Is there anything I could have done better this game besides dodging storms?? Seems like storms are the sole reason why he done... I outplayed him in every other way. Most of the time I emp'd correctly, but just a few storms were game changing. No sense.
/e I am now aware that I overmade vikings, allowing him to get back into the game. FML.
UGH I had so many great chances to attack or atleast poke... and I had no clue... I just stayed back the entire time so I could "get more ahead" and it fucked me over in the end -_- inexperience killed me. What a good game though.
Note to self: if you have 17 vikings and he has 0 colossi in sight, LAND THEM.


Without watching, sounds like scouting problems. MOAR SCANS. MOAR SINGLE MARINES SUICIDED INTO RANDOM PLACES.

spamming at start doesn't help too much tbh i do it most of the time, to get rid of my nerves but that's it for that. I guess I'll just have to play a shitton more, no tricks for it <_<

spamming at the beginning does help warm up your hands and wrist, but it's not going to map you faster all of a sudden. if you've ever been to a lan event, you'll see people in the open bracket spamming for the whole beginning of the game, and then slow down to like 10 APM to try and split rally a drone or something. try increasing your map scroll speed and your overall mouse speed, i've found it helps me a lot in sc2.

you could also try playing osu! to help with mouse accuracy and snapping. other than that, just benchmark builds over and over

well i play on 60% mouse sensitivy and have set my mouse to 3000 dpi, the fault is mainly in me, not in the options i play with imo. I'm mainly looking for exercises or something that can bump up my apm.

make a custom game with no opponent and just benchmark some builds so you can at least get the macro half all kinked out, once you know your standard play you can deviate with ease and be familiar enough with timings to allocate APM accordingly.

what race are you?
