Haha! I used to be the champion at Unreal Tournament (the original).
In my 20’s. Now I play Starcraft II competitively 2v2 every week for a few hours. The metric they use to gauge ‘fastness’ is APM or Actions Per Minute. Mine is around 38. I’m in my 40’s. Usually the people we play that are any good are 80-150 APM. It’s true. The older we get the less clicky clicky we can do. I like to think I make up for it in strategy. I’m only in the Platinum league, but hey, I only play once a week for a few hours.
