What version of Winsock and which functions does SC use to send and receive ingame packets?
SC uses UDP, so it would be reasonable to expect that at winsock level it uses sendto/recvfrom.
For what version it uses, I think it calls WSAStartup(0x101) if that is what you mean.. You could just verify it by looking at it in debugger though. It also uses mostly the Berkeley sockets functions.
And most of (all?) the winsock functions are hidden behind the storm SNet api, which may be documented somewhere.
Some info about the storm packet format is here: https://bnetdocs.org/?op=doc&did=34

None.
What about the functions like WSASendTo/WSARecvFrom? Does SC use a combination of wsock32.dll and ws2_32.dll?
None.
These are the only winsock functions use by standard.snp
At least on my pc though, wsock32 functions just redirect to ws32_32.
Battle.snp uses other functions as well, as it needs to communicate with the chat server, and it is not required to share any of its code with standard.snp, but ingame communication should be the same.
Code
wsock32:
#2 bind
#3 closesocket
#9 htons
#17 recvfrom
#20 sendto
#21 setsockopt
#23 socket
#111 WSAGetLastError
#115 WSAStartup
#116 WSACleanup
wsa2_32:
WSAIoctl
#2 bind
#3 closesocket
#9 htons
#17 recvfrom
#20 sendto
#21 setsockopt
#23 socket
#111 WSAGetLastError
#115 WSAStartup
#116 WSACleanup
wsa2_32:
WSAIoctl

NimoStar -- But Terran players did win the game against the bot. So it is conclusive, Terran OP 
=[11:09 pm]
NimoStar -- They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available[10:37 pm]
NudeRaider -- VraelVrael shouted: wasnt even that really, they 6000 apm just made the terran army so much more value/$ that the extra economy didnt matter
Well yes and no. The apm made him win the battle, but I'm not convinced a pro player can't account for that. He got caught with his pants down so it's not really representative of a prepared player. And the extra economy absolutely would've mattered if that push didn't almost immediately end the game.

NudeRaider -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man nothing too special tbh. the human player wasn't ready to combat the push that stretched almost the whole map. So this game means nothing. We'll have to see how it goes once the humans have adjusted for its unorthodox strategies.
they basically lost most of their army in one big battle and didn't have the time and production to leverage the economic advantage and come back from that blow.[01:55 pm]
NudeRaider -- Oh_ManOh_Man shouted: https://youtu.be/1vsTqNwHquE omg guys it's happening. ITS HAPPENING. EVERONY STAY CALM. STAY F:wob::wob:CKING CALM!
not sure why you are so hyped, when basically the same happened 7 years ago with AlphaStar on SC2.
