Computers get 7 minerals per trip - very hard to win early game... | ||

Anyway, I think it doesn't really matter if you can beat insane because like, don't they play with higher income than us? We're playing to their advantage. I'm plat too, but I can't beat insane, haven't really tried tho | ||

I played against insane AI ZvP on SoW trying to get the 'It's Morphing Time' achievement (the one where you have to morph a lair in the first 285 seconds of the game). After getting the achievement I decided to try and win by going fast muta. It worked! the toss AI went for a zealot + immortal attack, but my lings + spine crawlers barely held them off until my mutas popped, from there I won. So basically it was super-fast 1 base muta, I didn't even make a queen until after I had lair. It is kind of a cheese build but not as bad as 6pool IMO.

First game with mass BCs, insane AI countered hard with mass corrupters. Second game, I still went mass BCs, but used some ground units sparingly at first. This time, AI built up mutalisk and other ground forces, and only managed to switch to mass corrupters after some elapsed time. Maybe "faking" a certain tech path, but then switching to its hard counter can be helpful? All this, of course, assume you have survived the ridiculous T1/1.5 push that the AI makes early on. | ||

Even if you are Terran yourself you will eventually run out of resources due to turtling while they take the whole map and your tanks will slowly die. Even with the other matchups straight up, the 1v2 Insane is probably impossible unless you are Terran yourself against non-Terran AI's. umm no. It's definitely possible to beat 1v2 insane AI... I did it legitly without rush, and without being terran. And I'm sure a lot of others can do it on here too. lol its starcraft, not rocket science. | ||

http://www.filefactory.com/file/b2ha516/n/1v2_insane_AI_for_TL.SC2Replay Edit: its vs 1p and 1z just for variation. My last time there was at least 1 terran in it I remember, and I did it another way, but no cheese and no rush. I think I could of taken 1v3 as well, and if they harassed, well that just would of taken a bit longer with defenses, that's all. | ||

Choose a map that's fitting and just get er done really. Tell me if this doesnt work, I never upload stuff. http://www.filefactory.com/file/b2ha516/n/1v2_insane_AI_for_TL.SC2Replay Edit: its vs 1p and 1z just for variation.

Although getting 4 bases the instant you wall off does make it pretty easy. I'd love to see a replay of Zerg vs. 2 Insane Terrans on Lost Temple/Meta if anyone has it. | ||
