Will Halo Wars help me get into Starcraft 2?

Is being good at Halo Wars enough to enter Starcraft 2 at a decent level or will it create bad habits for a newcomer since HW is a super dumbed down RTS?
I mainly ask because I don't have the $1300 to drop on my Alienware laptop just yet. So I wanted a console RTS complex enough that SC2 doesn't feel too foreign to me.

simple answer NO,

I've played dozens of RTS games. including sc brood war, sc2 and so on.
i can tell you even the way you would play brood war is completely different to sc2.

The only way to get decent at the game is to actually play it.
If you cant play it then just watch commentaries for now.

No

Halo wars is an overrated , oversimplified console RTS . Made for people who never played the genre before aka FPS fans and Halo fans . It's nothing like Starcraft and it's on a completely different platform.

Play starcraft to get good at starcraft . HW isn't even the best RTS on xbox . That honor goes to Command And Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars
