AI difficulty in Starcraft is not behaving as expected
I will start by saying that I have only been playing this game for two days. At first "Medium" was very hard for me because the enemy was ripping me apart. This was especially true about "Hard" when I was able to cheese my way there, I was torn up by the computer that built a massive army and annihilated my troops.
Right now, as of this morning, the AI is not doing anything. There is hardly any fight at all. I send my troops in, meet with a minor resistance and topple their base like a house of cards. I am not bragging about my ability, I am wondering if there is a mysterious bug messing up my game cause I want challenge and I want to learn. I don't want to waste my time in 1v1 until I feel I mastered the macro and micro vs AI so... is there any way to check if the AI is working as expected and if not, report it as a bug so I can get it fixed?
