The photo of a not very happy Geoff Keighley escorting Kanye West through E3 has to be the highlight of the event so far. What a world.

having autoattack on or off isn't relevant to my issue, i used autoexec.cfg to make my s key a sequence of "stop, attack, click" so every time i pressed s it'd cancel animations then start a new attack command on wherever my mouse was (which worked for denies as well)

i can kind of emulate this behavior with s just being stop by having rightclickrepeat on and holding click on targets but now i can't do the same for denies without turning on right click to deny, which sucks because it stops your hero whenever you right click an allied unit when it'son

Wait, is that how people do the super fast animation cancel for auto attacks? I never took the time to figure out exactly what people were doing there.

i right click fast and press s fast
but generally you don't really want to do it unless you're in a free lane or pulling creeps

spam right click but also spam "s" .. i find it more comfortable to last hit that way but that's just me but i just do the normal last hit/deny if i have a free farm lane

you can actually still do it without mass rightclicking if you had the option "autoattack nearest enemy unit" on and the closet is the one you wanna kill nd the next closest unit is far away that it won't mess your heroes aggro

i do this alot cause i have the "attack nearest enemy unit" option on or something so my hero just attacks whatever creeps gets close unless i press hold position

you're so judgmental fk u

it's comfortable; who likes right clicking that much

also it was nice for illusion micro i could just order all of them to attack move somewhere by holding control and pressing s while hovering over somewhere

i got it from this post; i also use the custom scaling and colors from this post

animation cancel spamming was definitely not a thing in starcraft though and that's more click intensive than anything

i still click spam to move places (well i used to until i turned on the right click repeat option, now i do it by holding rightclick)

Which is why if you had played that or diablo instead of being a pleb your hands would be used to spamming instead of having these baby hands that can't handle it.

what? i played bw and some sc2; i said animation cancel spamming is more click intensive than the starcraft spamming

also i'm pretty sure the hold-right-click-to-repeat is a diablo feature

idk ur right hand's gonna have issues some day and youll wish you used papa tuna's ezmode methods

Maybe that got patched in. Diablo 1 and 2 had a point where you just needed to keep clicking forever. Many a mouse was lost to stop the Lord of Terror.

Edit: Also can confirm all that clicking will catch up with you. Stretch out before you game.

Why do people auto attack instead of clicking?
