I used to play on the top 15 for Halo Wars and I do believe that my APM was peaking high 100's and 200's on that game when the going got tough. Camera controls are just much more fluent on the controller; and I feel that you can keep doing tasks quickly without the repetitive strain you get on a keyboard. So it doesn't take me by surprise that this is possible. However you are playing Starcraft 2.

Starcraft 2.

Let that sink in for a minute. This means that you have to be "as accurate as a mouse". Literally.

Mad respect for you!

incredibly impressed! now blizzard will want to capitalise on this lol


I already gave them my key setup, I guess if they thought it was possible to make it work for a lot of people they would already be working on it at the moment, no idea. XD

Actually that's not entirely true. You do get strained by using the game pad if you play at a certain level. although it seems to stress your hands in a different way then if you were on a keyboard and mouse. For explain I don't really get wrist pain in less I really lay into it. Depends on how much I wanna spam actions. About 220 apm for me is a happy medium not too fast that I will burn out quickly and not too slow either. My hands will hurt after an 8-10 hour session of playing star craft 2 no matter what though ^^;

Yeah I get what you mean, from my Xbox day I remember getting a lot of finger pains and pains on the tops of my hand, with SC2 it's a lot more wrist pain I get.

God, Starcraft two and guitar 'shredding' are two of my hobbies, RSI inducing if every there was a double whammy of hobbies to guarantee it

Cool stream man, impressed that you are able to exhibit this level of play with the Xbox controller
