I use it for CVB solely though, especially helpful when injecting, 66v77v88v99v would be extremely awkward without the thumb. | ||

Pinky resting on CNTRL Middle resting on W Thumb resting on SB I'd find it super weird not using my thumb hah. I noticed a lot of people use the 'alt' key, I NEVER use that key, I find it so uncomfortable. | ||

I used to have a hotkey problem where i messed up my scouting probe and building probe. When that happened I stopped playing for a second and thought about what just happened. Turned out that I was holding my hand too low on the keyboard and accidentally would hit ctrl sometimes and mess up the hotkey groups. Changed my form and now it never happens again. | ||

It's basicly a built in reflex from playing Warcraft 3 and I don't really think about it. Rest of the fingers just fly around on the keyboard and takes care of all the other hotkeys really. I do this too and it has the advantage of making you look like a baller apparently | ||

Im in mid diamond and do exclusively use the hotkeys, when im practised and warmed up i hit 200+ apm. My main reason for posting this question was that in the heat of a game i usually have a good margin of error over some hotkeys when before in my life as a gamer i've very rarely missed keyboard keys, was trying to discern if there was any real reason for this, note i've never played a game as intense as sc2 before now though. Im putting it down to practise and am going to grind through it. btw i dont exclusively use the thumb for the bottom keys as often i will BN/BG/VB/BF with middle finger and index. Also my keyboard is rather old and slimey, i'll get a new one. ty liquidians | ||
