micro, like use less units to kill another, for example. reaver&shuttle vs 4 zealots. the reaver can win if you micro. use units efficintley, not mass.

example for terran , use 6 marines and a tank vs 8 hydras. you can attack head on one by one with the rines while the tank in the back hits them.
example for zerg, (not as much for zerg), attack with zerglings and use hydras in back with them against zealots, marines. etc.
example for protoss, use reavers and a shuttle against for zealots, pick it up, move around, drop in corner, zealots run to reaver, reavers gets various.. continues..

I got reavered by aj one time it was funny, he would build scarab, then drop, shoot my money, then pick it up before I could do anything. I was laughing, I think he did it after we owned a 2v2 game or something.

Microing is using your units to full extent, everything else said is just a example.

It was already explained. There was no need to revive a thread that had already been answered to.

I never said it was against the rules ,I suggest you re-read what I posted.
I said there isnt a need to revive a 3 month old thread with a definition when it has already been posted multiple times, with the question already answered long ago.

Yes I know wc, but I remember there being a rule that said something like "No bringing up old threads unless you have something constructive to add". and I was just wondering where it was in the rules.
