Using grid, I planned to change attack to A but I'm not sure now, I'm probably too used to T-moving hehe. Though I will probably change burrow and unload to A or S, those are kind of fumbly for my small hands.

I probably won't change anything.. I'm so used to the default zerg setup. maybe inject but I've practiced 55v66v77v88v so much that it isn't much of an issue

I like the lift and land commands being so far away from regular ones, and Planetary Fortress isn't used often enough to make me want to change it, so I'm only going to be changing F5-F8 to F1-F5 (if having a fifth screen-cap is possible.)

I will most likely change all my upgrade buttons to QWE for zerg. I always get confused between the melee upgrade at the evo chamber and air attack at the spire.

Also changing burrow and unborrow to R and T.

gonna change everything back to my normal WC3 hotkeys, including the placement of the hotkeys, cant stand the T G B line of hotkeys (already checked and every unit has 3 non used grid spawns or passiv ones).

I have a blackwidow keyboard so i can completely remap all my keys, and i've been experimenting with keys that i want to use. not making too many changes, but i think that a few are necessary.

Spawn larva to R. I hotkey each hotkey individually. if i do that, it's about as fast as the backspace method and it has less potential to send queens all over the map.

i'm putting zerglings on E since Z is one of the most awkward keys to press on the keyboard (which is why they put Z there)

infestation pit to F. i don't like accidentally building infestation pits instead ultralisk caverns, even though i don't go ultras that often.

hold position to D, since that's closer to my 1-4 keys than H is.

and camera hotkeys to F2, F3, and F4.

I'll probably go back to how I had my hotkeys in wc3 where I used QWER to correspond to the menu.

Q=first ability W=second, E=third, R=fourth

ASDF and ZXCV utilized for things that have multiple rows of abilities like the building menu.

Using Q for almost everything makes the game a lot easier to play I think

lol QWER would feel like playing HoN.

I think the only change I'll be making is:

Backspace --> to the tilde key.. then maybe I'll actually use the fast inject.. ^^

A great idea I saw when the PTR came out was Shift+Space for the hometown key, as opposed to tilde or w. Reason for this is you select your queens, press v to inject, hold shift and alternate between hometown and click to inject. This setup has 2 advantages:

- you normally have shift down when you're injecting anyways
- space is just below the v button, so there's no need to shift your hand

Also, I find that its very comfortable to just quickly cycle to your hatchery to see its progress on the injection cycle (if you have life bars up).

F2 - F4 will again bind locations, Immortal will be on E, and I will make +1 attack for both air and ground will be A and +1 armor for both air and ground will be G
Also, I will put Phoenix on C and Carrier on X, because when I try and go Phoenix Collossus, I always end up hitting C for both.
I also might make H be backspace aso that I won't fuck myself up when I go HEEE like Age of Empires (I moved villager from C to E so that I wouldn't mess up there, too), but I don't know what Hold Position would become. So I probably won't.
Man, do I not keep this up to date, or what?

Going to switch khaydaran amulet and immortal for sure. Not sure about anything else.

Same here.

For whatever reason they decided that they would move everything to the left side except khaydaran which is still stuck on K... T_T

Changing inject larva to F. 66F, 77F, 88F <3 Slightly better than V.

Other than that, I love my Z hotkeys. Not changing a thing.

Is it legal in a tournament/lan environment to change hotkeys using blizzards interface?

I've avoided manually MPQ editing my hotkeys out of lazyness (and tendencies to play at PC bangs) - but with the next patch allowing rebinds what are you looking forward to change? Here a few of the ones I am looking forward too:

Backspace is being moved to ` or ~
!


Definetly doing this, most of the other hot keys I'm used to already though.

Anyone know if you can swap ctrl with capslock? It'd make everything so much more ergonomic.

You can already do that. Change the hotkey setting from "standard (or whatever you have" to "Classic."
