- Forget my orbital command. There's nothing worse than getting to about 50 food and wondering why you have so few minerals. - Forgetting to check the destructible rocks to my base - Forgetting a key upgrade. (STIM!) - Sometimes if I place my buildings differently than usual for whatever reason, I forget my second supply depot.   | ||

There are a few pretty "OMG"-worthy screwups I've seen in high-end games, though. Like blocking your own expansion while Forge fast-expanding, consistently forgetting to research Extended Thermal Lance. Stuff like that makes me cringe. | ||

My stupid noob mistakes: 1- Don't transition out of mutas. Yes, sometimes I don't. But i can still win. I'm silver. 2- Have over 9000 minerals and literally 0 gas. This has some kind of reason but I don't know it yet. 3- Not exploding burrowed banelings when a big group of marines are on it. 4- Not giving a shit to evo chamber upgrades. 5- Not spreading creep at all. 6- Getting supply blocked with 20 excess larvae before the 8th minute. | ||

One thing I did that really helped with this was to play against the computer (or ladder if you want), do your normal thing and then check the replays. At the 10 minute mark you should have a MINIMUM of 30 SCV's (if you're Terran, the number is a bit different for other races but still a decent benchmark). Ideally you're 35+ workers. | ||

"Hm, why does my army feel so slow...where are the wings...why don't my fucking zerglings have wings...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh." Edit: Also, I sometimes accidently hotkey my first 3 larvae instead of my hatchery at the start of the game. (split workers at start, click on hatchery and hit sd to make drone, then forget to click back to hatchery before ctrl+5) Usually it is no big deal, but sometimes I end up hitting 5sd without realizing it and boom, idle drone. | ||

Actually spot a dark shrine building? MULE UP. See a stargate for a void ray? See them with a starport and tech lab? MULE UP. I actually play right and see what they are doing, then use my scans for mules and go "oh yeah! I forgot they were going cloaked stuff!" or play as I normally do instead of actually using the scouting info. | ||

- Stopping workers during early spam - Chronoing before realizing i'm blocked - Relaying units into enemy armies - Accidentally adding buildings to my main army control group - Tech Lab instead of Reactor - Factory instead of Ghost Academy - (Zerg only for some reason) Pressing B instead of V and throwing myself off for about five seconds | ||

I've always thought it'd be cool if you could queue "meta" commands too. Like shift click the few mutas to move around the side of the map then once they get to that point, shift ctrl+add to control group.. if that makes any sense. | ||

Haha I've actually done similar a few times where I accidentally build a supply depot instead of a starport, but that's just due to misclicking. Luckily (unluckily) I'm a slow enough player that I almost always see it right away. | ||

I almost always have approx 2 less supply than I should when I'm saving up for mutas. I will forget a key building in my build order, commonly the nexus in PvZ lol. SC2: I try to constantly chrono, and often will chrono despite being supply blocked. I never get detection as zerg. Cannot get my mind over the whole overlord needs to become overseer thing. If I don't expand I will always have 50000 too many workers. D: Well, even if I do expand I'll end up with way too many. | ||

summoning mules right next to the minerals and thinking that they are mining, i forget about them forgetting extra rax/gates when expanding. maybe this thread relates to this one: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=162324 | ||

chronoboosting the last 2 seconds of an upgrade instead of probes or saving it putting 4 in gas oh yeah, and choking your ramp only to have probes blocking stalkers when the mutas come | ||
