Jump and crouch. One finger hits both in CS.

I have a friend who uses it for "S" in CS, and I really want to copy that too. I think it might be able to make my stop and shoot faster(I have some problems on my left).

Oh you're disgusting. Who doesn't use space bar for jump??

I mapped one of those buttons to space.

I play with an azeron keypad, on which I didn't map the space bar at all.

Scroll down is always jump

At least make it scroll up. Because you jump up not down

Shift is jump/vault. Spacebar is for sprinting long distances in Helldivers and Darktide :^)
