Hi.
Made this short video. Showing by changing simple setting on your mouse. That enables you to you to spawn infested terrans very very fast.


This can be used for warp ins aswell.

*EDIT*
Did my own follow up on the ghost sniper round with scroll.


I changed(rebind) my wheel up & down to left click.
Program i used to change my mouse setting. for thous who don't have software/Hardware that supports it.
http://www.highrez.co.uk/downloads/XMouseButtonControl.htm

Select you Wheel up and Wheel down as left click from the list.
And presse apply.
Some mouse software can be used insted of this program. Check your software before installing this.

Yeah I experimented with this type of setting as well. For a bit more description if you set one of your mouse buttons to spam the left click repeatedly (similar to how holding down a keyboard button works) stuff like infested terran spam can be done more quickly. Probably most useful when you have some infestors deep in enemy territory that you want to launch a counter attack in the midst of another battle.

For terran it allows ghosts to instagib T3 zerg units

1. You really have no solid detailed instructions on what you did for this to happen.

2. I think this may be a "hack" if it requires a 3rd party program to do.

From what I can gather, you simply rebind 'mouse wheel up' and 'mouse wheel down' to left click then hold down your hotkey for infested terran while repeatedly scrolling up and down.

Edit: In response to your second point, it's a 1-1 key rebind so it should be okay. I'm not sure if Blizzard has ever made an official statement on the matter though.

It's technically not a hack because each keypress corresponds to one action. So long as it isn't automated(which scrolling mousewheel back and forth isn't), it's not a hack. It is in somewhat of a grey area though, although that's the price we pay for customizable hotkeys.

In regards to your second point, I think it's legal. It requires keystrokes for every action, and a sequence of keystrokes is not automatically started by only one action.

I remember during a Day9 daily, Day9 mentioned Morrow does the same trick for his ghost snipes. That way he doesn't have to shift click and deal with the tricky AI.

Doesn't snipe glitch if you hold down the R key for snipe and click? As in you have to press it separately each time.

Shift instead of hold down r key.
