How to Get Better A.I. At Broodwar

Released in 1998, "Starcraft: Brood War" added additional units and scenarios to the real time strategy game "Starcraft." Since then, players centered in South Korea have refined "Starcraft" into a real industry, with professional teams, corporate sponsors and two television stations which broadcast games. Many players use the included AI (artificial intelligence) opponent as a practice partner, but find it inadequate because it is simplistic and doesn't employ the same strategies human players do. However, you can replace the AI included with the game with a fan-made and more challenging AI opponent.
