Well there is only 3 buttons you have to press, and considering you have 4 fingers and a thumb on your left hand, it shouldn't be too hard to press them all at the same time. Maybe you just need to practise your hand-eye co-ordination.

I do it like this:

(Counting fingers from the thumb, assuming you're using your left hand)

1. Finger 3 on W (hold)
2. Finger 4 on Shift (don't hold, you keep running as long as you hold W)
3. Finger 4 on A (hold)
4. Finger 1 on Spacebar
*you gotta switch your 4th finger in less then a second btw, just takes practise.

During this i have finger 2 on D but don't know if i do this out of habit or for the positioning for the rest of my hand.

With your right hand you control the mouse obviously.

I do 3 on W, 4 on A, and 5 on shift, no problems with switching fingers then

That jump is so frickin hard (for me) :(

That reminds me of GH3, when a lot of notes come ur way i just forget what finger is for what note :)
And I end up bashing on the keyboard :lol:

Oh and I do it like this (finger 1 is the thumb and so on...) :

Finger 1 --> Spacebar
Finger 2 --> D
Finger 3 --> W
Finger 4 --> A
Finger 5 --> Shift

I don't even use AWSD, I use the arrow keys with my own combination of others keys, works much better for me :)
