As a fast-paced Isida tanker, It took me quite a while to find the keyboard

configuration that works for me, so I ended up with a comboed config that

looks something like this:

 

Directional controls: left hand

A - Left ring finger to turn left

D  - left point finger to turn right

W,S - middle finger to go front or back

 

Turret controls:

< - right point finger to turn turret left

> - right middle finger to turn turret right

 

Fire control:

SPACE - left thumb finger always leaning

on it, pressing it down when needed.

 

Camera control:

Q,E although I rarely touch the camera,

sofar it hasn't benefited me much to

experiment with it.

 

With this configuration, and an Isida+Hornet tank, I can

drive, slide, turn the turret and fire all at the same time,

and that's one hell of an Isida to work against. Add the

speed booster and I can slide circles around you while

actively draining, so have fun keeping up with a slower

turret...

Great analysis of all the best combinations. I personally prefer the Q and E camera angle buttons, just because for me, they seem more practical to operate than using the pg up/down buttons.

This is how i usually play -  i use key Z and X 

                                        and the up down left right button.

 It is easy to control

I use WASD, ,./, and QE. It makes sense to use WASD and QE because they are arranged in a block of six on a QWERTY keyboard. It's exteremly easy to change the camera angle while moving.
