I find the linked article incomplete and the way DeepMind framed the story disingenuous. There was no mention of the fact the DeepMind team produced 5 versions of AlphaStar and pitted them all against both TLO and MaNa without telling them they're playing against essentially five players. This turned what human players thought was best-of-5 into 5 rounds of best-of-1, which is not how any SC2 tournaments are played. My guess is that this was done on purpose to mask the fact each agent was highly specialized in one particular strategy, which the humans could adapt to and counter it.
