That is really, really cool.
I am just worried that people will link these videos every time people speak about skill ceiling in sc2 :D
But yeah great stuff indeed! (maybe the future of esports is to watch bot games, haha)

Going to have to put up with it, but it's not much better than showing aimbots in a FPS and saying look how amazing players could be if they had the perfect mechanics of a computer! I think there's probably a distinction between the "ceiling" for a computer and the "ceiling" for us mammals made out of flesh and bones clicking away.

These are fantastic man! It really goes to show how far we are from perfect micro in SC2.

For LOTV, how about:
Adept shading
Splitting vs Parastic Bomb
Splitting vs Disruptor shots
Splitting vs Lurker spines
Proper Lurker siege/unsiege
Proper Liberator seige/unsiege
Cyclone kiting
Looks like you've already got MediTanks covered.


What do you mean by proper Lurker siege/unsiege and Liberator siege/unsiege?


Maybe something like if the enemy moves away, the lurker/liberator unsieges/unborrows and moves to the point where it is in range of the enemy, then sieges again. Also the reverse, if the lurker/liberator is taking damage, it unsieges , moves back out of range, sieges again.

Just imagine how frustrating it would be to play against something like this. That marine adept bunker micro was hilarious.

this is why diverse race RTS games have never been balanced upon release.

developers can never predict how well the best humans will be able to exploit their newly invented unit mechanics

Thanks everyone

Also inform me if you have any suggestions on what I should do next.

Note that this AI is still developing, so don't have too high expectations of it, but it is still capable.

It's a fantasy I've had for a long time to see a computer to everything with every unit at the same time.

It's just a morbid curiosity, but I'd like to see it:

Say, a Zerg:

Harassing with 30 mutalisks all moving individually in order to attack constantly and not receive damage. (1 group of 30 ? 2 groups of 15 ? 30 groups of 1 !! )

At the same time, lings harassing another base, and forcing the ennemy to keep troops there. They constantly stay out of range, until they can attack workers.

Of course, overlords have speed, and are all behing moved constantly to keep the best vision ! And since they all know the location of most ennemy units, they can calculate where they can go safely, depending on their speed and number !

Don't you guys wonder what ''perfect'' play would look like ? ) Those marines splits made me wonder for sure .

The marine splits are actually partially based on luck, as well as the map terrain. If it is not in a very open field, the AI will screw up. I had to test the marine splits a few times before recording the best one, which was in the video.

In fact for all the clips in the video I had to test them a few times and pick the best one to record. So there is a lot of room for improvement.

Planning to do LotV micro with Cyclones, Disruptors, Ravagers and Lurkers (most challenging) next.

Very nice, micro bots are hilarious.

I'd like to see a perfectly microed maxed Terran vs Protoss battle.

Can you also pit two AI against each other? That would be interesting to see
Edit: this is also already very interesting of course!

There's currently something like that portrayed in (blink vs load unload):



Of course once there are more modes of micro with further development of Micro AI we may see more of such things.
