as expected, the bots are good at fighting in the limited environment but has a lot of flaws.

we're a while off the AI being able to compete in an actual game for sure.

Seems like ult usage was pretty odd for the AI. They probably have to work a lot on their adaptability in the mid/late game, as if their early game strategies don't pull off, they just kinda stall out.

I'm glad they adapted couriers correctly at least, but it's gonna be a whole new ball game with that I think.

Lot of mechanically impressive things which is par for the course I suppose.

Those Eul's counters to blink call show a problem with comparing bots to humans. A bot will never have any problem to make such a split-second reaction.

It's like comparing a weighlifter to a bulldozer or a crane - it's obvious that a machine can lift more. Or react faster.


They slowed them down to 200ms. It is possible for a human to react as quickly. Though I couldn't do it unless I got lucky or preclicked before blink in.


I think its more a advantage of consistency. The bot never gets tired or distracted. His reaction time will always be at his allowed peak. So you can try to get that blink call 100 times and you will fail 100 times against this bots.


Exactly, against pros you would get it 95 times out of 100 with the five not working due to people being on top of the situation.

depends
first time you show ur blink ? sure
after not so much

The AI still has its issues but already way too good in pubstomping.

The bots are better at fight execution than strategy, they should go for caveman dota drafts and just bring the pain

that's one reason the hero pool is so limited, they're pretty much all straight up fight/hit tower heroes; makes them look better than they actually are (presumably for investment $$)

Likely Group A meta was better and teams in the group focused on that for a week while group b focused on a weaker one.

I don't really understand the second pick shaker here, but I'm also scared of giving away ench. Still, quite happy about this opening for LGD.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer
