My APM is around 40, sometimes up to 50. I don't really spam click at all, and so far it's not really a problem up to 2 bases, so I haven't really given it any thought. But it's at the stage where it hasn't really moved from about the time I was high bronze until now when I am perhaps on the verge of gold. It's really hurting me in macro games on multiple bases, especially when it comes to unit upgrades (it's pretty easy to keep unit production strong, but upgrades fall by the wayside) - I'll upload a replay when I get home from work this evening of a 200/200 army production as an example
I played some 2v2 with my friend yesterday, and I was shocked to see that he had the same APM as me.
One game I checked a replay to see why he only had 40 supply worth of army at 15 minutes when I was around 120-150, and realised he had been rallying SCVs to his gas. He had 18 SCVs queued at his refinery and only 7 or 8 mining.
We both had about 40APM
Just about every game these days, I see an opponent with higher APM - normally ranging between 60-80. Since it's a hurdle that many other low leaguers have crossed, I'm looking for some advice - how did you increase your APM?
