the easiest advice, but not the best.

Seeing the amazingness of a video game is tough, and in some cases, impossible. Try having them watch games, and then maybe he'll realize that people love this game, and maybe he should give it a chance.

Campaign and UMS are a good way to get people to know starcraft. Getting them into melee is harder IMO.

If he likes Aoe2 that means he has nothing against micro intensive "do it yourself" games. So just tell him about the imense depth of bw and how it is difficult enough to support a pro scene etc.
(And make sure he wins games)
