Remove the supplied wine and either spend a little and get the very good (for 
gaming) WineX rpm from Transgaming (or you can freely download the source and 
build it yourself, but it is a royal PITA).  You could try Codeweaver's Wine 
(for a small fee, me thinks) which is a nice, but slowly updated version.  Or 
you could simply try the latest build of Wine from WineHQ for free.  

StarCraft has long worked well with wine of various stripes.  I personally use 
WineX and am a paying member of the Transgaming community and I know 
first-hand that StarCraft works with it.  As for other games, your success 
with games is probably higher with WineX than any other version since that is 
what Transgaming is entirely focused on in the  wine builds.  In any case, it 
will still be hit-and-miss.  You could go to the Transgaming site and search 
for the game you are interested in and see how it is rated in 
useability/playability or you can simply peruse the entire list. 

You can have two different wines installed as well - WineX uses a binary 
called winex while WineHQ and codeweavers use wine...and I believe they will 
install into different locations so as not to conflict but I am not certain 
on this.
