.....Please explain what you mean by using hotkeys, your post is not nonsensical and does not contribute to the thread. How do you hotkey them? How do you use the hotkeys when the harass begins? What technique do you use with the hotkeys that makes it more efficient than the F1 method? Please put at least some effort into your posts.


On another, more helpful note:
I believe this technique will really help against Banelings in every MU, in particular zvz. All zerg players have had the horror of watching slow banelings stroll into their mineral line, and since baneling splash works as a circular AoE, this technique could save a lot of workers from being killed. SInce you should already have all drones hotkeyed so that they are easy to grab IF lings get in the mineral line and you need to fight them, this combined with the F1 spread will make drone fighting or spreading and then returning them to mining that much more efficient/quicker.

I would imagine this becomes a bit too messy and time/action consuming to perform with 30-40 Probes though, considering you still have to control your units to deal with harassment as well.
