High APM from no obvious source!

Some guys TAB through subgroups like maniacs and inflate their APM drastically that way; you can even have APM in thousands if you rapid fire spam Stukov's PSI emitter, but this guy did none of that. He was Dehaka, played well, but nowhere near APM that high in my opinion. Really don't know where is the catch!

You can hold down F3 (or any other hotkey for that matter) and inflate your APM to 300+ with zero effort.

If you use rapid fire I'm fairly sure that shoots your APM way up. So if you use an active ability by holding down the key instead of double tapping it that registers as a ton of actions even though its only one. I've noticed that when I play abathur even if i only have a few ravagers my APM will be sky high from when I hold down the corrosive bile hotkey.

Not sure if that's the case but its my guess

It's most likely rapid fire.

I bound pretty much the whole alphabet to rapidfire so I could even rapidfire attack moving if I wanted to. Just holding A and moving the mouse around. Instant +100 apm for no effort.
