Edit I hope people realize this is nothing but a joke. I don't think I have ever put an item on 7 before...

Piano player here, will confirm that it physically feels about the same, however psychologically it's a lot more stressful because in my Piano song if I miss one note I can keep playing, but when I miss that one Zhonya's active at 30 minutes into the game.... I'm still waiting to respawn to keep playing.....

Ever tried fucking up on the piano when a lot of people are looking at you? I have. I panicked and everything went to shit. I've missed plenty of Zhonya's actives, they aren't nearly as stressful.

I've only given 3 public pseudo-performances on piano (4 if you include 2nd grade talent show before I even really started to learn piano), none of them in concert halls or anything like that just a couple of pianos that you find at hotels/etc... after asking if it was okay. At one mom and pop type hotel/motel I screwed up on the very first signature roll of Turkish March (accidentally offset by one key). I got back into rhythm after slowing my tempo by ~5-10 beats for a few seconds, then played the rest of Turkish March without issue. Nobody besides my anal parents (who rushed up to the piano and practically forced me down right after the song) thought too much of it, and I got quite a few compliments and felt very good about myself afterwards :P Meanwhile in League; I messed up my Zhonya's active (I rebound it to the X key LOL) after my second Vladimir rotation a month ago, I instantly got flamed out by the whole team, and I became an alcoholic drowning my sorrows afterwards (kidding about the alcoholic part)

So maybe professional pianists at legit concert halls would feel way more stressed out by missing a few notes, but to the hobbyist like me missing an item active is definitely more stressful.

Well, the 2nd grade talent show was probably the closest to what I've experienced >.>

I'm a really shy guy, I only volunteered for the 2nd grade talent show and this one time I was trying to impress a girl that was playing at prom night (spoilers: she thought I sucked but danced with me anyways :D). The other 2 I got pressured into doing. Honestly, I prefer playing just to play. Feeling the music come to life and being able to change how things sound whenever you want to is the best part about learning piano.

Hahahha as someone who struggles heavily with number 6 (and i have to press it twice due to it being RIghteous Glory) i totally feel this.

Here's your upvote.

That's why I rebind my trinket to T and shift over item slots 5-7

SSJTribeMar 8, 20161 votes

but 4 is closer than T?

kDrakariMar 8, 20161 votes

4 is the same distance, both of them are adjacent to the QWER resting row. The point was to get other item slots closer since I now have 5 item slots AND my trinket on keys adjacent to where my hand normally rests.

I always put boots on 7, problem solved

I just use a mouse for slots 5, 6, 7

[zombie-brand-facepalm] Why would you ever have an active on 6 or 7? I have never seen a build with that many active items. You do realize you can swap them over right? And you have enough time as you auto path out of the base to fix it...
