This is just gonna end up in an APM-whine thread again probably...
atleast it proves that APM doesn't mean too much aslong as you have enough to do proper multitasking.

According to the Team Liquid game speed wiki entry it is 1.38 (which uses Tamer as the source, he says 1.39 though). Check http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Game_Speed

He is listed with 98...


Only idiots go by sc2 apm. Its Actions Per Minute, not "Actions per poorly designed blizzard minute"


Doesnt matter. No one is gonna bother calcing out the average "real" apm 99% of the time. People will refer to the apm as shown ingame. I do agree that it's silly that blizz doesnt show real apm ingame though.

You could see in the July game on Shakura's that Sjow's didn't have the multitasking (or apm) to handle all the multi pronged attacks. I think it is a relevant point in his case.

130 APM is enough to do all you need to do in Sc2 if you use it efficiently.

Well, for now. I think it's gradually changing though. Can you keep up with MMA's multitasking with 130apm? Doubtful.

For comparison's sake, is there a similar list for BW progamers?

I've put alot of reps into bwrepinfo before, and it seems a good average is around 400-425, with EAPM of around 220-250.

But then there are guys like stork who are slow, and guys like hero who are ridiculously fast (but still do terrible).

That's not related to APM, it's related more to lack of production buildings. Other low apm players don't do it.

Even in BW there are player who succeed with relatively low apm--maybe not 130, but definitely down around 200. And the super high apm beyond that doesn't necessarily equate to greater success..

Frankly, I think the apm differences between the games are fairly overblown. Basic not sucking requires less apm in SC2, but if you have the apm for it there are enough apm sinks, particularly in high level micro, that you'll be able to put it to good use, as MC for example does mixing in crazy blink play with normal army control and not letting his macro ever slip.

a list like this should be compared to BW foreigners though, and I'm pretty sure that in BW there were several decent foreigners who had below 200 apm

Players must play well, high APm will be after that. But not first super-fast APM with terrible gamestyle, foodblocks, no scouting, etc.

So that obviously still clearly shows that his 130 apm are not used in the most effective way?
Even top players in SC2 are still not that amazing compared to BW, saying you surely dont need more apm is kinda silly

Well i think in a strategy game it should be more important what you do, then how fast you can press buttons or click the mouse.

Then it ain't so strategical anymore...

Yeah the Koreans in general are much higher. An average Korean top 10 would probably be 350 or something.

This post is just wrong.

MC, Bomber, July, were all at that tournament. They're nowhere near 350, they're top Koreans. Top koreans don't "average" 350.
