This morning I was playing a TvP on Colosseum using the dropship strategy @ about C level on Iccup...
long story short, my opponent was 100 points or so short from reaching C+, and what's really funny is that he was actually a late season 130 apm scrub, no better than C- IMO.
In the game lobby he asked what does the [TL] tag in my name stand for, and I told him it's not a clan, I'm just a regular of the teamliquid forum.
Then he proceeded to show extreme frustration with every attack I made, like I was the most retarded piece of shit ever for stealing his oohh so deserved C+ rank.
In the end he called me a 'teamliquid map abuser', which I found rather funny and new.
I didn't actually respond to any of his insults, I think it's more interesting to let these kids boil by their own.
I happened to have Guncam recording, so I made a fpvod. Enjoy!

Yes, it's terrible, I'm psychically wrecked for life, an I'm currently seeking professional help![](/mirror/smilies/frown.gif)
My apm that game was 229, it's usually around 200 in long games, and up to 300 in games shorter than 10 minutes (gosu spammer ^^)

Tsk, abusing the map to your advantage... utterly disgraceful, ban-worthy imo.

since when does APM represent skill at all? im 90 APM tops and I hit B- this season =/ stop putting so much emphasis on APM.

lol...I absolutely love it when people try to rationalize their losses like that. I don't win often, so when it does happen, I cherish it.
APM doesn't directly represent skill, but there are limits to how solid your mechanics can be directly associated to APM.
If you know the game, but have a lower APM, you can more confidently abuse timings, adapt more effectively, etc.
However, someone who isn't less experienced and who has a similar understanding of the game as you will beat you if he has a higher APM AND effectively uses it. There's no arguing that his macro will be tighter, his timings more precise, and his micro more consistent.
