There are 10 (ten) numerical keys that can be easily assigned to your army/production to facilitate unit control and army production.

Please, make use of those damn keys and stop running your Infestors/HTs into the enemy's army without casting a single spell.

You call yourselves 'pros' but you never use more than 4-5 hotkeys. It's embarrassing to see your entire army one 1 hotkey and then see your enemy demolish you despite a tech/supply disadvantage.

Pro.. heh, yeah ok.

This. I also think you may be mistaken in thinking that pressing 6 and right clicking away solves the problem of -not right clicking away-

it's funny.



you tell an obvious truth about the state of pro-gaming at TL and people will still pretend you are wrong.






@OP: i think it will probably take about 3 to 5 years for players to develope that far. i'm actually serious. usually i'd say about 7 years, cause that's how long development in counter-strike took, but people might have an edge due to broodwar.

Infestors, even in the hands of some koreans, are more like super banelings than sneaky spellcasters. I feel like I'm being slapped with a newspaper every time I see one explode to something that isn't an auto-targeting siege tank.

I tried using the hotkeys past 6, but its almost impossible to accurately go from the standard hand position I use to the 7-0 range while maintaining 250-300 apm. You just miss too many keys and you have to pay too much attention to your hands rather than simply flow with the game.

^oh shit its ooshmagoosh
