In Wc TFT.. I was woundering how do people get a apm of 200+..? I tried spaming from rally point to controll group, even the buildings at the start yet my apm is around 113-130 never went higher...(when i mean i spam..for the whole game)...so how do they do that?

I am in the 100s area naturally and I don't play FT often where as vlad naturally is on the 140s area. We don't spam. I strongly advise you to try to not spam to achieve high apms. Non spam apm pwns and is in part due to the players natural skill and part due to expereince. Keep trying to do the most you can in battle and make use of the shift key.
There are local players that have almost 200 apm but spam, what do they do? they constantly spam groups, 12 12 12 123 123 123 etc etc in and out of battle.
Whatever works oui.
heard that some of the 'gosus' claim they spam simply to keep themselves from becoming lazy or complacent. if they're spamming from the start (when their aint all THAT much to do), the instant they have need for the high apm micro, they have already 'warmed up' in a sense and their apm might even get higher during the battle without actually spamming...
makes sense, however, apm aint everything. jus keep working on your flaws and especially watchin them reps. gg
humans ftw :p

what is APM?
actions per minute.
different programs are known to calculate it in different ways, however it is basically how many mouse clicks and keyboard button presses that are done every minute..

hmmmm...well i not good in normal...actually hardly played that much games but i played starcraft alot and was like 190 apm but thats sc...warcraft gives u shortcuts to most things starcraft does...i basically used many groupings (1-0) and i even did this in normal and was around 120 apm...but i think grubby and them have such high apms from both groupings and mass amounts of right clicks and shifts..WOW...
However if u want to see some massive micro skills...look at Moon replays or Sky
very good examples (even Lucifer but i done know u is a undead player). also try slowing these replays' speed to see exactly whats happenin

oh well in that case... i think spamming to get high apm eh make sense even for gosu's. as far as i is a way to measure ur micro and speed right? so spamming for it is like cheating right

Its cheating sorta, its just cheating yourself. If you have a VERY high spammed APM and loose, then what sense did the spaming do but to make you appear on paper to be a 'gosu'.
