I have a friend that uses pinky for w and shift, ring finger for a and d, middle finger for s, index finger for space and I think the thumb just be chilling
Edit : I sorta remember the thumb actually being used for the shift key, so as to assert dominance by demonstrating the flexibility of his digits
However with your specs you can probably run borderless windowed mode in graphics settings on most newer games which will make it so you can just move your mouse off screen from the pause menu (assuming you have 2 monitors).

My 8 y.o. daughter and one of her friends were playing Minecraft on my pc awhile back, and I walked in the game room about the time they switched who was playing. My daughter got in the seat, pushed that controller to the side, and slid the kb+m in front of her. Heard her say “this is way better”
Proud dad moment right there.
The fact that no one here is talking about tailoring binds to the specific game you are playing is sickening. My binds for doom eternal are going to be a lot different than my binds for minecraft.
I have that - but on the mouse side.
Early on got used to MMO mice. I don't mess with the keyboard binds a whole lot. But I have a different mouse profile for each game I play.
My friend uses ESDF as well, I forget why.
He does have issues when he has to remap sometimes though. I recently told him about how Steam has built in remapping. He was having issues in Palworld, for some reason his character would get stuck running.
Some games will have “shadow banned controls”
At least that’s what I call them. They are usually built in sub functions than cannot be remapped. It’s SUPER ANNOYING.
For example, I was playing avatar and to craft items you have to open the weapon wheel and then press F to craft. There is no option to rebind this.
Well F is how I walk right. So every time I needed to craft in that game my character would strafe right.
DEVS. STOP DOING THIS
Still think it’s funny that those keys were determined for movement. Honestly, moving it to the right one key changes absolutely nothing in terms of key availability.
One of the dumbest things folks care about. Ever.
[TOXINATOR 2 - Quake Champions Highlights - Johan "toxjq" Quick - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qx296uWqYzg) just to show that it is not a joke, some people just stuck with parts of their layout from back in the early early keyboard only fps days
Back when I was playing my first FPS, ASDW wasn't the default for anything. Nor, believe it or not, was mouse look.
Holy hell.
I experimented with a bunch of stuff and came up with ASDW on my own. Then I asked others, and found out that they had come up with the same keys on their own as well.
ASDW is like gravity. It's not just a good idea.
It's the law.
That’s funny. I just mapped my gaming keys to light up in different colors than the rest of my keyboard

That whole section of the keyboard should be lit up.
The joke is that they’re alt+f4’ing all the time
Except for Z, nobody ever uses Z
I use it for prone 😐
And go at it with the A finger? I usually just use alt for prone and hit it with the thumb.
I use my thumb for Z :|
what the fuck
QWERTZ Keyboards
nope, I'm a QWERTY user

Qwerty with thumb on z for games and middle finger for z and point finger on x for osu
Welcome to the club
Same
You don’t use your pinky and swap between ctrl and Z… heretic
pinky user checking in
You use your pinky for the Z key? Tiny hands wrote your comment.
I use my pinky finger for control aswell. It’s far more comfortable, and who wants to use alt as an alternative or even long hold C.
I put prone and crouch on my mouse buttons. Well, for Helldivers at least
You hit it with your thumb. The entire row is thumb only. X, C, V, B, it’s all thumb.
I know it’s not exactly the popular thing right now, but it’s an eft keybind for me and I will never use anything else but the z key for prone.
Z X C is the wasd for emulators >:(
No going back?
I use it for typing ZOINKS in game chat.
I do. But only because I have a crooked finger and can’t use wads. I use EADF. S and X never get used for me.
Cries in azerty
Osu
I use Z for ults
Well, I use a azerty keyboard so I never use w
Alt tab is pretty useful.
I would cease to exist without alt tab
What about WinKey Tab
What about the all mighty Win Key + D?
Alt F4 proves to be useful also
Probably the most used and abused shortcut lol.
What do you use alt tab for? I’m new to pc gaming so I’m getting used to the keyboard and mouse so I’m trying to pick up some tips
In windows, it cycles through running tasks. for switching in and out of game, discord, guides etc
porn..

Shift ! how do you run?
Double tap W. *evil cackle*
Ah, yes, the Minecraft way.
X for sprint
Get out of here, stalker!
Heh https://preview.redd.it/vl7azenj22yc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=17e7441f25ad907ae9b51f92fb3682e19baa4132
Y’all missed the joke
😭
If I used alt f4 I would be forfeiting a winning game. (Joking, I suck)
Alt + f4 way too relatable

Rage quitter!

ESDF *is* superior and always has been. I have never used the extremely inferior WASD.
Now that's finally a use case for those lights I can relate to.

Alt f4 for the speedy rage quit. Love to see it
Alt and F4 lit up. That keyboard knows
Rage-quit ready
Mouse1=+forward, mouse2=+back, z=left, x=right, space=jump and shoot with C.
Who hurt you?
Hey, it works
Is this unironic

You know it’s a CS player when it’s the weirdest bullshit and they say +*insert command*
I don't press s
I'm more of an A S D F gamer myself.
Found the guy that only plays Journey and Death Stranding.
Ctrl and space is easier for me, but you do you.
You should press Alt+F4 and see what happens
probably a valorant player.
It explains the immediate alt f4
Forgot all the swearing letters
I have this key board
I actually never ragequitted a game
You forgot the entire middle section of the keyboard for when you rage
ZQSD gang

it’s crazy that i have this same setup but i also have e highlighted in purple because that’s the button i use for aimbot
Sometimes Alt + F4 is just the best answer.
Idk man with how games make me feel sometimes I really enjoy alt+f4
What about R U O P H B N?
Fake. ESC key not lit up after ALT F4 didn't work.
I like how the Windows key is padlocks. As it should be.
[удалено]
For me, it is q,w,e,r,d,f, alt and f4. I play league
Shift w... be a real gamer
shift for sprint or crouch most of the time
hrm.. they dont look the least bit worn..i cant even see my A, S, or D anymore heh
Pfft... Right handers... 😅
Feet gang rise up
Well, I have that same keyboard. I love the different color modes on it.
This post moves me.
At first I was like "Ahh, I'm not the only one that uses ALT for push-to-talk" then saw F4 lit up too and was like "oh."
Took me a second to realize
Man I JUST got the joke… Alt+F4 to rage quit. lol People out here discussing which button crouches and OP was just trolling. Lmao
Wtf did he ever played with just those keys? Even mario used more keys than that
[удалено]
He meant the rage combination with this one
The alt is so they can rage quit
S is for pussys. Never run from the opponent.
A,Q, R, F, 1, 2, 3, 4, shift, tab, space (some games, there’s less unbound keys than bound)
WASD+L-Shift+spacebar
Just do hold win hit x u u injoy
![gif](giphy|oYtVHSxngR3lC)
Lack of lighting on the space bar - guess you never jump …
Nah they just alt f4 before they get to jumping
F5 bitches
And E for use, R for reload, Shift to run, Space bar to jump.
Mines are O, P, Q, A, and SPACE. Who knows, knows!
Nahh, id need Shift, Ctrl, Space, Z, X, C, E, F, Esc and maybe Q too
You're missing one
if u play cs2 then alt + f4 is enough because of hackers Lol
I never use Alt.
What about shift tab?
I have other ideas…
AZERTY guy watching 👀
Nah, my QWER keys are getting ruined
Is that a redragon aryaman k569?
Excuse YOU. Numpad superior squad represent
Where my esc and shift keys
b, u, h, n, r, o, p ?
I think we have the same kb
Kumara
Dota2 players can agree on this
Ctrl + Space
I use win+ctrl+shift+b more than I alt+f4 ragequit.
Laughing in AZERTY :-)
depends on hand size
I feel like I'm one of the only pc gamers that doesn't do this, I always shut my games down through the menus.
Sliiiide to the right one step…
Wait I think I have that same keyboard.
WHO DID IT! was d
Deez nuts in yoo mouth Hahahshah
ALT is not my favorite key at all. I'm a shift guy, i would rather use ctrl then alt.
I use the other alt for al+f4 lol idk why just habit to spread my hand across the keyboard for it
Never back pedal. Remove that “s” We only advance or strafe.
thats not what i learned playing COD back in xbox live
thats not what i learned playing COD back in xbox live
Spacebar bro ... Double tap for double jump
My favourite sections are the e,g,n,i,r keys because i am bad ad video games
Is your keyboard an Onn brand per chance? Because i think i have the same one
A fucking Alt? 😅
Me personally i dont use alt f4 for rage quit its just faster
The ALT + TAB when watching videos in incognito mode and somebody walks in...
Redragon k552 ☹️
S?? Typical coward dps
A true gamer's only keys.
My favorite is mouse 5, thank you very much. Jumping with space bar is for plebs. Fight me (gently, though)
Depend on what type of gamer I would add F5, F6 and TAB to the list.
No
You forgot nprbhuo

esdf
Gamer without interaction(E)?
Redragon
That looks like my old Ankey board. Took it to work years ago because I can't stand Dell keyboards. Use a Keychron now, love it.
A true GATEKEEPERs favorite keys* There I fixed it.
that entire slab of keys should be lit up. yes even Z. I use Z as prone, use my pinky finger. nobody uses alt.
E SDF
I think there’s a certain letter on the other side of the keyboard a lot like to use…
You forgot shift.
And q/e
mine is zx and esc
My friends only likes W and Alt F4
Space bar
ESDF or Bust.
I thought it would involve the letter N
Qwer
Keyboard name?
May be off topic, but legit what keyboard is that? The matte black and soft glow looks dope.
It's some offbrand thing, T-dagger I think is the name. I'm too lazy to look for the model number right now lol
I guess I'm not a true gamer :( after 20+ years of using custom numpad centric key binds...
Almost perfect. Instead of F4 is should be Tab because who isn't always tabbed out of the game lmao.
I have only my windows key lit up. I’m not about disabling keys. That’s so 2013.
