I recorded a new APM video of Losira The guy still has the sickest APM in the game or at least the most impressive performance while playing. Hope you enjoy the video!

afaik it's so it's easier to reach the higher numbers like 8,9,0 I think people did it in BW more where you needed more command groups, but I don't know for sure

I have it that way too, for me it's just that it feels more comfortable that way, feels like that's the position that makes me move my hand in the most comfortable way without bending my wrist in weird ways.
Impressive as always. I'm pretty sure if I tried to play at that speed I'd accomplish absolutely nothing and my hand would cramp up after about a minute.
more than being the fastest, he looks to me like he has the biggest finger movement, which makes his play look the flashiest but not necessarily the fastest.
that's ~1800apm between 0:42 and 0:52 alone, and that's timed to 0.0225 second windows
This kid just presses 4 buttons over and over again
Still impressive... Same goes for Losira's video. But Jaedong's video was more impressive, his hands were slower than losira's but there was far less spamming and far more effective APM.
That's impressive. But even more impressive is that this shows that APM in SC2 is not that important for the overall skill, as for example it was in SCBW - at least if you are on a somehow decent level. Because I'm sure most will agree that even though Losira has a very high APM he is at the moment very far away from the Korean top level.
Well APM doesn't equal skill but I guess it's a pre-requisite if you want to play on the top level. You'll have to agree that except for 3-4 players ALL of the top SC2 players have very high APM.
Still my favorite player out there, to bad he's in a tough period skill wise atm. If there ever was most beautiful apm, i't have to be him. Let's all watch and enjoy as LosirA play's that piano er keyboard.
