Hey everyone. I've been playing osu! for almost 11 months now and this is my first post q: and I dont check the forums too often so im sorry because im sure this has been talked about a lot.

I'm getting a tablet in a couple days (for osu! and drawing) and I've always played with left mouse button and z/x for streams. Since im getting a tablet I am trying to learn to use z/x for everything. I am having trouble. I feel comfortable alternating z/x for everything (since I used mouse and only used z/x previously for streaming, alternating them comes most naturally to me), are there any serious complications or draw backs from doing this? Also my avg % for songs is about 10% less than what it usually is when I use mouse. That will just get better the more I practice right? Also are there any tips for learning to use z/x faster or is my only option practice practice and more practice? Lastly is there any way to "click" with the tablet like I do my mouse? Like can I press the button on it and use it like I used my mouse and is that even really viable? Thanks for any advise anyone can give me, especially people who have gone through this (:

Clicking with tablet isn't really viable, so just stick with z/x. Alternating z/x for everything compared to just single-tapping z or x (unless its a stream) lets you tap much faster than single tapping, but is generally less accurate. You could stick to alternating if you want, but I wouldn't recommend it. Practice is really the only way to get faster at streaming. If you want, you can open a notepad document and practice streaming in that when you're watching videos, that helped me a lot when I was a terrible streamer.

I was a mouse player till half a year ago myself and it took me 2 weeks to get used to kb. Everyone's differernt, some find it easy to switch over while others may need more time. It's important to just relax and play, giving your brain time to switch over instead of rushing.

Next time post your game play related questions in the Gameplay & Rankings forum. You may also find some thread of interest there to help you improve.

You have to force yourself to do it, hit f10 to turn off mouse keys and grind, you will end up being faster and more accurate, dw mate

Got used to it after a few days.

I prefer z/c because I keep mushing both buttons if I do z/x instead. It's up to you though. You should get used to it after few days or so.

I did read some of your ''question'' (i hope i understood right)

A tip: If you aren't good with z/x then use some combination u are good with. For example y/x , a/s
or like me n/m :D

I don't think switching from one pair of adjacent keys to another would make any difference.
