Yes high apm can mean alot of spam so the important thing to look at is EAPM even if his EAPM is 77 it is insanely low and only protoss could actually play with such low apm | ||

I think he won't go any further than c+/b- with 70apm because he can't stand a macro game vs same rank koreans. | ||

 I guess at these levels, strategy can actually hold up against mechanics... either that or ppl are spamming way too much. | ||

They can find ways to screw up your build order, no matter how badly it will screw up their macro, or continuous exceptions throughout the game. | ||

But what always makes me laugh are people with 250++APM with no gamesense and strategical thinking at all who never go further than C-. I haven't seen him in ages, but case[shock] was a 275+ apm Terran who I played once. He sat on 120 supply with over 4k minerals. Also he never got farther than his nat, mainly since I could just afford to 1a2a3a units at him from my five expos. ... Seriously, it makes you wonder what the hell these people are doing with all that APM. | ||

no he plays normally and straight up (atleast in the games I've played against him) and is more like 110-130 apm, but he just a very solid player who knows what to do in given situations and does everything cleanly with no spam. | ||

His apm was over 200. I just don't really understand what these people do with all those actions if they're not really doing anything at all. | ||

Well he just does the logical thing, play straight up against people you think are worse or equal to you and cheese against someone who you are unlikely to beat in a standard game. | ||

I've seen many D+/C- toss with APMs no more than ~100, but I can't recall any zergs or terrans above D- with less than 120, tbh. | ||

Either that was a brilliant burn or I over analyzed it. I can believe a 70 apm C- player. In my opinion it's the jump from C- to C/+ where more APM is necessary for the multitasking required. 70 should be enough to basic macro/micro skills, me thinks. | ||

Everyone knows how apm works and then someone rephrases himself badly or maybe generalize and someone else feels like I do and THEN a newbie comes along knowing nothing and boom! It's a 7 pager... | ||

I just don't really understand what these people do with all those actions if they're not really doing anything at all. It's just a style. I don't know why people think it's something to attack others over. For example, my APM is usually 350-400. When I lose, people seem to think it's something to insult me over. They say ROFL I RAPED U AND U HAD 350 APM. Yes, so? It's just how I play. My fingers run over my hotkeys alot. Big deal. It's not like I'm consciously TRYING to boost my APM. I don't even think about it. I just use my hotkeys a ton and click a lot. | ||

I don't care about someone's apm regardless of how good they are, as there are examples of both high and low apm players playing at a very high level, but if you're doing absolutely fucking nothing while apparently doing a lot of actions, it makes you wonder if they actually know what's going on or if they're just doing completely pointless things. | ||

Something is wrong if you don't have over 80 apm. I really think you NEED at lest 90 apm to play protoss at C level, otherwise how can you macro? Even with NO SPAM CLICKS Whatsoever, it's just about impossible to have perfect macro/micro with only 90 apm | ||
