I mean it’s 2020, I don’t want to be pressing F B V G H T etc. to cast spells. Every hero skills should be bound to QWER.

I always thought ZXCV was better, like in footies.

But then I play UD which is mainly C N C N C N bottom row constantly.

Well WC3 has moba elements with the entire hero system but it’s been updated since Dota 2 and LoL and even Heroes of the Storm using QWER. The reason is because it’s much more ergonomical and easier to remember than some random hotkey on the other side of the keyboard. The fact that the remaster of WC3 hasn’t updated this to the new system makes it look less like a remaster and more of a lazy cash grab with updated textures.

I like the SC2 style where you can make a grid hotkeys, but you can choose all the hotkeys for all button positions. Was that really so hard to implement for Warcraft 3 as well?

Take for instance the night elf ability to turn invisible at night is bound to the i key. How is anyone supposed to reach the i key with their left hand during crucial moments of battle? This outdated binding is so obnoxious at least let us set our own bindings.

Just a skill

Back in the day we used warkeys (a downloaded program) to do that.

Pretty much should've been implemented into a remaster since warkeys was so popular, even starcraft2 has the option to edit your keys. It just shows how little effort was invested if that is still not in the game.

Do warkeys still work? I thought Blizzard protected the .exe from being modified in anyway by external programs.
