Up in the top left there you will see the computer player's current Actions Per Minute (APM).

1,100. That's 20 actions a second. It's also 4 times higher than the average S-class pro-gamer's APM.

Tell me how that's fair.

It's a CPU, what did you expect? They're designed to be challenging. There is nothing to be learnt from defeating an easy opponent.

Ayy lmao

Or an insane one. I'm pretty sure the Insane AI has a -100% handicap...

I still managed to beat them, though.

Yeah, but they still make nasty rush armies. Very little variety of units, but still effective.

Ayy lmao

The computer has high APM because it is able to control each unit separately. The actual cheat the computer has on the higher settings is the amount of minerals and gas it receives. It gains resources at a much higher rate then players possibly a 2 to 1 ratio.

It's widely known that the computer automatically has vision of the entire map at all times and on the insane level has some heavy discounts for buying units.

Your bitterness, I will dispel

Machines will always be more effecient then players, but they will never be better, so they need to make them challenging and that tends to mean that they cheat.
