Poll: What keyboard will you use?
(Vote): Old school Samsung
(Vote): Something else
With the release of SC2 coming up pretty soon i was just wondering what type of keyboard set up the pros / general community of TL will be using.
SC1 was dominated mainly with the Samsung keyboard was wondering if you guys think SC2 will continue this trend or swap over to something new?
Interestingly enough SteelSeries is introducing a SC2 keyboard which allows macros in the game. G15 keyboards can do the same. I think this will give people who own these keyboards a competitive edge? What do you think?

does that keyboard let you program single keypresses to do like "AAAA" because shit like that is macro imba for sc2.
Btw, the oldschool samsung is called the Samsung/Qsenn SEM DT-35 Keyboard

yurp,
people with G35s atm can hot key a single button to select their production buildings and build something straight away with a single key stroke.
E.g. building probes or scvs

This is the "PROTOS" keyboard. Now I remember it.
Macros.. don't know. Maybe if you play zerg, you can have a bit faster production.
Unitcontrolwise it won't matter at all. Now you can put as many units under one key as you want, so why bother with macros. You don't have to press 1a2a3a4a5a6a7a anymore.

why is the old samsung keyboard better for SC?
|
I can already see such keyboards or macro functions beeing banned at tournaments.

Razor is also coming out with a Sc2 Keytboard.

I bought a new keyboard two weeks ago. Cost me €8,99. I guess I'll stick with it for a while

Hahaha, still really hoping they'll implement this. Anyone have any update besides blizz "looking into it"?

randomlogitechkeyboard FOOOOO

I'm pretty sure serious tournaments are not going to allow the use of macros, so really just buy any keyboard that you feel comfortable with and use that.
Samsung DT-35 is not special in any way btw. its just like any $20 standard keyboard you can find in your local store.

Oldass HP "internet connect" keyboard that I've been using since my last one died to a carelessly placed cup of coffee >.>;;
Spending my next funds on a graphics card that doesn't freeze. Then likely get a samsung to finally replace this left over.
Gaming keyboards seem gimmicky as all heck but I do admit it at least looks nifty.

This. And that's how it should be.

I use an old school IBM model M. It's great when I'm going through my production buildings and you hear a ton of *click clacks* from my keyboard. No windows key is always nice too when gaming, but SC2 has an option to disable it. =x
