5) Hold shift and spam backspace+click
6) Turn off "Follow Current Selection" (press hotkey)

This method means that you will no longer cycle through your hatcheries without queens at them.


Thank you, I have added this to my first post, with minor tweaking (wasnt correct)

awesome video. Kinda makes me dizzy the way it smoothly pans toward the queen, but this now looks like the ultimate way to inject, its got the control of the 5/6/7/8/ in terms of no wandering queens but the speed and hotkey preservation of the backspace method.

heh well that opens up 5-6 hotkeys for me to be utilising every game.

Thanks Bitter and big thanks to chef for working this one out.

People are just trying to find a more efficient way to inject as a zerg

Compared to the other races it takes alot more time
as terran lets say you have 2 OCs on 5 all you do is 5 shift-e click click
same for toss

but for zerg you have to go to each individual queen and click each individual hatchery. So yes its is difficult mid battle.
PM me for coaching. I'm a mid masters zerg player.

Just watched the video. Thanks Chef and Mr.Bitter. Now if only they made Queens generate 25 energy during an inject instead of 24. Or am I just imagining things?

Not sure why you think what he wrote there isn't correct. When you press the "Follow Current Selection" hotkey really doesn't matter, although it makes more sense to do it after you select the queen but before you press larva inject and hold down the shift key.

Interesting method though, but I think it was faster for me to just pay attention to hatcheries that don't have a queen next to them. Or to make sure that all my hatcheries have queens.
Even during difficult times, when I sat down to play the game, there were times where it felt like god has descended down and played [for me].

Why shouldn't they? The tools are provided by Blizzard, in the game's options, specifically for making tasks in the game easier to execute by creating more comfortable hotkey setups.

The onus is on you to share with us why players shouldn't be experimenting with the provided options to solve problems that occur while playing the game.
Teamwork is awesome... As long as your team is doing all the work!

I see, i guess it dosent matter when its selected. Apologies,
I still use base camera, to cycle in between hatcheries, I just use this new method when i inject them.

6) Turn off "Follow Current Selection" (press hotkey)


Actually, unless I'm missing something, the camera follow automatically disengages if you pan away, so you don't need to turn it off.

You could bind W to follow current selection and shift+W to base camera, since you're holding shift anyway when cycling. This will save you from having to use the tilde key. So this will be 4, v, w, hold shift, w, click, w, click, etc.

I personally use E for inject and shift+E to cycle hatches, so I've bound shift+W to "center on current selection". It does the same thing but you hold it instead of it being a toggle. So for me I'm going to be holding shift+w and tapping e+click to inject. So 4, e, hold shift+w, e, click, e, click, etc. I don't want to use up W because I do like it when I'm playing protoss.

This is a cool trick and would definitely be useful for players that use the shift+base camera inject method. Thanks

Hahaha that is so true. Broodwar players will probably look at this thread and be like, "wait, SC2 is so easy as it is, do people really have problems with that?" But I think every little applicable trick can help if it can reduce the probability of catastrophic failure! Great thread ChefSC, and great video MrBitter!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ There are three kinds of people in the world: those who can count and those who can't.
