Max mmb sensitivity scrolling + pretty high mouse sensitivity. Quick flicks will usually go to naturals and 3rd's, while in-base scrolling is still controllable, but outside of that, minimap clicking.

Screen edge scrolling feels like wasted cursor movement to me.

I wonder if people realise that you can increase the sensitivity of the MMB scrolling option???

Thats what i use and it is in no way too slow, and my mouse doesn't need to go crazy, just deft little moves...

EDIT:

Side scrolling for close places, minimap for far places. I dunno, seems kind of inefficient to do it any other way... Middle click goes too fast imo.

I use a combination of mini map clicking and side scrolling (sensitivity on max).

my friends hate how i play. I use the arrow keys (although much more in BW) and the side of the screen as well. Im sure it is putting a ceiling on my level of play, but i feel more comfortable with the arrow keys.

This poll surprises me. I had thought that about 99% of people would click around the map using the minimap in conjunction with control groups.

I use the middle mouse the majority of the time, and map click and side scroll only very occasionally.

I've had my DPI set very high for several years. Scrolling from the top to the bottom of Metalopolis is about one inch of mouse movement which still feels like a lot to me.

I'd like to be able to push the slider above 100%

MMB is the superior way if mastered, it is smooth and you can position your view wherever you want at the beginning of a battle without any possible over-shoots or errors.

for me it is due to dota/HoN, so it transferred to SC2 :>
Zerg need heavy buffs from Tier 1 to tier 3, against Terran and Protoss. blizzard needs to get on the ball or lose SC2 as an eSports venue.

I use the middle mouse scrolling almost exclusively for watching replays because in an actual game, I hate having to move my index/middle finger off the left and right mouse button. I guess the people who put their middle finger on the middle button and their ring on the right can benefit from it though.

For people with thumb buttons on their mice, have any of you guys tried setting the click scroll button from the MMB to one of the thumb buttons? I find it slightly awkard to click with the middle button, but I'm thinking that using the thumb might be more comfortable?

Combination of everything except the middle mouse button. Mainly use side screen mouse scrolling though.

Pretty sure everyone is going to use side scrolling with the mouse as well as clicking with the minimap.

Thats pretty much it. Though I've seen some people also use the keyboard.

Is it possible to remap MMB (Mouse 3) to Mouse 4? Thumb button that is?

sidescroll, double hotkey tapping + minimap for playing, mainly middle-mouse and minimap for observing while casting.

concerning the latter i still don't get why so many casters don't do that and thus have way less than decent observing.
