Do people AD + crouch spam with crouch bound to left control? I used to have it on my mouse but had to stop using mouse buttons due to thumb/wrist problems. I’m trying to do it but I can’t just get the coordination right, I keep lifting fingers I need to AD when I try to crouch.
You use your pinky to crouch.
You’ll get used to it.

I rebound crouch and melee to mouse buttons and it was a massive improvement for me. I’m sure plenty of people are comfortable pinky-spamming CTRL, but it was way too inconvenient and uncomfortable for me.
Sorry to hear about your thumb/wrist issues though, OP. If you haven’t already, I’d suggest checking out wrist stretches/exercises, and also making sure that you’re not putting undue stress on your wrist when playing in the first place, as this will only exacerbate the issue and potentially lead to things like carpal tunnel.
I just use auto crouch on c.
Crouch is Lalt for me. right next to the spacebar. my fingers can do it fast as heck

I use a mouse button to crouch.
You can try rebinding it to something else that’s more comfortable for you.
Other than that I don’t really know.
^ Same. But the OP said they had to stop using mouse buttons due to thumb/wrist problems. 
Have you tried getting a mouse with buttons on the pinky side? Not sure it’d still cause problems for you or not, but might be worth a shot?
I moved crouch to V, it makes it so much easier trust me
Please god, remove this ad crouch spam.

Pinky on L-Ctrl. Takes time to get used to.
Become left handed. Use your palm on your right hand for jump and thumb for ctrl.
just get a usb foot pedal and set it to crouch

I am using my pinky but when using it I mess up my ring and index finger for A and D. Like I either let go or keep holding them down at the same time as my pinky.
My mouse can actually switch to left and right handed by moving the buttons, but I don’t know how well I’d be able to use my pinky on it as it would still be a thumb button.
My crouch is bound to Left ALT
doesnt play pc couldn’t you set crouch to q if you wanted?.
You cam but the problem is that you typically don’t want to let go of A and D longer than nececary, but having it bound to Q would have me use my ring finger to use it.
What i actually do when using LControl for crouch is i use near the center of my palm to press it. I use a mechanical keyboard so its a little easier since the keys are raised, but the point is, i dont actually press it with a finger.
