Abstract
The high-tech, extreme speed, and immense computational complexity of quantum computing have paved the way for modern applications in cybersecurity, solutions to previously impossible optimization problems, weather forecasting, and even modeling of the human genome. Despite all the research in more scientific applications, the world of competitive StarCraft 2 has emerged as one of the fascinating areas where quantum computing has found practical implementation. No professional E-sport has needed an overpriced $25M computer rig for a small advantage over another player more than this Blizzard Entertainment classic turned global phenomenon. In this paper, the specs and capabilities of a cheap and effective...
