Players who are relatively less-bad at the game, what kind of keyboard switches do you use for osu?

Speed Silvers? Low profile Reds? MX Blacks? Kailh Coppers? Something else?

O-rings, yes/no?

I'm using Gateron Clears at the moment but they're way too light, going to modifiy them with heavier springs sometime. I use o-rings on them, the shortened travel is nice. I feel that any linear switch will work pretty well for osu, just get one with a weighting that feels good to you. It's partly preference.

Yeah, pick your favorite linear switch. I like silvers more than reds. Some high profile players use tactile switches though, so it REALLY comes down to personal preference.

As for O-Rings, I love mine.

Cherry MX Speed Silver are good switches for osu! specifically, due to the 1.2mm actuation distance compared to the 2mm required for Cherry MX Red switches to actuate.

Also yes, I use Speed Silvers.
