"Macro generally refers to managing large quantities of tasks at the same time. For example, building units from various structures throughout the game while also building more structures, scouting, creating new bases, etc. This is different from micro, which is generally controlling small amounts of units and giving them very specific orders."

You're forgetting about Rush distances, economy/Tech, and unit comp.

If you allow yourself to get scouted with an early 2 gas, you can fend off early game pressure with FF's right in front of your ramp while you warp in units to help you defend.

Since this was posted in April, this was before the 1.1 patch...
Imagine doing this test with the current patch.

I find that I waste a lot of time watching or waiting for things happen... time that could be spent doing other much more useful things!

You don't have to watch.

You just need to checkup!

Watching wastes time, you should always be doing something.
