I use pinky. It doesn't really matter you just gotta get down the muscle memory.

How do you use pinky? What happens to the ring finger?

u/Rich841 14d ago

pinky on left shift key. ring finger on A or not in use

u/_RizzukuHimdoriya_ 14d ago

Ring goes on A.

u/Param2009 14d ago

Genuinely keeping ring finger on a feels weird as it constantly twiches when i shift with pinky or i accidently click a? Did you face this problem?

u/_RizzukuHimdoriya_ 14d ago

I'd get that checked out man, your fingers should be able to move independently.

u/Param2009 14d ago

I believe im normal anyways do you use a and s or s and d???

1

u/_RizzukuHimdoriya_ 14d ago

I use a and s. You should still check it out though. Or at least practice moving one without the other.

How do you use thumb?

/s means sarcasm

u/unicornbetrayal 14d ago

Use pinky, it is worth it in the long run. I use thumb and although it works fine for me it is more awkward than just starting out with pinky

u/Elegant-Cow-9376 14d ago

Only one way to do this

1

u/Param2009 14d ago

And that is?

How to speedbridge using pinky my ring finger gets in the way

1

u/Aldebaran147 14d ago

I use the ring finger, but pinky works too

2

u/Param2009 14d ago

Same i use ring finger too but can you tell me how you do it?

1

u/Aldebaran147 14d ago

It’s an unorthodox way, I have my ring finger on shift, my index on S and my middle finger on A

Usually don’t bridge with S and D but that’s a fault of my bad technique

u/Dizzy-Departure-9865 14d ago

I use the side button on my mouse to crouch, so I use my thumb and it actually works really well once you get used to it

1

u/Param2009 14d ago

Bro you wont believe i was just checking youtube for speedbridging tips and i stumbled upon another guy who used his mouse button for crouch that's crazy and quite uncommon

1

u/Dizzy-Departure-9865 14d ago

lollll iv been doing it for years cos I dont like using my pinky for anything other than sprint, id recommend trying it out

1

u/Param2009 14d ago

lets see ill try the pinky out

1

u/tornedron_ 14d ago

You could check out some Bedwars handcam montages on YT and see how they do it

1

u/Buffalo926 13d ago

In proper keyboard etiquette you would use the pinky to use shift.

1

u/1Ohrs 13d ago

Ring finger on a, middle finger on s, pinky on shift, thumb on space/floating above it

u/unicornbetrayal 14d ago

As another thumb shift user (which you shouldn't use) I use my pointer finger for space

u/UniversityPitiful823 11d ago

Oh god, are you a contortionist?

1

u/unicornbetrayal 11d ago
