Using my trusty Das Keyboard for any game I play. Nothing beats the old skool clicky-clicky noise while you play a game. Takes me back to when I just started gaming.

Using a razer lycosa. It just makes sense for a keyboard to be more like a laptop setup where its flat. I hate the standard style of keyboard it feels very clunky and uncomfortable. My already shitty wpm would drop on one of those things. I wish though that it was smaller. Don't have the biggest hands to begin with and the closer all the numbers and letters are the easier the reach is.

I'm using this

This is perfect for gaming, but the keys doesn't seem durable enough to last for a long time. Sometimes, 1 of the keys doesn't work properly and I have to tap it really hard. This is harder to "fix" than the average keyboard as under every key is a rubbery thingy that has to be placed perfectly.

I'm trying to find something similar to replace it, in case this one dies.

I'm using a Logitech G15 keyboard.

I don't have the beta yet, but I'm using it for all the games I play, and I think it'll be pretty useful for SC2.

Things like selecting a control group, then tabbing 1-2-3times to select the correct production building, and the likes, it could be pretty useful, I'll have to take a look at this once I get the game.

This. I threw away from G15 for this Keyboard. Das Keyboard isn't pretty, but I highly doubt any SC player cares, because it's responsive, crisp, and durable as all hell. It sounds hilarious, but it's honestly the best keyboard I've ever owned, and I've been through four of the high end "gaming" keyboards. This keyboard is seriously like crack. Only downside is that it's loud as hell, so do not purchase if it i s going used the same room as your sleeping GF, because she will rage.

Why would a Keyboard affect the game like a mouse does?

a keyboard doesn't have DPI settings like a mouse which can affect gameplay at higher resolutions.

because if your keyboard has annoying placement of the keys, or keys that have bad response, it's gonna influence your play in a bad way.

Or buttons that are to hard to press (making your fingers tired very quickly) or to soft to press (hitting wrong buttons), etc etc

I've got an ABS m1 which is a mechanical keyboard similar to the Das Keyboard but not as durable (nor as expensive). For a no-frills mechanical keyboard it's not bad, but definitely not cheap at $70. I quite enjoy it though, and the responsiveness/durability seems well worth the cost given the number of terrible soft-keyed keyboards I've gone through.

I also have the cyborg, but unfortunately the keys are pretty mushy. I wouldn't recommend it unless you really must have flashy multicolor back-lighting.

I must.
