Tya's Unit Tournament features epic battles between units in StarCraft 2, using music from the game's soundtrack. Units are chosen from Protoss, Terran and Zerg forces, or a co-op commander such as Raynor, Nova, Artanis, or Kerrigan. Units will independently use their abilities, in a basic way. All units use Legacy of the Void stats, the same units you'd see in SC2 e-sports controlled by the likes of Serral, Maru, and ByuN.

Though this project is a work in progress, and there are errors that will need to be fixed, so point them out if you spot any! The resource beneath vespene is the unit's cost in the mod I run on the SC2 arcade, Direct Strike. Enjoy!

Some of you asked for it, so here it is, a bunch of tiny battles! Brings back some of the chaos I think earlier videos had. Let me know what you think!

2/7 lol I like this format, battles become MUCH harder to predict

[arckmage]

1. I've been looking forward to these. I think they're a nice flavor addition.
2. These are way closer than I'd thought they'd be. Like 1 hit difference for half the fights.

[CptVein]

Honestly, its crazy how SC2 has been out for a decade and you are the first (that I know of) doing this format
Great job. Subbed.

[mimicrymwot]

Those small battles are way more interesting and intriguing. They look like something that can actually happen, not purely hypothetical confrontation of an absurd armies vs your cpu. Please make more of them, maybe not so small, limits of 20-100 supply soun very good.

[GolemRising]

6/7, whew. All of those were so close. Poor archons, I was sure you had that.

[mikeceez]

This is great for unit interactions and actual research. It can be done in the arcade but seeing someone set it up is so satisfying. Thank you

"WE CANNOT HOLD"
*casually wins*

[CallofDutyBlackOps]

i've played enough SC1 to remember anytime a "low" amount of zerglings fighting a low amount of zealots pan out.

5/7
Underestimated the zealots twice, I'm still really impressed they beat the lings because adrenal glands is insane

[Lokerbar]

3/7. Great idea, surprizingly fun. By the way - what if try make mixed matches? Like 4 marines and 2 marauders against 2 zealots and 1 stalker, and such...

[RedDiomedes]

I would have thought the zealots would crush seedlings but actually zerglings counter zealots at a cheaper price

[bongmatho]

I love small battles!! Please do this more!!

[justyndelbridge]

Interesting, I found this format much easier to predict! The human mind works more effectively with smaller numbers.

[Lukas-cvoh]

broooos each battle was soooo close! best one yet imo

[durantes]

Hot damn. So many of these were insanely close, it was near impossible to predict.

[adamnevraumont]

Hydralisk: what if we bred a marine, but doubled its price?

[Bronawix]

This smaller battle idea is really cool! I hope you do some more every so often 😊

[exzenosisharbingaar]

hmm... on one end, big battles are fun to watch, on the other, small battles are fun to watch since it's also educational for SC2's resource and pop cap.

Granted, some of it can boil down to AI derping out, but alas, they're a good test to see exactly what units beat what when you're fighting with scraps

[JimRaynorRaider]

I hope for mix race army fights or more hybrid battles for future videos
