I currently have a razor widowmaker ultimate 2016, I like the numpad but I really want something new. What would be a good mechanical keyboard in the 50-150 range. I do not have any preferences other than I would like it to be quieter than what I have. Ty for your time
I had my Naga Epic for I think that long if not longer. A blackwidow ultimate for 12 years too. They were both showing their age and had some issues so I went to Logitech stuff earlier this year.... I miss my high quality Razer stuff.
Mechanical keyboard clicking gets old really quick I was like you and liked the clicking sound and still do but I bought a razer Black widow with green tactile switches and the thing drives me nuts with how loud it is while typing now, if I was to buy another razer keyboard I would go with either the yellow or orange switches to still get that clicky sound but not as loud.
I actually prefer the longer travel, myself, but that might be because I have fairly big hands. I'm on an old Blackwidow with green switches, and I love it. this is my second blackwidow, and I've probably had this one for at least 3 or 4 years, and I game for at least 4-5 hours almost every night. It's starting to show it's age, though, so I'm debating between another Blackwidow or a SteelSeries Apex 7 with Blue switches (similar switches to the Razer Green).
I like Corsair keyboards but I find razer black widow series to be better all around.
I second the black widow. Probably your best bet. Then get steel key caps.
Been my goto set since sc2 released. During beta though i was using an old, and tiny ps2 keyboard that was phenomenal and i doubt any other keyboard could beat in my eyes. Look for a smaller set of keys? Youll adjust to the bw quicker than you think, but as a recommendation, also get the naga so you dont have to move your keyboard hand all that much. It’s helped me fathoms over the years
I went from Razer Blackwidow, which is similar to your Ducky, to Wooting 80HE. The difference is night and day and the Wooting was irrefutably better. I had to mod mine for more tactile keys as it was hard for me to feel like I was hitting keys, but I've gotten used to it now. The default Wooting should honestly be universally satisfying for most keyboard preferences otherwise
Learned to play Zerg on a Blackwidow way back in the day still miss the black switches tbh. Heavy and clacky
all their mice work perfectly for me with zero issues. i had a blackwidow keyboard from them start double typing, which is apparently a known issue with them. i had a huntsman v2 mini from them that works perfectly after years of use. i recently got a deathstalker v2 pro tkl that works ok so far too. i've had two mechanical keyboards fail on me, one razer, one not, neither optical. so i don't know if it's a razer issue or just non-optical mechanical keyboards being unreliable
