U need a recent enough version of bwcharts (http://www.bwchart.com) then when U load a replay -> Action distribution and have percentage option checked. | ||

If the game isnt important, my apm is 20-25 LESS THAN IT IS IF THE GAME IS IMPORTANT. On most wgt/practice games, my apm is roughly 95-100, like kiddie. When I played wcg syracuse and my real wcg games in california, my apm was 115-125. It really is a matter of concentration. And sometimes I do play slowly and I know it. If I concentrate and try to play faster, I get more done and play better. apm isnt a great measure of skill (although an obvious correlation exists), but it IS a good measurement of speed. | ||

If you macro your gates really quickly and then do nothing, as someone suggested, then you are wasting time. Every second during which you do nothing is a second that you opponent used to gain a slight advantage over you. There is always something to be attended to in Starcraft, and a large part of becoming a really good player isn't building arm muscle for speed (ludicrous, if you think about it), but always knowing what to do next, or even several steps into the future. That is what allows for sustainably high APM. | ||

I wanna use the keyboard more when I play (I use it for about 30% of my actions as it is now) and I want to bring that up. Thus I try to improve my apm. I try to do everything I do faster, even though it may mean that the first few times I'll make misstakes it's worth it in the long run. I'm not trying to micro/macro better- I'm trying to do it FASTER and then ultimately improving my play as a whole-__- | ||

Yes, I never do 1212121212 I do, 1 2 3 (checking up on units, checking surroundings, movings obs, backing hurt units) 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 making units, setting rally point to where my army is currently at). | ||

 Moving faster at first and then take this moves to micro and macro and like he wrote when you play normally you play faster. I took the same way like Arbiter and it works. I do everything faster better than I did it before. I was about 150 and now I'm about 240-300 APM and not every clicks of course are usefull but despite it I went better. | ||

are those APM's really that hard to get?? i mean, _i_ couldnt get 300, but when i mentioned how hard APM was to testie, he told me its useless - and proceded to get 280 in the 1v1 we had. He averages 130-150. If Testie can do it, couldn't others' as well? sorry for being very very late, but Testie's APM can reach this. Don't know if u knew, but Testie played in TLTour, under the account 'AlwaysOvr200APM' (finished #37, 44-8). His APM ranged from 200-500, one game it was 510, one game 490, other games were 300s, 200s. The only time it dropped was the last 2 days of season when he was struggling to get top 32. | ||
