I watched a lot of replays of professional players and noticed that they micro their units so well. How does one master this tecnique? Seems so difficult every time i try it. Can someone provide some tips please... much appreciated, thx.

What kind of micro do u need tips for? Explaining the whole aspect of unit controll is kind of hard...

The place u only dream of
I think that is supposed to mean practice practice practice. Use ums maps to play other players to get better but first u need to know the basics use single player to find what works best on comps and then alter it to fit the player your playing. I think thats how it goes.

What race? What time of the game? What MU?

There are hundreds of actions to learn to be good at micro. Every unit has to be microed differently.

Since u use tanks and vultures i guess u mean TvP. Tanks cant really be microed since they will mostly be in siege mode, but when in tank mode u can dance them to save units like any other ranged units. Vultures are harder tho, since u have to sneak them passt defences and get into the enemys base to do as much damage as possible. Try to lay mines around gateways and on ramps, and then try to kill as many probes as possible. If u encounter dragoons, try to sneak vults around all sides of the goons and lay mines to surround them. Try not to use the vultures for frontal assaults, use them to hurt the enemys economy and to protect ur tanks. If u encounter units like goons, DTs and zealots, use mines in most cases.

wut is the best technique to lay mines when using a group of vultures to attack? Do i select them all and press the "mine hotkey" and then point to the location where i want the mine to be planted? or better to plant mines individually?

i usually make subgroups for group of vultures..2-3 cars each as group 7 8 and 9 (0 is comstat), but that's just me

i wouldn't suggest all vultures trying to lay mines at same spot...

If u are using them to defend ur tanks just lay some mines in front of ur tanks, but if u are trying to surround mines u have to lay them in different spots.
