I'd say about 10 minute's worth of explanation/commenting from intrigue (over several months) was the biggest influence other than practice in me getting from D to C-.  | ||

(I'm a C- btw, this guy just joined my game and i was like... hell, why not!) Turns out he doesn't have D- play at all, probably B or higher.. He had a whopping 350 apm and amazing reaction to whatever i did. After the game, I checked his stats and matches on iccup.com, turns out it's a fake D- account.. he had 20+ losses to the same freaking person.. all 2-3 minutes long. Either he had a zvz 4 pool micro fest with his friend or he wants to SUPER noob bash with this REALLY smurfed smurf account. I was totally discouraged up to that point. He was from korea too. ugh gg On topic: Getting your APM up should be the main thing to focus on right now. Everyone that says APM doesn't matter.. doesnt matter. I averaged 104 APM in 2007 (150+ games total) only playing a few games a week. I watched a lot of progamer FPVODS and just tried to copy what they did in the game (including spamming selecting workers in the beginning) My apm shot up to 170-200 within a month into 2008. Another month passed and I was peaking at 220 average in a game. (650+ games played this year) and now my average is 280+ APM per game. good luck with your goal.  | ||
