Windows has built in settings, since many people are left handed. Set the mouse to left handed and you get reversed left/right click. | ||

Most players end up using 3 fingers to do the following(my assumption): a. tap between production b. select army c. use army abilities d. build units from tapped structers. Tapping is usually with 2 fingers and a 3rd finger is usually used for army control. This results in steps: Step 1: tap, Step 2: select army, Step: Attack/harass/defend with army. Step 3: tap, Step 4: build units, Step 5: select army, Step 6: use army special ability. Flash is able to do something special which cuts some corners. Step 1: tap, Step 2: Build SCV(S) + Marine(A) while tapping, Step 3: Check army + attack + tap CC + build SCV and Marine + go back to attacking with "A" + select CC/Orbital + build SCV + select army + attack - and so on because all the actions result in him not moving his ring finger from A only to hit S one key over. | ||

Focus fire is done with left click after pressing"a". U dont want to missclick ground and move ur army into them instead. I forgot its an option in cpanel | ||

You know, you would be completely right, if not for one thing. He is Flash! :D Seriously though, if you have nothing to contribute and find this uninteresting, find another thread. I find this one fascinating. | ||

Redt(poster with 6 posts total) can only be short for reddit. Somebody who didn't like the video there must have seen the tlnet comment on it and jumped over here for the downvote, aww, no downvote here without a valid reason why and contributing  | ||

It seemed suspicious because this thread is 3 days old and there has not been any negative comments on it in 3 days with 68 posts and over 10,000 views. Your post and the one above you was made in 30 minutes time from when I posted my zoomed in video on reddit where it was commented that this duscussion was on reddit. That and you only had 6 posts of post history when you posted. If you aren't from reddit then my bad. | ||

People's hands are different. I saw someone wonder why people use the tip of their pinky fingers for ctrl and shift. The answer for me personally is that I find it physically impossible to use the root of my pinky finger or the palm for ctrl while at the same time maintaining my normal range, and while at the same time maintaining my preferred setup of having my ring finger resting on "a" at all times (except when pressing Q and tab). Some of it is probably due to using the pinky in the same manner while playing the guitar. I can reach from ctrl to the 9-key if I really push it, but during games I only hotkey up to 8. | ||
