So... Guys, you k now this problem with Feedback, that targeting thing? Time to use the wheel and just go crazy around the screen huh?! Instant Everything feedback!
Zerg lategame is imbalanced as shit. Also: "Protoss is really strong recently. Perhaps, it's time for there to be some changes for Terran." -MMA. Even MMA asks for buffs. Srsly Blizzard. Srsly.
Calling it now, Blizzard gonna do something to stop this like the viking flower -___-
Except they can't do anything to stop 3rd party softwares from rebinding keys....
The only way they can stop this is probably to prevent smart casting, but that's unlikely going to be the case.
There has to be a position about this in tournaments though. It's going to be abusive and broken as fuck. Not sure how they're going to stop this on ladder/online tourneys though.

Well, Feedback is tricky with this. If your Feedback doesn't kill it, you will continue to cast it, doing nothing but wasting energy on that target. Same with EMP, Fungal Growth, etc. It's really only good for a few things, and those are 1) infested terrans, 2) snipe, 3) warping in protoss units, 4, queueing attacks on SCVs building things (queued attacks keeps the SCV under attack).

Is there any way that you can set it so it's only active in game, it's quite annoying to scroll up and down through chat windows with this thing on. I guess you could only have it on in game though although that's somewhat of a hassle as well.

They could put a cap on key spamming I guess.

But how, a certain timer? It has to be over the speed of pros because else you limit them, but if its over pro speed, it's still usefull. Very interesting thingy!

Yea this is pretty broken, I'm not sure how blizzard will address this though. I went pure infestors and just spammed marines everywhere, I won pretty handily.
Regarding Blizzard being able to stop this (if they chose to) or not, I think they would be able to easily. After all, from what I've heard, all the big name FPS games like CoD have disabled the ability to bind "fire" to "scroll up / scroll down" (to stop people from abusing it by using semi-automatic rifles like machine guns of doom.

Well, there is a 1 second internal cooldown on Queen's Transfuse ability, I could see Blizzard applying that same mechanism to snipe and infested terran, however that would be a significant nerf, especially for infested terran.

This has an outside program bind mwheel up/down to left click.
They could pretty easily add a fractional cooldown on abilities, but its still cool.
