I see people categorizing different players in S-level and A-level etc, which I presume to be similar to code-S and code-A now seen in the GSL for sc2. Is there a list of players who are officially in this S-level division and where can I find this list? I also heard that S-level for bw is a lot more established and less volatile than Code-S in sc2 is this true? If yes/no, why is that? Thanks, sorry if I said something silly I know nothing about broodwar but I'm very curious | ||

Thanks, sorry if I said something silly I know nothing about broodwar but I'm very curious There is no official list, the scene is not divided like it is in SC2. However, due to the nature of how "figured out" BW is, the top tier players tend to perform more consistently than those in SC2. In my opinion, S-class has a stronger meaning and applies to a smaller number of players in BW than in SC2, but others may disagree. | ||

I believe the spire goes down at 6:30 or so, perhaps a little bit earlier. Mutas pop out at 8:30-8:45. It's been very long since I checked it, may have changed because of patches. | ||

Generally, my spire completes by about 9:30-11 mins. You can expect mutas as early as 8:30, but standardly they come at around 10:30. | ||

Often, I find my hands on my keyboard to be in an extremely uncomfortable position whenever I am hotkeying units and buildings past the number 5. When I go to press CTRL 7 for example, my hand is stretched far and this has led me to make many mistakes while hotkeying my units late in games. I would like to ask any of you out there, what is the most comfortable way of keying units? Do you ALL use control and number to designate a control group? Is there an alternative method that I am not aware of? Can there be a different way to hotkey stuff? Like maybe using shift instead of ctrl, with ctrl playing the role of shift? I would really appreciate any help. Also, is it ok to change all the hotkeys in the game to something that makes more sense to me? Like for example, changing zergling speed to "S" because it makes sense in my head, and so on.. | ||

Like for example, changing zergling speed to "S" because it makes sense in my head, and so on.. I changed a couple things, such as remapping the ~ button to be Ctrl group 0. Also, I also put Q to be control group 9, as I play toss, q is useless for me. And for the most part, I use Shift to hotkey everything, rarely Control, so thats a bit helpful. And there are many guides on TL about different hotkey setups. Search "hotkeys" or "layout" in the search bar and something should come up | ||

Like for example, changing zergling speed to "S" because it makes sense in my head, and so on.. Yes its ok to change your settings to whatever it suits you. For example, i think that tyler(nony) has the weirdest hotkey settings known to mankind. When you say you have to stretch to press 7 - just think about it, every person on earth has to stretch to do it. You are not the exception. It just takes a lot of practice and building up your muscle memory so you could use your hotkeys fluently and effortlessly. The most comfortable way of keying units is the one you will practice and get used to it. Most of players use one to three army groups and at least one to three for producing units. You can also use camera hotkeys and hotkey some important upgrade buildings, its all about what you want to do and how fast you want to be able to do it. There are some alternatives (W for all the warpgates, etc...). You can switch your ctrl with shift in game settings (hotkey settings). I wouldn't do that. Good luck. | ||

It would depend on how many cannons you plan on making and what and how many units you plan on making from that gateway, and beyond that, what you plan on following up with after those things, i would think. | ||

TL;DR: Does an extractor under construction count as a building when it comes to ending the game? | ||
