keybinds

Is it worth switching to more optimal keybinds? I started a while ago with no prior fps except fortnite and I put my weapons on my mouse buttons and some unconventional voice chat keys but ive been thinking about changing binds to help overall movement and comfort. Let me know what yall think.

yes there isnt any advantages in sticking to default ones if youre uncomfortable with them switch to whichever ones you like but try not to have overlapping ones

I use mouse buttons for weapons too, but there are some abilities like Jett dash or raze blast pack, that are easier to move when you have them on your mouse

Haha I have 2 on each side but they are binded together I use my thumb to click the mb Its a rizer vioer ultimate I just see everyone using default keys for weapons and i think maybe binding abilities to mouse might help movement when using them

Keep in mind there's also nothing stopping you from being wierd and using your right click for something else other than alt fire At some point I was using right click for jump and scroll wheel up for ult

Just try things and see what works, there's not right way to set up your binds Ex pro player mummay used arrow keys to move I forget the rest of his controls but it was wierd And he was a good duelist

For the longest time I was debating moving my keyboard to the middle and using U HJK for movement and then smaller caps for crouch and walk It sounds stupid but i had very minimal computer gaming experience And i saw fortnite players do it šŸ˜‚šŸ˜­

A what?

Wooting They have the best keyboard tech in the market rn I think like 80% of pros use them? They have socd and pcba built in their software Mouse wheel down melee, mouse button 4 and 5 for weapons and mouse wheel up jump I think that could work but there might be misclicks on scroll wheel If anyone sees this lmk what you think

your binds on the mouse might interfere with aiming or cause missclicks but if you havent had any issues and youre comfortable with it, you should be fine and also for certain abilities, you need to hold movement keys that could be hard to do if the key for your ability is in a weird spot if you want, you can experiment with different abilities and binds in the range
