But yeah, this game draws certain kind of people. But still as everywhere there are people who learn fast and those who don't.

I agree, though the game has so many intricacies and strategic elements, even fast learners cannot master them all that quickly. The vets with massive SP and MP experience, generally do have an edge as a game progesses. Fast learners may quickly grasp somethings but miss others that more careful/more plodding/more methodical/detail oriented learners wouldn't.
I do hope the vets will give us noobs a good show this time around, even though I know the main purpose is education. Adding more experienced players to the vets side would actually bring the game closer to the ideal rather than unbalance things, and both teams still have alternate slots available.
