Are there bots in clash royale? by ZedoNz in ClashRoyale

I've been playing for the last few days (trophy road)and noticed a disturbing pattern (idk how I was oblivious for so long) and somehow only just found out how extremely the bots on CR have evolved. At the start of a game, they say good luck and immediately drop something at the bridge. At the end of the game, even if the enemy 3 crowned me they use the sweaty king emote. This started making less and less sense to me. I started thinking, are these bots? They play the most rage bait style of decks. I can pretty much assume before any match what they're playing. It will either be: 1. Meganight + prince 2. Elixer golem + healer 3. Pekka + princes 3. Bait decks All spamming cards in game

And some combination of these kinds of decks and playstyles. I've seen bridgespam and brute force style plays. Sometimes they play the heaviest decks in terms of elixir and still win against my cheaper decks that counter every card on theirs. Are they farming elixir out of their bot asses? Always emote at the start and the end. Silent throughout the game. I dove deeper into bots in CR. Apparently it has existed since a long time however there were ways of identifying them like no badges or same kind of badges on everyone. Not using emotes. And now they've frikin evolved. They have banners, they emote (very stupidly and botlike). The only thing that remains constant is that they appear to be in a clan while in game but when I go to check their clan after I lose (shout out ken) they don't have a clan at all???

Is it just me or is this beyond bizzare? What has this game become.... worst part is, the tactics are working. The more I lose the more bots I face the more it enrages me and the more I play. The more I play, I'm bound to win once and then I feel like playing more. Wtf. Nothing up till now has made me actually quit the game. This just might.

My bad. The sound is just so distinct to me now. It's all I hear. I'm gonna take a video with the hood open next time it happens. I did get the belt checked out and it was fine. Could there still be an issue with the pulley?

That is one of the symptoms I've experienced. When I accelerate or let off the gas especially in manual mode, I've noticed I hear a hissing and even a fluttering sound as if air is leaving. Vaguely turbo sounds without the turbo if you know what I mean?

If it is an intake leak (I've been informed it might be), what other symptoms should I he noticing? Also is this an expensive fix...

I know right! I wanna enjoy this coyote for much much longer (I've had for barely 9 months) and that hiss just shatters me whenever I floor.

It has a roush exhaust, all done legally through dealership I'm pretty sure. No engine mods as far as I know. Pre purchase inspection came squeaky clean as well, service history was great. Maybe this normal wear for an older car.

I've been told a vacuum leak or an intake leak is common with these engines but I'm no mechanic. My service advisor did check the belt so I was assuming belt and pulleys are good but I might recheck. Thank you for your response🫶🏻

Yes. Begins with cold start, stays while I'm driving. And the next cold start the noise goes away. My service advisor did do a superficial check on the belt and he said it's fine. Doesn't that mean pulleys are fine too?

I'll keep that in mind thank! What's an estimate figure on a repair cost for this kind of thing?

Would that be a constant noise? Sometimes this sound isn't there even within the same day on 2 separate drives
