I must be as diligent as JAY!

Well, now isn't that one of the best feelings in the world, dada?

When we come up against players who are using such BOT/AI technology in the FPS realm, 8 out of 10 times we end up failing. BUT, and that's a big but, when we do pull through and win against those "cheaters", we then realize that the game is now quite easily in our hands.

Sometimes these players even have the audacity to talk back, talk trash lol. Instead of relying on skill, they're using "hacks" that do most of the work for them, while they just sit back and chill. Some of these players are delusional, thinking that they're actually good; whereas they have never put in the time to improve their skillset or to actually learn the game and its mechanics.

You really can't win as a solo against such players either, teamwork makes the dream work in such scenarios. And so far we've faced so many cheaters, of so many types, we have now somewhat become immune. We don't run and retreat anymore, instead we face them, and most of the time we actually end up beating them nowadays.

After the taste of victory, there's a huge flood of emotions; as we, the adept, secure our win, and the cheaters end up questioning their choices. Now that's an irreplaceable feeling, you just can't put a price on it.

At hive mostly I fight a losing battle, I know it, and my opponents know it. It is getting similar at SL as well. I take a lot of heat for doing that. Point I could care less, and not worry about it. I can easily have the best bot available. Hey I can get that for free! :)

But I don't. By choice.

But I don't. By choice.

That's what makes the difference. I see a lot of players say the same "if others are doing it, then why can't I?"

My answer is simple, we don't rely on such mechanics because it's cowardly. And not only is it unfair and "artificial", it also ruins the game for 90% of the player base who actually believe in fair and skillful play.

Thank you. We will keep on trying. I talk with the bot makers too. Funny, that most of them are very nice individuals. They care for the game too, but just viewing it from a different angle.

I have been talking with them to focus on the fact that the game is first, and bot is later. If there is no game, there is no bot to play it :)
