AI CONTEST #1 Battle Thread

[Andrewgosu]

The battles for today are arranged for the same time as yesterday.

Around 6 hours remaining.

 

[Trollvottel]

so the replays are uploaded but the maps are not so i cant watch the replays >.<

 

[warden13]

Yes, we can't watch them without maps.

 

[Andrewgosu]

What, really?

I guess I'm so used to watching SC replays which don't require you to have the map featured in the replay.

I will upload the maps with the code after group B battles are finished.

 

[Jesus4Lyf]

Yes, we can't watch them without maps.

Lol, I said around 5 times over the course of the threads that the replays would be useless without the maps... XD

Edit:

• A win gets you 3 points, a draw 1 and a loss 0 points in group stage.
• In case of a draw, two AIs with the less cumulative time spent fighting will advance to the next round.

If this applies to the finals, you still must rematch Gwypaas and myself to obtain the time spent fighting. 7 minutes is a lot, was it not meant to have been reached.

For some reason I can't watch battle #2
Nice ones though.
Shadow Hunter was a lot better than I expected, it actually stands a chance (needs some work though)

 

[Jesus4Lyf]

I just watched Jesus4Lyf VS Gwypaas, the full thing for the first time. I reckon I would've killed him. I can't believe no one realised at the very end: We're both standing in the fountain, he's in windwalk. The multiboard says he's not detected.

I suppose we'll get to see the match without bugs (fountain reveal and corpse spawn fixed) for the semi-finals.

I can't either...

 

[Andrewgosu]

Group A match-up videos are now available on youtube.

I suggest to watch them there, in HD quality.


The results of group B and the due dates of semis and finals will be posted soon.

 

[warden13]

Thanks for vids and replays.
In TideofChaos vs warden13 battle, victory was just one shadowstrike ahead.. My dumb AI didn't casted and get noobed. So it deserves to be eliminated XD
Jesus's AI is really good. But in our match, his warden's AI looked like ordering my warden as well. You sure you dont used pick unit types of warden etc?
Looking forward to see other battles.

 

[Jesus4Lyf]

>But in our match, his warden's AI looked like ordering my warden as well. You sure you dont used pick unit types of warden etc?
Absolutely certain. It plugs in by setting a global to "Last Created Unit" at the start and only issues orders through that global and such. :thup:

But thankyou.

I just realized that since Andrew gave the maps too, I can make them fight each other again, so I rematched gwypass and 4lyfe (the one where he double ulted and blinked too much).

The result was similar: Although he didn't double ult, he still blinked way to much. In fact, he pretty much only blinked, doing 4 blinks at a time with no wait in-between going from fountain to fountain, so fast the blademaster could almost never hit him. They fought sometimes, but usually healed up to full health afterwards. It quit at about 5 mins because the blademaster bugged like he did in that one other game and sat cloaked in one spot, and the warden bugged and sat in the corned she usually goes too, and they both just sat there being very brave together doing nothing..

 

[warden13]

I did the same thing, I gave a chance to battle once more..And watching it is really funny. Results were interesting.

+TideOfChaos defeated the Jesus4Lyf. (Under 2 minutes)(Wards blocked warden's path he blinked but it was too late..)
+Jesus4Lyf defeated the gwypass. (In 6 minutes.)(Blademaster stucked again)
+warden13 defeated Jesus4Lyf. (Under 2 minutes) (My dodge trigger worked well this time XD)
+gwypass defeated warden13. (At the match in the tourmament I was just lucky. Blademaster owned me under 2 mins this time XD)
+gwypas defeated tideofchaos: (It wasn't easy but managed to kill it finally.)
+Tideofchaos defeated warden13: (My AI lost his mind at the same location again and get killed exaclty same way. It was inevitable maybe.)

So I understand it. Result's 50% depends on luck XD You may get different results at every match.

Congrats. to Jesus4LYf and gywpas. ^_^

I saw the replay of Jesus vs. Warden. GJ Jesus. It was hard to know which warden was to which player. I tought that the winning one was warden, since the end.

Jesus coded in Gui?

 

[Jesus4Lyf]

+warden13 defeated Jesus4Lyf. (Under 2 minutes) (My dodge trigger worked well this time XD)

Sounds like you used TriggerSleepAction. It lasts a different amount of time on battle.net (so you shouldn't use it).

Although those results surprise me.

>Jesus coded in Gui?
100% GUI. And no custom script lines.

 

[GetTriggerUnit-]

Why couldn't we use Jass in Gui?

 

[BlackRose]

:/ Probably mentioned above, in fact it is.... but Jesus4Lyf vs Gywpass is not working.... the map is there... correct name and stuff... it even shows the minimap icon of the replay. But...

 

[Andrewgosu]

I will re-upload the Jesus4Lyf vs Gwypaas map and replay as soon as I am back.

Yes, I will be going away for a couple of days for personal reasons.

The group B results will posted as soon as I get back, too.

Not to mention the replays, maps and videos.


Sorry guys for keeping you all waiting.

Real life gets in the way.

 

[GetTriggerUnit-]

May I get a match slot?

 

[Andrewgosu]

I am back again and I have uploaded the videos and posted the results of group B.

About the Jesus4Lyf vs gwypaas replay - I couldn't manage to get it work, the replay doesn't recognise the map.

We have to satisfy with the video.


Anyway, looks like Jesus4Lyf, gwypaas, Exide and 13lade619 will go to the semis - a best out of 3 matchup.

The semis will take place on friday the 7th, the same time, the same place.

22:00 CET, U.S.East server.

Jesus4Lyf vs 13blade619
gwypaas vs Exide

(Group A winner vs Group B second place)

Have fun!
