Collection as of 1 1/2 months into the game:
- Poker 2 w MX Clears
- Vortex PBT Doubleshots with a rogue Poker PBT Enter (came with the board)
- SA Modern Selectric
- Random Maplin wire since no wire came with the board
Poker 2 vs Scissors switches:
- Heavier - I quite like the rubber dome's weight. Thinking about doing ergo-clears
- Further travel
- Tactile feedback on accentuation
Poker 2 x Clears:
- Plastic case, put some padding inside to mute it more
- Tactile bump is big, so I don't bottom out often
- Loss of dedicated arrows keys not a big deal
- Damn solid piece of keeb cake
- I still don't get the Pn key... halp
- The backspace is a pain in the ass to press so many times (rip typing)
- Pings sometimes
Vortex PBT DS + MX Clears:
- Snappy and fast - clack!
- FeelsGoodMan - the matte/grainy texture feels great on the (sweaty) fingers
- Dodgy POM shine-through - not the same as your normal gaymer caps, these looks weird in low light
- Profile is nice, really like how the keys are shaped - probably time to get GMK?
SA ABS DS Modern Selectric + MX Clears:
- FeelsLessGoodMan - the tactility is reduced, somehow makes it feel really different. I imagine it'd feel better on linears
- Sounds different from the Vortex, a deeper sound, a cloock sound not a clack
- High profile, quite a bit higher than Vortex (OEM)
- The smooth surface means if you have sweaty fingers it will feel a bit less slippery/a bit more sticky
- SA looks very good and the quality is good too
