say like every queen you have is on 4. hatches are on 5-0. it would be supercool if you were able to just go like that. 4 (queens), V (larva inject), 5 (hatch 1) 4 (queens), V (larva inject), 6 (hatch 2) 4 (queens), V (larva inject), 7 (hatch 3) that would be like faster you know what i mean? you could stay with vision at battles or other things.... | ||

So what happends when your 5 cycles are done? If you can't remember to inject every 45 sec or whatever how will you remember to start this off? If you can't micro while you macro - then how can you pull this trick off while fighting somewhere else at the map? It seems the "Backspace" (damn near instant) would be a better habbit to form. (like the post above said... you can master that keystroke in a minute and spam it every time you feel your getting close). Maybe my reading comprehension is off and I'm missing something. (possible... its early and I'm at work paying only half attention) | ||

Nice use of the game mechanics but I don't think it's viable at all. Perhaps in a late game stage where you have 3-4 bases and 3-4 queens and set this up... but I have my doubts. | ||

You'd end up just injected how you usually do afterwards since it would be difficult to compensate when you don't always know how long you'll have to have her defending. Cool find regardless though. Then you pull the Queen back and then reissue the commands - no big deal. How often do you defend with your Queen after the first 5 minutes? I don't use it often in the average game... | ||

So what happends when your 5 cycles are done? If you can't remember to inject every 45 sec or whatever how will you remember to start this off? You are much more likely to remember issuing one command every 200 secs, than you are to issue one command every 40 secs. Also you can reissue this command after any number of injects, you don't have to wait out the full 5 cycle. People will still know how to manually eject larva. | ||

So theoretically u could keep the queen doing perfect injections after the first however minutes after u have done defending with the queen. excellent find  | ||

If you throw down an additional Hatch in your base, can you shift queue Spawn Larva back and forth between the two hatches and have the Queen just pace between them, casting as soon as she has energy? Obviously, if you have 2 hatches, you'd want 2 queens, but it still seems possible to just shift queue them both. | ||
