So perfect this, and take it off your list of things to do better. It takes like what half an hour to perfect? Might as well. | ||

Edit: Though oddly only with zerg, I guess its the whole muscle memory thing, and its easier to be instinctive with the same images etc that you use to ? I donno, but I cant get terran/toss just right, yet. | ||

It's good to practice it though. It increases your click speed and accuracy of the clicking. Although the above argument also boils back down to mechanics vs strategy argument... | ||

I'm still looking for a map to practice Muta-Micro vs Marines, preferably one where I can group an Overlord with the Mutas. Can somebody help me out? | ||

- your 4 workers all appear below your building - you have exactly 50$ at the start to build a worker(I build my 5th worker then split my 4, unlike some people who do the opposite) - it auto screen-centers you on your building - you can choose to spawn in a random location to practice fast reflexes on where to send your workers(instead of already knowing where you need to click right away) to the minerals. - if you choose zerg you start out with an ovie(and 3 larva if u can manage). countless times i have misclicked with my ovie at the start when i tell it to scout Sorry I didn't actually check these myself but I hope you kept variables such as these in mind to make the map as close to the beginning of a real game as you can. | ||

It's both annoying and amusing at the same time. It sucks having to start over after a perfect split. If you can't split perfectly, the most important thing is just to get the first 3 directly to the closest 3 patches, even if you double up the forth worker. Since you need 7 trips of 8 to make your 6th worker, 3 then 1 then 3 works out just as fast as 4 then 4 at getting > 50 minerals. Getting all 4 only matters for minor things, like making your 9th scv with no delay even when making your depot far away at your ramp. Such things don't really affect timing enough to have a direct, significant impact, but when it's off, it can frustrate you, which certainly will in turn have an effect on the game. | ||

Agree that this isn't useful enough alone to justify the map and hype. However, splits carry more meaning than simply an extra second with 1 mineral... and since people care about things in a non-logical way, it's ok for them to goof around on a ums if they really want to. | ||

I have no idea why people feel the need to be so negative about someone releasing a useful tool like this. | ||
