Thread: This cold weather is affecting my SC2 apm! help!

  1. #1

    Default This cold weather is affecting my SC2 apm! help!

    I live in Australia, so it is winter over here at the moment, and although it is far from snowing it gets pretty cold (5-10 Celsius) in the mornings/evenings.

    I'm finding that the cold weather is affecting my hands in that they are not moving as fast or are as responsive when playing SC2/SC1. Surely those of you that live in colder countries have this problem. Is there any advice to avoid this apm affecting problem while playing SC2? Warm mittens or something? I don't have a heater

    I am from Canada (much colder than Aussie) and yeah: you need a heater. Buy a personal one off the stores for like 20$ (canadian) and plug it in close to you when you're playing. That's the only way.

    Never experienced this before. Cold temperatures always wake me up and make me move faster. Granted, my only experience with below zero temperatures outside is while skiing and snow boarding.

    I guess you're supposed to spam to keep your fingers warm (keep jamming random keys as fast as you can).

    I ARE A PROPHET! I've predicted three major aspects of SC2 correct, more or less.

    June 2007 - I predicted the Protoss campaign would give you new tech as you conducted diplomacy among tribes.

    oooh 5-10 Celsius, so cold, try -35 celsius.
    Buy a Zipo hand warmer and keep it close by to grab when your hands get cold.

    I think you need to download a map. I hear you can still play "build order testers" and things like that. I haven't tried any yet, though. Too busy
