I'm a masters (NA) zerg and a GM on Sea and I only found out last week that you could right click changelings to kill them instead of a-clicking, saves a lot of hassle when people patrol their changelings through my mineral line T_T

embarassingly I also found out that an extractor only costs 25 minerals after thinking they costed 35 minerals for ages =.=
I'm bad, really bad but I'll blame it on my internet.

Yesterday I learned that you can start warping in with a warp prism before it shows the power field.

Thank you HerO.

That you can simply hold R and click away to snipe all you want! Same for EMPs, just hold down E, click them, and they will all go off if you have the energy.

Mind = blown :D
I figured that one out really soon. It's super important too so I don't fire my colossus lasers at my own poor zealots.

I learned the "backspace"-method as Zerg 2 months agoish (HOTS release).

Was even in the WOL beta, this has improved my macro soooooo much. And have been playing on and off since..

wow wtf are you serious

this is going to be so amazingly helpful ;_;


wait i dont get this.


If you have like roaches/hydras/zerglings in one group and u want to just select all lings you hold down "ctrl" + "click" the ling icon and it'll automatically select all lings in that group by themselves.

ALSO lets say you have roaches/hydras/zerglings in your group and you want just the hydras and roaches selected in the group then you do "shift" + "ctrl" + "click" zergling icon and it'll get rid of all zerglings from your current control group. (You have to manually reset your group afterwards if you want it to stay that way i.e. "ctrl" + "#" once the units are in or out of the group)

Yeah this is what I meant. I knew about the first part but never thought it worked the other way around to delect all units of a type from your control.

Very annoying when you have SCVs in with your army after pulling SCVs to hold an allin or something and you're trying to quickly pick out the SCVs.

This is something i never knew how to do, i would see streamers do it but i would always wonder how to do it. Now i know! Thanks~


Yep thats me, I'd hold shift and find the tabs in my control group spamming uncontrollably... and didnt know how it get the units out.. :\ needed ctrl aswell... sigh!

I actually just hit CTRL + Click on selected unit. To get em all. Like said before, you have all army. CTRL + Click Ling/marine/whatever, you get the whole group of that unit selected.

Yeah but that only works if you have only one type of unit. If you have marauders/marines/medivacs/ghosts or roach/ling/bane or w/e it's easier to ctrl shift deselect one unit (workers) than to ctrl select multiple unit types.

I just realized that with the new HOTS engine, Zerglings actually GLIDE while running!

Saw this in a LAGTV cast, actually, here at the 5:00 minute mark:



thought a few people might enjoy it
