But I feel like BW battles were more interesting because micro could upset some of the expected unit composition counters. A well-placed spell could completely change the positions of the players. We used to say, "Psy-storm is the great equilizer." | |

| Dec 6, 2011 at 18:45 | comment | added | cgp | I think it's also fair to not expect Micro to overcome larger armies as much as it it did in the original starcraft. The AI is just better. This makes Macro more important in SC2 than before. It's a better balance and makes for more interesting battles as forces tend to have more interesting compositions and counters, and expand the skillsets required to become good at the game. | |
