Unlocked or Locked Camera? 3 or 4 Fingers? Flash on D or F?

I play unlocked and click spacebar when I need too. My friend that is new to league says he plays with a locked camera because it is easier to learn that way. What do you guys play with because I kinda want to know what everyone else uses.

I play with 4 Fingers simply cause my hands are small, Im 14. My cousins play with 3 fingers although their hands aren't much bigger. What do you guys use. Does this affect gameplay?

I play with my flash on F. My friend says "It registers faster on D." So is it better to have flash on F or D?

Flash on D - this is just how I started so it will never change

I use locked and have lock/unlock screen on space to unlock it at times I need to see more.

Pinky on shift, ring finger on Q, middle finger for both W and E, and index finger for R - This is just a habit I picked up from playing Diablo. Shift is force stand still which you have to use a lot when playing ARPG games. I still use Shift quite often for attack move in LoL.

3 fingers, flash on F here.

Unlocked camera.

4 fingers, and because my pinkie finger is very short I use A instead of Q (and Q instead of 1).

Flash on D, because when I started I was scared I would hit it accidentally if it was on F.

Unlocked camera, think locked would actually be a disadvantage. Most people do play locked early on as it's one less thing to think about, but switching to unlocked is something I feel is worth learning.

Sortof 3 fingers if you mean how many fingers are resting on (QWER), but really I'm using all 4 fingers+thumb, with pinky hitting tab/shift/ctrl and thumb for alt/space. Think there are situational advantages to 4 finger approaches if you need to combo stuff really fast together, but also probably advantages to the 3 finger approach I mentioned, so on average probably not a big deal. Still, if one was 100% maining something, there might be a better choice based on the specific champion.

I have flash on D and whatever on F, but I feel this is strictly personal preference and not something that offers any advantages one way or another.

QWER

I use the F keys to check my and my allies' positions.

Flash on F.

So the F placement for me is part of me historically playing simple characters. Typically the more right clicky ones.

My hand is typically over ASER only using Q and W when they're relevant. Otherwise using A for attack-move and S for stop. F is less likely to be fat fingered than D which is why it's on F.

Now, had I learned the game on a flash-ult reliant character like Annie , it would make sense for flash to be on D because D then R is easier than F then R.

My name should indicate locked/unlocked... But it's unlocked.

3 or 4 fingers though? People play with only 3?

Five fingers. (thumb for v and space and b) flash on d. (altho f is for flash)
