Short answer

Don't replace the board. Add Snapmove, a free package for the Rebind app on Windows and macOS. It runs on your computer, so your switches, keymap, and firmware stay exactly as you set them. W, A, S, D only.

    Our pick

    Snapmove in Rebind

    Best if you want the board left exactly as it is

    Price
    Free
    Needs
    Rebind 3.5.0 or newer
    Runs on
    Windows, macOS

    Hold A, press D, and D wins. Release D while A is still held and A comes back. W and S work the same way. The old key stays down 15 to 25 ms by default, so the change of direction feels like a quick key change instead of an instant cut. You can adjust that in Snapmove's options, down to no overlap. F11 turns it on and off.

    SOCD in Rebind on a standard keyboard. Recorded on a private server against bots.

    AutoHotkey script

    Best if you are on Windows and like writing your own tools

    Price

    • Any rule and any keys you script

    What's not

  4. 4

    A keyboard with it built in

    Best if you wanted a second board anyway

    Wooting 60HE
    $175

    The Wooting 60HE ($175), a hall-effect board, has Snappy Tappy for last key wins and Rappy Snappy, where the deeper press wins. Razer calls last key wins Snap Tap and ships it on the Huntsman V3 Pro line.

    A Wooting 60HE keyboard on a desk

    What's good

    • Built in, no app
    • Wooting adds a depth-based mode

    What's not

How we picked

We make Snapmove, so weigh our #1 with that in mind. This list is for people keeping the board they have, so that came first: We left off reWASD: it is a paid subscription aimed at controllers. On a QMK board both keep it; QMK ranks above AutoHotkey because it also works on macOS.

Check the rules first

CS2 dialog reading Kicked for input automation
The dialog CS2 shows for input automation.

Valve kicks snap-tap-style input from official CS2 matchmaking since August 2024, so turn Snapmove off with F11 before you queue official matchmaking. A firmware rule needs its toggle off too. The VCT ruleset permits Snap Tap and SOCD in Valorant unless league officials say otherwise. Fighting-game tournament rulesets require neutral resolution on button controllers, and Snapmove is not neutral.

FAQ

Does Snapmove change my keyboard's firmware?

No. It runs in the Rebind app on your computer. Nothing is written to the board.

Can Snapmove do neutral instead?

No. Neutral, where left and right cancel to nothing, is a separate short Luau script in Rebind.

How do I use it in a game that is not on the list?

Add the game under "Window/Process Targets" in Snapmove's options.

Same board. Last key wins. Free.
