Well m does marines, and k does dark templar. Can't think of L off the top of my head.

Edit: I Don't play zerg but I imagine L does lurkers.

Maybe instead of making a thread where you ask which keys are uneccissary you should instead take a small amount of time to make a guide of which keys are ok to rip out depending on your race. Then if you make mistakes people will notify you in the comments.
Why would I play sctoo when I can play BW?
