Hey guys!
I plan on making a list of which mice/pads/keyboards are used by which pro gamer. If you know any, just post below and I'll consolidate all the answers into this first post! I'll start us off with IdrA and any others that I find out about over time.
They are sorted alphabetically by main name (so EGIdrA is I for example)
The pattern is:
Mouse / Mousepad / Keyboard
SlayerSBoxeR - Razer Deathadder / Kespa Mousepad / Filco (Cherry MX blue)
Day[9] - Razer Diamondback 3G / ? / ?
mTwDeMusLiM - Steelseries Kinzu / Steelseries Qck-mini / Qsenn DT-35
mtw.Dimaga - Logitech MX300/ Roccat Taito mtw edition / Logitech Classic Keyboard 200
FruitDealer - Logitech G9 / Kespa Mousepad / Filco Majestouch (Cherry MX brown)
egIdrA - Steelseries Kinzu / eg-steelseries qck+ pad / 6gv2 keyboard (confirmed by IdrA)
wemadefox'Lyn - Razer Diamondback / ? / Steelseries 7g
SK.MadFrog - Steelseries Xai/ Steelseries QCK SK edition/ Steelseries 7g
wemadefox'Moon - Razer Krait / Steelseries qck standard / Qsenn DT-35
Mouz'Morrow - Razer Deathadder / Goliathus Speed / ?
Nada - Logitech G1 / ? / ?
NesTea - Logitech G1 / ? / ?
qxc.root - Diamondback / Steelseries Heavy / Dell SK-8115
Liquid'Jinro - G5 / ? / ?
Liquid'Ret - Razer Abyssus / Razer Goliathus Control / Qsenn DT-35
aaa'Sarens - Roccat Kova/ Steelseries/ Steelseries 6g
Liquid'TLO - KTec 9500+ / Razer Goliathus / Qsenn DT-35
Liquid'Tyler - Razer Salmosa /? / Filco 104M / CB-AI with browns
If you plan to contribute to the thread, please use the above format! Makes it much easier for me to add!

NesTea and Nada use Logitech G1. Nada switched from mini optical two month ago.
IdrA really uses the Xai and not the kinzu?

you may actually be right... I just thought it was the XAI, because I have the XAI as well and it looked virtually identical... But on the EG homepage it says Kinzu, so I changed the OP to reflect that until I know otherwise... Thanks! Good catch!

I thought about compiling something like this a while back. Here is the intel that I have gathered:
I'm not sold that Idra he uses a Kinzu/Xai mouse - I remember seeing him use something similar to the one pictured http://media.photobucket.com/image/ret%20gsl/Monotronik/TL/GSL11AregkEdit.jpg This photo looks oldish and pre EGIdra maybe.
QXC uses this Dell keyboard (unsure of model name) - http://www.computer-reclaim.co.uk/ekmps/shops/comprec/images/dell_keyboard_1%281%29.jpg
Fenix, KawaiiRice use the steelseries 6g v2 http://www.computersfile.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/steel-series-6gv2-gaming-keyboard.jpg
Idra, Jinro(?), a butload of other players use the QSenn-DT-35 http://pic.tradeage.com/samsung-authenic-keyboard-qsenn-dt-35-black-white-48268.jpeg
Orb I believe uses a Razer Lycosa http://www.gadgettastic.com/images/razer_lycosa.jpg / Razer Mouse not sure of the model.
|
I am not sure if IdrA uses the QSenn-DT-35 or the Steelseries 7g, I know he used the QSenn at MLG but that was borrowed from Artosis who does use it. I could swear I've seen him at events using the 7g.
|
That dell keyboards name is SK-8115
I have seen idra playing with the kizu/xai on last gsl qualifier in artosis recordings. I really cant believe its the Xai because having used a lmo before, the Xai is so much bigger and heavier, it has to be the kinzu.
|
Love the idea of this thread, and hope to see some more solid input.
So what do some of these pros use when they have the alternating black/white keyboards?
|
I believe Day9 said he uses the Diamondback 3G and not the Diamondback. I don't have anyway to verify this though, I just remember him saying it in a daily. I may be wrong. Also, I have no idea what the difference is between the 3g and regular one, and I have the regular Diamondback (not that that matters, lol).
I think all the EG guys use that freakin' humongous EG mousepad, a special edition Steelseries QCK+ with the EG logo. At least I remember seeing iNcontrol, Idra and Machine using it at MLG.

Fnatic and SK gaming have special edition steelseries mousepads too, but I don't recall looking at their gear to confirm. MLG usually gives good angles on the player's gear, so maybe someone remembers if Gretorp, TT1 or Sen had this mousepad:

Tyler uses the QSenn DT-35 that Hwanni gave him with buttons ripped out, boxer-style. He uses the Razer Salmosa mouse too.
Video with Tyler and his gear (and bnet win streak, what a showoff  ):

I am 100% sure Idra uses the Kinzu, because i have print screens with gamers from MLG Dallas, and idra's mouse doesn't have the side buttons that tha XAI has, so he uses the Kinzu for sure.
The protoss guy that was in the finals (can't remember his name right now) uses the "Xai" and the "SteelSeries QcK+ Fnatic Pad" (that yellow+black one)
I'm almost positive that Nazgul uses Logitech G3(uses left hand), and I'll update on the others after I check the printscreens(which are at home  )
Cheers
Edit: Protoss guy= TTone

Yes, he does, I didn't realize there was an old version without the 3g.... corrected...
Ok, off to the dentist now, will update the rest later...

I hadn't seen that video before, it is soo awesome. Tyler you baller.

I wonder why must pro-gamers use optical mice...And the EG guys, why don't they use the XAI(wayy better than kinzu)? I checked their gear, and it's like Kinzu and Ikari all over (mostly kinzu).Maby it's a confort issue and not a laser/optical sensor issue, but still...I find this weird.

FruitDealer uses a Kespa mousepad. I have a WeMade one, they're pretty shitty.

Wooo, I have that one! *instantly feel 300x cooler* Killer mouse for RTS though, and suits my grip really well. But wait, this means I now have no excuse for not being way high up in diamond. Brb, practicing.

If you're referring to JangBi's keyboard, it's a DT35 if I'm not mistaken. It comes in both black and white, so he just took a bunch of keys and switched them out.

Yeah, I assumed it was stricly cosmetic. Looks cool, though.
