You have to set unit groups. First select all units you want to be able to select with one click, than press CTRL+any number (eg. CTRL+1). Now everytime you click that number, those units will get selected.

I do it like this always.
1: The hero only
2: the summons only
3: Hero and summons
All generalizations are false... including this one.

Doesn't the number drop if the summon dies. I ask is because I think it does. I was playing warlock and I dropped his ult and applied it to 2 real fast and then of course it died. Later on I ulted again and I pressed 2 and didn't grab the thing I summoned at all.

In Dota2, it doesn't. Or at least, it shouldn't. If it does, than report it. The bindings are suppose to save the unit type, not that one specific unit.


On a side note; Pressing the TAB key switches your selection between your hero and every other of your units (except courier).
