I thought valks glide after shooting its projectile where you direct the glide in the opposite direction?

That's what the patrol command used in the opposite direction does.

Hey, instead of 1a2a3a4a, do any of you guys know of anyone who does 1p2p3p4p? I heard it's 0.5 seconds faster response time from your units to attack so this could be a huge difference.

Shinee said valk back shot is:
1) Move toward muta
2) When you are in range, patrol click backwards but in roughly a 45degree angle.
3) watch as your valks fly away while shooting missiles out of their ass
depends on what direction you attack from though

Thanks for valk info .

I 3a43a5a6a7a which I find waay easier than 1a2a3a4a5a. Just use 1 and 2 as units that you normally move command instead of a-move (lurkers, defilers, vessels, tanks in tvz, arbs, shuttles, ht).
Why would I play sctoo when I can play BW?

I thought it was faster for the initial shot, but slower for the following shots...?

Blackman was known for using 8p9p0p if I remember correctly.

Oh my goodness thankyou so much. I've always wondered how to do it and since I play mech with valks early which I lose quite easily to everything this is going to help a lot.

When I go devourer/ultra/ling, I'm never sure how to hotkey my army. I always set my zerglings to 8/9/0 but I'm wondering if there is a more efficient want to do it.

Edit: Also, I've been playing a lot of Protoss lately and don't know how to counter devourers, because they are way too strong for my corsairs to handle, so help!?

LOL, Scouts, believe it or else. Everyone's favorite joke unit, but they are designed to take down high-armor, high-HP air units, which devs definitely are.

Maelstrom in combo with Archons or psi-storm also nice.

Okay, I'll try that, thanks.
