Hotkeying evo and spire... OK.
Hotkeying say, roach warren, is useless, u just have to do
*click on roach warren
*hit your roach speed hotkey
Why would you do
*click on roach warren
*shift + new roach warren hotkey
*later : hit roach warren hotkey
*hit roach speed hotkey.

You can hotkey it at a time where you have nothing better to do.
You can start the upgrade without moving your screen away from your army.
You can check when the upgrade is done without having to move your screen with a single press of a button.

doesnt happen often :=(
"You can start the upgrade without moving your screen away from your army.

you come back to your main base really often anyway. So why would you hit a new button ? Plus its obvious when roach speed is done.

Last thing about checking timings : if your build is very refined, you dont have to.

Hotkeying hydra den is OK I guess because u have to chain 2 upgrades. (just like evo chamber or spire)

Concerning ROach warren ultra den, inf. pit im more sceptical.

I wonder if it would be worthwhile to use 3 hotkeys, 8 9 0, for drones at 3 respective bases. It'd be handy for dealing with drops... but if you spot a drop early enough in the first place, probably you should just have a group of hotkeyed lings on defense duty ready to help you out. Pulling drones without even looking at your base everytime you see red on the minimap on its way would cost you way too much mining.
