No wanting to start an argument or anything but i really don't agree with that. I don't think anyone can say that one race is more APM intensive then another when it comes to macro. And i also don't agree with the OP when he says that there isn't alot of micro a Zerg has to do, but i'll forgive him for that since this thread is really old now and it's such a good read, very helpful for players of all calibre i think | ||

I will probably first release a guide on increasing your effective APM in a zerg specific context, but this feedback I can use for that guide as well. I hope this is an acceptable bump, as this is really my only place for getting feedback on my guide writing style before posting another 10,000+ word guide or two. (that's a lot of work, and I want it to be better than this one!) edit: Pfft. The second guide is at 5k words, and I'm not even 20% done. | ||

Anyways, my feedback to get your article from a 9 to a 10? Pictures. Just to break the pages up a bit. | ||

Almost all my wins are due to my harassment / multi-proned attacks, where my opponent falls apart and I win due to superior management/multitasking. And all my losses are due to sitting in my base and playing the macro game. I just feel so inadequate when it comes the "mind" aspect of the game (if I can't harass effectively or gain sort of macro advantage through other means I just die to equal economy opponents, simple as that -_-), and I ALWAYS rely on my mechanics to win games by simply being faster than my opponent. T user, ~1100 US masters peak and currently playing in China in mid-masters with ~ 250/160 APM/EAPM (sc2gears). | ||

I can understand that some players spam commands out-of-combat to keep focused, but does this really cover all players? Do you get more productive by spamming commands that doesn't ahve any effect? I bet some of them are just spamming so that their APM stats look like the pros. | ||

Casting/abilities - Zerg has the Queen which is very frequently used, as it is nearly required for macro. Common zerg attacking units do not have abilities unless burrow is researched. Overlord/overseer have abilities to increase map vision, which is required for competent play. Zerg has one offensive caster, the infestor What about the corruptor? 'corruption' is an offensive ability. | ||
