Because For Honor uses a peer-to-peer mesh for PvP, bots have specific "reaction frames" measured in milliseconds (1/60th of a second). However, the name is the first clue.

For Honor has a deep, if convoluted, narrative about the Horkos and Chimera alliances. Bots like HorkosCannoneer , WarmongersWrath , or IronLegionnaire serve a different function.

In game design, there is a concept called the "Uncanny Valley of Competition." When a bot is named “BOT_01,” the human brain immediately devalues any victory or defeat. Beating “BOT_01” feels hollow; losing to it feels humiliating because you lost to a label.

These are names that feel like inside jokes from the development team. PizzaSteve is the gold standard. Why Steve? Why Pizza? There is no lore, yet every player knows PizzaSteve is a Level 3 bot (the hardest difficulty) who will parry a light attack from neutral and emote spam your corpse.

A reference to General Tozen’s famous campaign line, "You're a Raider! Legendary!".
