Gone through one 5h + siberia and now im on my 2nd Steelseries 7h headset and the mic is already half broken. Still on my first razer deathadder for a few years now.

Its pretty obvious which company makes more quality products..

Razer mousepad that I bought for $50, so what if its expensive. It lasts because its a Razer product. I had a Krait mouse from them for 4 years daily use, as well as a barracuda headset/sound card, lasted a long time before I decided to upgrade. Great company.

You're comparing headsets to mice?

Glad the $65 I just spent on one of their mouses is going somewhere good.
To the pockets of the people that run the company.
Who now sponsor FXOpen.
Nevermind.

id rather have razer chose one team to sponsor, theyr sponsoring so damn much atm. oh well, its great anyway! congrats!


i know having multiple teams being supported is terrible for the scene!


i actually call this a VERY smart move from Razer and I wouldnt be suprised if someone from FXO(not the Sc2 team, the CEO or Administrators) is responsible for the way Razer might think. Simply because FXO is a Forex Trading company, can be compared to South Korea Telecomm sponsoring a SC1 team named SKT1 or SamsungKhan(Khan means family if im right) this is pure business. And for Razer to sponsor multiple players/teams it means they, in some ways, gain a monopoly of "image Marketing" by putting multiple teams under sponsorship contracts, they get a HUGE moving/TV advertisement, all that for peanuts. lets say they decide to sponsor all the GSTL teams... Logitech wouldnt get a chance for advertisement, or any other mouse company, and with the number of kids watching NesTea play OMG MOM I WANT THIS MOUSE PLZ PLZ PLZ effect is bringing dollars to them, a TV ad spot is worth hundred of thousands... the Keyboard and mouse that you pay around 80-115USD$ for are actually worth 10-15 at the most. the cost is packaging, shipping, going from a company, to a wholeseller then a retail store... everyone "eats" on it. Razer throws Keyborads and mouse to 10 teams (lets estimate the cost at 30$ for a set KB + mouse) 10 players per team (300$)
multiplied by 10 teams (3000$) a TV ad during primetime on FOX for 30 seconds is about 95000USD$

if you were the Razer CEO... what would you do. dont even need to tell me, yeah, guys here are keyboards mice etc. now walk around 3 days at every LAN events with a Razer logo on your Team's shirt/jacket and have 1500+ angry moms at you for their kids asking a brand new Razer mouse.

ThermalTake e-Sports hs also announced new sponsorships recently. I enjoy seeing these 2 companies getting involved in teh scene, bringing players what THEY need since traveling lodging etc is very expensive, and I speak of experience. The more a pro-team can save on, the more players will be able to travel more and attend more events, and make e-sports more of a worldwide thing over a korean centralization (eg: games on cable TV (hey there FOX, ABC... dare you guys to start negociating with MLG for broadcasts) and more than just 4 MLG events a year in america. hey. Canada could host a MLG Vancouver and a MLG Toronto maybe ? hell even montreal has ideal places for this, and MLG has a growing number of canadians im thinking quickly of HuK(ON), KiWi(QC), Slush(QC) desRow(QC) coL.Stalife(BC) and more, why not ?

CEO's please sit together look at whats in front of you all now. make it happen, like in Korea. Bigger than Korea. Airline companies, Banks, Telecomms etc. The scene needs your help. This is one great marketing investment for all of you. do it.

If your're still reading the post at that point, i conclude you really love the scene and care about e-sports. As fans we need to keep supporting our favorite teams and players and cheer for them as hard as your old man cheers when watching hockey footbal bball or w/e sport from his "generation" (giggles)

Thanks for reading me, and please dont mind typos, i didnt revised myself, and im dead tired coming back from a funeral

Already use a Razer mouse and I'm in the market for a new keyboard. I'm definitely looking at Razer keyboards now after how great the mouse is as well as their awesome support of the e-Sport scene.

Grats FXO !

Expensive != quality/reliable. I've never had a razer mouse last longer then a year. And this Lycosa has buttons that randomly turn off until I unplug it then plug it back in. Their stuff does look good though, and its comfortable.

I'm really happy for FXO right now, I think that the team is going to benefit immensely from this sponsorship...not to mention going to Korea.

Woot, woot.

Don't be surprised when a crack in the ice...appears under your feet.
