Why do notable osu! players bend their pinky fingers inward toward their wrist? Here's a screenshot of what I mean: http://puu.sh/5ycIx.jpg
Does it help at all?

so you saw one guy do it and you thought everybody did? everybody has their own way of holding their hand, and whatever someone else does does not necessarily make you better.

I've seen a number of good osu players doing this and I'm curious to why they do it...

It probably feels comfortable for them. There really is no other reason.Evolvation wrote:

all you need to know is that bending your pinky isn't necessary to be good at pressing buttons

Instead of bending it, I keep my pinky straight and kinda spread it away from the rest of the hand
I suppose it looks pretty stupid but I'm accustomed to it and even when trying cannot get rid of this, it makes my hand posture more stable or something

you really have to just relax your hand and focus on hitting the keys quickly and correctly. If you think about the way your hand is it's going to mess you up. You'll naturally do stuff.

I think you should just play the game and stop worrying about every little thing.
It really does not help to know everything when you only just started the game, because you won't know if it works later since you're applying it to a noob set of skills now.

ITT: Post your pinky
Man my hand just relaxed on the keyboard like if I'm playing an fps on wasd.

I bend my pinky too as shown in the Picture.
Why I do it? Dunno. Its quite confortable like this for me, i've tried different positions aswell but this is the only one which works for me.
Btw; After a longer time of playing (~6h a day) it really starts to hurt for days, at least for me.

My pinky is in the position as if I was resting my hand on my keyboard.
It really is only preference, some people don't even notice unless you ask/tell them

Please tell me I'm not the only one that thought of bending from Avatar:TLA when seeing the title.
Please.
OP: They do it because that's comfortable to them, it's not better or worse than other methods you might see people use.

I do that too. I've tried playing the game with my pinky straight but no I just can't play. I think it has to do with the strain I apply on my muscles that I use to tap zx which also pulls the muscle at my pinky causing it to bend. It kinda makes everything easier for me but after a few hours my pinky gets pretty strained

Reimu lifts up his pinky, although he lifts up his ring finger higher.Pettanko wrote:
