Trying to solve Imperfect information games is interesting.

But realtime game is not. As computer have edges in boring fileds (apm etc).

I feel the real challenge will be Imperfect information, turn based, and cooperation( teamplay based) for ai.

Unfortunately there are currently no game AFAIK with these characteristics...

Like a 2d turn based counter-strike or dota/lol would be really the good format game to solve.

I think some card games meet your criteria. Specifically, Bridge, Hearts, and Auction Pitch (aka Setback) are all complex, turn-based, imperfect information games with some amount of cooperation. I’d love to see DeepMind take on one of these games.

Competitive Pokemon with teambuilding would be something fresh I don't think existing techniques have figured out yet.

Not super prestigious, but IMO still a good intermediate goal.

Civilization?

AlphaCiv would be interesting as hell, but I fear that there isn't historical data for Alpha to consume. I would expect it would have a similar result to AlphaStar though-- it beats the human player before the end game.

Perhaps it should have other targets than simply beating the opponent. Like getting good statistics.
