Just want to know in what ways mech keys are superior, and whether or not I should invest in one.
Some people say it improves streaming?

Anything that is not a blackwidow is finekevpwns wrote:
Any suggestions to a mechanical keyboard?
Blackwidows use a blue switch, but they make them differently than every other keyboard ever, so they don't 'feel' like 'real' blue switches. The boards are also famous for having terrible build quality, and they aren't even particularly cheap, relative to other, better boards.kevpwns wrote:
Is blackwidow just bad or something? Lol
Edit: I see nvm
Also goldenwolf how long did it take till your keyboard started doing that?
Yes.kevpwns wrote:
Do you guys think steel series makes good mechanical keyboards?
The first key broke a month after getting it, the longest lifetime of a set of keys was 4 monthskevpwns wrote:

Just pick whatever you want. Just note that steelseries only provides black switch keyboards Not 100% sure about this, correct me if I'm wrong so you need to look at other keyboards if you want another type of switch.kevpwns wrote:
i really like backlight but i also really like boards by steelseries lol
idk which to pick

Probably going to break half the keyboard before getting a new one though
well my logitech keyboard is starting to malfunction.. but its been awhile. It feels a bit unresponsive though. I'm not trying to attack dome keyboards or anything but i just wanted to know how significant of an improvement mechs have over domesCrimson Wolf wrote:
There's nothing bad about rubber dome keyboards. When compared, they're still ok, not bad.
My old keyboard was a microsoft sidewinder x4, I've had it for nearly 3 years and still up to this day performs as good as it was when I first got it. I switched to CM Storm Quickfire tk reds a couple of days ago and my choice on any type of keyboard would obviously be mechanical, but to say all membranes/rubber domes are shit keyboards is just a lie and plain dumb thing to say.

im probably gonna get red switches just cos they are easy to press, and i agree with you when i press a lot of times i miss easy notes because my board isnt registering hitsJarvile wrote:
My mech keyboard feels far more consistent than my rubber dome, no more "I swear to God I hit the button" scenarios anymore.
Also having a brick on your desk is a plus.
no, the worst mech is 10 times better than the best dome imoHeinzen wrote:
Good domes are just as good as good mechas. But don't expect a 5$ dome to be as good as a 120$ mecha lel
Also, most stepmania players prefer domes over mechanicals, a few exceptions among pros like Staiain go mech
Most rhythm-games players prefer domes over Mechas. I'm not sure why, I myself prefer mechanicals. But good domes are good keybords.iderekmc wrote:
