I play random so I would prefer to be able to use similar a similar hotkey setup for all 3 races.
If anyone has any suggestions or a setup that can be used without turning the keyboard please tell.
Thanks

Either way I use 1) CC's, 2) Barracks 3) Fac/Starports 4+ units If I play Protoss 1) Nexus's 2) Gateways 3) Robo/Starports 4+ units If Zerg (almost never) 1) Hatch's 2) main queen 3) Natural queen 4+ units and if I have more than 2 bases I use F5/F6 hotkeys to bind screens and just drag grab the queen. | ||

T: 1 - barracks 2 - factories 3 - starports 4 - cc/oc/pf 5-7 - units 8-9 - ebays/armories (primary gets placed on 8, other on 9... so if I'm going mass bio ebay will be on 8, if i'm going hard mech or sky terran armory will be on 8) 0 - random tech labs, upgrade buildings (ghost academy esp) Z: 1 - all my queens (using the minimap to inject can get tough on larger maps but i make it work lol) 2/3 - upgrade buildings (usually 3 for evos and 2 for spire, although roach warren and other such buildings can occasionally find their way in there) 4 - all hatches 5-7 (or 5-9) - units 8-0 (or 0) - overseers, utility units (infestors at expos), other random upgrade buildings... these don't usually get used a whole lot since 2/3 are all my ups P: 1 - all warp gates/gateways 2 - robo (or cyber if no robo and going air... which in team games is far too often lol... OSHI-- BANSHEES is not a recommended response) 3 - stargate (or forge if I don't have one) 4 - nexus 5-7 - units 8 - forges (if I don't have a SG) 9 - cybers if I'm upgrading air weaps (I like my gate-air play so this is frequent) 0 - obs/utility units Hope this helps... its what I used in BW and it feels very comfortable to me, since 1a is much more awkward to me than is 5a, which it sounds like what you're looking for. Also, all the harvestor structures are on 4 (great continuity), and the typical primary unit production structures are on 1 (queens do count as that lol). You can also put zerg evo/spire on 8/9 to keep it the same as the other races, although its just easier to put it on the otherwise unused 2/3 in my setup. a<3 5a6a7a 1dddaaaa2ss3dd 8ea9ev 44ssss | ||

My hotkeys (zerg) 1- Ground Army 2- Banelings 3- Mutas 4- Extra 5- Hatcheries 6- Main queen 7- Nat queen 8- Third Queen 9- 4th Queen 0- Creep Queen or 5th queen late game. To inject: 66v(Click) 77v(Click) etc An alternative if you wanna use higher numbers for armies is using 1 for main building, 2, 3, and 4 for macro (queens for zerg, rax/fact/port for terran respectively, gates/robo/stargate respectively) which leaves 5a6a7a for units (which might be hard for you, idk) and then 890 for extras/upgrades. | ||

5,6,7,8,9,0 hatches 1,2,3,4 lings early game, then later on only lurkers / defilers / ultras / mutas etc. ...which is pretty much the same as I use now on desktop. Basically, learn to turn your hand to the left. | ||

If you play random, I highly suggest you use the grid keys setup. It makes remember hotkeys much simpler since you don't have to remember every letter, just their position in the grid. | ||

always provide yourself the best condition to play is the 1st step to improve :D... only use 3 4 5 for army if you are good at using ur left pinky to type (i do :D) since sometimes you need to use CTRL and shift in battle at the same time as attacking. | ||

Basically, learn to turn your hand to the left. This is basically what I use! Learned all mah hotkeys back in BW so all my units are 1-4 and other stuff is the rest, regardless of what race I play. | ||
