I made a Video review of ZOWIE's new mechanical keyboard Celeritas for the swedish website Rakaka.se. Eventhough it's made in swedish I figured that a lot of you Starcraft 2 players would have an intrested in a reivew of a mechanical keyboard. Also the Ultimate Weapin Flash and his team KT Rolster is using it as is the Starcraft 2 clan fOu.

Didn't know were to post it so I hope it's no problem in this forum also I figured that some of the forum readers are in fact from Sweden. Hope you liked the review and it gives you some more insight if it's a keyboard for you or not.

Take me to the Review of ZOWIE Celeritas

I think you'll get more and better replies here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/index.php?show_part=46

Also, your review is in Swedish. No translation?

Oh boy! Flash uses it, that means it must be good!

On a more serious note keyboards don't really matter. If pro sc broodwar players used the cheapest on they could find (DT-35), then i don't see a reason to spend any more money

It wont make you better as a player, but mechanical keyboards are always superior to rubber dome. Pretty much anyone who has used one will say the same.

You do realize you contradicted yourself.

You're stating your skepticism of how a pro uses a keyboard, thus it must be good.
Then you truthfully say that keyboards don't matter because you saw SC Pros use cheap keyboards, thus you don't see a reason to spend any money on a mechanical keyboard.

Both of your statements: your skepticism and your rationale are based around the same idea. You're saying keyboards don't matter and using a pro to promote the idea that a keyboard does is silly, but then you reference how a pro uses a cheap keyboard, thus saying that you shouldn't waste money on a keyboard.

Did you not look at the spoiler? He was not serious with his first statement it was completely sarcastic.

Reread my post.
Reread his post too.

His first statement: "Just because a pro uses it, doesn't mean a keyboard is worth the money"
Second statement: "I've seen pros use cheap keyboards, that means I don't need to buy a mechanical keyboard".

They're both based on the same reasoning. One he trolls over and the other is to validate his own logic.

Wrong. Wrong. And Wrong again.

l2read holy shizzle. I didn't criticize pros decision of what keyboard to use. In fact I believe that pros are some of the most knowledgeable people regarding that, because it is their life you know. I was making fun of the fact that people would take their information from a biased source. Flash most likely got paid to use the keyboard rather than personal preference (why else would he pose with the keyboard LOL). I was sarcastically following the line of reasoning the company wants you to follow. They want you to reason that 'if flash uses that means it must be good!' Don't put words in my mouth bro.

I'm just stating that you say a statement to debunk with one line of reasoning and then use the same line of reasoning to validate.

Let's give an example: "You don't need to buy that product, the pro is just paid to use it for marketing purposes, further proving that XYZ product doesn't have any effect.

I saw professionals use cheaper forms of those products and they're pro, thus further proving that XYZ product has 0 value.

Same line of reasoning, two contrasting intentions. I guess contradictory is the poor choice of words.

Nonetheless, this is off-topic, so I'll just drop it here.
