Surprisingly, it's 5 completely separate bots:

So the bots do not communicate directly?
The bots presumably "learned" that the other heroes act the way that the bot would have acted were they in that position (i.e. all my allies run the same algorithm, so I can predict what they would do)
That seems like a pretty serious disadvantage
