Am I the only one, who thinks that all this polished "Training" and "Vs AI" interface is wasted effort?
Or are they really used that much?

It's really a great feature and something a lot of people should enjoy I think. Ladder anxiety is a genuine concern.

AI programmed with MarineKing's gg timing

lol, shut up. : (

As someone who played w & vs the AI in the HotS beta, they do some really cool micro tricks on ELITE. They'll like drop changelings around thors to keep them from moving and split their army before they attack sometimes.

does the elite AI cheat with resources?

There's ELITE & ELITE CHEATER 1 & ELITE CHEATER 2

First one doesn't do any cheating (except maybe micro stuff, but that is rare)
Second one gets vision all the time & resources toward teh late game
Third one gets vision & resources from the beginning

I think.


There's actually:
Elite - hardest difficulty but does not cheat, performs selected or random builds very well.
Insane Cheater 1 - this one has vision over you, always, all the time
Insane Cheater 2 - this one gets extra minerals/gas from patches/geysers, which means he can spend more resources than you.
Insane Cheater 3 - the last one has both vision and extra resources and is the same as the Insane AI that was present in old WoL.

Also, micro tricks like changeling dropping a thor, is not standard AI behaviour. I know there's some people out there messing around with the AI in the Editor to get them to do all kinds of crazy things. AI has good and superfast micro, but I doubt they'd block a thor with changelings every game..


The AI in HOTS at least Forcefields now as well. Before they would only do damage dealing spells from memory (ridiculously well though - ie snipe the living piss out of your bio ball)

I know, they dropped a spoiler out of nowhere, it was pretty annoying.


It's only really a spoiler if they didn't intend to show you it. We know literally no context about it at all so it still could mean anything.

I don't see why not. You could in the beta. WoL portraits are based off wins and HoTS portraits are based off XP

Yeah its possible. Shellshock nailed it.

I was worried about that too... but they've merged them well. Not sure what they'll do for Void though, probably add another tier of 1k wins or something.
