If one can use this to help them become mechanically better at the game, I say go for it. | ||

I have a steelseries sensei, and I use steelseries 3rd party program to set my DPI at 800. This clearly gives me an unfair advantage over my opponent who has a mouse set at the standard 1600 DPI that cannot be adjusted. Blizzard should just ban me now. I'm such a dirty cheater. I firmly believe that a 3rd party program is not considered cheating unless it alters the game itself. If you really choose to believe what you said above, you have to be consistent. So that means you have to think that changing your DPI is cheating. Also, if someone buys a really nice set of headphones, isn't the software that comes with it cheating if it allows you to hear the game clearer? So players will be able to react quicker to subtle sounds. Come on, be real. | ||

This is like putting a stop watch right in the middle of your screen where you literally can't NOT see it. You might think it's to help newer players but this is cheating. It's a software that makes the game easier. | ||

I don't really care if people use this or if people have a friend telling them to inject, but make no mistake, it is cheating. You can't get banned for it, if you think it'll help you go right ahead, if you have the smallest hope of ever playing live anywhere then don't use this. Big deal... People should want opponents with advantages like this, it makes them better. Sure there are limits but this is harmless. | ||

However, this sort of thing can be easily made with any sort of timer. In my opinion, this doesn't promote cheating or any of the sorts since it doesn't automatically do it for you. Not to mention, if the zerg player is paying attention, and can see when the inject larva popped from the notification. That is pretty much the same concept as this. If you call these timers cheating and what not, in bw; I see people stream with in game clock and apm chart on. Is that really considered cheating? It's a "third" party program right? | ||

Are you seriously telling me "learn to macro" after you claim the hardest part about zerg is simply injecting? Laugh out fucking loud. Man, drg is the best with injects right? Since hes like the best zerg? Oh wait! I saw him with almost 75 energy on all his queens yesterday when he was streaming. That must mean hes a horrible zerg and shoudl have been losing all his matches right? If you're going to insult me, at least make it long, your short posts are just useless banter. | ||

High tier players won't use this because its not worth the APM or time to set the clock; and they constantly have inject awareness anyways (so clock is pretty much useless). This is just a cool trick for new players to help them learn how to macro properly. | ||

You have to manually set the clock timer every time you inject. This program does not automatically inject for you either--you still have to use the APM and multitasking in order to inject.

This is just a cool trick for new players to help them learn how to macro properly. IMO, it's better to learn by failing. Fail to inject larva will leave u without larva and might lose you the game. This will make a player remeber to inject larva. A clock is just a cheap way of "remembering". | ||

A clock is just a cheap way of "remembering". People learn differently. I personally would never use it but other people might. And losing a game isn't going to help you remember to inject every 32 seconds. It might reinforce injecting is important--but that doesn't help new players with small multitasking abilities able to remember to inject. On June 26 2012 03:21 InfCereal wrote: You don't understand.
