  • I challenged StarCraft 2 Pros to take on 7 Random INSANE Cheater AIs at once! After three attempts by others, uThermal decided to step up and create a WORLD RECORD. Can it be done against Terran and Protoss? Can it be done against all random AIs? There are still records to be broken for sure!

    25:00 Units and abilities have various flags that determine how the AI react to them (Basic - Unit: Flags tab in the editor). Ravagers lack the tags for High Priority Targets, Threat Air/Air units and Always Threat to Attackers, while Infestors and High Templars have them (at least in the current version of the melee dependencies). That is why the AI overlook Ravagers more than humans would.

After watching your videos, at the age of 35 now, I decided to finally beat Brood War just so I can justify buying Starcraft 2 and playing the game. Love your videos, love your sense of humor, you got me! Keep up the good work :)

    This is what speedrunners go through, and its fun watching someone do the whole "repeat ad infinitum until success" with a RTS game. And like with speedrunners, Thermal has done so many attempts that he was eventually able to find exploits in the AIs code in order to push a little bit further (like with flying buildings in instead of building them at the site in order to keep the AI from auto rushing). Very awesome challenge :D

      So 100 bucks to win the challenge.
      71 tries.
      Lets say each try runs from 5 min to 20 min for early and later ones, and maybe up to 30 min for some of the way late ones.
      Average it out to about 20 min each. 5 tries is about 1 hour. so we're looking at about 14 hours total, with the last one taking 35 min.
      so 14.5 hours. divided into 100.
      That's about $6.90 a run, rounded up a touch.
      Hell of a way to make a living.

Interesting comparison with war2 qnd sc2, both started as a low resources game and at.the final meta was played on high resources. Gow the most played map was the most imbalanced, can't imagine sc2 with imbalanced maps. Then having heat,zone,kali,kahn,AOL player bases converge at bnet.

    For anybody in the comment section who can't do math reference, every starcraft game generally goes around 15 to 17 minutes unless it's really cheesy or really really macro right? But the average is like 15 to 17 minutes accounting for everything right? So he spent 20 hours on this for perspective I have over 300 hours on one champion in League of Legends called Samira (DO NOT LOOK UP HER RELEASE DATE) but thermy boii spent what we might classify as the exact shortest possible amount of time to do this it could have taken 1000 hours

      And how many thousands of hours had he played this game before the challenge existed? Might have been a factor…….

    Well if you were really that close to getting very far with all races in this challenge then you should’ve done it.

    The AI still does not play as a real good player. Not one of them had any excuse, why they lost.
