I thought it might be worth posting this (Pokeblok's keyboard layout):



I switched to something similar: at SDF I have A, B, Z. The arrows keys are the same (IJKL) and C left/right are the same (UO), but I put C down at H and C up at ;. and R I put at V.

The C left/right keys are superior when you put them like that, much easier than moving your hand off the arrow keys to reach them.

I must say, I'm rather upset that you would post my keybindings here without so much as a single message.

Nevertheless, I am still happy to help with any questions / strats you need help with regarding keyboard running. I have also made a keyboard input display which can show off your own keybindings. l can help you make an overlay for it, should you choose to use it.

If this is serious, then I have lost my respect for you, and any others holding the same opinion.

People have different reasons for choosing to use a keyboard instead of a controller. Personally, I couldn't wait for getting a controller to start speedrunning, so I began using my keyboard, and now I'm used to it. I like the 'challenge'.

This is one of the very few keyboard only tricks. Different keybindings / emulators have variations on this which allow you to do it (in my case, I hold right and tap left). It's still good to know how to spin the 'proper' way though.

Playing using a keyboard is not as hard as people think. It mainly takes getting used to, with a few tricks to learn, just like everything else. I guess this is an indication that I could consider making a guide.

Please contact me if you're really serious about keyboard running and want to know more.

id like it to be known that i agree fully with sickos statement

Hey Pokeblok,

I'm sorry about that, but I don't really see what's wrong with it, could you please explain? I can remove it if you want.
