I can't fully understand it, but even after owning multiple mechanical keyboards which include:

- das keyboard ultimate s
- blackwidow ultimate
- 6gv2
- filco tenkeyless brown
- meka g1
- qsenn dt 35

I feel that the marauder is the most comfortable and the quickest for me to play on. I don't know why I feel comfortable with using a non mechanical keyboard after using a lot of them..

A lot of people give the keyboard shit and mock it (although I agree 100 or so dollars for non mech sucks), it is really comfortable and I haven't seen my fingers move this quickly in a long time.

I can't tell if mechanical keyboards have a further push point to go down, I know the perks of them is that you are able to "verify" the key press, but even this marauder has a certain bump to it when you press a key (I always bototm out).

So yeah idk, random blog about a random unappreciated keyboard.

Also food for thought: Why do most Korean pros use non mechanical keyboards? (besides the fact that they are easily replaceable)


TLDR: idk man.

Yup, I enjoy rubber dome alot more, even my old HP crapboard feels better than MX blue switches. I just feel like my hand movements are ALOT more smooth and fluid on these keyboards, which is why I use a dt-35 now ^^.

I do like mechanicals for regular typing, feels nice, but def not for gaming.

Its kind of how I feel about my WASD, its my first keyboard, I don't think I will ever have anything like it again, I will end up trying the Q-senn and some others, but god do I love the WASD.

my only problem with the maruader which I love btw is that it's to small I would have liked it if the right side would be longer to fit arrow keys better. Though I will agree it feels pretty good.

I'm using a meka g1, it felt natural right out of the box for me, black switches.

That totally depends on the switches you're using. Blue switches have this bump, whereas linear switches (black/red) don't. I am currently using a mechanical keyboard and I love it. But you're right, it sometimes feels really good typing on a rubber dome keyboard.

Haven't tried the marauder, it's a little hard to get in Norway and I don't feel like ordering an expensive product i'm not even sure about over the internet.

Using a DT-35 atm, though, and if it's anything like that then it's probably really good.

OK so my filco majestouch 2 with blues came in just now.

It feels EXTREMELY different than my DAS...

I can't tell yet if it's good or bad but it makes a lot less click noise (its comparable to the noise of browns) and it feels really different.

Wtf I thought Filco was supposed to reign supreme at this shit.

EDIT: not to mention that it came in shitty packaging.

It almost feels like I need to break in the switches as if it were a black switch board.
