So i had to replace my mouse recently and i thought while i was at it i might iswell get a new keyboard so here i am asking you

Does anyone have one of these "RAZER BLACKWIDOW ELITE MECHANICAL Gaming Keyboard Audio-Out/Mic-In Individually Backlit Keys" i ended up purchasing one and after using a slim keyboard i'm finding it a bit weird to get used to.

just interested your opinion or a general conversation about thing you like and dislike about the keyboard.

I got it, pretty disappointed. Actually VERY disappointed. Half the symbols on the keys are in the wrong place, @ and " are mixed around. same with a few others. Oh and when I push space sometimes left alt goes down with it too.

tjayyy it seems like your keyboard has downs. Pretty sure Blackwidow's aren't meant to be like that...

I had the same issue, I was using an Arctosa before the BlackWidow,
Arctosa and Lycosa are both membrane keyboards, so the keys are lower.
I used to find that crouch jumping was actually painful to do, now it's simple, you just get used to it.

my lycosa keys started smudging after about 2 months, i've heard blackwidows are the better of the razer keyboards though.. wouldn't recommended lycosa.

right now i have tT meka g unit and it smashes the lycosa.

should mention, the audio ports on it make headset sound so much clearer than my onboard sound card.. which i find quite amusing.. shows how shit my PC is lol.

was thinking bout the challanger cause it has a fan at top but decided not to.

I've got a blackwidow and wasn't impressed when within the first week the shift key kept jamming up so got a replacement one... but still i believe there are better keyboards out there...

the previous keyboard i was using is pretty standard kept me going for a few years though it was an logitech ultra flat an amazing keyboard but i figured mechanical keyboards would be pretty sweet so i figured i'd get one that's in a fairly mid - high price range to see how they go after all you end up with what you pay for just hope i don't get 1 of the above problems.
