and honestly you save so many actions not having to constantly find your reinforcement train or alter your rally point that you can do more while using it, imo unless you are a pro its useful to use it a lot. | ||

When I switched to SC2 I remembered being frustrated that such a button didn't exist, but eventually I got used to it. Ironic thing is when it was finally introduced it's hotkey was conflicting so I just rebound it to the edge of my keyboard and have never since touched it. May start giving it a go. | ||

Loooooool In all seriousness though I use it occasionally, as snute said earlier, to find units. Sometimes I lose track of medivacs or tech units like ghosts, which can get spread out around the battlefield, so hitting the select all army then ctrl clicking them to find them is super helpful. The one thing I never use it for is as a means to control combat units. | ||

It's great for finding high-tech units, especially 'lost' vipers and overseers - Another great use is for basetrade-situations where you need a complete overview of your army. Also it's good to use with ctrl-click to double-check that you have all your mutas in the control group, for example. That is the only reason I use it, sometimes i miss the egg hotkeying. I don't have it bound so I can't rely on it more than that though. | ||

That's part of the problem for me, in that it's simply too convenient to use. It's just another hotkey on the row now. | ||

Imagine the smoothness of being able to unflag that zergling at the watch tower and the overseers above your bases, while happily using that button for some serious management." I totally agree with this. Also being able to add units or types to it - for example, being able to manually add queens, , and in the options menu, being able to make it so queens are automatically added to it. | ||

I hate using all army on one control, I can't micro like that at all. @nerchio: U using 3 control groups and winning is the biggest joke in all of esports. I feel you have misread the main post. as I said I use it as an alternative to egg-hotkeying, selecting all zerg/banelings/overseers and putting them on 1, selecting all mutalisks, putting them on 2 etc. I don't use that button as a control group by itself at all, putting all my units in 1 control group. Either you have not read the OP, or you misread it ^_=. | ||
