Cool but I have absolutely zero respect for you after you spammed LZ for about an hour during his stream

The recommended setting doesn't work for me at all. I hate tabbing through production buildings. I feel tabbing is slower when you just need to start one type of units, and the same when producing from all structures. Also I think it's more prone to making mistakes, pressing the wrong key at the wrong building. If that's the same for you, I use:
1 army blob
2-4 to split out spellcasters/units with abilities (tanks for example) or harassing units
5 is every cc
6-0 each type of production building on it's own key, so instead of pressing "4 tab tab tab d d" to make 2 medivacs I go "9 d d"


It has its advantages, since you see the queue of every building at once when you press the hotkey, but I like the individual hotkeys better.

Nice post, some nice information in there.

I've never "spammed" lzgamer

Also I really am not that good, 1800 plat pre wipe, but as far as a simple guide for new players etc, I can help with that

This is a cool little guide. I'm purely a Protoss player, but this is also good advice for those who want to try out Terran.

All i remember is that somebody out there with the ID warturtle or wurturtle or something along those lines spammed LZ for like an entire hour on his stream.

mm It must have been someone on a different Warturtle account with a different identifier. I would never waste an hour spamming LZ.

I do this as well.
Works a lot better for me as I used to play zerg in bw and it's very similar to that.
vZ I usually have:
6: barracks w/ tech lab
7: barracks w/ reactor
8: factory w/ tech lab
9: starport (changes between reactor/tech lab usually)

I don't really like these threads because they seem to give away trade secrets for free. However, this is a shitload of effort for what will probably be an extremely comprehensive guide. Great work!

This is a great start to a great guide! I personally did not know you could hit tab to cycle through unit types within a control group or using Shift + # to append units/buildings to a current control group. I've been used to using shift select and deselect to reassign a control group but I will try to incorporate it in my play.

Suggestion: Regarding your marauder micro, I much prefer to use hold position micro instead of A-attack. I simply move back, hit "H" and my marauders (stalkers, hellions, whatever) and they will attack, then move back, hit "H" again, repeat... It's faster than A-attacking and eliminates your chance for error of unintentionally focus firing a unit and having your marauders run into the enemy.

I also suggest not clumping all of your production buildings into one hotkey, but to split your factories/starports/barracks separately as I find it's faster to cycle through and accurately build units at each production building.

sorry about not working on this lately, I'll get back on it. Had to reinstall SC2 to get replays working again, I wanted to make sure any of the race specific stuff was used in tournaments etc. So expect more work to be coming still reinstalling atm tho

update: Anyway I reinstalled and still can't view replays so guide won't be as good as it could be
