Honestly, it's a big conception that success in RTS games rely on high APM. Great strategy and macro will get you to the 99th percentile in most rts games. I notice that a lot of players that are in the lower percentiles are those who focus more on trying to improve APM rather than strategy or macro.

- dropit_sphere 4y agoThere are some assumptions here: - you made marines - they are accessible to a-moving banelings without having to go around terrain and/or through tank fire, marauders, mines It's quite possible to do low-apm styles in SC2, but you have to actually do them, rather than trying to be budget Maru.
- Icathian 4y agoInfamously, successful SC2 pro player Whitera only had about 100-125 APM. I manage that pretty comfortably as a middle aged dude. I think you could definitely do more to de-emphasize micro, but even the big bad SC2 isn't as high-APM as people think.
