I will watch more vods definitely, but what you say I am not arguing against. The casy game is an example of winning with smarts, not mechanical ability. At the pro level say in the OSL, no one loses because they have worse mechanics, it's all strategy and that's why progaming is so great. My frustration is with the amateur level where not everyone practices so much.
With that said I do recall one game i've seen that showed a difference in mechanical skill. Sea.Jy vs Boxer for dual league I believe, it was the osl where boxer lost to shinhwa. Jy and boxer were on equal footing until boxer started attacking.. and attacking and attacking, jy couldn't keep up and was slowly losing and then a dropship lands in his main. That was when you could see Jy was outclassed. But at that time he was a fresh rookie that was just getting on tv.
What I would like though is for you to recommend me some games where chojja plays "smart" zvt. I've seen the game vs oov on rush hour, it was a hive defiler rush. I hardly consider that a counter because it's too low eco.

Well... Chojja has always been an enigma to me and you know i'm not his fan. Chojja's RH3 games were usually pretty smart. His Guardian positioning, his fast hive usage, the way he ran terrans around on that map.... but to call Chojja stupid is going a lil far. Sure he's lame and boring, but stupid is mumyung. You can truly see the difference in understanding of the game between those two.
At amateur level, maybe they do have perfect mechanics through practice and the only thing that makes them not pro is stupidity, but I think you overlook a lot of smarts that players use and just say it's mechanical.
And it wasn't just the hive defiler rush. It was that plus utilizing the map to gain a lot of time.
Also Check out Much vs Reach. Reach shoulda raped Much but Much pulls a Kingdom on Reach AGAIN.. it was definately a LOL moment. Go Much~ He's the best 'new' toss in awhile.

You're just jealous that you don't have their apm! XD
JkJk  Mechanics seems alot easier to improve than playing smart. I guess if you're lazier than its easier to improve playing smart because playing faster requires alot more effort, but personally for me playing smart seems impossible but the mechanics part is easy to improve.
