Title: The Most Popular mkb/brands Among Pro-Gamers!!
Post by: leech on Wed, 17 May 2017, 15:07:03
Oops, thread posted on wrong forum  ;D



Naah seriously, if anyone has well-researched info on this topic, it would be interesting to know which models or brands the pro-gamers use or cherish.

Afaik most (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamer#Professional_gamer) pro-gamers come from Corea Japan and Chinas. So what do they use, FLICO, MOTOSPEED or REALFORCE?

i have no idea . i am clueless (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RS0KyTZ3Ie4)  :-X

They use whoever gives them money so I bet on Razer, Corsair, Logitech and Coolermaster.

So the eSports pro gamers are not mkb geeks like us who prefer and buy PBT keycaps?

Steelseries Razer Corsair Logitech Coolermaster they all come with cheap thin ABS keycaps afaik.

I know Leopold and Filco were popular with Korean SC2 players. However Pros will for the most part use whatever if they're paid to so you'll see alot of razer and corsair and such.

PBT is not better than ABS, they're different materials and have different qualities.

The overall quality of a keyset has much more to do with the design and production of the keycaps than the material.
