So after losing a game on iccup, I decided to play a computer just to go over my build order and stuff. I expected it to be just like any game versus a computer; an easy competitor at my disposal, but this computer had other plans...

I didn\'t even know it was possible for computers to 4 pool.
( I went 9 overpool so I defended that initial rush )

edit: so i decided to play again tonight and the first game i played i swear to god...

seriously, was this always implemented in the game?

Which clan wars? Since when? See http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=89203

Yes computers do 4 pool sometimes.

I think many people learned that the hard way and have a secret history of losing to a comp once XD

I played a 2v2v2v2c once and someone got double 4-pooled by the 2 computers, which randomly both got zerg. It was quite amusing.

Aww, I was expecting the comp to make a pylon heart or something.

With some AI editing it's possible to make the AI talk when certain conditions are met, and maybe generate random insults/excuses. So if you want them comp to 4 pool you while calling you a noob, then saying you got lucky after it fails, you could do that. :D

haha a ai like that sounds like fun, i might take a crack at it, the computer would 4 pool every game, when he would make 6 lings he would write G-.-G noob, after failing it he would call you a hacker for 1 minute, threaten to report you and leave.

Don't tell me, what a bm, did he even say GG when u killed him? If no show screen, that would prove for even worse BM!

Actually Toss also does fast DT tech. Not sure when computer learned these strats, i think that was quite long time ago, like with BW or with that patch which changed sunks to 300 hp/ 2 armor, added TvB and replays. Anyone who could confirm? ^^

jeez your supposted to know all the AI builds! =p see list below:

Terran:
- rushes with mmf
- Attacks with m&m tank later on

Protoss:
- rushes with zealots out of three gates
- rushes with 1 dark templar and then follow up with the standard zealot rush
- makes fast nexus and stupid cannons everywhere and bug out or make a normal protoss army

Protoss dont follow up the same every time but usally they attack with zealots and goons some time after first attack.

Zerg:
- rushes with 6 lings (4-pool) then follow up with the build below
- attacks with hydra lurker ling a bit later then all other attacks, it can happen about the same time a terran moves out with his m&m tank.

Zerg usually bugs out and does nothing but weird stuff after the first rush like parasiting and taking expos whiteout mining them
