EPTOr will it be two human players, each having to also control their own separate micro arenas?
An option to do either would be the best, IMO.

Those small scale battles are nice, but later on I think you'll want to create situations. For example, Fend off a 6 pool rush with 3 x 2 zerglings coming in approximately 25 seconds after, while you only have 12ish probes and a pylon. That seems like more like an anti-cheese training but the micro required to prevent a huge amount of probe loss can be considered to be APM training. Later on larger battles would be preferable to. Plus have different terrains, not just have them all in one big flat field (I dunno if you did that, haven't played the map yet) I can give you match up ideas later, but here are a few examples. [Toss matchups] Zealot, Sentry and Stalker VS 2 marines and 3 marauders. (common early push experienced by PvT) 2 phoenixes, 3 zealots, 2 sentries, 2 stalkers, VS 20 speedlings and 5 mutalisks. (mutalings are sooo common in PvZ) [Terran matchups] 2 ghosts, 8 marines, 5 marauders VS 2 immortals, 6 stalkers and 5 zealots. (very standard mid-game comp for toss) 4 red hellions vs 20 regular zerglings [Zerg matchups] 5 roaches vs 4 zealots, 2 stalkers 2 corrupters, 4 mutalisks, 10 hydras and 20 lings, vs 2 collosi, 8 zealots, 8 stalkers. Yea I kinda got carried away but I'm just moving in a direction from pure apm training to actual battle simulations. I think it's funner that way and it still practices your APM  | ||

I have a problem with the quoted part of the OP, particularly the part in bold. You'd have to be very careful and precise about how you define wasteful apm. Clicking twice or more really close to each other shouldn't be automatically tagged as wasteful because it can be necessary for precise control of units a lot of the time. I also have a suggestion for the arena -- put in some worker harassment scenarios where you must either defend harassment or instigate it. Worker losses could be used to determine success or failure, as well as whether or not you survive the encounter. | ||

My toss ideas are: 3 stalkers + 2 zealots vs 4 stalkers 5-6 stalker vs 5-6 stalker (as mentioned) collosis + zealot vs blink stalker pheonix + stalker vs pheonix + stalker pheonix vs mutas + queen zealot/stalker/sentry vs roach/sling templar + zealot (maybe a sentry) vs hydras collosis + sentry vs hydra Collosis + stalker vs Viking + marine/marauder zealot vs marine zealot + stalker vs thor + scv templar + zealot vs marine + marauder I would also like to test the map; Susimaka.445, but yeah, I really think you should add a vs player feature. | ||
