Top right from bottom left... I dunno if you guys are like this, but I don't use my arm, and I barely use my wrist when I'm selecting units or microing. I use my thumb and my ring/pinky finger to move the mouse. Draggin from top right to bottom left feels a lot more easier when I use the mouse this way
There's a hole in the world like a great black pit, and the vermin of the world inhabit it... and its morals aren't worth what a pig could spit, and it goes by the name of Reddit.

Theoritically, the best way should be relative to where your units are to your mouse, you might be able to squeeze are couple more apms out of it. =)

bottom left to top right is the most natural easy movement for right handed people, vice versa horizontally for lefties.

top left to bottom right just always seemed right to me.
but if you can utilize multiple ways of dragging a box, thats sort of like being ambidextrous. i wish i could do that, even if it speeded up certain actions by fractions of a second.

I can't use top left to bottom right at all as efficiently as top right to bottom left. It's to writing with your left hand when you're right handed. I'm right handed by the way.
