I'm very certain that nada does it by very quickly selecting individual dropships, pressing U and clicking on the dropships... That's where 350 apm pays off :D

he's probably selecting dropships individually, exerting his lightning speed dexterity.

I'm willing to bet he spikes way above that when he's unloading

NaDa unloads them all at once with 1 click. Not one by one.

select them all, bind them to a hotkey then press the key twice so that the screen centers then unload in the middle of the screen



This might be the easiest one but according to what i saw in nada fpvods he clicks in the "gravity" as others mentionned cauz he always separates his dropships to have a better "sight" of the "center"

Edit : And also how do u find the very center of ur screen ?


Anyway so much better i tried ur tip but it's still kinda hard u must micro them very fast w/ more than 3 dropships don't you ?

glue a small black dot to the exact center of your moniter or something like the CS players do.. haha eventually your hand will be able to find "exact center" by itself

I tried doing the unload with one dropship, but what is the point of it? When I did it "sucessfully" it basically unloaded them, but only one kept going (Tried 3 dropships full of zealots), for 3 dropshpis or less isn't it just a lot easier to u click on dropship? I'm not that great at terra vs terran so i guess this skill isn't key to me but what happens when u do u "center gravity shit" click on middle of dropships?
too easy

it is NOT a hard thing to do. even I can do it consistently (and i'm barely average player). just dont click too fast. to be safe make sure the units are within range of your screen because it is the easier to judge where the middle-front of your units might be.

lol, it's not the center of gravity... It's the geometric center of the formation of your dropships, which is why this gets hard to do when you have a bunch of dropships flying in an odd pattern.

In boxer vods most times when dropping metal (+4 dships for sure) que takes some sec/s to bind each dship to a hotkey...scan, send them there and circle thorugh dships while clicking frames....seems the safest way (or else press U on each dship)
If i were on a tv game i wouldnt go for gravity drop... specially if you can get stormed or tanks splashed , or we
