Doom Bots Are Back!
Prepare for a challenge! Doom Bots return with Patch 25.17 on August 27th. This time, Riot has cranked up the difficulty with new mechanics and even more overpowered AI champions. Survive for 15 minutes against the cursed bots, then face Doom Boss Veigar in a final showdown.
Top Doom Bots Champions
Choosing the right champion is crucial. Here's a quick tier list:
- S+ Tier: Volibear, Mordekaiser, Jinx, Viego, Darius
- S Tier: (Implied: Strong and Reliable Picks)
- A Tier: (Implied: Solid but Situational)
Bruisers, juggernauts, and scaling carries are favored in the Doom Bots meta. Volibear, Mordekaiser, Jinx, Viego, and Darius are excellent choices for tackling Veigar and his army.
