1 Terran Grandmaster vs 7 PROTOSS INSANE A.I. (WORLD RECORD)

[@Compulsive_LARPer]

I loved how you were able to drastically reduce the amount of attempts by going to the whiteboard and studying the replays, the maps, etc. One of the wrinkliest brains out there for sure.

[@commandershepard4235]

It does seem to lack a certain smoothness 😂

[@Arctyr]

Holy crap. You lost less than 10k resources worth of units and the enemies lost 293k resources worth. You killed 30x the unit value your opponents killed. Amazing game, love these challenges.

[@lazybeastz182]

thats the power of stupid ai now they need openai

20 seconds into the game: "dealing with your neighbor who is overly sensitive." Five seconds later, probes are in the base, attacking suvs.

How the AI knows he made a depot? There is no scout!

[@RossRadikSherman]

@@FatTunaTakos Cheater AIs -- the toughest setting -- have map hack and see the whole map.

[@karanoelle4819]

What this series has taught me: 1. Liberators are op 2. The AI is dumb with Liberator zones 3. Mech is literally the best strategy ever Time to go pro!

[@efrestein]

Congratulations!! For a future challenge, i believe the 2P/2Z/2T & 1 Random you mentioned to be the most "balanced" (compared to all-random where you hope for good matchups)

[@ashtonrendon600]

Yes this 100% that has to be the hardest 1v7 and the only one left save for 4:3/3:4 ratio of just two races but then that’s just annoying how many combinations there are.

[@tientrinh1577]

You are on FIRE my man! Just take it easy and don't burn out.. What a legend.. Congratulations!

Hey thermal I never comment on videos, but your series are incredibly awesome to watch. The consistent commentary and video length are a perfect combination. I barely have any knowledge of the game and can still find a lot of enjoyment in the content. Keep it up.

[@AXharoth]

play the demo at least , and you will understand better whats hapening

[@asbjrnfossmo1589]

I believe they made it free to play, at least the first campaign and multiplayer. If you have the time, I highly recommend trying this game. Even the storyline is great.

AI x6: Sends army enough to completely blot out the mini-map vision below the ramp, including carriers, colossi, immortals and hundreds of gateway units uThermal: Raises eyebrows 2 millimeters for 2 seconds

[@theduke3778]

Ai Cheater Insane has a few things going for it: 1: it can see the entire map, it knows where every building is, where every unit is, and what your unit comp is. It's able to blind-counter you 2: Ai gathers +2 resources. So 7 resources instead of 5. This affects mules as well 3: Ai gets free money in the late game. 4: The ai is able to switch comps. The Cheater ai is more reactive to what you do, and will switch on a dime if it so chooses too. 5: It's MAX APM is increased to 1200-1400. Protoss for some reason likes microing probes into warp-prisms. 7: Ai is better at targeting and microing. It's able to spit against anti-armor missiles with precise accuracy

[@Vaeltis]

I just finished watching Pigs reaction to the 1v7 terran. And already uthermal goes and complete 1v7 protoss

[@qqncpsp]

I hope this series continues. Can't wait for 1 Zerg Vs. 7 Insane A. I.

We are experiencing history here guys. SC2 is out for so many years and this dude comes along and almost casually walks over challenges that have been thought as impossible for centuries. Have you ever seen Serral beat 7 Zerg, Terran and then Protoss at the same time? No! uThermal > Serral is hereby proven

[@kungfumaster9883]

Thank you for putting this one up instead of your 13th attempt. I've seen some other people do challenges that win through bugging out and honestly, it seems to be much less satisfying. This 19th attempt you did is truly through skill and is great to watch.

[@figuemiraisinremi6036]

[@joveniel11]

Had to subscribe to you man! You're commitment to your craft is second to none.

[@coreysayre1376]

Wow, that was awesome! I never would have thought it possible to beat 7 allied insane bots. When SC2 was new I used to love playing crazy base defense style games vs the AI, but I mever managed to actually win against an insane bot 1v1. Granted, my RTS skills never exceeded bronze league, but still, there is no way I would have believed this if I hadn't seen it! Well done!

[@Mr.Bambogea]

Daamn man, you basically did everything was left for starcraft as a challenge and wasn't finished, POGGERS, great content

[@daniellassander]

What an amazing fight man! Looking forward to the mixed all insane ai challange. After that i guess you just have to do the challenge with zerg and protoss :P

[@SOSolacex]

Glad you didn't upload the buggy one and decided finish it again! When I saw heromarine's 1v7 all random, a lot of the AI's bugged out which I thought low-key ruined the challenge.

[@ciCCapROSTi]

I'll watch this later, but holy hell dude, this was fast! I would REALLY love to see what Zerg can do to siege up properly, so Zerg vs 7 AI, but I'm not sure that's possible.

[@Kavewolf1989]

"beat 7 Terrans. Seriously think Protos might be impossible." "Beat them"

[@aratosm]

1 vs 7 terran looks like it was by far the hardest.

[@DarkSaruman]

The most impressive thing for me is the fact you uploaded this video only 6 days after publishing the video vs 7 AI Terrans. That means it took you only 5 days to do beat this challenge. You are a literal RTS god Marc! 😮❤

[@atomicquesadilla978]

Remind me never to get into a staring contest with thermy, man was staring straight into my soul for half an hour!

[@paulkeilman4888]

Really love this strategy!!! That must have been a difficult decision to drop siege tanks from your build, but after watching those immortals not give a crap about the liberators and wander through the liberation zones it's easy to see why now. Cattlebruisers are also a great pick. with +2 armor against your opponent, you effectively reduce damage output from carriers and phenoxies to minimum damage output, (1/10 their base DSP) . having a raven was an amazing idea as well, assuming upgrades are equal. its a 37.5% increase in damage output against ground targets, and a 60% increase against air units. Viodrays are almost 1 shot by the Yamato gun, (they survive with 10 hp), and all ground based anti-air can be taken care of by the liberators. That being said I think you got lucky in that none of the AIs built any tempest. Not sure if they are allergic to them or what, but this strategy would be shut down pretty quickly with mass tempest. If they sent them with a massive army, that could provide vision up close, then they could deal significant damage from afar. That being said, Congratulations on your sucess with these challenges!!

[@Rodrigo-vw8fy]

Very cool thermy, you used the liberator strategy I wrote on the comments from last 1v7 video

[@cazza358]

I love how there are still records being set so many years after lauhch, long live SCII :)

[@Cawfeesomething]

Awesome job! Nice work. I’ve never played sc2 yet but used to play against 7 AI all the time as protoss in broodwar. I would eventually wall off with nexuses (imagine with shield batteries + overcharge here?). I’d have canons defend with skytoss and a gazillion dark archons. I’d mind control all the enemies as my conscripted army. Could easily go beyond the 200 unit cap this way lol What about walling off with planetary fortresses? Like 5-10 of them across the ramp? Probably not as efficient doing it your way but would be fun as hell.

Cracking the protoss AI challenge is a sick achievement man. By the way - thors are God awful at carrier killing, as we all know, and on top of that they aren't capable of harassing the enemies. By all reasonable estimations, they are not a good unit here.

[@henningbreede6428]

Thors are insanely good at carrier killing. If it wasn't for the disruptor, they would hardcounter mass carrier. If you are thinking of Javelin Launchers, not being aware that you can switch the thor mode, that would explain it.

[@fusionmechanic1]

I remember as a kid I used to love doing command and conquer red alert. 1 vs 7 ai with just the armies no bases and watch as the ai would send all 7 armies against my one. And would be pure chaos. Not much strategy just focus fire. Would win a few times depending on map and position many times just impossible for me. Red alert two 7 vs 1 was also a lot of fun.

[@NativeNewMexican]

For everyone that thinks nukes in this situation would be a good idea: Cheater AI knows where the nuking ghost is and where the nuke is targeted. If you try it even against 2 or 3 cheater AIs you'll see your ghost die almost immediately. Detection is almost never an issue for the AI and neither is damage output. Nuking, despite how cool it would be to see, is not going to happen.

[@henningbreede6428]

And the fact that each nuke is 100 100 + the ressources for the ghosts and ghost academies.

[@DowsaTV]

These challenges are cool, for these, you could move your face cam over to the left just a little, and fit it in the face window directly to left of where your face is now. (the tall rectangular box that has the face of the races in it). Especially, since that cam feed is not live with audio. I think that would look really cool and be a nice touch to the video. Does SC2 have "Fastest" maps, like the old brood war ones? That might be a fun challenge as well, if so.

[@danielbeshers1689]

[@danielfreerichs4774]

So here are the stats again: the total efficiency was 293,405 : 9,770 Resources lost which is a Ratio of staggering 30.03 : 1!!! Just that means* that for every bc you lost, the AI lost over 12,000 Minerals and more than 9,000 Gas. This is more minerals than the average base has and more than double the gas!!!! In exchange for one bc! just incredible........ (a base has according to liquipedia 10,800 minerals and 4,500 gas) the AI that lost the most traded at a ratio of 7.45 : 1 and all AIs on average at 4.29 : 1. Definitely the best efficiency jet by far and probably that i have ever seen. Great content keep it up! I having a lot of fun watching all your videos! *you can not actually calculate it like that but it gives you an idea of the insanity of those trades.

I used to do these playing on slow speed and resuming from replay when I die.
