I feel like Strange should just get the walkover win, realistically. I don't see how Polt could win the rest of that game, unless Strange just implodes.

You have 3 minutes to construct a unit, build a building, or kill a building. Those are the rules in the engine

After three (in-game) minutes, if no player has completed any of these actions, the game issues a final three minute warning. If these final three minutes elapse without a player completing any of these actions, the game ends in a draw for all remaining players. If a player completes any of these actions, the timer resets and play continues normally.


where was the timer though?

A stalemate occurs when all players are unable to complete any of the following actions:

Generate income
Produce a unit
Construct a building
Research an upgrade
Destroy an enemy building


UNITS DYING DO NOT COUNT THAT IS WHY

Took too long to do anything, in-game tie lol
But he attacked the factory like 1 min ago? Doesn't make sense.


I don't think it's attacking the factory that resets the timer; I think it's killing a structure iirc. I could be wrong though.


Killing units must count. Medivac full of units died a couple mins before the tie.

The conditions for a stalemate are precisely those described above. In particular, the following actions will not break a stalemate:

Mine minerals or gas without returning them to a base
Begin production of a unit, construction of a building, or research of an upgrade without finishing it
Damaging but not destroying an enemy building
Letting fire or creep deprivation destroy a building
Destroying a non-enemy building (e.g., a neutral Supply Depot)
Damaging or killing any unit

But doesn't units counts?
edit guess not


Nope, never did. Notably, this prevents a single swarm host / energy units with free units to stall the game forever

From Liquidipedia:

A stalemate occurs when all players are unable to complete any of the following actions:

Generate income
Produce a unit
Construct a building
Research an upgrade
Destroy an enemy building

Destroying units does not count.

After three (in-game) minutes, if no player has completed any of these actions, the game issues a final three minute warning. If these final three minutes elapse without a player completing any of these actions, the game ends in a draw for all remaining players. If a player completes any of these actions, the timer resets and play continues normally.

But is this even a thing in custom games????

I thought it's for ladder only.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
