So does it play random or rotates through the races?
If its anything like the showmatches in the past there are probably multiple different alphastar "agents" playing the ladder at the same time during their testing. Agent 1 might be playing as terran, agent 2 as protoss and so forth, each with their own strategies. Getting matched with the same agent multiple times in a row wont make it change anything, it will be just like facing the same player on the ladder multiple times in a row except the agent will show less variety in its style.

No new infos here...
I would not be surprised if the ai team were to take care of the chat, and maybe also the gg timing. It would make sense if the total number of games were in the hundreds which I believe they will be.

Why is this thread so slow, this is huge and really cool.
Also, I don't see why there wouldn't be more than hundreds of games total because they're apparently going to have many different agents on the ladder? And each of those should play plenty of games. Pros play like 30-40 games in just a single day.

it will ascend quickly until it gets waylaid in cheese purgatory

Turns out, It's all a big social experiment, to see if GM's start behaving better or worse on the ladder.
Or to pull more people to play..

Unfortunately we have so little info that there's just not much to talk about right now. I'm dying for the replay pack that they're going to release though. I had so much fun watching all of the replays from the showmatches earlier this year.

They won’t be truly sentient until they can BM and balance whine with the rest of them.
I imagine the Protoss iterations of AlphaStar will behave with the class and decorum typical of Protoss players, not so confident about those Z and T ones though

The idea of a zerg with a thousand eyes... sounds terrifying.
I imagine we will see some 1 2 3 punch your dead zerg tech switches.
In my mind, I see a Dark with better scouting.
My big guess.... pool first in every matchup. Or gas-pool.

How the hell do we not have an ID or replay yet??

Maybe it's not actually playing ladder yet and they just sent out the opt-in/opt-out message option early. They want to keep it anonymous, so it seems likely they'd throw Alphastar on there later when people aren't expecting it. Everyone is expecting it on ladder the first week when they see that message.

They wan't it to be anonymous, wich makes a lot of sense, if its opponent knew its AlphaStar they would start doing weird shit on purpose and it would corrupts its learning process.
Internet has a history of fucking up AIs after all.

They’ve so successfully taught it how to BM properly that nobody has yet even suspected they’re playing an AI?

It is not learning, just testing

It'd screw up tests too, though.

They should also train a neural network model dedicated for natural language processing for Alphastar to learn trashtalk.
|
It would screw up the tests... such as people flying empty Warp prisms near the Base of the AI, and the AI getting confused
(like we saw)
Many more weird strategies or actions will be certain to pop up.
That's why they have to keep it low-key to get useful information

Soooo are we any further on the b.net ID's of Alphastar ?
|
Woah wow, what MMR is it playing at?
