Since I'm only 15, and I only really started playing BW when I was 9, I sucked at BW ^^ But I still played it cause it was so fun.

Then a few years later I got into WC3, so I did that alot. Then I heard about the release of SC2 coming in 2010. So I rushed to get filled in with the community.

So a balance between the 2.

Mainly WC3 for me, moved on to WoW with light WC3 action to break up monotony.

Mainly WC3, aka "wtf is macro?"

Can a law student study and play Starcraft 2 and the same time?

bw wasn't that fun to play as a noob (D in ICC), but was very fun to watch (especially koreans)

I've been playing warcraft 2 for the past 14 years along with some Lost Vikings on the side. Orcs in space? Pfffft.

SC:BW, I've actually never played WC3. The first RTS I played and even the first game I bought was Age of Empires 2.

I sometimes feel like playing BW for the heck of it and I gotta tell ya, I sometimes feel that it is a better competitive game, one of the reasons being that it's much more difficult to manage and master...

SC:BW(no link needed)
SC2 beta(same as SC:BW)
SC2 campaign @ a friends house (I really don't think it even deserves a link unless shallow.com counts)

Wow there is a really good mix. I'm surprised the "mostly SC" category isn't more dominant

SC 2 is my first RTS!
I was a MMO and FPS player before even knowing that Srarcraft 1 existed (that was in March 2010 haha).
I'm now 1000+ Diamond as Zerg so I'm pretty happy about my progression :p

WC3, BW, CnC Generals, in that order. So I voted for balanced.

Really interesting results. I've played a lot of RTS games in the last 5 years, but only BW "competitively".
