Per-minute metrics
Per-minute metrics (GPM / XPM) are stats used to evaluate a player's efficiency:
- GPM (Gold Per Minute) — the amount of gold earned per minute. The higher, the better the farming. For example, a good carry might have 600+ GPM.
- XPM (Experience Per Minute) — the amount of experience gained per minute. It's crucial for leveling up quickly. For instance, an active midlaner can easily reach 700+ XPM.
Both metrics show how useful a player is to the team in terms of resources and progression.
