• Rebind the control groups that are difficult for you to reach to the first row of letters under the number keys.
  For example, rebind groups 6-0 to the Q,W,E,R,T keys. See how easy you can use every control group now? However, this requires a lot of rebinding of unit skills. If you do not wish to make such a huge change, you can also just rebind 9,0 to Q,W. This won't conflict too much with other hotkeys.
  
  
• Use the Shift modifier instead of the Ctrl modifier to assign control groups.
  Ctrl is further down the keyboard, requiring a bigger stretch than the Shift key. The Shift key is also bigger, allowing you to reach for 7,8,9,0 more easily. You can use Ctrl for the 'add to control group' hotkeys, as those are less commonly used.
  

• Rebind camera locations 1-4 to F2-F5.
  This is a very easy fix as it does not require you to rebind any other hotkeys. F5 is still quite far out though, so I prefer to rebind them to F1-F4 and rebind the 'Idle Worker' hotkey elsewhere.
  
  
• Rebind camera locations 1-4 to unused letter keys.
  This requires some more rebinding, but I prefer to have the camera locations 1-4 on B,H,Y,N. This way I can just use my wrist as a pivot to hit these keys. The F-keys are quite far out and require me to lift my arm.
  

• Rebind to Grave (~)
  This is a very easy fix as it does not require you to rebind any other hotkeys. Many players make this adjustment. You could of course choose any other key that is easy for you to reach. Some players do not use this function at all and leave it unbound.
  

• Rebind to Windows key
  If you are looking to rebind this key, you could put it under the Windows button. The Windows button is easy to hit in conjunction with Ctrl in order to select all idle workers. More information on using the Windows button can be found later in the guide.
  

• Pick the same, easy-to-access hotkeys for all of your skills.
  Since you will be using your unit skills a lot, you should pick one easy-to-access hotkey for your primary skill and one for your secondary skill. Consequently, you will be using the same hotkey for Stim, Blink, Fungal, etc. The units with more than one skill will use the same secondary skill hotkeys you assign.
  This solution will remind you of the grid setup. The idea is similar, but now you can set up whichever hotkey you want for each individual skill.
  

• Rebind Patrol and Hold Position to Tab and CapsLock.
  This may require some rebinding of other hotkeys, but Tab and CapsLock are easy to press in combination with the Shift key. It also makes sense to have all the basic unit commands next to each other (Tab for Patrol, CapsLock for Hold position, A for attack, S for stop).
  
• Rebind Patrol to Q
  Many people seem to do this as it doesn't require you to rebind other hotkeys. It is an easy fix to the default P-hotkey far out on the keyboard.
  

• Rebind 'B','V' to 'V','F'.
  'B' is quite a stretch for one of the most used hotkeys. I prefer to bind it to 'V'. I then rebind the 'V' (advanced structure) to 'F'.
  
• Use the same hotkey for similar structures across races.
  This might be useful for people playing multiple races. I use the same hotkey for supply depots, pylons, and overlords. Same for assimilators/extractors/refineries, forge/ebay/evo chamber, etc. This allows you to store these actions in your muscle memory for all races, while playing only one race.
  

• Rebind all upgrades to 'A','S','D','F' (Grid-style)
  You can pick other hotkeys ofcourse, but having a grid style hotkey system for upgrade structures is quite nice. You will not have to remember the hotkey for each upgrade, and you can pick easy-to-access hotkeys for them.
  

• Rebind all units to 'A','S','D','F' (Grid-style)
  Same story as upgrades. You can pick other hotkeys ofcourse, but having a grid style hotkey system for unit training structures is quite nice. You will not have to remember the hotkey for each unit, and you can pick easy-to-access hotkeys for them.
  If structures have more than four possible units, these units can be bound to the row of letters under ASDF, 'Z','X','C','V'. These hotkeys may be less desirable though, as they require you to bend your fingers to press them.
  

• Rebind to Grave (~).
  Not many people will be comfortable with this, as the 'Esc' button is pretty much ingrained in everyones brain. However, the Grave key is in the same corner as Esc, just a little closer, and therefore requires less hand movement to hit.
  

• Rebind to 'G'
  Easy fix, but might require you to rebind some hotkeys. Alternatively you might want to rebind it to another easy-to-access key that does not require you to rebind other keys.
  

• Rebind the 'X' to 'C', and the 'C' for Reactor to 'V'.
  Again, quite an easy fix. Moves the hotkeys for the addons one key to the right, enabling you hit both of them with your index finger.
  

• There is no easy way to go about this. Use your easiest to access keys for snipe and EMP. Cloak and decloak will be the same as your banshee. Improvise for the other hotkeys.
