EPTSo far, the results of marine splitting have been ok but not better than normal micro. This is really good for splitting up groups of 10 marines into groups of 3 ish, but it isn't good for splitting up large numbers of marines.
Infested Terran trick. By using mousewheel - Page 12

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. how is this supposed to be a 1:1 rebind when you can reach 20k apm with it? | ||

He said its also d useful to split of zerglings from the main group when getting dropped etc. Dont know if he still uses it nor if he uses it in tournaments. That sounds like a good use. Hover over the first portrait when you have a ton of units selected and give the wheel a scroll and it should deselect a bunch of them while still leaving you with the rest selected. | ||

With this trick, they'll be able to get their snipes off quickly enough to snipe AND kite effectively. It's going to be broken. Whoa I didn't even think of it that way >< | ||

Not really that useful because you can just unbox a bunch of them from your group just as easily though. | ||

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. It's not a matter of keeping a secret, it's a matter of not making it easier for everyone to do. Since it does in fact give the user an unfair advantage, it's wrong to distribute an easy method to the masses because you are increasing the number of people giving themselves an unfair advantage. Better for less people to know how to do it because then you have less people doing it. The real point here is that the only people who will use this are those who are desperate to get wins on the ladder at all costs. Plain and simple you're modifying your race in a way that circumvents the intended game balance. And no I'm not unilaterally deciding what's imbalanced, I'm simply observing a simple fact. Anyone with a brain can look at those videos and recognize that it's imbalanced. | ||

Well, ghosts are too slow to kite, and regular mouse clicks are already quick enough to snipe templar. I don't think this will affect PvT much. It's much more devastating to Zerg. | ||
