@ivushky How many GSL has Goody won?

[ivushky]

What he's saying is totally incorrect, APM does not make you win championships, just look at Goody, he's one of the best terran players out there, and he plays with very low APM, just look at what they are doing, it's mostly spam clicking the buttons, I can do the same except it annoys me. Clicking 4 times on a unit in order to select it is not useful at all and doesn't make you win games.

@Tasterisonfire none, therefore what is said in the video stays true

[DorkyCushion]

@ivushky You just said Good was one of the best terran... You lost your credibility dude.

@ivushky

except sc2 apm is not nearly as important as broodwar apm, citing Goody's accomplishments means nothing when speaking about this video in terms of apm and broodwar.

@ivushky Gosh, you StarCraft 2 geeks don't know a thing about Brood War.. Let me fill you in on Brood War, it's basically StarCraft 2 with worse graphics obviously, but harder mechanics. You can't multiselect you're whole army in one hotkey, you have individually click on each building, and theres no bullshit automine, yep that's right you click each worker back to the minerals.

StarCraft 2 Is simply SC 1 with training wheels, blizzard went noob-friendly with SC2 allowing MMO/FPS gamers to play.

@GutsLCF Really how can you compare medics with entertainment. And about E-sports not being actual sports just because you sit on a chair, then chess should also not be considered a sport. Also, not all people can be pro gamers no matter how much they play, you need really good hand eye coordonation which not all have. Moreover, they can get injured, do you think hand tendons can't be affected after playing so much?

[pliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii]

ok first of all they over push on their buttons just to get a higher APM a
