1 Terran vs 7 ELITE A.I. [Extreme Quality]

1v7 skirmish match in Starcraft 2: Legacy of the Void with Terrans against 7 random Elite difficulty AI / Computers on the map "Rooftop Terrace".

it actually would have been pretty huge if they got enough damage out, that bunker could have easily fallen with less reaction time from the player.

[@Knowbody42]

It's mainly cannon and bunker rush defense behavior. The elite AI basically has map hacks, and will know when you start building something near their base, even if it's outside their vision, and instantly start attacking it with workers.

Real reply: It also came from Sc1 that a lot of players advise Terran players to between siege and bunkers. (don't forget scv! They gonna help repair) So some developers would like to put this in the campaign to help newer players defeat the game.

Going into this wasn't expecting the strategy to be outlasting your opponents rather than say picking them off as quickly as possible, but great work, was extremely satisfying to watch!

[@Humstuck]

its a nice idea to outlast because in 8 players map a lot of them have a "teammate" on your side, so it gives you more resources than any other AI if you kill that one quick and take over. Terran just has the best siege units also. Pretty cool. If anything maybe doing 4 elite AI with the same strat might be harder because they would have more resources and could probably force you out eventually? maybe.

[@lancelindlelee7256]

@@Humstuck it will end up being the same thing. You still have a base ratio of one to three. You still need to trade extremely efficiently. Every marine you build should kill 3 in return.

[@bigdiccmarty9335]

@@Humstuck well, if the res are the same, then no, if anything it's easier, because the supply cap collectively is less, so it's a 4 to 1 and not 7 to 1 maximum presence

[@nemou4985]

that was exactly what I expected since most lots VS AI are like that

[@Vastin]

Picking off one of the AI's early before it could use many resources was critical though, as that shifts the resource exhaustion ratio from 7-1, to a 3-1 - which dramatically increases the number of losses he can afford over the course of the game.

[@mischaprudon3316]

I once did this but I was a bit more aggressive, went terran air. Made planetaris with scvs and a wall of sieges for defence and then started flying around with banshees/vikings/liberators. As long as you have some spare scans you can safely see the enemy coming and unless its a giant blob army or a marine wave. You can then use your libs to lure the army to a high ground or a cliff to snipe away at em. Also use these guys to make the enemy ot blob up in 1 giant dead wave and to snipe expansions or base peices that are unguarded. This way the ai's spend even more cash to rebuild. But good vid.

[@Salammaleicu]

what i liked the most is how you baited their air forces in your turrets every time. gotta implement that in my gameplay too

[@AlexandersArchways]

This was a blast to watch, pun intended. I'm not big on Terran gameplay, but thisbeas epic. My strategy has always been with protos and build a mine field of defense turrets while building carriers in the back hidden then flank the enemies from the shadows of the edges and work my way through.

[@DamienDarkside]

That is a variant of the Terran star tbh, which I respect as well because I used to play Toss back in BW. I found that Terran on this side was more my thing. Something about holding out against larger forces just appeals to so many eh?

Hey great vid, might I suggest next time after you get your base defense up look at getting building armor. Your use of buildings in these kinda demands it I think. In normal games it’s kind of a joke but against AI in this scenario it’ll definitely be worth the cost

[@braydenswinhart]

@@TheJoey938 okay and?

[@TITAN_101]

@@TheJoey938 he still has a point, it would have made it a bit easier due to higher building defense stats thus requiring less money spent on repairs due to them taking less damage (also less SCV's needed on the wall for those repairs).

The video encourages you to try the campaign again, thanks for playing

[@_ShaDynasty]

impressive. although, is it the same if you fight 1 or 8 with this strategy ? because it ultimately comes down to resource depletion

[@DIREWOLFx75]

Hmm, never tried 1 vs7... I think the "worst" we've played is 2 vs 8 and 3 vs 7(CPUs can't handle more(yes, CPUs, not GPUs)). But we always play on maps with maxed out (commonly "gold") resources, meaning that turtling is possible, just not adviseable(as it leaves the AIs with taking over ALL bases and basically spamming infinite armies at you at an insane rate from every direction). And usually much larger and LESS defendable. It's interesting to see how different the defense is. No forward artillery to break up attacks. Not using the flank of the entrance to add firepower concentration for some odd reason. That's a major flaw. And only a fraction of what we would consider enough SAM turrets. Yeah, sure the depots are way too weak to block the entrance, but they're also the easiest way to do it early on. And there, the north expansion lost easily because of not enough air defenses. And later they keep getting attackers in there. Air defenses and some siege tanks on the right of the entrance would make it much easier to defend. Especially as it would make it harder for AIs to spot uphill. Huh... I wonder how you would manage on one of my maps... Never ending minerals and gas... For everyone. AIs just keep coming until you can damage them enough. Base defense tends to get "intense"...

[@chunghoangthai1338]

I just did this! I have been trying for weeks, rushing opponents until today when I realized that the way to do it is just to outlast and control the very last mineral lines near your base (but outside of it). I did it a bit differently though, the enemy AIs are easily manipulated if you have Liberators. They won't go into Liberators range, so just camp 1 Liberators at the ramp helps you save money on a lot of Siege tanks. Later on you need quite a few more Libs though, I ended up with 5 that survived almost the whole game. I also used Libs to camp them at AI mineral lines to slow them down (once again, they'll try to stop you but their units won't go into Libs range until they have overwhelming number), I slowed 1 AI down with 2 Libs to give me some breathing room early game.

Does SC2 apply machine learning to it's AIs, cause a worker rush something I don't think I've seen from SC AI before ?

[@BulborbStan]

The AI will attack with their workers if they think you're rushing them and they don't have any real military units yet. Since he was doing 1 vs 7, that means one of the AI started in his shared base. And once he got a hit in on their building, they threw all their workers at him.

Ghost academies are one of the most cost-effective building to use in your wall at 1250HP for 150/50. Earlier on I use buildings that I actually need to use to complete the wall more quickly. Ghost academies also have the disadvantage that you can't lift them up.
