The Best Keybinds for Apex Legends

Apex Legends is the new Battle Royale on the block. Big streamers like Shroud, Ninja, and Summit1g have all been streaming the game intensely lately. We have previously written about the best settings for Apex Legends, but in this guide, we will focus on the best keybindings for the game.

If you missed our previous articles, here is an overview:

Keybinds is an important part of your gameplay, it is literally what you play the game with (funny enough). Taking some time in researching for the best keybinds can be a good investment in the long run. It is worth noticing that the best keybinds are often personal preference. However, sometimes professional players share some traits in their settings and keybinds, and it can be a good inspiration when you are tweaking on your own settings.

The focus in this guide will be on exploring what some of the best players and biggest streamers are currently using. So let’s get started.
