Hi.
I'd like to buy a mechanical keyboard. Which switches (cherry mx) do you think are better?

Cherry mx red for the win. They are the lightest so it won't drain your stamina too much.

this is just preference most people use Brown or Red but some people like GODTOZER (player in video) use blues :)

If you get a chance, test the different switches for yourself. Switch type is completely personal preference. Blues might have a very small disadvantage since you can't partially release them and just hover right above the actuation point, but other than that there's no real difference other than how they feel to you.

Don't get blues, they are essentially just worse browns and no it's not just about how they feel, the difference between blues and brown is the amount of force you need to register the key. This mean that if you get blues you'll be using more force than really necessary and it'll only make things harder once you reach into some more serious territory. And before you say the clickiness of blue helps with whatever then no. Whether it's brown or blue, your keyboard will be loud enough anyway for it to not matter.
