Anyone else having this?
If you can, turn on "hold fire" on the ghosts before starting to snipe with them (default hotkey is F, I think?) That happened to me for a while but having them hold fire seemed to fix it. I think it's because they'll autoattack after the first few waves if you snipe quick enough, and then they have to wait until they're done auto-ing to execute any snipe commands.
Jesus, I have to be MVP to pull off #28. I need to be able to move the ghosts and marines to a corner, stim the marines, hold fire with the ghosts and then snipe three banelings in about a second.

No need to do that. Simplest way: don’t move anything, stim the marines, select the ghosts and R click any baneling you see – don’t hold fire, don’t use shift; if you don’t miss any baneling – which is not that hard – you’ll succeed at first try.
When using ghosts to snipe, hold down R rather than pressing it multiple times.
This avoids the pain of pressing R then clicking a baneling then clicking R then pressing a baneling then clicking R then pressi... oh what it selected the baneling? Oh... I didn't press R that time did I? Now I'm dead.
Hold down R and you only need to click the banelings, making the chance of a misclick much lower.
On round 25 (Micro Insanity) I did it by feedbacking the PDDs and then morphing to archon instantly, sending the phoenixes in and lifting the tanks, sending the stalkers in and focus firing marauders while pulling back injured ones, then relifting the tanks, and killing them off with the stalkers and archons. All stalkers + the archon survived, but the phoenixes died shortly after relifting. The method used in the OP is safer but takes longer.
