Hey guys. Here's a quick guide on how to make this mouse keybinding only take effect in SC2, windowed or fullscreen.

I suggest anyone do does this micro first practice it with just the left mouse button so they get an idea of when it is appropriate to use shift and when to just hold the hotkey.

used to do the same thing for firing certain guns faster in fps hardly a hack but kinda pointless to use as you would come to rely on it too much to the point that when you go to a tourney can't dl shit on the tournament computers your kinda screwed

Actually, i find it better with Infestor than Ghost after testing it.
Because this trick only allow ghost to snipe all at once, not unloading all their snipe energy in one shot.
But for Infestors and Infested terran, an infestor can launch their 8 ITs instantly.

3d part program used to change keybinds. I very much doubt that Blizzard will look kindly on this. Banable offense surely. There is a reason why you cant bind the scroll in the game for the set keys.

I can see them putting a 1 second/0.5 second cool down on snipe/infested Terrans because of this, it's simply not balanced to be able to deal that much damage instantly.

It's been mentioned a lot of times in the thread that this program does a 1:1 rebinding. For example, if you were to take the razer StarCraft II products, you could do exactly the same thing.

If anything here was banable, then anyone using a custom hotkey setup should also be banned.

doing multiple things with one key is a macro and thats pretty much what this thread is about. so... no, this shouldnt be allowed.

this isnt macro, since it just changes wheel from scroll to left click.


it changes wheel up and down to left click, right?
so 2 actions into 1.


It changes each of the two separate actions into another separate action for each. The fact that these two separate actions happen to be for the same thing (left click) is of no consequence.

To the ones saying this is illegal because you rebind keys, is it also illegal to swap left/right mousebutton for a lefthanded person or use a mouse with more than 2 buttons + scrollwheel?

FUCK ghosts are already WAY to good against Zerg hive tech, now they're a direct overwhelming counter.

Just... fuck.

Would not change anything for Ghost.
The power is in the fact that all ghost snipe at the same time.
When you snipe normaly with the normal way, only one ghost snipe each time you click.

Although not as dazzling as the Snipe, this can also be used for de-selecting workers in the wire-frame, which I do when I transfer workers. Just mouse-over the 7th worker after right clicking a bunch to the minerals, right click on a gas, mouseover the 4th of the remaining six, and send the remaining 3 to the other gas. It's faster than clicking three times twice.

Here's a screenshot I posted earlier in the thread with infested terrans, in case people missed it.

You really are doing the community a disservice by posting a guide like this. If this exploit can't be nerfed and isn't a bannable offense, it's really up to the honor of each individual player to refrain from using it given that it's undeniably imbalanced. If you use this trick to snipe or spawn IT then you are giving yourself an unfair advantage that wasn't intended by the game designers. You should be more concerned with improving as a player and playing fair games than getting wins through unfair methods.

Usually in games you see ghosts vs broodlord tech and usually works quite well. But this, this is going to raise that effectiveness to the roof, will be very strong if allowed in tournaments.

I hope it get fixed, seems sooooo OP for snipe.
But i think adding 2s cooldown to snipe would kill the spell and it wouldnt really fx the problem (you still could cast 12 insta snipes with 12 ghosts)

Once something is out there you can't put it back in the box. Do you think we could just silence something like this to death and prevent people from knowing about it? (it will be our little secret *nods*) By publicizing it you equalize the playing field and raise awareness so that everyone can decide for themselves whether to use it.

Also, who are you to decide when something is 'undeniably imbalanced'? There are lots of tricks out there, why should this one not be allowed to use? If it is somehow broken then tournaments will simply ban it, no need to root it out beforehand.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

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.

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.

Everything is legal even hacking
