^ I had a look and couldn't find it but there was a Day9 daily that said just that. It was really good advice at the time and still is. Have a rhythm to look at supply, money, minimap, CC/whatever.

I think he called it the taps or something. Anyway point being that's good advice for new/rising players.


It was the mental checklist

From what I've seen, progamers who stream (with camera in front of them) they keep looking at the minimap like once every 5-6 seconds (stephano plays that way).

Always turn on friendly/ allied colors. It makes friendly units green and enemy red.
That is EXTREMELY helpful visual aid as sometimes blue can be drowned out by the terrain.

You see that red ominous thing coming at you... Yah... action is needed...

filter's bronze to master thread on here said that every time you make a unit, look at the minimap. follow this religiously for like 3 games and your minimap awareness will go up 10x

Play without sound

Without the warnings to rely on you have to use your minimap

When im driving my car i constantly look down and to the left to spot how fast im going not that i particularly care but just to train my eyes to do it naturally so when i play sc2 it becomes easier
