Hotkey cycling

If you don't know what hotkeys are or how they work, look at my other post on them.

Hotkey cycling is a technique I learned a long time ago which allowed me to more effeciently maintain my unit production, and it gave me a final apm boost to get me from 150 to 200+. It's a simple idea, with big results.

A long time ago I was watching an fpvod by a very well known American starcraft player named Nony (pronounced like noonie). In the video I noticed that he was constantly cycling through through his hotkeys (not necessarily in any specific order mind you), even when it wasn't necessary. While normally this wouldn't be too big of a developement, later on he was using it to keep tabs and manage his entire base. By constantly selecting different structures, he never skipped a beat when it came to keeping the units pumping (although I can't claim that this strategy alone was thanks to that,). Sure enough, when I loaded up a bisu fpvod, he played similarly. I suggest you watch a few fpvods from both if you are a protoss.

By implementing this little strategy into your play, you are guaranteed to speed up your apm, and eventually it will become much more effective.
