Ever get tired of telling your units to attack an SCV constructing a building and then the SCV moves and your unit forgets?
Introducing: The multiple shift-click attack super-combo move!
How it is done: It's simple! Just take your unit and shift click the SCV repeatedly, so that when the SCV moves while constructing the structure, your melee unit will follow it instead of stopping!
Why it is important: For bunker rush situations, you don't have to stop and tell your Drone/Zergling to keep attacking the SCV when he moves around the bunker, just spam a few shift-clicks on him and they'll keep chasing it!
You'll know if you did it right if the game draws a red attack line from your unit to the SCV, so you can leave your unit alone and go back to your micro and macro!

Great, another way to annoy the hell out of all terran players. Hands off my bunker rushing SCV!
edit: lol I just tried this in a TvT and felt spectacular thx for the trick
|
Why did I not think of this
|
Derp, I only right click once Thanks for this tip!
|
This is amazing. Never thought about it. Will try it as soon as I get home (@ Uni atm <_<)
|
Neat trick, will most certainly be using this from now on!
|
Learn something new every day...
|
Well this sucks!
Guess I'll be real sure to kill the attacking probe in the future
|
I thought everybody did this already.
Well, in this case, thanks for making our wall-building a living hell!

Yep been doing this for months. It's awesome
|
Wow thanks, I just manually microed my probe to keep chasing but this makes alot of sense!
|
Oh my god this is awesome!

Herp di derp, seems so fucking obvious. Reminds me of a quote : " Magic Thighs - 'How did we not think of that Groomfondle?' Groomfondle - 'I think our brains are too well trained Magic Thighs'" -Douglas Adams, Life, The Universe, and Everything
Thanks!

Yeah thought everyone knew about that. The worker really shouldn't lose its target anyways though.

If you attack move near the building to catch the SCV, or if you attack command the SCV, and it moves through the building the attack command gets broken by the AI. That's why this technique is useful because you don't have to constantly watch your harass probe while you drop your gate/forge/whatever.

The SCV union hates you. You are now right below mutalisks and blueflame hellions as most hated.
|
Haha this is awesome! My Terran buddies are gonna hate me even more now :D Thanx Omni17

I love these random tips topics that spring up on TL. I usually get more use out of these posts than most strategy posts.
