I don't think I'm some super power-house player. I am just a rising C who thinks he can help some people out with a little insight, and hopefully a little entertainment aswell. Feedback greatly appreciated! If you enjoy it or benefit from it, let me know and I can make more. Part 1: Part 2:  | ||

The idea would be though, that before making this decision, I would have enough time to float my factory back and land it. It was only about 10 seconds south of my main. When I go SKterran, I usually float my Fact for vision over a cliff vs muta harass, like on Tau cross. Afterwards, I usually float it out to a place where I can see incoming flanks or army movements, or drops, and I think most people would benefit from getting into the habit of using floating buildings for scouting purposes. In a situation where I might need my factory for mines and such, I won't let it go too far. =) | ||

I ask since I've made it a habit to get used to 4m5m6m7m8m every few seconds but you make macro look so easy despite going back to base to macro. Thanks for the vod, I found it very helpful. In TvZ, I DEFINITELY don't have enough control groups to waste on barracks'. My first 2 rax I turn into 3 and 4. That makes it easier to macro while keeping your scouting SCV alive and stuff like that. once I get medics though, I put them on 3, and once I get 3 groups of rines, I push medics back to 4. My CC's are 5 and 6 for the first little while to help me keep up SCV production. Once I get vessels, 5 is now vessels. 6 is usually a command center, 7 is almost exclusively drops (this is a weird habit I have with all 3 races.. I don't know why I do it) and 8-9-0 are comsats. I use the F keys a lot and will usually make my production area F3, or keep a rax on 6 or 7 to help with macro. From what I've seen of the pro's, like Iloveoov, they go back to their base and click+m and I really think that's the best. In TvP my hotkeys are similar, 5 and 6 are CC's, and 3 and 4 are my first 2 facts. When It comes time to push, I drop 5 and 6 (and 7) for the other factories because rallying vultures is so important in Terran pushes. Though even in TvP, I usually double tap 4 to go back to my facts and click produce. Perhaps it's something I should work on, but it works for me. I find it's also very helpful to go back to base to macro because it helps you learn the timings of your queues very quickly and effectively. My Macro slipped a couple times in that video, so I still have much work to do with my macro. | ||
