What Nony wrote here is in contrast to what Artosis wrote in a somewhat recent thread (about the ability to follow the most solid standard build orders and great mechanics being the most important thing).
Also, progamers often gamble with BOs, that is definitely true, we see some really crazy openings sometimes which rarely make sense, and it's all because they think they can get away with it (because they hope the opponent doesn't think they'd do that particular BO). It's basically a blind guess, although TL users will call this amazing psychological tricks.
TL users might confuse BO gambling with having ingenious strategy (but only if a progamer is doing it).
But really, strategy is incredibly shallow in SC. Tactics, on the other hand, is *theoretically* complex in SC, but in practice it's also quite shallow (but still a lot deeper than strategy) since the high speed forces the players to only do the absolutely most important tasks and ignore a lot of other tasks which *could* give them an advantage *if* they had additional time for them, but since they do not, they are ignored in favor of the more important tasks. Unfortunately though, the most important tasks are rather shallow ("clicky macro" (I like that term) and all related stuff ... all part of mechanics, which the spectators also don't see (another negative aspect)).
And these discussions are always running into a dead end anyway since players will only listen to who is the most skilled player at this very moment. Which is the reason why gameplay discussion on TL is so goddamn awful - players don't use common sense, don't use intelligence, don't use good arguments to discuss gameplay - they just look at how skilled the player who's arguing is at this very moment, not realizing that a lot of gameplay discussion is unrelated to skill (best example: the Blizzard employees, they're all SC noobs, but know a shit ton more about gameplay than any wannabe here from TL)

I used to love intotheWow cuz he is argentinian, now I love him cuz he says with humour what I've been thinking since the day I saw the first presentation of SC2.

@DeadBeef
i don believe u werent baned cause tl staff thinks ur right, when most of the time, even tl staff are complaining about lack of macro in sc2, what u seem to love
but if thats the problem, if u want ur precious sc2 to have zero macromanagement u can stick with it, brood war proscene wont die to a n00b game
I've got a point, and i'm ready to kill or die for it.

awesome article... if they noobify SC2 i will cry.

i know this is a strange example.. but the whole reason I got into Starcraft was because super smash brothers brawl came out. I played super smash brothers melee really competitively and it was (still is) awesome. Brawl basically ruined the series by removing almost every technique that made the game difficult into something that is automatically done for you or just not in the game, and now the tournament scene for the game is stagnating and dying. I hope they don't do the same to SC2...

I just do not understand the logic of making a game easier to play to attract noobs... Giving everyone OOV macro does not really make the game more fun for a noob, all it does is limit the depth of the game as all of the mechanical techniques will be mastered within months of release.
