Headset, mouse, and keyboard all given a fair shot, and all either break, malfunction catastrophically (so, spectacularly break), or are just garbage in every way. Had a 6gv2 since they came out, and have had 0 issues. IMO buy a decent mechanical and get some Sennheisers. No need for bad shiny loot. their mouse are really good. My deathadder is at a 3.5 years and still is one of the best mouse I have ever used. I actually like their mouse mat the best. No other companies have that kind of soft thick mat with that many size to choose from 6gv2 isn't all that amazing compared to blackwidow, their keycaps are kinda bad. money could have been spent on a better one like a ducky | ||

This is about exactly one thing, and as soon as this money doesn't flow anymore, every friendship is gone. So don't buy Steelseries no more, but buy Razer to grow E-Sports. Be a man. i assume you dont know or are not old enough to talk about the mysterious thing called "business". And what does "Be a man" even mean? I tried every logical explanation and even chauvinistic ones, but i got no clue. | ||

The action just faded too quickly in the one I got. I have the Abyssus now which is stellar, and on that note good for EG. | ||

However, razer does make excellent mice, i love my abyssus. Same gear! Couldn't be happier with these 2 pieces for mouse + keyboard. | ||

Now that reason is gone and I finally can buy SteelSeries gear without feeling like i'm encouraging un-worthy lazy gamers :D | ||

I don't like Razer because I had multiple problems with their service and decided to not buy shit from them anymore... although I must admit Deathadder is one of the best mouse I ever had. | ||

The whole sponsorship concept is one of the silliest business concepts in the world. It's unbelievable how stupid people must be if they think a product means anything more if it is sponsoring someone. It's almost as corrupt as the lottery, but don't worry, it's business. I'm pretty sure the "Be a man." part is trying to say that "real men buy Razer because it's sponsoring their favorite team." You know, because a "man" does the RIGHT thing. It was sarcasm. | ||

I also find this Razer monopoly a bit boring. I'd love to see Logitech get into sponsoring teams. I hear the G710+ is amazing. Tt Esports sponsors a variety of SC2 team/players as well. Teams/players such as: Prime, White-Ra, Tastosis, etc. I prefer Steelseries products over Razer. But eh, I'll stick to the peripherals I already have. I like Totalbiscuit's thinking though of not having a peripheral sponsor, just let the users use what they're comfortable with instead of forcing them to use the sponsors' peripherals but at the same time, I'm sure EG is getting funding out of the Razer deal too. | ||

Of course EG players are going to talk well about SS products, because it's the sole reason SS is sponsoring in the first place : publicity. It has absolutely nothing to do with friendship =_= You're obviously confused about the fact that liking something is not the same as disliking something. If this is not a linguistic problem on your side, but rather a attempt of flamebaiting please not that the bait was not taken. | ||
