The only way to make a multiline cursor in Sublime text 3 is Ctrl+Shift+RC+Drag. Is there any way to do this without using a mouse?

While you can place multiple text cursors in Sublime Text with Cmd–Click (Mac) or Ctrl–Click (Windows), here's another technique that comes in handy. Hold Ctrl–Shift (Mac) or Ctrl–Alt (Windows) and hit Up or Down Arrow to place an additional text cursor above or below the current cursor.
To add multiple cursors at any text position This is done by using Ctrl + Click . Firstly you have to enable Multiple-Cursor Modifier. Simply type this option on Command Palette by Ctrl + Shift + P to enable it. To remove a cursor form multiple text position.
To select multiple regions using the keyboard, select a block of text, then press Ctrl+Shift+L to split it into one selection per line.
Yes, there is. Using Shift↓ or Shift↑, select the lines you want multiple cursors on. Next, hit CtrlShiftL (CommandShiftL on macOS) to split the selection into lines. Finally, hitting ← will put the cursors at the beginning of the lines, while → will put them at the end.
Edit
There is also another, quicker way (thanks to minitech) - CtrlAlt↑/↓ will create multiple cursors without having to do selections first, and you can place the cursors anywhere in the line you wish. However, on Windows these key combos may be mapped to changing the screen orientation. To change this, hit CtrlAltF12 to open the Intel control panel, click Options, and either remap the screen orientation hotkeys, or click Off on the left side to disable all of them.
