all aliens butthurt hahahaha

i think i cant really do it in the heat of battle considering shift key is always far away from number keys, perhaps i should just use my macro keyboard to change the shift key to other key to reduce the distance if i am serious about this, thinking that pro players usually have everything hotkeyed..


terrans that keep on mule-ing and do not bother to use scan are terrifying ones, usually when they go for marines marauder which only minerals based army, i think this is the biggest problem for me in all the matchups

lol i will be really sad or rather upset if those koreans pro really hotkeyed their keyboards

in BW, its not allowed and those pros were real jizz

marines and mutalisk this 2 most used units' hotkey is M for god sake....

probe is P....

overlord is O...

sc2 is like........x100 easier adi in terms of keyboard placement. although i dont understand why not F2f3f4....why f5f6f7

as i expect, u can be saddened quite easily, well, the legality of using a macro keyboard with bound key is legal in gsl and most tournaments, but what are u describing is, it is morally wrong if not illegal since i have pointed out the fact, if u think moral worths making u sad, consider, why rule makers in gsl allow macro key to be used, do they view moral as important as u do?

terran
1 Main force
2 Secondary force / support
3 barrack
4 factory
5 starport
6 all cc
7 all cc
8 all cc
9 ebay armoury

its totally legal in sc2

but not more than 1 key input in a single press, and i doubt, even if that is allowed, i cant find a real way of making use of it

well i think it will help for terran?

press macro A = press 1, press S, press 6, press A, press 7, press S, press 8, press D?

to make scv marine tanks and etc??? but its getting too lame if ppl are doing this -.-

well, i know a couple of ppl put macro key for 'gl hf' and 'gg wp' which is more than 1 key input in a single press

and im thinking of 'shift + 1' for macro will help too for those who wants.

Because accidental Alt + F4 when you are winning = whining.

My terran hotkey

1. Marine Marauder Medevac
2. Tanks
3. Flying units
4. factory
5. cc
6. barracks
7. starport

Use what your comfortable with.. I still use how the same way I hotkey in broodwar

i personally wont group medivacs with mm, as they stop to heal when ur step micro'ing as opposed to separated group set to auto follow/atk move lol

that said, i tend to do that these days already if im doing heavy tank pushes. as imlazy to micro my MMM, just have them chillax around the tank and let tanks do the job rofl.

if terran imba most terran will have 80++ win ratio... do u see that???
if terran imba.. terran will win 90% of tournaments... is that happening???

terran is not overall imba, but in a certain level, in high level tournament level, every race is kinda balance, but in the mid level play, terran would be a better race to choose, especially against protoss, this is what i experienced, terrans will just go MMM even though u scouted he has gone for this tech path because this is 'the build', the only alteration is mix in ghosts and/or vikings, which this transition is not so hard to do at all

in other terms~ terran OP

My personal all time favorite :S

123 = units
4 warp gate
5 which ever tech i go first
6 all nexus
7 2nd tech building

man i doubt u guys need hotkey for upgrades.....gsl players dont even do that

what i meant for tech building is robo/stargate -.-

But i've seen a player set hotkey for his forges, its really preference afterall.

normally ppl will have 3 hotkey spaces for army but in early-mid you will need only 1-2 so i always hotkey the tech im researching at the 3rd slot and constantly scroll it to hit timing attacks.

(most particularly is of course the STIM timing attack, preignitor hellion and weapon/armor)

i can see the point of doing that but its really not that important for us as our timing window tolerence is not as small as progamers.
