you are diamond on Korean servers? If so I tip my hat to you sir.

I was platinum on my american server and can barely crack gold on the Korean server. There are just way too many god damn good players.

Actions per minute, it's a measure of how many times you hit keys or click the mouse.

I've been out of the loop for a few years, but normal macro APM is around 100 or so, anything more than that is pretty much just spam. The exception being micro, where good players will get absurd numbers like the 200-300 quoted in the article.
