Shroud’s keybinds are built for ease of use and speed. He has all types of shields and health hotkeys to individual buttons, which means he can access any kind of health without having to pour through menus and selection wheels. His keybinds keep him in the game, and out of the lists.

Dr. Disrespect’s keybind setup is substantially more straightforward than Shroud’s. He opts to use the health selection wheel, yet changes his melee and grenade keys. It’s safe to assume his keybinds reflect his aggressive playstyle, where he may need quick access to his fists or grenades.

Summit1g’s setup isn’t too dissimilar from Dr. Disrespect’s, but what’s interesting is that he seems to prioritize his ultimate ability. Reassigning it to a custom mouse button can prove useful for Bloodhound, Gibraltar, Bangalore, and Pathfinder. This decision can minimize awkwardness and slow response times in combat or high- stress situations.

Ninja’s keybind setup is excellent for any level of player that’s looking to improve. It’s relatively standard , and doesn’t require hours of adjustment to familiarize oneself with his setup. Since Ninja plays a wide variety of battle royales, it’s logical for him to gravitate towards a universal and easy to understand the setup. It’s mostly defaults.

Seagull’s setup is the most standard out of all the professionals on this list. He is a great example of the theory that players don’t necessarily need specific settings or alien keybinds, but dedication and good practice. Seagull’s keybinds are essentially stock, which makes for good opportunities for players to copy him.
