This may sound really dumb, but what exactly do people mean if they talk about shift+queue stalker blink? I mean in what situation and how should it be used? Like in move to certain spot then shift + blink ?

I really dont see it lol .. would be nice if someone could explain this to me hehe thx

basically you can queue up a blink, like you want to jump up a ridge, you can click next to the ridge, then shift-queue blink up the ridge, and then do something else on the other side, attack move maybe.

dunno if this is obvious! but i learned to drone harder at the beginning of games even against the 4gate and get units last minute. unless of course its super early pressure or 2gate. I guess just knowing when to drone. Always made too many units and got miffed on econ


this !!!
drone drone !
after that ..

People keep talking about ctrl right clicking =ing an attack move. I like hotkeying units to 98, so this would be very useful for me. But whenever I try it, it just plain doesn't work. Was it patched out? Do I need to use a different scheme? What?

I'm like 99% sure that was patched out a long time ago when everyone kept getting pissed about it. I could be wrong however.

i'm not sure if anyone already mentioned it but i just realized that workers can get through units without gettin blocked just by clicking the mineral in direction...
of course it's not really that big of a deal and there are not really that much things you can do with that information...
but especially against protoss in early stages walling of with buildings and 1 or 2 units it's good to know if you wanna get into the base to scout...

I just found out fungal growth reveals cloaked units. It's probably already been said, but it is very useful

Banelings on move command are better than attack command banelings.

They won't blow up on anything that is infront (eg; when a terran MMM ball has marauders at the front), and instead die when they go like in the middle of the army due to auto attk by marines

they can surround the enemy instead of just all exploding into the first one they see.

imagine a scary marine maruader ball vs 6 banelings:
Attack Move = 6 banes blowing into the marauder standing in the front, terran still kinda scary
Move = 6 banes walking past the marauders and blowing up beside the marines as they die. ball is now less scary.

Scenario:
TvT and you and your opponent have tank/marine/marauder. It is lategame with both players having their side of the map with plenty of orbital commands. Your enemy is positioned well and has sieged up his ridiculous amount of siegetanks.

Tip:
Having so many orbitals allows you to save up energy for scans/mules more easily. So before you move in for the kill, scan his army and drop some mules into his bioball so his own tanksplash will soften his army quite allot. Or choose to drop some in the tanks to have the same effect. Your push will be quite stronger especially when it is a 200 food vs 200food army battles, every little thing helps.

Pressing W on my keyboard to select all of my warpgates. So much easier than hotkeying them to 6.
So close, and yet so far

I learned from day[9] tv that towers (with detectors) have detect range much bigger that actual attack range. One turret in mineral line is enough to help repeal cloaked banshee.
