Speedrunner's Guide to Typing

Video Description

Learn to type at 100 WPM in 2 weeks or less ;) This video is meant for those learning an alternative keyboard layout (Colemak, Dvorak, Grapite, Sturdy, etc.) and those learning typing for the first time. The skills presented in this video will enable you to get to 100 WPM on monkeytype.com 60s. Formal rambling aside, this is my personal method and experience. If you have your own method that works, great! Put a comment down below. I don't want to write a whole typing guide here, so I'll just say this: This method exclusively serves as a shortcut to typing fast on e200 (English 200). Whether you agree with whether that is a good way to learn, is up to your OWN discretion. I personally favor this method, but if you don't, and have your own method; that's great, post it down below. This guide is not meant to teach general typing, but I included bits here and there to help with that. Understand this before you go comment about how this isn't "real typing". Thank you c: If you have any questions, feel free to post them below. I'll try and answer literally all of them if possible.
