Let's talk about wall walking techniques

[Burn]

I've made my escape (Q) before using customkeys, but then I found that I wall walked at the same speed anyway, so I changed it back.

Fn+1234567890 change the Profile. I can have Profile 2 be the wall walking one and Profile 1 be the standard WC3 profile. Once I'm done wall walking, I can switch back

Dude, you like totally have an unfair advantage over me, my keyboard can't do that.
Get bunned pls.

Haha, ikr. I bought these things for a reason.

Since with the new setup I don't have to move my left hand at all, it allows me to achieve a much higher speed due to faster wall cancels.

[Burn]

You do you, but this is just my personal experience to just say that customkeys are not needed for wall walking and you can achieve the same wall walk speed even without customkeys. I'll show this in a video of me playing in zero delay:

Basically, it takes the game engine a small delay for it to register the build action, and a bit more for you to drag select the wall. During this time, it is plenty of time for you to move your hand towards the escape button. This is speaking as an ex-customkeys user, I'm not judging a book by its cover.

Yes, as I've mentioned before, my biggest problem achieving higher speeds with the new layout is selecting the wall. I didn't notice any delay on build action in single player.

Idk, I'll practice it more and see where I get to.

At 0:16 of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKLbWvMzw90 I have zero delay. It has a near-instant build from blue to actually invulnerable, but it's enough to shift fingers. Add that with drag click time and bot delay, it's plenty.

Offtopic:
At 5:00 to ~5:20 in that video, you wanted to ctrl+V something to the viewers so you wanted to use the Observers chat in-game. At first however, you opened to All chat. Then, you opened the Observers chat. Is there a hotkey to send to observers? Or did you cut the video and just switch to Obs chat from F12?

Shift+Enter is All chat.
Ctrl+Enter is Allies chat.

What's Obs chat?

[Burn]

I have it always on observers chat at the start of the game, and use control + enter for allies, shift + enter for titan.

Basically mainly for message macros, that's why you'll rarely see me type -cam 180 lock in-game, but you'll see it in DRM chat logs.

Eh, sorry for double post, but I wanted to bump and say that here's another instance where flag wall walking helped me survive, since flag wall walking means you walk more than you are inside a building, it was good for that terrain because if I had spam wall walked I would've walked into the treeline and flag wall walking allowed me to precisely place my dens and provided sufficient move speed across the map in order to not be caught up.

Wall walking is good because it makes you invulnerable when you are building the wall

[Nigth2]

I thought one used alt+w for wallwalking...

I personally don't use alt+w for wall walking, I just build a building normally to make myself invulnerable, it's really hard though
