It’s not really reaction time that holds most players back, per se. it’s more not knowing what to do in situations and having to slow down to think and then doing the wrong thing.

reaction time is probably the opposite of what you should be looking at as a biometric. foresight and an understanding of the game state are much more (learn-able and) appropriate skills that would be tied to performance.

maybe once in every few games, reaction time comes into play. for instance when sc2 was first released in pvz you had to stare at your ramp waiting for the baneling bust to forcefield. nowadays, there are far less unforgiving split-second game wins/losses and the game's mechanics have, with every passing expansion and patch, moved away from this finickiness. and i think it is for the better just for the game, not to mention you dont need ~100-150ms reaction time to play at a high level

174ms and that felt quite slow (I'm also soon 30 years old. Teenagers and early 20s should be quicker). If people have over 200ms, try sitting closer to the screen. If more of your field of vision fills up with the color, it's easier for the signal to bypass your cognitive brain and go directly to your finger, instead of you having to actively think to do it.

As other have mentioned tho, this has almost assuredly nothing to do with sc2 abilities.

holy shit how did those guys get 135... im average around 200ms... top200 in sc2

The site doesn't move on if you click to early, and rather gives you another chance. You could just keep guessing until you get lucky and end up with a ridiculous low number with no representation of reality.
