You are highly overestimating the capability of AI.

Infinite APM AIs in starcraft still basically suck.

There strategy/high level planning is so terrible that perfect/unfair micro doesn't save them.




This is a function of shitty AI, not infinite APMs.

Honestly, the AI in most games is downright terrible to start with, but for those where it's actually competent, you need to nerf it a bit or it becomes overwhelming.


Yes, that's my point.

AI in real time strategy games all suck, because the problems there are very very hard.

Even with blatantly unfair advantages and cheating the AIs still suck.

No such competent AI exists for real time strategy games. The "decision tree" is a billion times more complex than something like Go.
