Anyone here who's had to struggle through transition from Controller to KB&M?

I'm adept at using kb&m for day to day stuff and years ago played FPS on it.
On MOBAs I'm a bot trying to weave in abilities and AA cancel w/ movement.
Practicing on Coop Easy Bot and I get like 2k lol

I dont understand how ppl use WASD for move and 1 to 4 for abilities.

Ex: when I try to use "2" I gotta stop moving, especially if it's diagonal movement using WA or WD (like w/ Achilles juke, I can't seem to do efficiently)

Gonna try remapping to EASD for movement and QWRT for abiltiies.

The first times I played on PC I kinda sucked a bit too, but honestly, if you play a lot, you get used to it. I just remapped tha level up skills buttons (shift + the skill) and the store items to P so it is the same as lol

my problem is using abilties w/out affecting my movement. Like I find myself picking up my finger to make way for some buttons.

everything else i'm slowly getting accustomed to.

I don't know if this would work with console, but this is what I use on PC and it solves that exact problem.



Actually, I forgot, I'm currently using this one:



I use the thumb directional pad for movement. You can only go one direction at any time, right? Use one digit to move, then.

I use the finger buttons for ability use, ability leveling, opening the store, recalling to base, and relics.

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
