Should I simply still go with the FD aggression? Or get 2nd factory / starport for aggression? Or just expand? GRRRR I hate 12 Nexus builds, such a coinflip. | ||

However if I am already building my tank from the FD what should I do? Since I’ve heard people saying that 12 nexus > 2 fact since the aggressive from the 2 fact comes way too late in which the Protoss can defend it with ease.

You can do starport aggression, teching faster or take an extra expansion since it'll be a while before the toss can move out due to the lack of observers. | ||

Everybody practices 1a2a3a4a, or 5sz6sz7sz8sz9sz0sz, which is good for your left hand. Also some people here like a game like popoint + Show Spoiler + http://www.ebaumsworld.com/games/play/1145/ 1. A flash based game where one needs to use both hands (i.e. one hand on keyboard and one using mouse), i.e. a game where you need to use both your keyboard and mouse. 2. or a UMS map for practicing both hands at the same time (I don't want to focus on strategy, or BOs, or tactics or anything like that). Would anyone have a suggestion? | ||

GRRRR I hate 12 Nexus builds, such a coinflip. if you scout it late, there are 2 ok responses: 1 fac double so if you made tank and scouted him last, get mines and double expand. the other option is iloveoov build, like you said get starport after expo and start harassing also read: 12 nexus response | ||

Would anyone have a suggestion? You could play Osu, and use mouse for movement and zx for the mouse presses. It's good for mouse accuracy and speed, and your fingers are tapping non stop in fast beatmaps. Plus it's really fun ;D | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/My5zmrk.gif) I had exactly the same thing happen to me today on that spot. My stack consisted of about 6 goons and 4 zealots. I tried spam clicking; spam stop and spam hold; and attacking the stuck units, but nothing worked. In the end I gave up trying to spam commands and made a shuttle to ferry them off each other  | ||

It just can't be coincidence that it happened to me on that exact spot? | ||

It's happened to me on that ramp and others, I call it "the vortex" and it just seems to happen now and then when too many units are trying to get up/down the ramp and they freak out and suck others in. | ||

(so that the units get the miss chance) I would guess that any part of the unit being behind the doodad constitutes it having the 53% chance to be hit. I don't actually know but this is a very easy thing to test. | ||
