It comes out in July, the first phase of beta ends at the end of this month in like twelve days (Although there'll be another phase before launch presumably), and most locations like Gamestop offer a beta key with a preorder of either SC2 or it's collector's edition.

It's more like a mix between Chess and Piano.

Did you call your local gamestop or did you try online? And Gamestop isn't the only retailer to offer a beta key with preorders. Most reputable sellers I've come across are doing something similar. I've heard people trying Amazon.com, but a good bet would be www.teamliquid.net, a StarCraft community that recently got the okay from Blizzard to sell preorders of SC2. You can find the appropriate thread on their website here.

What we think, or what we know, or what we believe is, in the end, of little consequence. The only consequence is what we do.

The crack doesn't let you play online. It just gives you access to the map editor and to some pretty awful AI opponents.
Personally, I pre-ordered because I'm going to be buying the game anyway and the beta key is just a lovely little bonus.

I dunno. I think it's more like a cross between Chess and the accordion.
|
Accordions require at least 300 actions per minute?

Having tried to play one, I'd say so. (For the complex stuff, but then equally I can play stuff on the piano at way less "APM", it just doesn't sound as good)
On the accordion, you need to blow bellows, pick which instruments to imitate (via Church Organ esque "Stops") and press keys to select which notes.
Renguard is a wonderful initiative

Then I accept the analogy.

The first phase of beta. Presumably there's going to be another phase sometime between the closing and launch.

ie. It doesn't look as hard as it actually is.

Then I reject your analogy. StarCraft is every bit as hard as it looks.
