http://repdepot.net/replay.php?id=51308 (from 2005) but G.s)Kyo wins highest spam rate as well: ~70% hotkey usage a rep from 2011 with 518 apm http://repdepot.net/replay.php?id=51309 fastest progamer now is By.Cola from CJ i think, he is usually above 400, often 450+, close to 500 By.HerO is fast too but rather ~300-400, just like NaDa was and many many other progamer nowdays. july peaking once at 800 doesn't mean shit lol. he just held down the keys... the apm highly depends on the matchup, build, and length of the game. generally if there is more ongoing micro, and the rep is short, the apm will be higher. for example zergs usually have higher apm when using 2 hatch muta in zvt because its a heavy micro build and requires both hatchery spam and constant muta micro that means many move clicks at the same time. (thats why by.hero had so high apm vs fantasy in a 9minute game... but in other cases he is "just" ~350) i think all progamers have pretty high e-apm, especially in TvZ where terrans need to do so many things, 250-60 Eapm in tvz is not rare at all in progaming standards. PvZ on the other hand is usually much more defensive so eapm stays lower there i think. Bisu still has 200+ eapm there too tho-.- his eapm is especially high. but you don't need to have high apm to be successful, Savior raped everyone back then with ~230 normal apm, Fantasy has ~250, Stork ~270. Movie reached the osl final with his 220ish normal apm. Clever play and concentrating on the key micros is the most important. | ||

This is confirmed to be Bisu btw. most progamers average around 200 or something eAPM, anyone can spam and get a highass peak, you can see it in alot of Kingdom reps, where people are like OMG HE PEAKED AT LIKE 1K SO GOOD, where in reality he's holding down ctrl 1 or 1 the entire time.

When NaDa first started out his hands were faster than pretty much everybody. Mechanically speaking he could hammer people into the ground with Boxer-like micro combined with absurd (by the standards of the day) multitasking ability. As other players began catching up mechanically, NaDa's answer seemed to be trying to play even faster. By comparison, I think one of the biggest advantages Flash had was that he skipped all of that. By the time Flash came along, everybody had very high apm with 300+ being very common. Flash probably has the highest e-apm of anyone, but he doesn't actually have the fastest hands (although his hands are really fucking fast). Mechanically speaking, Flash's key to success is that he focuses only on what's important and does a better job of that than anybody else. The different mindset leads to a different evolution as a player. NaDa wants to click more, more, more because that's what you have to do if you want to win on speed. Flash of course also clicks very fast, but the emphasis on focusing on what's important means prioritizing making clicks count over quantity of actions. It has a lot to do with the respective eras these guys evolved in. | ||

As for 'regular' APM the highest I've seen in replays was G.s)Kyo who was pretty much always above 500. I don't know his EAPM since EAPM counters weren't around back then but I'd be surprised if it was over 220. Also it seems like progamers have significantly higher APMs in broadcast games than in practice games. The post-game stats in broadcast games are always 20-50% higher than any replays that I have. For example, Flash seems to have 350+ in his broadcast games, but in all of his replays (admittedly old) he has high 200s/low 300s. Yes, please don't talk about peaks, most of the absurdly high APMs are just people holding down ctrl+1. Also I don't think a 800+ peak is that hard in SC2 when you can just hold down 'R' with 40 larvae selected. On July 07 2012 04:56 arb wrote: + Show Spoiler + ![]() So uh wheres this 500 APM at?

Look, when bisu is microing his PvZ corsairs, theres practically no reduncancy, he is at super sayan level practically during that time | ||

I mean hell playing TvZ at the C Level i could make my battles vs large armies go to like 400 easily, and im by no means as good as Bisu or Flash. | ||

It's the average APM that matters . If i am not mistaken,Nada and July average APM usually hover between 450-550 APM.Possibly highest i have seen. Though there was this one time July had 818 APM while micro-ing 2 muta group at the same time in TvZ(ZerO and JD are other two that does this exceptionally well). But then we got Fantasy,Flash and way back Savior that are known for their sick decision making and strategies but does not have like super super high APM.Mostly usually hover around average 250-300ishhh. | ||
