Obviously a man of perfection such as myself does not need mechanics advice. But for other people, people who don't have the mechanics skill of Jaedong and Flash combined, I would like to thank you for making this podcast.

Seriously, though, I do have a question: I mostly play Starcraft on a laptop. Does that: A. not matter B. change the way I need to think about hotkeys or C. need to stop?

nice episode day[9].
there are some exceptions, imo, where you can use the "mouse click" on an icon to your advantage even if you can hotkey it, but its never good to focus on small exceptions when teaching the general idea to people.


i strongly strongly disagree

do you have an example of such an exception?


Example: TvP, I have my factoryhotkeys 4 5 6 7 8 9.
When macroing tanks and vultures during a push without leaving the screen, its easier and faster to press 4t5t6789.
4 tank
5 tank
6 7 8 9 you click on the vultureicon with your mouse.

Visual example. Check 9:05 in this video.
In this situation, using 4t5t6v7v8v9v would not only be harder but also not give me any advantage since i will not be able to micro with my mouse at the same time anyway and also i dont see how the macroround would be faster using the full hotkey macro.
Edit: In this situation I actually only have 5 factories and 1 addon, but you get the point.



+ Show Spoiler +

Practice it for half an hour and you'll find that it will take you about 1 second to macro the 6 factories and yet not lose focus of the action or important time.

There are more exceptions, however they are quite few, but its also quite obvious that they exist because of the keyboard layout.

This game was played at C- in the earlier stages of the ladder. However lets not get into if the opponent were good or if I played good but rather the use of this exception.




That literally NEVER occurred to me. I stand totally corrected. In fact, its kind of interesting that the macro you just described is the inverse of the way I macro w/ terran: You use the keyboard to select the buildings and the mouse to begin the unit. I use the mouse to select the building and the keyboard to make the unit. They necessarily take the same amount of time.

neato!

Hey there, Day[9] ! I just recently finished listening your latest awesome Audio Podcast(Mechanics) ^_^

I was curious where the solid bone (pivot point) is (as mentioned in Basics of Mechanics Part 1 on 1:19- 1:25).
If it's okay, could you illustrate that where is it exactly ?
Your reply would be much appreciated. Thanks

-Cheers

Reading technical terms about hand structure is a pain in the ass, but I believe that the 'pivot bone' we've been discussing here is the lunate.
This is my *house*. Do you want to know a *secret*? Do not *think* it too *not campers*. You are so many *lonely* *juicy* *bubbles*. It is so sad. Now that you are *campers* you will have more *parties* and no more *sad* *lonely* *bubbles*.
