WASD + Inverted Mouse. Mouse in right hand. But I have found when I use game controllers on games that have some kind of look on the left stick I have to have it not inverted. So, my left hand likes normal and my right hand likes inverted. I am weird, I know.
 
WASD plus normal mouse.

Played for years with Arrow keys and RMB for forward, then started to use Up arrow for forwards and then eventually switched to WASD one year ago. In my opinion it's much better using WASD, although I do have trouble reaching for Left Ctrl with my pinkie.
 
WASD 'normal' mouse, but inverted with flying objects.

I used to use the arrow keys for movement as I could not get used to the W being off centre, but after adjusting I will never go back, so much easier with all the buttons close to WASD for actions.
 
Left handed but still use WASD with mouse in left hand but use mouse right handed, ie trigger button on left. Bit odd I know.

No inverted silliness unless flying a choppa.
 
I used to be a ESDF kinda guy, but couldn't be bothered with changing my keys every time so now I just use the standard, WASD. Lazy, but I only used ESDF when I was seriously playing FPS games ten years ago and I wanted the extra keys for my macros.
 
WASD + invert mouse for me, First time I played fps with mouse was Q2 at my mates and that's how he had it set up, Just kinda got used to it lol. Been the same way every since.

First game I didn't use arrow keys on was Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast - I mapped it to TFGH so I cold surround my movement buttons with force powers :D. Now It's good ol' WASD for me, I've even got a keyboard with metal plating on those keys and the space bar.
