I think this is incredibly valid.

I'm a music major on the classical guitar and this is _the_ most common way to increase the speed of the fingers. The metronome method - Learn something perfect, flawless at a very slow speed, taking care of every detail. Then, go up two notches on the metronome, then down one, then up two, etc. If you dont rush this method, you can gain massive speed increases, sometimes double or more when the music requires it. Great musicians can play anything they normally play much faster. Your just increasing your limit, so you have even more breathing room. If you can have less large jumps in speed, I would totally do this.

Practice doesnt make perfect. Perfect Practice makes perfect.

Edit : ^^ it seemed I was typing my response as you were. Cool that it made us chime up the same idea!

Actually, there is about a million analogies to make. Typing being one we can all relate to. I can type alright at about 80 wpm or so, but I could guaranteed no mistakes at 40 wpm.

i do the same thing when learning a new song on bass or whatever

The other program gives the user an unfair advantage. This mod does not. One is cheating, the other is not. That said, you might get banned for multiple accounts.

To be expected. Hey Kwark, pm me some contact info if you want the completed version of that click fixer. Stupid me seems to have a habit of trying to improve things that people don't want to be improved. :p

I wouldnt consider this cheating since it can only be used in training or mutalaly agreed matches.
I tried it at 2x speed vs computer. it was kinda fun playing starcraft where everything instantly happens really fast

Its also a great program to try on other games or even java games on the internet.

I you use this with entropy2.0 AI you will have a decent challenge because the AI uses standard pushes. Not as good as a real player but you get strong by making your weakest link stronger, not your strongest link strongest. So if you are C- player like me and you have really bad mechanics the this is the best training for you. Dont believe me? i've never been able to pass the 3400 mark. So if this season i get to C or C+ i'll know that the training has paid the price.

Yeah. As a clarification, before getting back onto topic, I already had Eggplant, then made wok, hoping to switch over permanently. Unfortunately, request to remove Eggplant was never honored until today, so I did have the 2nd account through which I made those posts. The 2nd account wasn't a response to the ban, nor was it a secret.

On topic: I really want to try this with entropy2.0. Standard computer pushes are hard enough at 2x. (Target firing against m&m with hydras or goons is seriously nontrivial!)

I'll race you to defeatism... you win.

Entropy isn't really that much harder. Racine's rebel's is impossible though.

Really? I find that the computer rushes are super hard :|. Could you link me to that? Just want to see how much more impossible that is.

I have tried it... on 2x... CRAP... On the first try i thought wtf.. it is making me worse.. then i decided to play vs pc on normal speed... OMG it improves your EAPM a looooot and your decisions will be made more quicker... I had my best APM ever..

Though i think that the cons of this thing is that you only play against computers... who are so bad...

But still you can do the whatever build you want :D

I say everyone should try it... Also those who say it is cheating... HELL no its not! Why is it cheating? :O Cuz you are playing faster? EVERYONE can do it, and its not something vs another, its vs computers... xD

TRY IT! gl

I think this is a good way to improve your reflex.

I have tried it on 1.5x, after 10 games, I change it back to default, and I,m starting to look at everything in slow motion now, never before in my life I have witness vultures with Ion Upgrade moved soo freakin slow.

Does this work for multiplayer if all the players have 2x speed on?

Edit: Just tried it. It works

Yup, though I,m pretty sure you must turn off antihack first. Its ok if you want to play it on LAN with friends, but I dont recommend you tried it on ICCUP.
