My gaming mouse is useless

Exziles·8/3/2017, 12:12:23 AM·1 votes·451 views

So I have a gaming mouse with two side buttons. Now, I had those buttons on hotkeys for items so I could activate them easier in fights without taking my fingers of my main q,w,e,r buttons. And for a while it worked, and was extremely useful to me because it was a comfortable way to activate my special items. But recently, for some reason, the game won't let me use the side buttons anymore to activate my items. Did riot put out a patch or something, because I really want to be able to use my side buttons again, because for some reason, I have a hard time pressing 1 or 2 etc to activate items such as gunblade in the middle of fight.

And as a side note, if anybody has any tips they can give to me on how they activate their items, it would be appreciated. Thanks!

Well for me I use my pinky for 1, ring finger for 2, middle finger for 3 and 4 and my index for 5 and over. If you practice for a while it becomes very easy.

What sort of mouse do you have? The Logitech one I am using still has its side buttons working fine. Maybe look for a software update, or try rebinding your keys and doing the in client full repair.
