Dammit I had a feeling it was going to be based on protoss. I'm actually really considering changing my hotkey setup soon, it gets me to mid-game but late-game it's not very effective.

Hotkey setup is not really too important.. I think.

Top progamers have all kind of hotkey setups, also look at Incontrol's hotkeys, he almost hotkeys only his hatcheries and still he won WCG usa 1.5 year ago etc.
And all is illuminated.

its not about how you hotkeys

it's about how you use your keyboard. for example some zergs use both hands when they macro 0sh9sh8sh7sh7sh while some can do that job with only 1 hand... 4sz5sz6sz7sz8sz9sz

fingers placement are REALLY important for SC. There is a reason why some people tend to improve slow but some can improve really fast.

Why doesn't anyone remove F1? It's right beside F2 and it only brings up Help and Tips. I often press it by accident, so I remove it.

Wow... I just realized i always use the ctrl key on the left side of the keyboard instead of the one on the right which is much more accessible, and I'm a protoss player. I'll have to try that.

i translated to hungarian this one, as well as the first one. I hope Nick doesnt minds. Of course i linked the original source too, but many ppl from the hungarian community at starcraft2.hu arent comfortable with english

Inc is a mechanically unsound player. Not saying he isn't good, though. And not saying you can't compensate for unsound mechanics in other ways. But... it's a way to improve.
