I agree with you that this claim doesn't need evidence, but for anyone interested.

Starcraft 2 came out in 2007. These are the original system requirements. https://www.lifewire.com/starcraft-ii-wings-of-liberty-requi...

I remember receiving the game as a gift and having to tell my grandma that my single core PC wouldn't be able to play it. I think my PC was only 3 years old at the time, not even 6.

I think you're miss-remembering. Starcraft 2 Wings of Liberty was released in 2010. I played it on release on my Core 2 Quad/GeForce 8800 GTS machine that I built in 2009.

Blizzard announced they were making SC2 in 2007. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StarCraft_II:_Wings_of_Liberty... there wasn't even a closed beta until early 2010.

Regardless, the minimum requirements you posted are single core CPU's.
