I'm sure there are all sorts of tricks and key strokes a lot of people never figured out.

I thought some of the stuff here is known but others like drone's post for example are amazing.though lifting the cc will cause you to lose mining time lol.

shift+number will add the currently selected units to that number hotkey / control group.


Isn't this pretty well known? If you don't know this then you need to rebuild your control groups from scratch every time new units pop.

Or if there is another way to add units to existing groups, this thread is the perfect place to mention it. Anyone? ^^

I've heard of shift+number but don't really use it. I always end up rebuilding my control groups which is hard to keep up with -> eventually give up and just box and a-move -> micro during battle lol. I think shift+number is the better option in the long term though.

There is a guy operating the missile turret - look carefully at the wireframe.

You can "ping" on the minimap in 2v2 games (I think it's alt+click).

You can use the move command on an unit and put it on another unit - and it will follow that other unit (although a bit slow). It's useful for observers and overlords, especially in 2v2 when you want your units to follow ally's units.

Infested terrans die when you attack move (at the spot where you ordered them to attack).

You can set rally point to a nydus canal.

You can EMP comsat stations, to make the opponent lose scan for some time (I think this happened in some TvT where one player massed wraiths)

When a dropship/shuttle/overlord with units inside is flying somehwere, you can click on the units in it, so they will drop, but the dropship/shuttle/overlord will keep flying.

You think that's bad? I played BW for years thinking you had to make zealots and dragoons as protoss. Then I discovered you could win just by making DTs.


This reminded me about all the discussions about Protoss being the weakest race, when all they did was zealots and dragoons and usually forgot observers... you needed Bisu for the "revolution". I cringe every time I still see a protoss forget obs timing though.

Are you able to right click on the minimap to rally? or just in frame?


You can right click on the minimap.


WOOOOOOOOOOAH well my life has been turned upside down today.


you cant right click during pause though, because this would crash the game if I remember correctly ^^

unless I'm mistaken, you're right. It should be alt+click on minimap to ping.
