Can't help but point out that, in SC2 specifically, micro is not really a fundamental skill at all. Macro-ing efficiently will win you the vast majority of fights until you reach the 90th percentile of players. It's only in these high level games that micro skills become the determining factors.

Though starcraft macro has a high ratio of fiddly clicking to strategy. Less so in SC2 but still significant. Good macro involves a lot of clicking buttons in many different places as soon as they become available, because you can't queue them.

But "Macro" is not Strategy either : Strategy is all about the "why" of declaring war in the first place.

You inevitably end up with strategic considerations in games with more than 2 teams (especially if the teams are not locked), but most RT"S" matches are not played in these conditions (probably because they are too fast for diplomacy, which is itself a huge chunk of strategy).

I guess "Macro" is Operations ?
