EPTIm wondering what the standard hot keys used by high level players are. I havnt played enough that either standard or grid are heavily ingrained into my muscle memory so I want to focus on the more efficient one.
Do top level players use grid hotkeys?

Everyone using 1-5 for important stuff will most likely use grid. Oh weird! I use grid and 1-5 are where my important things there. I use grid because it's what I'm used to from commanding in NS. It's also just easier to get into, since I don't need to remember a zillion specific hotkeys - if I can't remember what something is, I can glance at its position without mousing over and I know what key it is. | ||

I bet if it was better supported much more top players would use custom keys as well. I for example see no point in using my pinky to press "Y" ("Z" in English layout) in order to activate most abilities. I need my pinky for shift and other stuff anyways. I got most of my hotkeys set to "D", "F", "E" and "R". Some to "X", "T", "G" and "A" for attack, "Q" for hold position and "W" for move. Works just awesome :o | ||

But right now custom keys are illegal in most tournaments. Basicly because you need to edit/replace the multiplayer.mpq thingy, which is not allowed. The GSL Qualifiers for example are played on given computers with preinstalled sc2. I bet if you try to edit the gamefiles with a 3d party program or replace some files with your own from your usb stick, it would be a matter of seconds till someone disqualified you. | ||
