I Have to use spacebar cause my mouse sucks.
It is safer that way
So depending on how my mouse is acting is whether I use Mouse select or spacebar.

WyzDM uses the "Attack" Command (the arrow that means all units spawning instantly atk)...does anyone else use it? O.o

I use it also, but the problem with that is that it also sends garrisoned units out. That's when spacebar comes into play.

tbh I only started using it when I watched wyzdm's videos, it really saves time unless you have garrisoned units. After watching wyzdm's videos I also manually selected units a lot more, but I still use spacebar and control + any number frequently.

I feel like Ctrl+# takes too long for my hand to reach in the heat of the battle, I'd rather use my mouse to drag manually and kite/atk/whatever

I use space, a click, occasionally the attack command and mostly unit hotkeys. Sometimes that messes me up when I only want some of my archers to kite but other than that I find it more reliable than clicking the units I want manually.

I use it occasionally, just memorize finger patterns.

i use spacebar to cycle units: select wounded -> press G -> press [space] -> continue attack, kiting, whatever. i also use it to regroup. and to select fresh recruits. i use it quite a lot really.

i just found out recently about [ctrl]+[number]. seems crucial for ninja or mage control, or sending archers back. in fact i found out about it by relentlessly trying to find a way to class-select troops with the keyboard, as double clicking rarely works.

spacebar for selecting units is very important in micro for me double groups of one type of unit and single clicking casters
