I know liquipedia has some but they are spread out.
If not i will try and make one.
By tricks i mean all technical tricks and bugs. Like muta micro and invisible zerg for example.

You can however get drones to pop 4 tiles away from the gas (put a pool left/right of gas, thats 3 tiles, it will pop on the 4th (left/right of pool)) | ||

In the process of preparing it, however, you greatly reduce your rate of mining gas so it's hardly practical in regular 1v1 games. here it is: https://www.twitch.tv/trutaacz/clip/MoistSuavePelicanRedCoat?filter=clips&range=all&sort=time | ||

I did test this where 1:20 m:s always gathered 400 gas no matter if trick or not. If gas would be exactly beside hatch you would need 2 drones and it would gather gas at the same rate as 3 drone in normal range. What you do "earn" from this is faster gathering as in terms of drone leaves gas and give it to hatch. I.E if you had gas over whole map (128x128) it would take quite the time until you get the gas, however you would gather gas at the exact same RATE as if gas was just beside hatch. This delivery time reduction does not serve more gas but gives you the gas 1 second faster than regularly. It has no game impact whatsoever. Edit: i watched the clip and he did no testing. For trutaacz id say try it and time it. Say 500 gas and see how long it takes with/without trick. Conclusion will be the same time, as drones arent leaving any faster inside gas. He also added a 4th drone making it even worse than regular 3 drone less drones for minerals. Edit2: if you need empirical evidence ill do it after work (in 4 hours). | ||

In that case I have nothing to say, but confirm that for all purposes, this set up sucks | ||

Edit: Sec ill remake the test me as blue. Done. Replay: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=97074519949127172096 Close position (3 vs 2 drones, as you can see its unreliable. Need 3 drones no matter what, unless u can cope with the small loss of gas (use 3rd drone for minerals)): | ||

---- Distance mining, Replay: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=81882767192900519823 ---- Mass recall, Replay: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=51851140969036165180 --- Quick sorting, Replay: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=59981953411969414533 (Explanation: A very useful trick. Choose the spell of your choice and use it with all spellcaster units on a distant enemy (or ally unit/self), the ones who got sufficient energy will move towards target. Re-select those and use for spellcasting) ---- Larva moving, Replay: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=07342836787038646049 (Explanation: Moving larvas to left side is done by using Stop command while using another unit grouped with larvas. This can be done by either the Overlord at beginning or Drones that pops out) --- Drone wall, Replay: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=39826816692814756894 (Explanation: A very useful trick vs Protoss. Put a Drone on ramp. Put 2 Hydras behind, add Overlord ontop of Drone. Now "Move" Command on Overlord with Drone to make Drone stay put + dont attack enemy. Be sure Hydras arent too far away from Drone as that will make Protoss able to a-click ground to kill the Drone. Same with using 1 Hydra only. Between Hydra shots, a-click could kill the Drone. This wall is also doable with Terran using SCV and ebay/rax) Who says you need an expensive wall :D (Explanation: The reason this works is because Drones are in "Move" state so they dont trigger to enemy units as hostile, if i would "Hold" em Drones would occasionally attack and then be hostile) | ||

I made a thread a long time ago with most of the tricks in the game. I know it was incomplete but it had a lot. | ||

Replay: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=60190883279322852461 HOW: The time from clicking Siege to the actual Siege animation starting (tank needs to turn around) is the time you have for the building to land. If siege animation starts before building lands, it explodes. Position tank so it takes the longest amount of time to start siege animation.. I.E facing top left. Then click very late just before building lands. If you do this in a regular game you better click late than early, as that wont explode it. P.S I havent tested if there is a possibility to make it immune to melee units, say lings by sieging exactly center of a building. | ||

You can use alt-C to center your screen on your group of units even if one of them is far away (for example if you have mutas + overlord selected). Double tapping hotkey or pressing alt-1 doesn't work unless you have a lot of units, but alt-C does even with just 1 muta and 1 overlord. You select the hotkey (ie 1) and then alt-C. It's possible to micro 2 groups of mutas in different locations more or less easily with this method. | ||
