    I'm perfectly fine with them removing all XP from it. I'm only there for the mounts and cosmetic gear.
    And at ~20% win rate and matches dragging on as long as they do, it's getting tiresome.
    If getting rid of the bots keeps them off my team and lets me progress faster, great, get rid of them. But if we could just make sure they're all on the opponents' teams until I'm done with the grind, I'd be down with that as well. >_>

    If you are there only for the loot, just deal with it and don't complain.
    It is no more or less boring than doing same duty again and again and again for pony or bird or whatsoever.

    I am dealing with it and suffering through the grind, but I'll certainly complain. May not accomplish much, but at least it allows me some form of outlet.

    And though taking potshots and shaking my fist is just a means of venting, so obviously none of this really matters, I will say it actually is less appealing than grinding pretty much any PvE trial to me. At the point those become mundane, they can at least be relaxing.

    And just to poke at that comparison a bit more:
    1) While tokens are a thing for trials now, RNG drops are still the primary source for birds and whatnot, so you can potentially get your reward one run in. The PvP mounts being achievement rewards means there's no chance of a real reward after each match.
    2) PvE trials end up on farm-mode, so even if you were going to use the tokens to buy your item, you pretty much know exactly how many runs its going to take. Losing isn't much of a thing like it is here, so that's not really a barrier to progress...
