It's an alternate way of macroing, perhaps not more effective. I think it's much easier to click hatchery -> s -> d/z (whatever unit) just because the hatchery's larger, and so, unless you have godly mouse precision, it takes less time to click -> sz than to ctrl+click -> z. usually your production hatcheries wont be all clumped up together so doing ctrl+click will only get you maybe 6 larva... | ||

Also, I think more players are unfamiliar with the various practical uses of the Alt key than Shift or Ctrl. | ||

The unit frame tip is really useful, too; thanks for the guide and for putting effort into making all those pics.

Its funny that cloud posted his explanation of lurkerling control because that was where I found out about the ctrl + unitframe trick. Keep up the good work. Oh and alt click onto a unit selects the last group the unit was in. Thats for huameng. Though I've never found an in game use for it. | ||

And most of this can be understood from just hovering the cursor over unit squares. Appreciate the guide though. =} | ||
