Lets face it, the market/players want bots, and there must be a lot of them otherwise we would not be having this proposal.  I feel any anti-bot measures will just force that demand underground and people will find other ways to bot without needing any token.  Or if there is no alternative for those users they will leave.  
In the current proposal we are carving out 50% of the reward pool, so some would say we are still allowing bots, but it could still hurt some bot users who maybe only invested in chaos legion for example.
And how long before the calls and proposals come to remove bots completely from the system.  The first anti bot measure would open the gates and I feel and the writing would be on the wall for what would eventually come.  How would any bot user feel safe in investing in the game more if at anytime in the future there could be some kind of compete bot ban or more anti bot measures added.  Especially after the team has said they are bot agnostic for 2 years.

*Lets face it, the market/players want bots*

Dude you're the **ONLY ONE** talking constantly about that. It seems like you're either too lazy, burned out, not good enough or simply not interested in the game to play it manually. 


*[...]and people will find other ways to bot without needing any token.*


Not if there are functioning measures against bots, and they are out there.

*How would any bot user feel safe in investing in the game more if at anytime in the future there could be some kind of compete bot ban or more anti bot measures added.*

It's quite ironic that you talk about investing in the game when in fact you do not want to invest the only resource every player should have to put in, the most basic resource thats out there and that everyone shares evenly: **Time**
It doesn't matter if people run 20 alt accounts, they obviously should get more rewards than people with 1 or 2 accounts **cause they invested way more resources (time) into the game**.
If you don't find the time to handle 20 alts, you shouldn't have that many and rather focus on 1-2 accounts. 
Bot users shouldn't feel safe at all. Bots are not allowed in any competitive game, especially in card games which brings us to your last point:

*Especially after the team has said they are bot agnostic for 2 years.*

They said that yes, but with time things change. Bots change and so do opinions, it's just how it is. 
If you invested in the game only to run bots cause in the past the team said they're not against it, that's on you. Maybe it's time to rethink about your investment strategy. In your eyes this might be only an investment where you get some quick gains but for a lot of players it is what this whole thing is about, 
 **a game**.

*And how long before the calls and proposals come to remove bots completely from the system.*
 
Let's hope that'll be as soon as possible. 


FYI: I run a bot on my alt aswell but I'd happily waive extra gains if I'm too lazy or do not find the time to play.
