I actually use the Ajazz Ak33, what I've done is bound F1-F4 as hotkeys 7,8,9,0. I use my Fkeys on tilde,tab,caps.
Also I play with a great deal of commands on c,v,b where my thumb basically does a lot of work. to kinda make it useable in both daily drives and starcraft use i have keycaps that extend out of specific keys so that its really easy for my fingers to find themselves. My only problem as of now is the board came with 65g'ish and they are pretty hefty not gonna lie, thinking of putting reds in or some shit if its easy.
Honestly I wouldnt say that the rebinds are worth if you have a great deal of muscle memory built up, you are fighting yourself more than the game at that point. For me coming back to RTS i decided to try it, I don't regret it but its a long term commitment to see any benefits. I'd still have to put in just as much time as anyone else you may have a theoretical higher ceiling but until someone comes out and does it I think its fine.

Does Alt key do anything? I never used it. All I found that it might be any use is (from liquipedia entry):
Alt+Click on own unit: Select all units of its last group (group = units selected by any way)

Say you select a group of units and tell them to do something. If you alt click on any one of those units that you just selected, it'll re-select the whole group.

This is beyond lame. Depending on keyboard you get to remap hotkeys or not. So much for worrying about comp advantages. Circus.

Thanks. I just tried it in-game, seems like a redundant feature when you can just press the hotkey number to select your control group. The other Alt functions seem redundant as well, don't see myself using this key other than Alt-Tabbing

alt + c centers camera on unit, i use this every game xD

Odd of OP to not include software means for custom hotkey setups. Probably stems from trying to avoid stepping on the toes of the pedantry between OG and custom hotkey setups. Enough derailing, move to another thread to discuss semantics.
StarCraft Remastered has not (yet?) implemented key layering and custom hotkeys for camera and unit selection. TheCore and an alternation of TheCore, TheCore Lite, has had significant community response and research exceeding over half of a decade. TheCore Lite has the best of familiarity, ergonomics, and speed of any custom hotkey layout.
On the Razer Blade through Razer Synapse each key input can be changed to another key.
In a best attempt to emulate TheCore Lite in StarCraft Remastered on a Razer Blade:
![[image loading]](https://i.imgur.com/4o6YorG.png) Red: Camera Hotkeys Purple: Control Groups Blue: All-Purpose Buttons, i.e., spells, buildings, attack commands Green: Shift Cyan: Control
Notes:
- camera hotkeys may want to be pushed in slightly to the right for comfort.
- shift and control buttons are positioned for comfort, completely subjective to the user

Damnit TT1... I have a custom keyboard but the Plum84 is super tempting now. Pretty fair price for bluetooth and rgb and "topre" switches which I never tried before, might have to give it a go. What are your thoughts on yours?

lmao TT1
my MacBook keyboard is the best way to play sc yo xD

I didnt buy the Plum84 cus it has 35g switches, i bought the Plum75 cus it has 45g switches which are great for gaming (plum75 also has close f keys, not as close as plum84 tho). Still haven't gotten it yet, i'm currently using a topre realforce keyboard and they're by far the best switches i've ever used.. and i own like 15 keyboards. Plum keyboards don't use real topre switches tho, they're topre clones.
A real topre keyboard costs anywhere from 230 to 300$. You can get a plum 75 for 99$ (black version, no bluetooth/rgb etc.) or 130$ (white version with pbt caps). Plum 84 costs like 120 or 130$. Looks like a great value board, the reviews i've read so far have all been really positive.

Yeah, the Plum75 is nice but I need home/end keys. I went with a custom board with gateron reds over a topre, makes me curious now to know what topre's would be like... hnggg

A little update, the board I built i kind of stopped using, since it's a hassle to have 2 keyboards on your desk, i now have this layer on my gh60 based build:

I don't think i could ever get used to a layout like that . I'd much rather use regular f keys (preferably closer f keys like on the plum 84 and 75), you can cycle through the keys quicker (which is really important when you wanna evacuate workers or build them).
putting shift on spacebar is cute tho, i like that. makes it easier to setup your cam keys.
|
u don't need keyboards with programmable keys. all keyboards can do that with certain programs or changing stuff in the registry.
i love this though, I love good keyboards. how they feel...
|
What did it cost you to make this keyboard? What kind of tools do you need to make it happen? And from 1 to 10 how difficult was everything. From editing the layout to building it?do you have any good videos of how to do this? and what website did you use?

If you want a real legit sick KR board look at : http://winkeyless.kr
![[image loading]](https://scontent-lhr3-1.cdninstagram.com/t51.2885-15/e35/13628233_517890971729253_601883836_n.jpg)
an example of what you can get, but everything is customizable when you put it together on the site. That certain model is the b.mini which I thought would be nice for RTS because the F keys and number keys are aligned and everything, and it has been so far.
As for help on what to get you could just email the guy and he is really good at communicating and trying to get you exactly what you want, you can get it mostly assembled by him but it costs extra

My previous keyboard died last night. I ordered the Velocifire TKL78 mechanical keyboard last night for $28.99, anyone have experience with or use this keyboard?

Are all of these Mechanical keyboards or not? Because they seem extremely basic and standard if they aren't Mechanical, I cannot understand the over 100$ pricetag, just sayin...

I can't see myself ever buying a $100+ keyboard. Screwwwww that.
