When I'm playing a match of me + 4 medium bots against 5 medium bots, I'm occasionally the worst player on my team by a fair margin (e.g. as a carry, I died 3 times in the beginning of the match and got absolutely no kills the entire match). However, I never lose to medium bots. If all medium bots have a skill of "10" and I never lose to them, then I must have a skill of greater than "10". However, if out of my team I get the least kills, assists, gold/min, and xp/min, and the most deaths, then I'd think my skill would be less than "10".
The only two explanations I can think of for this are
- I contribute to the team a very large amount in ways other than killing the enemy team (unlikely, especially when I try to play as a hard carry.
- The "medium" bots on my team are better than the "medium" on the enemy team, e.g. the enemy has bots with "9" skill, but the bots on my team have "10" skill to more than balance out my mere "7" skill.
Is there another explanation?
