Over my time playing, I noticed too many people play with the default keybindings. To that I say....why? It's horribly unoptimized! This is a thread where you can post your own keybindings below and give reasons/thoughts on why they work well.

Edit: New Easier to read picture

I came up with this one and I give it to friends that I play with. I think that it keeps everything easily on one hand while not feeling uncomfortable. It effectively uses all the keys in the left hand region and makes use of a 5 button mouse. Before when I only had a 3 button mouse, I would bind Special 1 (Rocket/Repulse) to G, and Special 2 (Slap/Dash) to Mouse 3. Please use spoilers.

Your bindings are really interesting. I think I might steal your class config key and use V as another force power.
I think I might buy that mouse though, does it have a dpi button?

It has 3 extra buttons that can be bound to anything. One of them is by default a DPI button, it's a very good mouse imo
