i made the mistake of buying a lycosa for my first actual gaming keyboard, i sold it for 40bucks to my mother cos she liked the pretty blue lights, thats how shit it was, you can simultaneously press more than a few keys at a time. like when you Sprint in cod you obv hold in W as well as sprint, never tried it with "SHIFT" but it doesnt work if you use CAPSLOCK like i do. get a filco majestouch brah. you wont regret

I got mine off ebay, dude had like 100% good feedback and I got it for like $150 less. Was worth a try haha. Now to sell it for full price

Haha, unlucky there, good luck selling. ;D

Now that I'm used to it, I actually don't mind it- I don't regret buying it as much as I previously did.
There's nothing really that I don't like about it any more.
When I first used it there was a few key things that were annoying as ****.
Compared to my old keyboard, the keys are thinner, so I was constantly making typing errors.
The additional "M keys" on the side were at the edge of the board, and on my old keyboard, esc, tab, caps lock, shift and control were the end of the keyboard; so whilst gaming, if I took my hands off the WASD keys I'd always put them back on in the wrong position.
Rolling over keys was annoying as ****; as I mentioned earlier, crouch jumping was a pain in the neck as I couldn't slide my thumb from the spacebar over to the C key.
My CoD movement was absolutely horrendous for about 4 days because of this and leaning, sprinting etc.
Other than that, I had no problems with it, and to this day do not.
If you want something a little better though, go for a Filco. Most likely a Majestouch, as I've never heard anything negative about them from anyone whose had one.

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...

There's stories like these everywhere about Razer products; they seem to be really inconsistent with build quality, which is really not something a gaming company who wants to make such an impact should have up against their name.
I suppose you could say that I'm lucky that there's nothing wrong with my keyboard, so unless you want to risk it, I'd suggest getting a different kind of mechanical keyboard.
If you wanted the BlackWidow because of the blue LEDs, Ducky also make a mechanical keyboard with blue LEDs, I'd suggest looking into that.
