No need to single out GoOdy's unit producing bad habit as an argument about low apm players. lolol, yeah youre right, you won the argument haha | ||

Also whos gonna be laughing in the end when they can win without getting any carpal tunnel or similar injuries? You should win with the minimum APM needed carpal tunnel and spamming has nothing to do with each other. read about carpal tunnel and you would know that. | ||

I used zerg as my example as I play zerg so know it better but it applies to the other races too, I think Goody said himself that mech suits his style due to his low apm but good decision making. | ||

So APM does mean something at least. At average the person with 50 or more APM than his opponent wins twice as much. | ||

How can people still be spouting this crap when the post itself makes a strong link between the winners and high apm. Yep, Thorzain being 7th slowest player at DH sure does back up that, its not like he won something big lately. Of note: the player with the higher APM won the game 58.46% of the time. If one player's APM was at least 50 greater than the other's, that player won 65.7% of the time (from MLG columbus). So APM does mean something at least. At average the person with 50 or more APM than his opponent wins twice as much. What a good samplepool you got there, surely we can conclude something from that. | ||

Thorzain spikes a lot in his apm though, i've seen him do a lot of marinesplits and such against banes/seige tank lines that take quite fast hands to do, I think the real answer is a lot of very good players don't spam and their average apm is shown to be lower. | ||

Marinesplits does not require high apm, it does require good mouse control though. But I do think you are right about some good players being able to go to super high apm whenever needed but dont spam. | ||

I blame NaDa's early FPVod (vs SirSoni I believe) where they show his keyboard and he went at like 300+ apm. I was like 12 at the time and figured "hey that's how I'm going to play" and now it's just so natural to me that I don't think about it. | ||

Sc1 was just a battle of mechanics, aka "who is the better machine". | ||
