IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

I used QWER from the beginning of Dota 2. Legacy keys are ineffective sometimes.
Logic fails because we are lazy.

There are always bug with legacy hotkey every time a new hero came out. Its safe to say that legacy is the most inefficient keybind since any other ways could be customized and cater into your own habit and game play.
Im daed. Follow me @TL_NB

I guess that specific issue isn't a problem with me personally since, as a habit of wc3 DotA, I never care to play new heroes in ap until at least a week later.

Legacy bugs out when you DC and reconnect iirc. It has had issues since the beginning, so it's not surprising a lot of people switched. But it's not as big a deal as some people make it seem, there's no real reason to switch out of it if you feel comfortable with it.

Personally I used to be from Legacy keys in DOTA1. Then i left for HoN, which forced me to use QWER, which stuck with me.

I didnt pick up the default Alt-Q W E etc for HoN items though, feels weird. I edited my HoN to be using WC3 item keypad lol.

When DOTA2 came out, I was pretty used to QWER from HoN, so I didnt miss the Legacy keys that much.

You actually switched to the WC3-style keypad for items? It was so out of the way, everyone got WarKeys just to get rid of that.

QWER just makes sense. So much easier with all the item hotkeys.

Yeah it was during HoN lol. Way too used to keypads for WC3 by then,however during DOTA2 i switched my item usage again, to my current setup of Z X C V and 2 mouse buttons.

Keypad basically limited me to numpad 7 4 for items as those are easier to hit in a hurry back then. I was pretty much a noob who can't use more than 2 items at one go,so it worked out fine

I actually like C? Like it's one of the more convienent buttons for item usage for me. Dont know why, but pressing C feels very smooth and easy. It's why i put often used items there so it's easier to press.

Biggest problem with QWER is that A is right under Q.

TRED, since I played pudge the most in dota 1. Had to adjust my hands to the others like sf, potm, and qop though. Items are a bit weird at f g space z x c.
