I won't be talking about the tournament itself in this thread, moreso just the video and aspects of the AIs that people are interested in. For all tournament specific info (including results) go to the tournament thread

The PvPs were fairly impressive with their dragoon micro, given that dragoon micro, I have to say I was pretty disappointed by the vulture micro of the terran AIs. They ran way 2 far after every hit on a zealot and got trapped and stuff. I wasn't sure what the significance of the sunk break by zealots was? The TvT towards the end with teal slowpushing was quite impressive, classic TvT really. The zerglings always running back to kill that pylon being built, was this a flaw in the yellow AI, or was the protoss AI actually abusing this flaw to keep the zerglings busy? | ||

Beat a 4 pool by killing 3/4 drones with the scout probe, I don't think you can be any more baller than that. Going to have to agree with that. Although I think I would just quit BW forever if that happened to me. >.< | ||

I think what the thing thing with the zerglings going after the pylon was that zerglings were programmed to prioritize pylons>undefended nexii>whatever else. Of course, the protoss AI is programmed to keep buildings powered, so that happens. | ||

Also why no Reavers for Protoss AI? Protoss AI was still very impressive w/ Goon/Zealot only tho And I felt Terran was rather lacking lol .. | ||

It didn't get shown on the video, but the zealots essentially 'remembered' where the sunkens were and how many of them they had. The zealots arrived one-by-one outside the base and waited until it thought it had enough to break the contain, which it did. This sort of calculation is non-trivial to do mathematically. | ||
