AlphaStar cheated. For example:

> the AI sees the map as a whole while Mana despite is APM is restricted on what it can fit in his screen

That is probably why we haven't seen more of it.

Also, AlphaStar is not an LLM and it bears no resemblance to LLM tech except for the generic "AI" label.

Also, programming is not like those games, in the sense that it's not adversarial in nature and not a closed system.
