[@urd3adnow]

the funniest thing about swordsoul was that it could consistently blow through shaman/3x monk turn 1 and then it wouldn't have a choice but to synchro. so the deck just activated after turn 1 basically

[@maltenuchter7134]

The issue was that it wanted to use shaman to infinitely recycle monks until the end of times with their top decks. This only stopped when it randomly blew up their shaman with blackout (twice).

It really makes me wonder what the coding is for Access to banish itself first sometimes but not all the time

[@maltenuchter7134]

I assume the bot just doesn't recognize which of the targets is on the field and which are in the graveyard. Or it doesn't have a priority to keep it in the field.

[@U1TR4F0RCE]

I do wonder what sort of bots are being used since I feel like a basic machine learning especially with some training data should be able to do slightly better in terms of destroying own cards or banishing own access code

[@ryansanagustin6553]

@@U1TR4F0RCE The bots r EDOPro’s Feeling Lucky AI which from what I can tell has been trained to activate as many effects as possible. Their deck-specific bots r pretty good imo but they were trained for their deck exactly and switching them to other decks confuses them

[@ashikjaman1940]

Someone needs to Talk to Access's Code

[@mythplatypuspwned]

Maybe if it has a banish target in the graveyard with the same attribute as itself, it prioritizes banishing that one first, so it can't banish itself the same turn. It probably only banishes itself if it doesn't

[@tuvillo]

I'm pretty impressed with the Duel Links Auto-Duel AI right now. This AI literally can't see half a step ahead. That it used Called By on Ash was already a huge surprise.

[@dhanyl2725]

I felt like watching a duelist break down, man. It didn't want to play the swordsoul part of the deck, but in the end it had to... Pretty sad state of affairs imo

It felt like the AI either prioritizes link monsters and is rabidly summoning them whenever there’s a possible link summon, hence the adventure monsters into knightmare and accesscode into balelynx, and/or the Swordsoul bot can’t recognize that it will get a synchro from the Mo Ye effect so it doesn’t consider that an option and continues to see tenyi summons and barrels down that path.

[@simo_6474]

[@LazurBeemz]

The main problem is that the bots have no sense of "cost" so they'll discard their key combo pieces, pop their own cards, and use their boss monsters as material. Also, they have no concept of "gameplan" so they mess up any search, and pull the trigger on any quick effects or traps ASAP. The best bot deck would feature completely reactive cards that don't pay cost, and single-purpose monsters it can't misplay. A rank-4 toolbox with gadgets, kagetokage, tin goldfish, etc. and basic traps like mirror force and bottomless would do well I think.

The devs could definitely improve the bots by copying the player's performance of the decks with different hands and if the deck isn't linear be able to copy the variety of plays or combos made. Also, have a way to make sure they don't have to go "play happy" every turn. I'm sure there's a bit more problems than what I listed, but those are some of the biggest ones to get patched up.

[@Pihutihutihutijay]

There are a couple of different bot AI's, the one in the video is the 'feelin lucky' ai which... doesn't really think, It has some very basic safeguards to keep it from trying to attack into stronger monsters, but otherwise it will play any card, and activate any effect as soon as it can.
