This game is boring and 1 dimensional nowaydays, it is just who has more apm, you can be monkey and be gm if you have mechanics. So boring…
Nah. A computer AI has APM that blows a human out of the water by light years, but…it still loses (so far). There’s a reason the word strategy is in RTS.
Apm= skill
Proceeds to throw 8 clicks to move a reaper across the map while floating in minerals
If you are talking about that google AI,it was a nerfed one, with low apm and reduced actions to imitate humans.A truly AI would beat anyone with pure blink stalker.
An unconstrained AI has ability to micro each unit separately and to make a quadruple or sestuple drop while attacking from 3 direction, defending in 5 places and macroing perfectly on the background.
And sniping units individually,and the insane splits…
Sc2 strategy part is not really big,it’s basically some strats during early game and the rest is mostly mechanics,you cant define a master plan to defeat your enemy on the long run,you just play and adapt from there. Probably 4x games are more about strategy than starcraft.
But I dont find the game boring, every game is different if you are not playing on a top level which is when everybody is playing the same way with the same units on the same positions on the same places. I guess if you are a pro and play for 12h a day doing the same game after game you get bored,but im no pro and for me its the opposite,Im amused even when protossed .
