CM Quickfire ultimate
Learn more about mechanical keyboards first, in case you're still not experienced enough to determine which switch is best for you. http://www.overclock.net/t/491752/offic ... oard-guide
Experiment and test keyboards for yourself to roughly know which is best for you before buying.
If you don't have any problems with price, here are some brands you can choose.
Corsair K70 or K95 - really durable with a rigid aluminum base, USB pass-through is really useful (especially with CTL-480's short USB cable!!!), thick braided cable for even more durability (I have this)
Ducky Shine - expensive but reliable and durable (based on reviews)
Blackwidow X - newer version of the Razer Blackwidow, probably good (?)(never tried)
Or you can try out keyboards with switches other than Cherry MX, other folks from G&R would suggest you those
Low on budget?
I suggest opting for tenkeyless keyboards if you are really low on money.
CMStorm Quickfire variations- Reliable and really cheap!
Corsair K65 - Like the K70, without the numpad.
Other brands are either not reliable, not easily accessible, or ones I haven't tried yet.
Some links that could help you:

Budget ones

P.S. I hope we have a sticky for osu! equipment/peripherals guide too

get a razer gamer keyboard with 16000 dpi switches and a hotpocket wrist rest
also consider one of thnikk' keypads if you don't want to invest in a full mechanical keyboard and it's also very practical since it's far smaller.

im trying to decide between browns and reds
If you haven't already, consider also Cherry MX SpeedRhyktangle wrote:

I have ducky zero (cherry mx red), and yes it's really durable, I have stick to * and - key for about more than 5 mil hits and neither have been broken.Rhyktangle wrote:

I prefer brown, I'm using Filco Majestouch 2 (cherry mx brown) for now but I can't say if it's durable because I only have using it for 5 months. I heard brown could loss the tactile from usage.Rhyktangle wrote:
