Here's the hotkeys I use: 1 - rax 2 - cc 3 - factories (early game I use this for scout) 4 - starport 5-0 army I know that hotkeys are a comfort thing, but what's the logic behind putting your army on the left hand side when all you really need to press is a?   | ||

Army is usually on the first 4(ish) because it generally works best on the hand, for most people. If you can stretch 5-0 for it, that's awesome. | ||

1a2a3a 4ddaaaaaaaaa 1ddddaaaaa To an extent it's about comfort . In general it's about organisation while maximizing efficiency. Simply, you need to press keys fast. So what is faster? 1a2a3a or 5a6a7a8a9a. A reasonable answer would be neither. It's about what you practice and the amount of time you spend pressing set hotkeys. You could have the most disorganized hotkeys in SC2 and still be a beast because you simply practiced them enough to have your hands move at an optimal speed. I personally like to keep them very basic and organized, that way I can easily be able to locate the keys all game long in tense situations. I have practiced my keys so often that I could play blindfolded and maintain the same apm, I feel comfortable in doing so. The comfort was developed through practice. Basically find the most efficient hotkeys and practice your ass off with them, or stick to a bad set group of hotkeys but master them. Either way, it's about the speed at which you can hit them not the placement. My hotkeys 1 2 3 army 4567 buildings 89 still finding out 0 CC easy to locate, hard to master. | ||

I can press 1a2a3a in less than 1 second, so think about it like this. 1a2a3a( 1-2 second) and my army has been moved, from there I keep scrolling through my hotkeys while making sure I have my money managed to the proper hotkeys, 4ddddaa(1-2 seconds) 5sss ( 1-2 second ) 6ddvv ( 1-2 second ). In the span of time I just calculated it took, at worst, 8 seconds to push 21 keyboard hotkeys and then include the respective clicks from the mouse clicks, which would be 6. In 8 seconds you have hit 27 individual motions. Can you see where it could get confusing if half your shit was on the other side of the keyboard? Gotta be fast bra | ||
