Isn't the Samsung DT-35 a Korean keyboard that is easy to type in Korean or has Korean keys?

DET-35 is a fairly cheap keyboard, but it has the english characters underneath the korean ones (hangul), so it probably makes it easier to learn the sc (match the characters for the hotkeys). After they get good, they probably don't bother to change, becuase the keyboard is fairly cheap.

Yo does anybody know where you can buy an optical mini from? I use the G3, which I'm perfectly comfortable with. However, my original plans were to buy a mini but I found the G3 first.

dt35 is pretty rare. I have only seen 1 website that sells it and it was rather expensive.

DT35
60$ for a simple keyboard.

dt35 is just a generic keyboard, nothing special to it.
The only difference if any that I've noticed is that the keys are slightly closer together than western keyboards usually are, which would help pple with smaller hands (a category which asians would most likely fit into)

The keys aren't even that soft and I'm pretty sure you can find many keyboards that require less force than the DT35. One thing though to note is that its keystrokes are damn quiet.


Best way to get one is to ask a korean friend when he goes back home. They cost like $15 so give him like $20-25 for his troubles.

for those of you searching for DT35's to buy.

They are labeled under the "QSenn" brand, not Samsung now.

Yea someone had one of the So Cal lans last year and I touched it a little and the keys feel perfect and are soundless. They did seem a bit closer together. I want one still.

on a side note, If I was a korean I would be scooping up tons of these and selling on ebay for the world.

mouse: Razor Diamondback 3g or something...
keyboard: whatever my laptop has.

Idk why people bitch about laptop keyboards. Mine works perfectly for sc (though I will probably never be above D on iccup...).

ontopic: what makes that logitech optical thing better for sc than anything else like... say... my diamondback?

My old gear when I was more of a CS player was a Dell keyboard + Microsoft Intelli 1.1 w/ Steelseries QcK Heavy. I stopped playing CS now and I'm trying to get back into SC so my new equipment is the new generation Logitech Optical with a smaller generic black mousepad.

Razer Deathadder mouse. Since it was a team-up with Microsoft, the shape is almost the same as the Intellimouse Explorer 1 I used for 7 years or so (and actually still use for everything but gaming. They are both sitting on the gigantic razer mousepad I got for free with the Deathadder as part of the TSL promotion)

Cherry Cymotion Master Linux keyboard cause I like penguins and it matches my case. Sucks for BW though: with the extra column of keys control and escape are no longer on the corners. Thinking of a Steelseries 7g for the more old school layout plus super rare n-key rollover (for Frets on Fire, or 4 people using it at once for Mario Kart lol)

My laptop is an eee. When I play BW on it I'd sure as heck prefer an external keyboard. Luckily it's just for emergencies (like when I have to leave the basement)

unless you price gouge and make like 100% margin on it, it's definitely not worth it. (hence the extreme prices on the places that do sell them worldwide)

Bisu's fingers are blurred. That's cool, I guess.

I kinda want a DT35. But I feel like it'd be such a worthless purchase.

I didn't know the Deathadder was a team-up deal with Microsoft, I can't find that info on its page anywhere.

I know for sure my mouse was a team-up with Microsoft (in fact, its technically Microsoft's product with Razor tech in it), which, like you, is the reason I got it.

[image loading]


It feels very similar to their cheap optical mouse I had for so many years, except ergonomically designed, which I got used to in less than a day. Coincidentally, now when I use my brother's old non-ergonomic Microsoft optical, it feels so unnatural lol.

My keyboard is just a cheap $15 keyboard, but I like where all the keys are which is getting harder and harder to find in a cheap keyboard these days. I am really thinking about getting this Razor keyboard though when it comes out:

[image loading]


Its the same layout I'm using, and I love the USB port on it. Not to mention it will match my mouse! Its the same thing as their current Lycosa in terms of features, but instead of a rubber finish it has a high-gloss mirror finish which I like I better. The backlighting is pretty pimp, and the anti-ghosting / 1ms response / programmable keys stuff is all icing. Dunno if I'd actually be willing to spend that much though.. maybe I can convince someone to give it to me for xmas haha.

Isn't the Samsung DT-35 a Korean keyboard that is easy to type in Korean or has Korean keys?

Just get a Dell keyboard, and most koreans use their korean keyboard because as someone previously stated, they have small hands.
But don't be stupid if it will help you get one rank higher. It simply won't.
Same goes for the mouse. I have DeathAdder, but prefer 10000 times the mx5xx. Why i'm still using deathadder ? Cauz it looks cool and i don't really play bw much anymore.
Getting the korean keyboard may help you but only for serious gamers that have small hands (ie can't ctrl 890 with only 1 hand or use the right ctrl which korean's keyboard mostly don't have it).
Hope it helps.

Razer Deathadder mouse. Since it was a team-up with Microsoft, the shape is almost the same as the Intellimouse Explorer 1 I used for 7 years or so (and actually still use for everything but gaming. They are both sitting on the gigantic razer mousepad I got for free with the Deathadder as part of the TSL promotion)


I didn't know the Deathadder was a team-up deal with Microsoft, I can't find that info on its page anywhere.

Team-up might not be the right term. They teamed up for the (Microsoft branded) Habu, as you know. Somewhere in that arrangement, Razer got the right to use the shape and did so on the Deathadder.

The DeathAdder is by far larger than the Diamondback and the Copperhead and resembles products from the Microsoft Explorer series (the MS IntelliMouse Explorer 3.0, to be exact), especially with the rear part design. This is not surprising as I’ll explain in the section about the Microsoft Habu.
...
After a detailed description of the Razer DeathAdder above there is little I can add about the Habu because the two mice are identical in terms of ergonomics. By the way, the specification and photograph of the device are enough to realize the contribution of each company to the end product: it is in fact a Razer Copperhead in the case of the Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer 3.0.

Koreans use the DT-35 because it has the barest of essential input keys and none of those additional multimedia/email keys that a lot of other keyboards have. It's just a keyboard and nothing more, no special ergonomic design, no useless web browsing features, just a keyboard. That, and they're cheap.

Yea and it appears to be vulture micro. Maybe TvP to find weaknesses? :D

Anyways, cool post. Seems like all progamers use pretty much the same keyboard and mouse. So I guess we can rule out that the equipment is what separates a bonjwa from a scrub

i love how all the superduper 100dollar razer mice get praised as gamermice, and everyone wants keyboards with glowing keys with displays n shit. and than the pix.

wasnt there a thread here not too long ago someone wanted to order that keyboard for 80 dollars or something. i have one of those at home, there is absolutely zero difference to my shitty microsoft keyboard that came with the computer. pros use it because they have 400 apm and play 10 hours a day. its clunky and sturdy and easily replaceable.

TL;DR:
For the best input devices for Starcraft, I'd certainly put more weight in what the pros use than anything some random schlub like me would say. But there are reasons sometimes to use something else, and that something else is hopefully not going to suck for Starcraft

there is absolutely zero difference to my shitty microsoft keyboard

Pretty much agreed about the glowing stuff and extra keys on keyboards. Which is why, if I splurged on a "gamer" keyboard I'd get the Steelseries 7g I mentioned earlier. Nothing extra there. So why bother with it instead of a cheapy Microsoft KB? Try pressing, for example, q-w-a-s at the same time on yours. Not going to happen.

There are very very few keyboards that can handle any combo of keys you throw at it. 7g is one. The Filco Majestouch FKBN104M/EB is another. I believe another is the Topre Realforce ML0100. That's pretty much all I can find. They're all rated for 50 million keystrokes and up. All of these are pretty plain looking (and the Topre has no Win key), but expensive. They're also hard to order from the US, except for the 7g.

Stepping down some, there's also the Raptor K1 which claims to have it as well, though in practice its USB interface limits it to 6 at once. Razer's Tarantula is similar with it's anti-ghosting, but is still limited by USB. To me these are your standard blingy gaming KBs and I don't think I'd bother. Backlit keys would be nice for darkened rooms, but the added complexity is not necessarily a good thing. For darkened rooms I bring a headlamp lol

Anyway, full n-key rollover is not needed/wanted/missed by most people. You don't really need it for Starcraft. So unless you are doing something else with it where you would want that feature, it totally makes sense to go with a standard layout cheaper keyboard. Obviously the pros feel that way.
razer and razer optic and lazer is bullshit

esreality disagrees. At least, depending on which of Razer's mouses you go for. Check the graphs and see why I got the Deathadder (which did admittedly have some problems before some firmware updates). Super fast tracking speed isn't as necessary for Starcraft of course, but as with my keyboards I consider that Starcraft isn't the only game I play (I do a lot of FPS). Others will obviously differ.

Anyway, there's why I'd consider a more expensive KB. For pure Starcraft, don't bother. That's about all i can add to this thread.

For a mouse I use an MX518 that I'm going to have to return tonight because my friend doesn't know I took it (and I see him again tonight). I used one of those jankass ball mice with the like 10 pronged adapter for the longest time, but my new laptop doesn't support it since it went obsolete a few years ago. I have no clue what mouse I'm going to use after today, hopefully someone will lend me one!

As for keyboard, I use the laptop keyboard that comes with the Thinkpad T61. It's excellent, honestly. Pretty much the gold-standard of laptop keyboards. One little thing that bothers me is that the Fn key is on the far left, then the Ctrl, so for the first few weeks I had it, I kept on trying to hotkey things with my Function key. Annoying. I've since gotten used to it, and honestly, the keyboard is great.

media keys? YA DONT NEED EM
mine is IBM model M , made in USA , 1995
not even got windows keys
once you've tried the best , you won't use those cheap chinese keyboards ever again

looking at the DT-35 there i believe a reason it is popular is the weight of thing
seems to come in at 1.3kg which is quite heavy for a new keyboard
it's alot easier to punch buttons faster when your keyboard doesnt move around the desk (can be a problem for sub 1kg keyboards)
Once again back is the incredible!

The Samsung DT-35 only accepts a two keypresses at any one moment. The DT35 sucks ass for non-SC gaming. However, That's probably an advantage for SC

I use a KTEC KTM 6500 :D. According to Mr. Lee I was the first person in Canada to own one. I have mine rigged up with hockey stick tape for better grip.

As for my keyboard I use a peice of shit HP keyboard that came free with my computer; it gets the job done.

I have a hard time believing that.
Mostly because CTRL+ALT+DEL.
Can you still use it?
Or does it give Ctrl+alt+del and exception?
