I see a lot of my friends pressing one button the whole time and only pressing the second button when the time comes EX: Streams, and if they were to type the key inputs it would look something like this, XXXXXXXXXZXXXXXZXXXXXXZXZXZXZXXXX. But the way i use my keyboard is fairly different and I would like to know if there are other people that are good at using the method I use. I just alternate between both buttons for example in terms of input, it would be like ZXZXZXZXZX. Every time my friends see me play with this method I'm always questioned. Should I keep using this method, or would you say the "normal" way is the best way.

Note: This is my first post on these forums, sorry for the bad examples.

EDIT: Posted on general discussion without knowing and moved it here,

Play however you want to play.

There are good singletappers who alternate when needed, and there are good alternators. There are good people who do a mixture.

What do you mean? If you single tap you're going to have to alternate for streams, there's no question about that. If you alternate there's no single tapping involved.

Ahh, I see. I do this is the bpm is absurdly high and is just out of the question to singletap.

Thanks btw
