In the face of relentless Terminids and Automaton attacks, every advantage counts. With Stream Deck, you can call down orbital bombardments, eagle strikes, and turrets with a single tap. If you want to record those missions to share later, 4K X captures every detail in up to 4K144 with HDMI 2.1 passthrough.
This guide will focus on setting up Stream Deck for Helldivers 2: adjusting your bindings, choosing a profile, and customizing your command station with themed icons.
Setup and Stratagem profiles
Before using Stream Deck, you’ll need to adjust how Stratagems work in Helldivers 2. By default, the game requires you to hold a key to open the Stratagem list, which slows things down. Switching it to a single press ensures your Stream Deck inputs register instantly.
Adjust Helldivers 2 settings for Stream Deck
- Open Options > Mouse & Keyboard > Change Bindings.
- Find Open Stratagem List and change it from Hold to Press.
With that change, your Stratagems trigger in one tap, setting the stage for faster, more reliable inputs.
Pick a ready-to-use profile
Once your settings are set, you can load a ready-made profile to start dropping Stratagems instantly:

With one-tap Stratagems and a layout that matches your playstyle, you’ll make fewer mistakes and call support faster, so you can focus on the fight.

See you on the other side, Helldiver.
