RTS is special because it's realtime. An AI that's only 'good enough' in terms of strategy or tactics could still win by being far better at parallelizing and reaction speed. The bigger the game world, the more this is true.

Human Starcraft players need to have a basic skill of taking hundreds of actions per minute before they can bring their superior strategy or tactics into play.
