You can practice red alert for two decades and be as good as when you begin playing

When you can beat two computers in warcraft, you can start winning in multi-player
When you can beat seven computers in starcraft, you still can't win against humans
When you beat a computer for the eight millionth times you realize you never played humans

In warcraft you say the word imbalance and everyone start debating on race, hero and units
