Only having 2 fingers on the keys at any time provides some trouble with jumpstream and fast jump patterns as well as hands and quads. Trills and running men are very easy.ĭisadvantages: The clutter effect: Your hands get in the way of each other trying to operate in such a limited space. Fast streams and tricky patterns usually aren't a problem. Index: This is one of the more common play styles where you use your two index fingers on the arrow keys (or another key setup similar to the arrow keys).Īdvantages: It gives you the "2 feet" feel as well as allowing you to have speed. Please keep in mind this is a keyboard game and most of the songs are not meant to be played on a dance pad. Only using 2 fingers (especially on 1 hand) translates to not having very much speed, and it's also extremely difficult to hit hands and quads with this style. This style involves using your index and middle finger on the arrow keys.Īdvantages: Gives you a challenge while still trying to maintain the challenges of playing with your 2 feet.ĭisadvantages: This style can be extremely tricky when attempting some patterns. One hand 2-fingers: This is a very rare play style, but some people use it to simulate your two feet dancing on a dance pad.

One hand 3-fingers: This style is generally adopted by new players and involves using your index, middle, and ring finger on the arrow keys.Īdvantages: Allows new players to get a feel for the game.ĭisadvantages: I find it rather difficult to hit speedy sections accurately using this method.
