That’s interesting. What is your advantage moving the numpad?
I could kind of understand if it’s a left handed thing, though I’m left handed and have always used right handed peripherals. Maybe I got beaten into the right handed world at a young age and never thought there was another option.
I wonder if my K:D ratio on CS:GO would improve if I assumed with my left hand…
When you let go of the keyboard to get your mouse with a full, you have to go over to the numpad, even though you don’t use it very often. It puts your right hand in a position that’s not very natural, at least to me.
I should say, I’d rather have both the numpad and arrow key column on the left. I’m right handed. One benefit would is less travel anytime you need to move your hand from your mouse to keyboard and back, as well as those relative distances promoting slightly more even/ergonomic arm positioning.
The other benefit is that I might actually be inclined to use the numpad for games instead of wasd, which would free up the rest of the keyboard for more shortcuts.

It gets your mouse closer to the actual keyboard.
