It was some years ago, but the current SC2 has a wide variability. E.g. the TSL8 final (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=k0cWokKNBUQ https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=k0cWokKNBUQ) played this year was the opposite of deathballs, with rushed games decided by small errors.
At the top level players should keep an eye on the other player at all times, because a lot of strategies has a very specific response or you die.
- hackerlight 4y agoDoes anyone here know the conclusion to Alpha Star? What was its winrate against actual pros that it encountered on the ladder after the APM abuse was fixed following the exhibition match with TLO? Was it ever able to beat Serral?
- otherme123 4y agoAFAIK, it beat Serral, but he said the setup wasn't optimal (not his keyboard nor his mouse). The games are in the Artosis channel (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nbiVbd_CEIA https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nbiVbd_CEIA), and the comments are beginner friendly.
- icegreentea2 4y agoThey didn't run Alphastar on ladder long enough to really converge on a MMR (they also ran a bunch of different accounts in parallel and combined their results), but they projected ~6.3k Protoss, ~6k Terran and ~5.8k Zerg. With those MMR, you'd... probably not expect it to be beat Serral (7.5k MMR lmao...)
