Mentales Mentales I think you confused the two. See also the answer from chobok. EPM is "effective actions per minute", not "every". APM counts every click and keyboard action.

Yes he also stated why,there is a BUG that reverses them in replay. And we are not shure which one is the right one. It's correct in game and reversed in the replays. I'l edit it so i don't confuse people,but there is a slight chance it could be otherwise until fixed. Here are some examples what Blizzard thinks is redundant: Issuing the same command more than once in a row. There is a treshold of about 0,5 seconds and if you switch your groups faster than that it is considered spamming.

Regardless, APM will track all commands you put into the game; clicking a mouse, pressing a key to cycle through buildings, moving a unit etc.

EPM on the other hand will not take into account certain 'unproductive' actions, such as clicking a hotkey to cycle through buildings. Efficient actions per minute, compared to actions per minute. EPM is lower but is more important.

What, I don't get it. I think cycling through my buildings is far more effective use of APM than just clicking on a spot 20 times for a move command, you have to see when your units finish, when your upgrades finish etc. Why do they even put stuff like this in, wth is this? The only thing they achieve with this is to make it overly complicated for every new player who has no idea what APM or EAPM means, also its so much confusion if you compare your APM with other players lol.

In any case the highest number will be your apm, the other number the other thing. Oh and both numbers aren't true still i belief, as they count in ingame minutes. Just tested it in game.
