Damn this hurricane technique is so hot right now! i got a pretty hot technique as well! if you attack your allies in 3v3 or 4v4 they will leave, giving you control of their stuff so you can rape the enemy cause all your allies never do anything anyway. I call this technique ntteaming

I recently developed a nifty micro trick. I call it Hurricaning because I made it and it involves storms (clever I know). Anyway what you need to do is while you have all of your army selected (this is after hotkeying it to 1 obv), you hold ctrl and left click on the portrait of the HTs. This lets you select all of the HTs in your army and only them. After that you keep holding ctrl and hit the "2" key, it's right next to the "1" you're using for your army. Then after you hit 1a and left click to the guys base and are watching the fight you can press "2" and then "t" (the "t" key is right next to the "r" key, but if you're like me and don't know where the "r" key is just know that it is right three up one from the "a' key). Now you just click on the guys army and one of your HTs will cast storm. It's surprisingly effective, especially once you master it and can press t and left click really fast because you can have more of your HTs casting storm quicker.

999 diamond P btw. Hope it helped


will give it a try.

I definitely lost a PvT because my ranged control group decided to set up a giant wall that kept my HTs just far enough that they couldn't storm but close enough that they could be EMP'd.

ffffffffffffff

Shouldn't you hotkey them whenever possible?

and they take priority over ever other caster..

The sarcasm is bleeding into my eyes.

And no, my slow HT's mean I have to keep my forces moving a tad slower so they don't get randomly sniped by a random air unit or whatever. That hasn't really benefited me at all, sadly.

And the only way to relieve the hurripaining will be to use some hur-procaine.

EDIT: applied proactively, of course.
