Question: Starcraft 2 macro micro?

I want to know what is the most macro intensive race and which is the most micro intensive race. I want to know because I want to the most fun race (for me), which will consist of the most macro and a decent amount of micro. So far I know:
MACRO: Zerg with most demanding with xxx at the bottom
MICRO: Terran??? with the most demanding with zerg at the bottom.
Please correct me if I'm wrong and please fill in the x's and please give more info. Thanks.


Answer:

MACRO: Zerg, then Protoss, then Terran. Zerg must dominate the map with hives and queens constantly restocking a large army. The protoss need to work heavily on warp gates and constantly keep an easy outcome of stealthers or zealots. Terran need to pretty much constantly spam marines until they run out of resources, and go to the next structure of buildings.

MICRO: Zerg, then Terran, then Protoss. Zerg require constant attention to their armies as you can turn the tides of a war into each and every individual little bugger pop out of the ground, shoot, and jump back in before your opponent can respond. The Zerg are very, very deadly when Micro'd correctly and I believe are the MOST deadly when Micro'd correctly. Terran require some attention unless they are mass producing marines, and all the have to do is grab a dozen medivacs along with and stimpack into the enemy base and type /win. Protoss can also get away with no micro when it comes to the BALL OF DEATH. You mass produce ANY protoss units that can attack (including anti-air) and walk them all in one big ball to the enemy. If you don't win the fight, you didn't have a big enough army.

OVERALL: It is pure opinion of which is the most intensive and difficult race to follow and master, as they are all very difficult to even come close to the Koreans (pros). The game is designed to balance all of the races somehow. The above is only how i see the game played and how i play the game to a certain extent.

I think you have it flipped. Macro is usually Terran and the easiest race, while zerg is a lot of micro which is hard to play

Although, if you are really good you want to go with Zerg because it is the most benificial in good hands
