I am really trying to play as fast as I can at the moment.
I've always been a "low apm"-player in Wc3 and also in Sc2 but I just realized that it actually IS important to be as fast as possible.
So now I'm training vs the AI, the only focus being to have as much actions as I can.

You'd be surprised how slow people can play and be good at sc2, its disgusting really .

But yes, if you want to get faster, its just a matter of practicing your builds and knowing what to do in every situation, your APM will increase as that happens.

Well, my 50 apm at 4 am in the morning will definitely not be enough to be good

You're practicing to get better APM? No, just don't. Play to get better. As you get better, your speed will increase. That is all.

I practice to play faster, that's not the same as playing for APM.
I really don't wanna have this "is APM important"-discussion again; this is my way, take it or leave it.
