It used to be at least, I hope it doesn't turn into another WC3 where everything is care-bear autocast no micro necessary to win a game and you win by knowing how to build units, not control them.

Which is why I'm one of the few people that support the mothership nerf (ability wise, not graphics wise), GG.

w00t! SC 2 FTW!!!
Oddly though the units of Terran and Zerg look a little plastic. Don't ya think? Protoss is like super powerful now.

More STARCRAFT!

Protoss will be the coolest looking race ever lol. I'm pretty sure it's gonna be balanced. The mothership becomes very vulnerable when it executes its special attack and it cant attack air units during the duration of that attack. So it's very easy to throw vikings at it, but then again, who said you can't support the mothership with other units? lol

And yer, I don't like those type of games. I prefer it be a game of micro/macro and skill and it still is where large armies battle large armies.

Anyone watch WCG replays? These guys are insanely fast with their multi-task(macro/micro) and their APM like goes beyond 400 WTF( mine is only 150-200) T_T

Sometimes lol. You require more vespene gas!

Protoss is the race for me because it's very simple and you win by brute force and the offenseive strategy is pretty much straightforward. Still pissed reavers were taken off though. I guess we're gonna have to learn to harass with another units, maybe the stalker.

I'm also comfortable with zerg, but with the selection limited to only 16 units, I can't be assed to hotkey em all and manual click move to one place when I already have reached the 200 unit cap.

Gonna be pwnage.

I love building defenses with terran on Big Game Hunters - A row of Supply depots on the entry first, 2nd - a row of Turrets, 3rd - A row of Bunkers with Stim packed Marines in them and 4th - Pile of tanks (in siege mode ofcource).

I suck with terran though. Protoss gotta be the most efficient race.

+1 and the teleport option would be very useful for mutalisk harrass or other economy raids.

Blizzard has yet to release official system requirements, but have said the game will be compatible with Windows XP, Vista, and Mac OS X. They have also said in an interview that they are aiming to keep the requirements as low as possible, and that the game will probably run fine on most computers.
