i think peopke are of the opinion that it depends on the game at least somewhat.or brown, black, red... Pro SC2 players seem to use whatever switch they want lol.
all the fps folks i know prefer linear shen using mx. sc2 players seem pretty happy using mx blues.

I've also heard that fps->linear, rts->tactile, almost here and there.
Yeah, with fps you're not really double tapping intentionally, but often you'll repeatedly hit keys moving in quick succession (WASD).i think peopke are of the opinion that it depends on the game at least somewhat.

Topre don't have hysteresis, but the way the dome collapses and "resets" ........making them less optimal for low impact / fatigue typing and FPS gaming.
Typing on MX - 114 WPM
Typing on Topre - 114 WPM
Switch type doesn't make a noticeable difference in gaming - it's all a myth; if you're bad at gaming, changing to a different switch won't make you better.
All that matters is that you choose what is most comfortable for you.
I pick what feels better and what feels better to me is Topre.
No.. double taping is not important for gaming..100% tp4 extract
In fact.. the KEYBOARD itself isn't that important for gaming..
They just want to sell you more stuff.. hence gaming..

My typing on black is 4 wpm faster than red, and red 9 wpm faster than brown. I don't know if it's a myth.
Many said double tapping has better performance in FPS. I don't know if it makes a difference in actual performance , or just in feeling.
Can anyone confirm that a faster double tapping keyboard leads to more kill & less killed, or whatever better gaming statistic?

Clicky switches have hysteresis (release point higher than actuation point) which requires more finger movement for double taps (which you actaully do quite a lot of in typing, there are many words with double letters and of course hitting backspace is a good example) and don't allow you to "hover" on the movement keys in FPS games like you can with linears and tactile switches. On tactile switches the bump acts as a nice backstop to let you know when the switch is at the release / actuation point and allows you to find the hover point more easily than on linears.Hysteresis in non-clicky Alps SKCM.
In addition, the tactile bump doesn't necessarily correspond to the actuation point. In most switches I've tried, it's possible to either make it bump or make it register without doing the other, if you only press it carefully enough.Clicky switches have hysteresis (release point higher than actuation point) which requires more finger movement for double taps (which you actaully do quite a lot of in typing, there are many words with double letters and of course hitting backspace is a good example) and don't allow you to "hover" on the movement keys in FPS games like you can with linears and tactile switches.

in theory, it makes a difference
in practice, it makes no difference except in a few situations such as rhythm gaming.
you won't notice a difference in gaming between MX reds and buckling springs if you're playing counter-strike, you'd play better or enjoy playing more with what you find comfortable
any switch -> good for gaming, who cares that much about games anyway
red's -> bad for amateur typing, if you rest your fingers even slightly on the keys, mistakes happen very occasionally, I was haunted by a space repetition issue for example
green's -> bad for some games where you need to make quick text/chat comebacks, if your fingers are tired, sometimes you miss some keypresses in that rage, end up not making a comeback, have all that rage explode inside
