Sea got 300~ apm in his blizzcon games.


Hmm maybe you're right - I didn't check the reps in BWchart. I just based of his proleague games from recent seasons (he looked very slow in the FPVOD parts). Maybe he sped up like savior did...

yeah but that's when people would play off one base for most of the game and seldom macro efficiently, therefore there was far less emphasis on multitasking.

Stork has the lowest apm by far 230-250 apm, Savior is around 250-280 apm too and that just proves you dont need a 400 apm to be good at starcraft because brain apm and decision making is more important than you hand apm ( which is mostly spam)...

Well elky was about 120/150 but its quite old héhé. I believe over 200 , i mean doing 350 or 250 does not make u better, for pros at least.

Xellos is pretty slow too, actually. Despite his 350 APM his EAPM is really low, like 150 (from recent reps vs Nada). He just spams too much.

Flash has 300 APM with 230+ EAPM, Mind has 280+ APM with 230+ EAPM, Bisu has 290+ APM with 220+ EAPM, JaeDong has 350+ APM with 230+ EAPM - those guys are very fast O_O.

Well, about Savior... he used to have 220-260 APM with 180+ EAPM, but his blizzcon games show incredible speed up to 280+ APM with 200+ EAPM, so I guess he can't be considered slow anymore.


I dont know what the hell happened to xellos, he just to be really fast and was able to maintain 400 apm just like nada, nowadays he's way slower tho.

Oh i forgot SEri[ScM] of SKT1, he's ~200 apm terran, probably one of, if not the lowest apm pro today

yes savior is notorious for being a low apm pro. he just doesnt really spam and all his actions are useful and exact >>

usually it goes from highest to lowest for races terran > zerg > protoss altho it varies depending on the matchup like tvz, ran will have higher apm with all the mm micro etc than tvp with just laying mines and seige.

and i dunno about now but it was true in the earlier days, nal_ra's apm was like 150-170 (and a lot of the earlier protoss players were around 170-200 also and ppl thought it was okay for protoss to have lower apm's). i wouldnt be surprised at all if it went up over the years tho and its pretty common for most protosses to have 300+ like everyone else now ;o

I don't know, why is it that the only two players who can play ZvP nowadays have around 400 APM (Jaedong and July)?
Pulp can move, baby!
