I spend the first half of my day pretty hungry because I generally do class work/go to class/study before about 4pm. After then, I'll come back and play a game or two before dinner (usually my first proper meal). I WILL LOSE THESE GAMES. Then after dinner I go 4/0. The moral, EAT BEFORE YOU PLAY. If you're starving, you'll play badly. | ||

Once your speedlings have moved past the target, a-move for the win. This works because your speedlings are faster than the banelings. The banelings get dragged behind like a deadly kite, while the speedlings soak up fire and form a wall behind your target. Clearing out a mineral line can be hilarious: you run the speedlings to the far entrance, he panics and moves all the harvesters out the other entrance... into the banelings. wow, sounds useful | ||

If a marine and a marauder are standing right ontop of eachother, and a tank attacks one, the marauder will invariably be hit for (99% of) the full 50 damage, from the tank's 35+15, whereas the marine will take his 35, no matter which one is targeted. | ||

I didn't know this thing before and I missed ton of FG because of this. Is this the same with corrupt? I have the feeling this might explain why I did hit a few times in some games | ||

You can Ctrl+right click to issue an A-move (instead of going A+left click) Hard to adapt after years of BW... | ||

EDIT: I forgot my contribution: If you want to preform a concave, it is easiest to do it by moving your troops in a line to a certain direction, then hitting stop. When they stop they will all be in one giant line that should be at a right angle to where your opponent will come from. EDIT: If you are under attack at your mineral line by lings or zealots early on, and have fewer units to defend, grab all of your probes and select attack, then mine, then attack, then mine, with a few game seconds in between each command. What you are doing is changing their priorities so that unless your opponent has queued attacked every single one of your workers, their attacking units will face your probes, then switch to your units, then to the probes, then to your units, effectively making them only hit your actual attackers about half the time. You can also trap units between the probes because they will ignore pathing to mine, then attack, then ignore pathing, then attack. | ||
