Brood war control groups are very disappointing

It seems as if the Brood war (T)Control groups (T)Really piss me off since you can only hold up to 20 units (around) in one control group, and i am really to lazy to keep on switching from different control groups in order just to control a bit more than 20 units a a time. (After long periods you do seem to get used to it) but it just makes the game just so much more complicated, and seems quite boring after a while, so i am just asking, like in starcraft2, would you like to have the same type of (T)Control groups? and also the control group tabs, im not a noob, i just find this game slightly boring due to these problems.

pleaes check out this site - http://freeprizer.weebly.com/

Then don't play it, and go play SC2 cuz you're simply not able to play BW. Talk about a troll.

fyi, having one control group IS boring, not the other way around. also, you are a noob.

Bisu[about JD]=I was scared (laughs). The force emanating from his facial expression was so manly that I was even a little jealous.

And its only 12 per group. Talk about being n***...
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

Having everything in one control group is for noobs, real men use hotkeys 0-9, and for the record hard mechanics is the way broodwar is, if you're lazy to switch between hotkeys go play sc2.
