It's heresy to even imply that any game can compete against a game that was shaped by the hands of God Himself.

Is that a real game?

I was doing so good in LCS. An Elite-Liberal president was in office, 74% of the public supported him, the Congress was now mostly liberal, and everything was coming up Crime Squad.
My leader just got out of jail after being arrested before the election, too.
But alas...
I was too dumb to live.

My sleepers gave me a warning. They said that a corporation was planning to raid the LCS.
I thought I could stay in my safehouse for a few more days.
I was wrong.
I tried giving up my 6 members. I wanted to be arrested. I would recruit my Elite Security and Firefighter sleepers into the active Squad.
Well...

Everybody was killed. My sleepers weren't able to just immediately quit and save everything.
I lost.

RIP Ashley Carson and her Liberal Crime Squad.

LCS?

Liberal Crime Squad. A roguelike-ish strategy game I've been playing. You gotta make an overly Conservative America overly Liberal.

Speaking of LCS, I beat it.
The year was 2015 when I did it. 6 years after the start. Once the 2012 election ended with a Liberal in office, I pretty much won. Congress became way more left leaning after that, and an amendment was made to the Constitution that made the entire Supreme Court Liberal.
It was only a matter of time until I succeeded in my hopes and dreams.

I also committed treason.
That was cool.

Anyways, off to the next, way harder mode, where you have to compete with a Conservative Crime Squad.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but AIs have an inherent advantage over human players in video games. What makes this one special?

This A.I. is facing not just a regular player, but a competitive one, and an expert one. Probably also already won champions.

In a very limited fight that is nothing like the championship games (or even your average DOTA games).
