ESDF is the superior keybinding
Asdf is just better for general key availability imo
I never understood this for first-person shooters. You can't walk forward and backward at the same time, so I don't see why being able to press the forward and backward movement keys at the same time would be useful at all.
Top down games with 8+ directions of movement it's great, though.
It's not about being able to push both movement buttons at the same time, it's about being able to push more buttons in general. For hero shooters, mobas, MMOs, and other games with lots of inputs spreading out your reachable keys is really good.
