Eight years later i'm grateful with you again
this is incredible!
I have played war3 few times over, but never really got into hotkeys not even for building etc. . .you guessed it I'm not an RTS player:D
so after all these years i have decided to finish the game on hard. . .yes, clicking on everything is just too much hard work to stay fun.
all in all a massive thank u, you have gotten yourself a new Sub sir:)
thx
Is there any special achievement for completing the game on hard? Curious
Anyone watching to get ready for Reforged?

aye m lord
Hello from 2020. You don't know what you're even talking about...
R.I.P Reforged
Thanks for the good guide..now what I need is warcraft 4
+Rico Mandar Ikr!
and here we go, after 2 years, you will have warcraft 3 reforged, enjoy :D
@@Co-ordinator that's diablo, not Warcraft
Any guides on how to micro better? Utilizing stop, attack and move better. Thanks. I am getting back into this game after a VERY long hiatus. I was never really that good...
Thanks!
THANK YOU SO MUCH WTII
+Freddy Frog you're welcome
The statistics for this vid show a steady climb. It makes me think that WC3 is still getting new players.
Ben H i aint a new player. I just played terriblely
Yes there are new players!!
@@romariobroers94 i am one of those new players i wanna learn the before the release of the new vanilla
@@CrowBoomer yep, I am not new, I been around from a very long time. I still suck at the game can't beat the AI at the lowest difficulty possible. I think if I get some hotkeys I well play better. And also I have to make good decisions. Its just the AI sends the first batch of units then destroys like have of my units then they build up there units even more and I get annihilated on the 2nd - 3rd round of them bringing in units.
@@CloudfulGaming focus on leveling your hero fast kreep early and fast (youtube human build order)
when you meet them focus on killing their hero first
(for killing enemy hero the rifle unit with the long range upgrade is useful if you have 6 of them make them target the enemy hero.. move some foot soldiers behind enemy hero then make them attack him so when he gets hurt and wants to escape he gets blocked)
they loose moral when you kill their hero
buying some items helps.. like in your arcane volt there is this heal friendly units item.. get 2 of it before you meet your enemy
key for humans I think is magic units from arcane volt and the blacksmith upgrades
Numbers only, 1 > 0.

What a crazy stuff u gave us, i already tried your tester map and it works very well for me. i made dozen of battle between abo and knights stuff like that just to see and before i noticed i had spend 6 hours on it. A big thanks for all the efforts u have getting us happy and satisfied. i ll try to support you as soon as i can even if times are hard ^^ Big up gagzooo your the best
Fine job on this video, WTii. For someone who has played the game on and off for over a decade, it's amazing how much I don't take advantage of some hotkeys (and don't stick to one choice for my 1-0 key binds, slip on my "shift usage in general",etc. - especially because I go for such long periods without playing and have to refresh in general (all the more so due to my being ancient, probably) Thanks again - you're my fav WC3 chan - the game has almost TOO much potential for different types of play - it has been and I expect it to continue to be the most timeless RTS aside from its counterpart, Starcraft.
Thanks Simon for the kind words, Warcraft 3 is just an awesome game to play still even to this day because IMO nothing has beaten it so far RTS wise, I'm not sure if it ever will. The game definitely has tons of potential & we are just waiting on Blizz to get off their ass & at least HD the game as well as make it accessible to Bnet app.
18:00 that shift, mind blown thank you so much xD
I cant even win aginst Easy bots on Booty bay :(
Chosen lol ty
Naider could I, its normal :D
What race you play mostly in?
alvin ng Humans, its the most easiest one
I prefer orcs they can beat normal bots except undead
Okay, there is alot i already know but i'm pretty sure there are videos out there with content i don't know yet. You just got yourself another subscriber, also because i would simply love to see your SDA sometime!
I feel so pro right now and everything
@ Neil Kautzner not yet but I will be working on one soon
^^ yeah if you could make a new guide with your micro/macro and your current keybind set up that would be Extremely helpful.
2:37 dat water ele timing tho
I think you forgot to tell that by ctrl clicking a unit it targets all the similar units. Or I just didn't see it, anyway figured it out myself thanks for the great guide
You're welcome
He mentioned it
Denislav Norchev by sticking the old ones in the toaster.I know it sounds weird, but I tried it and it actually works!You won't regret it.
Excellent video! It's very informative and entertaining. All the best!
Im a starcraft player that totally missed the wc3 train. I wont be downvoting this content. Keep it up WTii
Lol I actually never noticed the highlighted letters, thx a lot wtii you helped me out a lot
:)
If you want to select one unit you dont need to leftclick the others out you also might double click the unit
Nice tutorial m8. This will guide me through my quest of boredom xDDD.
Awesome video, keep up the good work. Btw, I've been watching your stream a little bit :D
You took my advice about the video camera on the hands! I like it! thanks.
So wait you can bind Keys by Ctrl+ (any key)? I always thought it don't exist in Warcraft 3 since it isn't shown like in Starcraft 2 XD
Glad to know that works here too :)
Only numbers
I still playing this game
I have been playing since 2012, and i wondered why i was so slow at times, so i watched one of your gameplay videos and thats how i found out that hotkeys exists, honestly i dont even know how to react to me being so dumb
1 last thing... ty so much for these daily posts, i know u don't have a lot of subscribers and not a lot of people donating to u but please keep up the great work... i love ur thinking, ur reactions :) :D and tho i really love watching u play war3 u need to start playing a new more popular game for more subs.. but please if u do this don't forget about warcraftIII :) i hope machinma accepts u :) would love to see u and syndicate play somehting together LOL :D
@Trustless Noob I have a Warcraft 3 CD Key so I play the normal Battle.Net online ^^ Thx :)
+wtiiwarcraft Thanks but is it really good to practice this against bots because against real players my partner instant calls me a noob and leaves...
+ShreedZ bots will give you the time to practice and learn/perfect a build order & creep pattern. Players won't be so patient, take on the players when you are ready.
Thank You MAN
Next guide on warkeys and micro! Wouldn't that be a mess and a half lol.
is there a hotkey to group a same type of unit without using double clicking?
If you hold Left Control & click on a footman when other footmen are nearby, it will highlight them all
Good video man. I just started playing this and found that i have a an issue controlling multiple platoons of my units
Logitech MX518 best mouse ever made!
Thanks for all your videos sir. They are all a big help. Is there anyway you could make a video with the camera aimed at your keyboard while you are playing a match so I can see how you are rolling through the micro?
Maybe in a future setup, atm I don't have the proper equipment or support for it. During this video, I used my webcam and that was stuck on the end of a long ruler alongside part of my wall. Not an ideal setup~ Not to mentioned it fell off multiple times before recording~
wew videos 10 years ago !
This is brilliant! Praise the power of shift!!
About time
This is very very very very very very very very very very helpful , thank you!!
you're most welcome
In the last minutes you mentioned i can add units to a group with shift + "any key" can I also kick them out ??
The way I am used to kicking units out is by
1. selecting the group they are in
2. hold left shift + left click on the unit (or their portrait on the bottom)
3. re-assign the group to the hotkey preferred.
For example,
1. Select Group 2 (4 footmen in this group)
2. hold left shift + left click on the 1 injured footman of the group
3. re-assign the group to the hotkey 2. (Ctrl+2)
Can i ask something?
If im building a Farm i want it when its finishes to automaticly make another farm like.
FunnyWarCraftIII
press shift and the left click
+Sean Uytuico Thanks!
hold shift then b (build) then f (farm) you can do it multiple times.. like que 5 fatms ahead.. then while stil holding shift click on trees again so the worker goes back to work when he finishes building farms
updated and improved custom hotkeys are here www.reddit.com/r/WC3/comments/69p3nv/improved_custom_hotkeys_setup_by_wtvr/
omg man u just changed my life thanks a lot !!!!!!
if u have useful like that plz drop link
How could i change the hotkey of idle workers on F8 to Y?
Great guide! Thanks mate.
If you had started videos back in the day.... You'd be so popular WTii! At least we all love you, except for the scum who disliked :P
Great video thanks for the link Wtii.
Not sure i understood the question, but after shift left clicking on the unit, u have to press control and the hotkey you had before to unselect one unit
Thanks!
very good tutorial that helps those who are learning to play
Moreover GAGO want to play against you in a game or strategy already gives me all love to see your videos and I follow along via youtube also have Facebook pages? very good your video greetings from Argentina :)
you just make me finishing hard camping 2 TIME!! with this trick
Nice
How do you always have health bars of everything shown in the game,I can only see them when I hold down Alt key?
Options > Gameplay > Always Show Health Bars
thank you soo much
thank you awsome video !!!
Thanks man for this tutorial.
you're welcome
I get annoyed WC3's hotkeys, that's why if I make custom WC3 maps I often edit them to be far less all over the place. The few people who have actually played my maps seem to prefer it to, though that is too small of a player pool to make any claims, but just thought I should throw it out.
I think that even much easier way is to use qwerty hotkey.
Very useful information. I thought I could select only 12 units max per time, but when I started to watch your videos I understood that it would be a better way :p
The video is a bit long but you explain everything very well. Didn't expect to see a Warcraft III player like you still playing this game, coz its too old. Still loving it very much and I wish to had your skills some day ^^
May I ask how you play on-line? Battlenet, Gameranger or what?
I just want the QUICKCAST option with customkeys as Its only available in GRID option. Any1 have a solution?!
Noooo not at Midnight! *watches* I'm a sucker xD
Very very very very useful video for me, thank you a lot m8 . Still can't handle big fights because of the lack of exp i got but with this grouping , polymorph, clouds and stuff i'll learn one day. And just one question, which is the easiest race a new player can practice on
Tough question as all races are very unique. I started with Night Elves myself. If you just go DH & archer/hunts it's not hard. They get much harder if you try to master the tier 2/3 units
i know u said its anoying but i think it would be pretty sweet
No way to re-bind buildings etc, inn you're own preference? I play AOE2 alot, but would like to give War3 a propor chance (played it before alot, but nothing serious), just don't get how to keybind...Like say I want to have E for blacksmith building. You can do all that inn AOE2.
Thank you so much for these videos. Just got back into WC3 after a long time and these have helped a lot. I just have one question regarding micro. Basically in a medium/huge battle things can get quite chaotic and it can be really hard to find smaller units and even if you do manage to spot them it can be very hard to say, death coil a dying ghoul. Do you have any tips on how to do this efficiently. Right now I have DK on hotkey 1 and melee on 3. I've been trying to shift add the DK to the melee and heal by clicking on the dying ghoul on the HUD list but I'm usually too late and I've lost the unit. So do I just need practice (I definitely do, haha) or is there a better way to micro manage?
If you like Warcraft 3 you may want to check out my other channel ruclips.net/user/wtiiwarcraft.
As for the micro, what you said regarding adding the DK with the ghouls temporarily is what I would have suggested. Aside from visually being able to see the injured Ghoul's health bar amongst the battle & accurately click your coil onto it (quite challenging indeed) there aren't many other effective ways of achieving this aside from combining the Hero with the unit hotkey group.
Thanks for the response! Will def check out your other channel. :)
Imagine U've got a archer's army, and you want to stealth a week archer and focus fire with the rest to a unit. What would you do? if you hide and then shift click te week archer its time wasting but if you left click the archer who is hidden, then to reselect your army is a nightmare cause u can't drag-select without selecting again de week archer, so what would you do?
Sorry about my english.
Love your vids!
Is there a way to remove a unit from a group by only using hotkey ("shift + click the unit" is too slow in the heat of battle)? I know "shit+#" will add unit to existing group. But shouldn't be logical to have a similar hot key to remove unit from existing group?
Very nice :) thank you, from Brazil
I'm trying to play online, but I never found players... I try only in USA, but probally you play on Europe, right?
+Hector Vido Europe yeah
Thank you, I'll try this.
If i have a mouse with extra buttons can i hotkey it? Like 2 buttons 1 to sellect racks then 2 to train footmen
thanks wtii1
cam on wtii1 nhieu nha
May I ask how did he got 300 food?
+Andres Gosalvez Torrico I changed the settings in the map
wtiiwarcraft Oh ok didn't knew you could do that
+Andres Gosalvez Torrico ye u can~
In the Warcraft 3 World Editor: Advanced > Gameplay Constants > Food Limit (100 > XXX)
you can also do that with things like wisps building a tree, while you build another unit, and then dicontinue to build the tree. or by playing dark ranger and using her ultimate to exceed the 100 food limit.
I would love if you could make a video where you play a short game but with the camera on the keyboard. Are you using custom hotkeys now? The game is very complicated, just this video isn't enough for someone to learn to beat a normal computer. I think...I tried beating him today but I can't...He's so aggressive and I can't even make an expansion before he comes with 5-6 soldiers + hero and beats me up. Maybe I fight back, but he comes back later with an even bigger army...
BUT THIS IS A GOOD VIDEO! I DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING BAD BY SAYING THIS...
I don't use custom hotkeys, you just gota play a lot for the muscle memory to do most of the work
is there any way to save these hot keys so there is no waiting time next game setting them?
You lied; this video changed my life.
Hi Wtii, can you please do a video on how to do a hero surround? Thanks
+Roy Steven Ung Keng Soon it would quite likely be part of a micro guide but that ain't happening for a while!
i have a problem when i group a unit like i want to change the unit number from 2 and i accidentally press 1 and 2 then when i try to press 2 the first unit still the same like i want to disable group from unit 1 to 0 like i want to remove groups unit any help?
So I can't seem to get any custom hotkeys to work inside RoC's official single player campaign. No problem getting custom hotkeys to work in a custom, LAN or BNET multiplayer game. Is it that hotkeys do not work inside Bizzards campaign's? I feel like that must be highly unlikely...
Just started playing this game. I can wreck the campaign but in custom games even the computer is crushing me. Any recommended order to watch your guides?
Well I would suggest this hotkeys guide first then whatever race you enjoy playing, watch the guide for that then practice :)
Is there any way to simplify this? all this ctrl and shift clicking is too much. is there a way to bind these functions to single keystrokes?
Help a lot
thanks
How can i change the hero to buy something from a shop if both heros are in range to buy
Is exist a way to change hotkey for main buttons (menu - f10, log f-12) or turn off this hotkeys?
Good job.
How do you undo or remove someone from the group that you binded? For example if I have the Tauren chieftain binded at the number 2, how do I undo that?
> You select control group 2 by pressing 2
> Hold Left Shift & Left Click on the Tauren Chieftain to remove him
> Then Press LEFT CONTORL + 2 to rebind the remaining units in control group to 2 without the Tauren Chieftain
How do you pic up potion of mana?
I have a laptop is this a severe disadvantage, I've got no mouse so it's really awkward to hotkey
Why do you use the whole Keyboard and not a grid hotkey setup?
it's what I'm used too
btw when i shift the units into 1 group, then i want to get 1 unit out of that group i try with shift and then left click on it but it doesn't work.. it just u know selects the unit from the group... just like when tabing for the next unit in the group... please help? maybe it's control and left clicK?
So I already know the hotkeys pretty well, but I have 1 very MAJOR issue. I can hotkey everything except my the use of the items in my inventory. the Numbpad 78/45/12 Do not work to use my hero items and i have no other way to use items other than to click on them. How do i set inventory hotkeys? Its literally the only thing I cant figure out and its holding me back terribly
Also, I dont use reforged btw, if thats relevant at all
I use Lesco's Warcraft Toolkit www.dota-utilities.com/2008/08/some-useful-utilities.html for my Inventory hotkeys
I open it, click on Inventory Hotkeys, set them to F1/F2/F3/F4/F5/F6 and click Activate
Hey, it would be awesome and very intresting to see this view (your mouse and keyboard) in one of your streams for example in 1vs1 RT. So we can see how you use your hotkeys. Thank you for wonderful entertainment and keep up the good work! / Mårten (Sweden)
wow youtube. you are a fail at rendering. it goes 240p 360p 480p and then 1080p? what happened to 720p. do 720p BEFORE 1080p rendering youtube
i learnt you have so cool keyboard
Can you help me please?
firstly tnx for the great guide helped me alot
but do you know how to send a solider to do something before he got out?
for exemple tell someone to go to the gold mine right when he comes out
+Ofek Flesh The building that produces the unit controls the pathway that unit takes using the Rally Flag.
Select the building then right click onto the location you wish the unit to go & when they are produced they will go there.
Remember you can hold left shift whilst placing the rally flag to add additional locations the unit will move too after the initial rally flag position
Ohh thank you i got it!
How do you build multiple buildings with multiple builders selected? For example, i have 5 workers selected and i want to build 5 barracks, each worker building 1 barrack. I could not do it with control or shift, yet i see you do it a lot.
If it's the same building, shift won't work unfortunately, I don't know why, but you need to not hold shift and build them instead 5 times with the 5 peasants selected
wow cant believe i missed that, thanks wtii!
you wrote .h and soldiers went to the team against. Is it true?
wtii i love u man
One more stupid question, what buttons do i have to press, to do ''attack moving''?
+MartinGamePlay "A"
Select the unit
Press A
Left click the target/location you wish them to attack towards
Damn boi, thx
who else tried to use numbers while watching the video and changed the time from the video
Thank you!!
thanks alot you helped me alot
how you Doin mate!!!! happy to help~
the thing you helped with is to make ur "peon" automaticly goes buil EX orc burrows "dont remember name and to tired to spell right
automaticly build more than 1 so he builds automaticly like 5 houses
I have a question how do use does commands
.h .hj .k ???
Are there more commands
How do you make it so that the health bars are always visible? I've searched through the options menu and I cant find it anywhere there.
Its getting annoying pressing Alt all the time -,-
Options>Gameplay>Tick "Always show health bars"
***** Found it, but it certainly wasnt there earlier. It must only be available with the Frozen Throne exp because it only appeared after I installed that as well.
How do you make a loop-assignment? For example when scouting with a shade (undead) it's a bit lame to shift-click 35 times, also this would end at a certain point. Isn't it possible to have him keep running in a circle in the opponement's camp without having to shift-click all the time?
Shift-Click is the key unless you are just going to patrol between 2 points
Well the question is to keep e.g. a ghost (undead) patrolling between 2 points (like in the enemies camp)
Which is? >.
:o Don't know how I must have missed that :o
