However the computer can macro while in a fight which is something people can’t dI. We would miss the fight and lose the game. It’s not just a tactics game. Attention span and where your eyes are matter.
It’s so bad that below master people shouldn’t really be doing too much micro during a fight because they’ll lose out on macro. Even in pro matches you see attention span issues and sometimes avoidance of too much micro to win. Really good Micro is going to win you any battle.
I’m in diamond 2 and I definitely micro in battles. The difference between platinum 1 and diamond 3 is largely macro but it very soon becomes micro as well.
Elite players do this all the time. Serral would use his standard tactic of attacking in two places as the same time, and alpha star couldn’t figure out the best way to deal with it. When alpha star did the same thing to him, he would mitigate the smaller attack and even predict alphastar’s escape route and crush it.
