That you can alt+tab out of the game while in the matchmaking queue, and the game will then pop up when it has found enough players? Awesomeness....

Ctrl+F5-8 still sucks tho. My hands aren't large enough. Shift+F1-4 would be nice, but whatever.

He's asking himself rhetorically 'why didn't I know it popped up?'. And I'm going to go with one of two reasons.

A. no topics on it
B. no loading screen tip about it

this should probably be put into the sc2 forum, or mentioned somewhere at least, because my guess is that many people like myself had no idea about this.

Ok, this does not work for me..... I dunno why.....

Waiting for matches atm is taking forever, so I decided to try it out during my placement matches. I went 1-4.

That 1 was me winning, after not doing anything for the first 9 minutes and 25 seconds.....

Fuck. Now I've gotta work my way up from Silver.....
