A perfectly ordinary Logitech keyboard, deluxe 250 I think it's called. Though I have written "MAIM! KILL! DESTROY!" on it to remind me what starcraft, and gaming in general, is all about.

Feels good.
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

I was using a Saitek Eclipse I got for about $25, but wanted media keys, so I bought a G15 when they went on sale on Newegg for $30. It's taking a bit of getting used to...I keep hitting the bottom left macro key instead of ctrl, and the keys are lower profile than the Eclipse, but I think (hope) I'll get used to it...

The Eclipse was fantastic, though. Very responsive and flashy.

I've got a Microsoft Sidewinder x6... Only got it cause I was building my pc, and wanted everything to have a glow to it ... Also, I had like $200 credit at EBGames, and needed something to pump it into.

Using a Filco Majestouch(tenkeyless) with Brown switches. Have to say I was a little skeptical but figured with as many people as there were nerdgasming over it/mechanicals that it would be worth a try. After a week or so I tried typing on my previous rubber dome keyboard and have to say I will never type on one again if at all possible. This is probably one of the best purchases I ever made for my computer.

Cheap Dell keyboard]s work fine
[image loading]

I've tried uber expensive keyboards... but the money difference just isn't really worth it. Find a keyboard that clicks well and has responsive buttons and thats all you need imo


This is the same keyboard I use, and I found it to be awesome for RTS, even though it's cheap. The keys just depress so smoothly compared to other keyboards I've used in the past, and it's much more comfortable for my hands because of that. I've used several brands in the past, and microsoft keyboards in particular I've found to be much more cumbersome.


cant stand those dell keyboards. they have em at school, tried to play sc2 on the keyboards, and it was terrible. keys feel like mush and they dont feel tactile at all. its like pressing on jello that you only left in the fridge for like 2 hours or so... i dont like them.

Does anyone know anything about the i Rocks Technology KR-6230 Compac? Here's a link to the product page, http://www.i-rocksusa.com/products/KR-6230.html

This keyboard uses Cherry MX browns. I wasn't able to find any reviews on it.

I used Dell QuietKey until I recently visited Seoul and picked up 2 DT35s. I wouldn't say the DT35 is better, but there are differences that are more based on personal preference than superior features

- DT35 has closer spacing between keys and smaller keys compared to the Quietkey. This means you can ctrl+6/7 much easier on the DT35 than Quietkey. On the other hand, if you have big (not long) fingers, you might find yourself hitting the wrong keys with the DT35. My preference is for the DT35 in this regard

- The keys are always higher as you move up in rows on the DT35. For the Quietkey, there is a concave where the second row (shift z x c...shift) is the lowest. The height spacing between the two keyboards are also different, but without taking a picture its difficult to describe. There is a bigger difference between the lowest and highest keys on the DT35 than on the Quietkey. I don't have a strong preference for this either way.

- The keystroke feedback and finish on the keys are different. DT35 has a firmer feel and a rougher finish, whereas the Quietkey has a softer feel with a semi-gloss finish. The Quietkey is probably made to be quieter, and it is noticeably so when inputting keystrokes. However, I prefer the heavier feedback of the DT35 to the soft feedback on the Quietkey.

- DT35 has a few extra keys to switch between Korean and English input. Doesn't seem to do anything on English version of W7. DT35 also has Korean printed on the keys (in addition to english), which gives me the illusion that I am semi-pro Korean (I am n00b Chinese). Preference goes to DT35 for this.

Personally I prefer the DT35 over the Quietkey mostly because of the closer spacing with the keys, which makes it easier for me to macro as I can access control groups 1-7 with ease. I noticed that my average APM went from 80 to 100 after switching to the DT35 as well. I bought the keyboard for about $10 USD each so it is well worth it, but I probably wouldn't pay the $30 or so it costs to buy it imported here. I think Koreans use it because it suits smaller hands, but for Europeans with larger hands it is probably not optimal.

I used a Microsoft Wired 600 keyboard for a while. I actually really liked the feel, but the 'E' key died when I was playing SF4 (probably because of my 12e spam in sc2 ><).

Now I use an ABS M1 with Black ALPS. It's pretty good, but the actuation force is really high (around 70g) so I kinda want a Cherry MX Brown keyboard atm.

70g is around where most keyboards are, speaking of rubber dome, it's not really alot of force the diff is that you have a spring always pushing back up on you which makes it feel like it's more.

They are ALPS switches, different from the "Cherry" variety (brown, blue, black) that are usually discussed here.

I have not ever tried ALPS myself, you can read about them here: http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=ALPS switches

Does anyone else use this keyboard? Any thoughts on the blue switches for FPS/Starcraft 2?



Just picked this board up and am loving it. This is also my first mechanical KB so maybe I'm just loving the switches.

I don't think you will be disappointed. Construction seems to be very sturdy like wayyy beyond any other rubber dome I have ever used.

Just my 2cents. Hope that helps.
