Keyboard US VS EU Layout.

[Zalkard]

Would there be any advantage using the US layout over the EU layout in games like Counter-Strike? Is there a superior layout?
Thanks.

EU keyboards have one key more (102 vs 101 keys). Do you think you can put that extra key into use?

Did not actually know it had an extra key. What key is it?

It is usually sandwiched between the left shift and Z (on UK layout).

Oh yeah now I see, never actually noticed it was there lol. It's just the same as the one on the right side, next to enter. Would I benefit from the extra long left shift?
