Hold ground is faster than attack click. Save yourself a click and hold your finger over h instead of a.

@Adovid If you can a-click then right click fast enough, then there is no reason to use hold position or stop instead. ^^ I agree that some might find it easier, however I find it more intuitive to a-click. It might be possible to H,click,H,click faster than using a-click, right click, however this doesn't help you once you can stutter step as fast as marines attack with stim, past which point going faster would lead to the marines not firing.

Great video. I'm a mid level masters player and even I found it interesting. You have a good way of explaining it to new players while still microing in a somewhat advanced way. My only suggestion for future videos is that you should try not to smack your lips as much as normal. If you watch your video you'll notice that you do it alot, and it's distracting! Other than that, great vid. I look forward to the more advanced ones.

@funkomoto Haha! Thank-you for the feedback. I will definitely bear that in mind. ^^

Great video man, I hope you don't mind but I linked it to reddit. It's awesome to see someone helping new players. That's what's going to make e-sports accessible and that's what what will make it huge.

@iStarKast hey.. how do you draw the lines at around 18:00? nice vid btw

[TheHaanswin]

at 23:30 i dont think you need all the force fields entirely around the army, you would only need the ones in the back of the army since you have zealots acting like a wall at the choke point. so none can go forward or back away fromthe choke point. that would save nrg for more force shields later on.

@iStarKast Honestly, I find it relaxing baha

@TheSmokey2312 If you message me I can explain Micro if you want me to.

I don't play StarCraft, but I do play other RTS games, and generally every RTS game shares basic microing capabilities, although depending on which RTS it is changes it.
