i remember once it happened me to have like 6 templars (5 of them stacked) and instead of storming a few hydras i storm all my templars, then walk the 6th into the storm eventually killing it with a dragoon attack misclick because it was still alive after that. god.

I hate telling a group of vultures to lay mines, moving away, and coming back only to discover that they are being killed while only one of them laid a mine.

- Walling in @ nat on Andromeda and noticing that I misplaced my rax, cancelling at 90% just to realize a second later that I could have lifted the goddamn building

Another one I just remembered that's pretty random, for some reason I often tell my dropship to unload whatever it's unloading, then shift+click it to a random point on the map (instead of back to my base...) where I either lose it for ages or it dies

I don't play with the minimap set on enemy = red, so sometimes at the start of the game especially in TvZ, I open the ally screen to check what colour my opponent is, so that if his overlord appears on the minimap I'll notice. After opening the alliance screen, I press escape to close it one too many times, and end up cancelling my rax as well.

-9pool. Right as pool finishes, I make 3 drones

Thats a fail but what I have done multiple times is an epic fail:

9 pool, then accidentally make 3 drones right as pool finishes...then in a fluster I cancel all three eggs!

Stuck with no lings or drones until more larva appear

Going 9 pool and then realizing as soon as the spawning pool is finished, I forgot to make an overlord because I spammed too much.

I'm always desperate to spend money in TvZ so I usually end up buying medic energy.

ROFL chill, the "i" hotkey thing on the machine shop got me so many times.

Wait, you're not supposed to get medic energy? WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING ALL THIS TIME?

I scout a P FE, so cancel my pool at 90% so I can get a 3rd hatchery faster. It's only a second later when I realize that I was already at 300 minerals.

I'm setting up this epic flank with lurkerling, and everything goes right until T stims and simply runs his army out of the way. I forgot ling speed.

Rallied my hatcheries to outside T base so my Mutas get there quickly. They end up flying over M&Ms.

Get sort of sunken busted and almost lose my nat. Transition into 3 gas lurkerling, but find myself constantly low on gas the entire game. Watch replay and see that I forgot to replace gas drones in the nat.

Accidentally researched EMP first in TvZ because I forgot which icon irradiate was.

1a2a3aed M&Ms to outside Z base, and went back to macro. Check back a second later to find my hotkeys empty.

Interestingly enough, I don't think I really make these epic failures as P anymore.

Because I dont use the hotkey to build defilers, if i dont have enough gas for them I would spam the defiler button and when 150 gas comes up it builds the defiler and instantly cancels it.

(Because the defiler and cancel button is in the same spot).
