What if I change right click to "space bar"? You can change your bindings. Obviously. Watch any tournament and they will often speak of players needing to change the key bindings to what they are comfortable with. Even a modicum of rational thought indicates this is nothing "illegal' or against any rules that Blizzard has ever published. | ||

I predict one of the two following things to happen now: A) Nothing. However whoever does this will be catched by an automatic anti-hack script someday and you won't be able to talk yourself out of this situation then. B) Patch that puts a global cooldown on these abilities (likely if a better known player starts to do it). | ||

i mean the whole "its in driver" argument is pretty weak, i can do macro for my KB, dont even need to be complex, just spam 1 key to be 1-1. but thats doesnt means its legal. it should be fixed, banned by blizzard and all tournaments | ||

I'm not really sure why this is a thread or why anyone cares what key anyone else binds to an action. Use whatever is quickest and most comfortable for you. Also people calling for banning cuz they don't like other peoples hotkeys are retarded. ......you dont see the difference? Either you haven't watched the Snipe video in the OP, you are completely blind, or youre completely in denial. Of course you can scroll the mouse scroll faster than you can left click. Each tick on the mouse scroll counts as a left click, so that means if you scroll up completely one time thats probably 10 left clicks in the time it would normally take to do 2 left clicks | ||

It's even more hilarious that even with all the evidence, you continue to believe that this is not legit. Morrow posted earlier that he discovered this 6 months ago and approached the TL admins regarding it - since it's a 1-to-1 binding, it was considered tournament-legal. Artosis even mentioned in the GSL stream about the "new infestor technique". Consider the implications - if it's not legit, won't GOM issue a statement? Won't Blizzard say something? | ||

 When the Snipe nerf goes live all that is left are the infestor spam. Which is not the big problem tbh - the mass fast snipe is. *me thinking that this discusion helped to get the snipe nerfed* Sincerly | ||

It's different because there's no 1:1 action? No, because I can hold down "D" for drones, son. | ||

As it wasn't a macro, just a hot key change they were fine with it. The reason I'm not using this is because it was very dependant on your hardware. Because I was spamming actions so fast it actually kept listening to those actions seconds after I stopped. So basically it was way too buggy on my computer. so the buggy part was basically like this. i spammed out snipes like crazy, it worked for about 2 seconds and then all my ghosts went on small cooldown with the snipe, then it started selecting the ultralisks for example instead, and it just kept spam clicking the standard left click select command on whatever i hovered over for a few seconds. so i was giving orders about 3-4 times quicker than my computer could actually handle in starcraft 2, so scrolling for 1 second gave commands that kept going for about 2-3 more seconds after i stopped scrolling :p However in the replay on cytos computer (he had stronger computer than mine) after he fixed this too, he managed to reach up to about 3000~ apm in the replay spamming infested terrans xD increase the vertical scrolling in windows mouse wheel option, it may fix bug. i read something like that for the keyboard too-on reddit  , if you increase repeat rate, you can use all your larva instantly, much faster. the delay between pressing a letter and it the 2nd letter showing up is much shorter | ||

I personally do not believe that this is legal. Why? Because you cannot change this setting within the StarcCraft2 Options and you have to use third party programs, even if it is just your mouse driver. Probably you will never be banned or warned for it, but there is in my opinion at least a slight risk using that. | ||

This was mentioned by an earlier poster in this thread, but Nestea appeared to be using it against DRG in the round of 16. Artosis made a comment during his cast as the infested terrans were popping out very fast.. He called the technique 'new' | ||

This was my thought process as well, but other people mentioned that using a 1-to-1 binding is not illegal at all according to their TOS. I guess our best bet would be to wait until Blizzard says something on their forums OR follow the rules of big tournaments like MLG or GSL. | ||
