Well. This is how out of touch I am. After watching MC in the last GSL final though I certainly know that he's not going to lose to TheWind.
Well, you can work on mechanics, which help your apm.
I see bronzies not know what a hotkey is and it makes baby raynor cry.
or queueing actions
or mineral walking past an enemy's wall
etc. etc.
Witty signature comment goes here...

Unfortunately any chance I get to use blink stalkers I also lose the game.
Does everyone hotkey upgrade stuctures? I don't yet and I don't even know the hotkeys for the upgrades.
Man when I got that that was awesome.
God do I suck.

Which I guess is better than not recognizing my own mistakes, but still. This summer I have 10 weeks of completely free time, which I am going to fill with running, drumming, and starcraft.
Oh god I can't stop myself from conjuring up some hidious one-man-band contraption that has you drumming while running while playing starcraft, a kazoo dangling inches in front of your mouth, desperately attempting to control your mouse as the outfit flops to and fro.
I am going to try as hard as I can to make this happen
I haven't heard of this before. Have you just done custom keybindings for everything to set this up or is it one of the pre-made profiles?

and the letters are mapped positionally. I really, really, really like grid, mostly because it centers where my hand can sit on the keyboard.

Lots of guides and pros recommend throwing your forges on 0 or something but I've never bothered. If you can manage producing probes and pylons, I'm sure you can manage clicking your forge every 2 minutes. Blink Stalkers are going to be unstoppable as people get better at multitasking. Scariest thing in the world.
I just fought a guy who went 1 base +1 DT Chargelot, don't try it. However, what if he had gone DTs into 2 base +weapons charge lots with Archon support? The Archons have 1 range and can shoot over zealots right? Seems like it'd be hard to scout and very scary.
I've heard Day[9] and other pros mention in passing that grid is bad but does anyone know why? It seems like having everything focused would make you more efficient and less likely to make typos.

Ponder that for a moment.

The problem with grid that everyone sees is that all your on use are generally in the bottom right of the grid, zxc which are kind of shit to press. Also attack stop and hold get shuffled around to less ergonomic positions.

edit: HA, nevermind TOS violation and channel closed by justin.tv.
I feel like someone who got to see the moon landing live.
edit2: I only saw it from Destiny mentioning it, don't judge me.
Oh goodness, that made me facepalm so much.
I started using grid but after losing games by building 9 overlords instead of corruptors (pinky on x instead of c) and blowing up a few million banelings, I just switched to the standard.
I can see why a random user would like grid instead of learning all the different keys, but a few months into the game you should have learned them anyway. And the standard setup is much better than BW.
i dont know bischu and maven but that will be a talented house
btw i think nasl should have made hd free on day 1 with the vods free too, not sure why they didnt :[
Regardless ill buy if its stable
I didn't miss it!
I too was innocently watching Destiny beat some mans.
Got to see the channel closing AND the boobs!
SC2 really is the best!
Post a summary please.

I assume he dropped blue flames into mineral lines non-stop?
