I use default keys.

- I realise that's not best for reps, but I can't change now.

- Only weird thing I do is warp with my pinky on KP_INS, then use numlock to prevent warping - e.g. when port runs out

Only problem is when you try to begin a sentence with "and", which gets cut off to "nd" as you attach back to your terr

Everything else is default. The reason for using one key rep is because... If you use shift control, you automatically expend energy whenever you're moving in any direction.

This leaves you at a disadvantage because a) You're less likely to get 3 reps off, because you die early b) It forces you to rep faster to protect yourself since your energy is quickly depleted and c) You're less likely to get good bombs off when you eat up your energy.

I think some ppl use a diff attach key. Like acidbomber seems pretty legit with attaching while under when bursts are coming. Probably has a preset attach key .
