    ASKL? Why?

    Been here to FFR for a month exactly today, so I'm still a newbie.

    There are probably tonnes of old threads asking this, but I don't know, so I will just ask again! O_o

    I hear many good players use ASKL as thier arrow controls, whats the reason to it? Pro's & con's?
    What arrow is A, whats S, whats K, whats L?

    *backs away being ready to have a book thrown at him* Please be kind!

    Re: ASKL? Why?

    A = Left
    S = Down
    K = Up
    L = Right

    Keymapping to make those keys hit those arrows, ordered from left to right. A good thing about this is you have you fingers on every key, so it saves energy. ASKL is just one of many setup's, personally, I play with QWOP, but it's all preference.

    Not really many cons to this, if you can get used to it, and good at it, it's easily the best playing style.

          If you need a good tip, then use two letter keys, and two buttons on either the arrow buttons or the numpad. It is very useful by Triples and quads.

          For my own, I use Z, X, 2 on numpad and 3 on numpad.

              Not really doesn't equal none, very sorry.
              Either way, right handed trills are harder.

                It's called Spread, and easily the best playing style like [TeRa] said, you should definetly start with it, don't try one handed, just keep with Spread. I'm a one hander, but after the tournament I'm going to Spread, I think I'll be using DFJK
                D = Left
                F = Down
                J = Up
                K = Right

                  Oh, and I've met people who don't know how to do this, if you really don't know how, go to settings and its under key configuration, also use your Index & Middle fingers on each hand. It takes a little while to get used to, but it's way worth it in the end.

                        Spread is dumb imo.

                          I have no problem with left handed trills, and I'm spread. =/

                          I mean, yeah. The SM Reality goes a little too fast, but my new setup is insanely awesome. =D

                          I use QWALOP

                            Vanilla Mnm, quit postwhoring. That's your seventh case of postwhoring that I've seen in the past 2 days. I'm sure other forum regulars have seen more. It's worth a one day ban already.

                            I use z x . /, but that's because I have a laptop, which doesn't provide a separate numpad on the keyboard. The main pro is that you can divide the stamina between two arms as well as have one key associated with one finger. The main con is that many people have a hard time doing things involving one hand only (such as trills).

                            According to Tass, that's double setup. Regardless of how incomplete that may seem as a double setup, double setup is defined as any setup where more than 4 keys are assigned to the 4 arrows. Regardless of how the setup is utilized as well.

                              QSLP Much more comfertable. The only negative part is the 1 handed trills. Other then that the potential speed is much higher then other play styles. I think accuracy for stream goes down a little compared to index but that isnt a problem in ffr as much as sm.
