Control buttons can always be reassigned. For example, I used to open the NVIDIA panel by pressing Alt+X, but I reassigned it to Alt+R as the rarest key combination, since Alt+X was also used in some game. But in this game I encountered this combination and simply reassigned the Alt button to an additional control button on the mouse - very convenient if you need to throw something on the run, for example.
