Why Is Every Pro Switching to This Keyboard?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 май 2023
- Every gaming peripheral company will tell you that their product is the best. They’ll all say that it gives you some type of advantage that you can’t get from their competitors.
They’ll claim that their creations are faster, lighter, have better battery life - and the list goes on.
So, would you believe me if I told you that there is a keyboard out there that can legitimately make you better at games like Counter-Strike and Valorant?
That’s exactly what Wooting are claiming. They’ve created some of the industry’s fastest, most-innovative boards - and many pros have already made the switch.
But is it true? Can their keyboard actually give you an edge over your opponents?

We're very excited that the esport scene is naturally using our keyboards due to an honest advantage. It's much appreciated you shared more about the backstory, since we wouldn't be around or get to this point without the support of many others believing in what we were working on.
wooting plz speedup uwuting production
Oh shit it's the real channel
Could you make a TKL version plsss ?
TKL pls
Are you guys planning a TKL version of the keyboard? I'd love to get my hands on one of your kb but I honestly can't stand the 60% form factor
After using the wooting 60he, my life changed completely. I married the love of my life, I now have a high paying job and my kids can finally go to college. Thank you wooting
Wooting is love, wooting is life

Life changer keyboard. Buy within the offer to get maximum benefits.
u would not believe the things this keyboard alone has done for high-level osu gameplay
fps doesnt even scratch the tip of what the wooting can do, i mean merami had it for two days and set the pp record
the unreal part is every person i've known to get the keyboard has skillboosted because of it (some in std some in taiko even a few in mania), can vouch myself since i got one a couple months back
Osu was crazy but the shit that happened in the trackmania community is just insane.
I've ordered the uwu so surely I'll stop being shit when it arrives (I wont)
Alright bro
I got my wooting 60he like 3 weeks ago and my life changed forever. Currently it is the best.
As a csgo lvl 10 for years, and someone who just got a Wooting 60he, I can confirm it's game changer
Hi can i ask you something, do you still need to press the opposite key when counter strafing? Or do you only need to let go off the key you're peeking with.
@@Rafael-pe6yg once you “depress” the button, your movement stops
@@Rafael-pe6yg In csgo, you need to press the opposite movement key to be accurate
what about function buttons, does it bother you that there is no console "~" button? TKL version would be way way better
@@shockat5070 you are saying this as if it was a fact, not a matter of preference.
I for one, prefer 60% keyboards, and I’m not alone.
They will have a TKL version SOON(tm) tho
One small gripe I have is everyone calling it a pressure sensor, when its a hall effect sensor. Difference is that pressure sensors use newtons to see how much pressure is being pushed onto the keys, but hall effect sensors measure a difference in voltage between a magnets and a plate of metal with voltage going through it.
Yes, I am a nerd, deal with it
Sometimes you just gotta roll your eyes knowingly and accept that some people need things explained in a different or simpler way to grasp it. :)
Thanks for the extra detail, that's really cool
bro had to reach the essay word limit
They measure the same thing.
Hall effect sensors technically measure distance, but the distance a switch travels on a keyboard exclusively depends on the pressure applied to it.
No other variables at play.
So in this context, they measure pressure. Pressure sensors.
@@sthego3970 The spring is the pressure, the hall effect sensor measures the distance. It's still just a distance sensor, the spring is there to give resistance, not to be measured in terms of force
im not a high level fps player, but honestly i bought into the hype and got one. The fact that you can modify this and make it your own is a huge selling point too. it doesnt have to look like a 'gaming keyboard' - one night of work and i put the pcb into a tofu60, lubed everything, and swapped the caps for pbt shinbun. you can have the best of both worlds with a 'custom' board added with the tech of wooting
I just really want Wooting to release a TKL keyboard already, I need those arrow and F-keys
U have them u just gotta push another button first
@@iN_O_O_B_Y so in other words you dont
U just hold down the function button and have all those buttons. I have had no issues doing it
use the function button for the shift mode, you dont really miss out on anything tbh
@@iN_O_O_B_Y that's not an option for certain games that i play. I use virtually every button on the left side of the keyboard already, many shift and control modifiers, and actually use f1-4. sad
I've had mine for about 6 months, modded it as well and yeah, it's feels like cheating. It's objectively better than any other keyboard for gaming. Like no question.
@@sydvicious2378 Did you watch the video?
@@sydvicious2378yes
the movement. But i disgree it's not "almost cheating" i say these cause people expect to buy these and become a better player with pro like moviment but nah. it's just more fluid. i'm stil Plat, the keyboard won't make me a Immortal/Radiant.
@@dark3rthanshadows The keyboard won't make you a pro obviously, but it's just objectively better then a "normal" keyboard. It's actually, quite literally cheating. Just not by a big margin.
@@dark3rthanshadows Exactly. People are gonna buy this and expect to be at a higher level than before. Too many people buy things to help them vs break down what they really need to fix in thier skill.
For anyone wondering, wooting is working on a tkl version and are making their own aluminum case for the wooting 60he in case you guys are planning on modding it. But there are a lot of 60% cases already out there you can use.
That's the beauty of 60% keyboards. There's a lot of cases you can choose
I really hope the TKL version will come soon, 60% is an horrible form factor. You can realistically use it with ease in gaming only, for everything else is just a pain in the ass.
Can't wait to try the TKL once it's out. Been eyeing the 60 but can't live without the extra keys that TKL provides.
Tested the 60HE from my friend and it was definitely a HUGE potential to improve movement for my end.
just saying. steelseries has the same tech in their apex pro - no ad btw.
@@JaLoEx I think wooting just does it better.
I’ve been with wooting 60 for 3 months now. It’s definitely the best gaming keyboard you can buy. And it comes pretty close to a good custom keyboard in terms of build quality, sound, etc. I swapped the case, re-lubed the switches (didn’t even touch stabz) and it’s perfect now.
Custom keyboard is such a loose term. While you can decent sound it still far from endgame. I enjoy mine for gaming, but in comparison to my other customs it lacks ‘personality’.
so how exactly does it affect cs movement, do you still have to counterstrafe to get 0 velocity or is it "instant"?
@@maximilianpetrov8176 yes, you will still have to counterstrafe to a complete stop as you carry some momentum after you release the key. It is more of a game thing rather than a keyboard thing.
I'm a complete mod keyboard noob did you just buy a case or get one machined?
@@anuragdaimary2096 so the game advantage of the woorting is the fact that u dont have to "pre" strafe when peeking a corner as the input is pretty much instant compared to other keyboards where the actuation point is way lower?
This would be so cool on a mouse as well. Games like Destiny 2 have some really cool details you can only see when barely pressing the triggers. I’ve also always hated not being able to control my speed with m&k when compared to controller. It’s harder to safely peak when your character takes a whole step out instead of a half step.
Yeah there is no "walk" modifier key in Destiny 2, so there's no way to move slower than a jog.
Plus I'm guessing one of the things you're referring to is seeing a double-action revolver's action slowly advance when you pull the trigger partway :D
It's always good to know that there are people who try to push the limit making the hardware better even though it is most likely going to be bought by less people.
Hey {{3}}, I recently came across the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule and it's been a game-changer for keeping my desk clean and my keyboard spotless. The powerful blowing function and multiple accessories make it versatile for various cleaning tasks. Definitely worth checking out!
if they make a 75% version of this id pay good money for it
being able to finely tune when I get a key-up seems like a killer feature for a fighting game input device. I'd love to put these switches in my leverless controller, but it sounds like I need the pcb from the keyboard involved too, Sadge
Amazing, an actual review, with actual info, and not driven by affiliate links. Thanks for making the internet a bit better.
i wonder if we might get to a point where analog keyboards become a norm and people start using/building hotswap keyboards for certain switches. i imagine if analog becomes a standard then soon there will be an option for all games to have a certain level of keyboard pressure that switches a character from walking to running for example (kinda like a controller deadzone i guess?). in this case, i can already imagine serious gamers or enthusiasts using different switches for say w-a-s-d or even spacebar to achieve the best feel and control for smooth, linear movement while also having the fastest, lightest switches for other keys for their mechanical advantages.
Got the wooting about 2 months ago. It's insane. The customization is what makes the difference for me.
If I hovered my fingers over I feel like it would activate too early but set certain keys to how I feel it should feel to me. I feel this should be the new standard automatically when it comes to a high end keyboards 🤞
Hey there! As a fellow tech enthusiast, I highly recommend checking out the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule. It's a compact device with powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities. With features like multiple tubes, high-quality filters, and swift keyboard cleaning, it's perfect for maintaining a spotless desktop setup. Plus, it's versatile and portable, making it great for car interiors and outdoor activities too. Give it a try, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it!
Me, who can afford it but lives in a 3rd world country.
So it's not Logitech or Razer or some Chinese brand? I guess it doesn't exist then.
Putting the mic down on the table the keyboard is actually on also (or mounting it on the table), creates a bunch of rumble on the audio tracks while hitting the keyboard.
Hopefully this helps you adjust in the future.
imagine if racing games benefitting the potentio wasd. you can get response time and precision gas brake input with lower travel time. this is interesting
Really excited about these keyboards, been waiting to buy one for so long. Hopefully, they'll make a tkl one soon as those are the only layout I'll use.
I'm glad I bought mine some weeks ago... if the hype will continue like that, they might have very limited shipping times in the future (in the EU it should be still fine, but who knows).
I have a wooting 60he, got it very early into the hype
I can never go back, wooting just did everything so well. Support team, software, everything feels calculated and perfected
I believe it was 3kliksphilip who spoke about analog keyboards on CSGO quite a few years ago, he showed how you can set the input to a throttled running speed that's noticeably faster than the normal walking speed but remains completely silent. I'm surprised they didn't blow up immediately after that was found out then again they were not as easily accessible.
I remember exactly two years ago getting hyped af for the fullsize model and people calling me crazy, but here we are
A wooting keyboard in osu is like adding a +10 to your max streaming/burst bpm
As soon as mine arrived it went into a Tofu 60 Acrylic with silicone mod, lubed the switches and used custom pudding light weight pudding double shot pbt keys
nerd lol
The wooting effect has begun to evolve.
Thanks for the recommendation with the movement keys vs all others. It makes perfect sense and I'll give it a try on my apex pro.
Wooting keyboard exploded onto the scene of literally every game I play, genuinely gamechanging keyboard that everyone should try, good for literally every single game and makes you better.
Been using the wooting 60 HE for almost a year now as a software engineer. Best keyboard I’ve ever owned hands down. Their keyboard Utility software is good, too.
a few years ago i wondered if anyone would finally create an analogue keyboard
There already were for years
Its like the Phob gamecube controllers for Melee. They use the hall effect as well. Magnets bro
There’s literally no way they went this entire video without mentioning how much the osu community did for this keyboard 😂
^^^^^^
Thanks for saving my time. Looks like I don’t need to watch this lol
Ikr everyone on osu went fucking crazy for this keyboard
tqtq broo !
Hey, I've been using the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule for a while now and it's been a game-changer for keeping my desk and keyboard clean. The powerful blowing feature is a big plus, and the vacuuming capability is impressive too. Highly recommend it for maintaining a spotless workspace! 👌🖥️
Typing this on a Wotting60HE rn. It is great. Rapid trigger is great, but honestly I wouldnt just spend 200 bucks for that. The versitility of the software is a huge bonus and makes it totally worth the price. Only slight annoyance is that Wootility doesnt work on Firefox
Can't believe that osu, the game that arguably got impacted the most because of the wooting keyboard, didn't get mentioned at all
Was expecting the pricing to be high, but its actually not too bad.
Wooting still on top.. but Steel series apex pro range with the update now having rapid trigger is a very very close second.
i bought a wooting one pretty early on back in 2018, was my main for several years. a good keyboard overall. i was having some issues with keys getting stuck eventually and things repeating occasionally which lead me to move on to try other kb. was a good kb overall though and really appreciated that they were doing something different and offering a fairly new product basically. innovation is pretty much always a good thing, even if there are some bumps along the way. this vid makes me want dust the ole girl off and give it another go, maybe a thorough cleaning and new software will help fix some of the issues.
I've had absolutely ZERO complaints about my 60he. If you're considering one - stop thinking and just buy it.
Movement is one of my biggest complaints for clearly mouse favored fps. In fact, that's generally how I separate them: those that are highly movement based feel better on a controller, and those that are high speed precision aim feel better on a mouse. I see this as a huge step forward, though I really think we need some kind of a great mouse + 1 handed movement controller scheme.
Seeing all these tech reviewers and keyboard content creators was cool since I recognized pretty much all of them, which might be a little crazy lol
oh god the wooting apocolyse is truely in full flow now.
From osu! top players hiding this to it becoming HUGE for pros in any esports.
the journey from osu to track mania to everywhere.
It's weird to see a video about a keyboard and not see people type with it and review that as well xD
what other keyboards have fastest actuation and response time close to wooting? any other options?
How does this work with tap-strafing in apex and titanfall?
This would Solve the Steering Problem in Racing games, you can now control How much you want to rotate the steering wheel. Revolutionary 💕💕
Yes I love it for Forza !
It is a great compromise for anyone who isn't quite ready to invest in a full steering wheel setup for sure. I've used it for Wipeout, NFS and other racers for years.
I bought mine back when they had their first shipment out and I've been loving it its amazing
I remember how this keybosrd was originally only known by osu players and now everyone is using it. Its a great keyboard
when i got the wooting i knew strange away this keyboard was built diff i noticed that i was making a lot of mistakes like the keyboard was to fast took a bit to get used to
I wish wooting would make a tkl version
got mine. Now when I lose, I need to blame my headset or mouse...
Bro, check the HDMI cable, it is always them
YOU GUYS MUST MAKE AN UPDATE VIDEO ON THE XQC FORSEN MC SPEEDRUN
Is there a full sized keyboard that is the same as the 60HE?
I love my custom boards but if wooting releases a TKL or 75% I am buying it.
Ive been using the k70 pro tkl (opx). And I like really like it, its very fast.
Also they give 4 year warranty, that is a really nice deal for 178 euros
Im confused, how can you control movement speed in valorant even with the analog switches? Like, how is that possible in a game like valorant or csgo? I can understand the witcher, because its also a controller useable game, which means it would have joystick-like movement in game with this keyboard. But Valorant and CSGO are capable of having dynamic walking speeds? Weird
In valo and CS you need to “strafe”. Regular keyboards have switches that require a certain amount of movement before they can register the next click. Wooting doesn’t need this. Once you depress the key, you can press it once again. It makes your strafe easier, more natural and quicker
This is still true - But these games aren't using this functionality of "faking" a controller for analog movement. They're taking advantage of the switch reading inputs on a curve instead of a static 0 or 1, which allows for features like rapid trigger and adjustable actuation. :)
I think you can control walk speed in CS with a controller. I played with a mouse and controller in my left hand due to a wrist injury. You have to go into steam big picture mode and set the left joystick to "joystick move" instead of wasd.
its impacted so many games players its crazy
The wooting is amazing for siege and csgo players where footsteps need to be quiet but fast ifykyk
Can someone tell me how it is for just typing? I do more than game and am worried about how small it looks. Does it hurt your wrists if not gaming?
Bro loves his custom
The OSU community was a big reason why this keyboard was able to be popular
ive got the wooting 60HE for about 3 months now (EU Maan) and the keyboard is straight out of the box perfect. the switches feel very light compared to my old xtrfy k2.
nothing needs to be modified. but its a option. there are missing buttons but later after you use that %60 keyboard you get used to it.
together with the razer DA v3 its brutal.
but if you think you are going to win every match in csgo with this keyboard you are wrong. csgo is still a team shooter. solo q is terrible no matter which gear you will use.
I love my 60HE cant believe how well it performes
This is the board you can fast walk with right. Like sneak while being faster than just holding shift?
So I just recently bought an apex pro tkl is the benefits of this keyboard actually worth switching??
Never heard of this Company before this video
i think that i'll end up going for the two he when i get one due to the numpad being more comfortable for fighting games
I remember opening my wooting and in those first 5 seconds in game... I was like yup.... can't use anything else
What's stopping them from selling just the PCB and switches that work with custom 60% or TKL keebs? Doesn't seem too difficult on an electronics level to make this available to custom keeb builders.
It's funny you should ask. We are bringing a case/keycap-less 60HE to market this year. As well as our own Alu case to help the "out of stock" issue with 60% alu cases.
thought this video would be about piano keyboards. dissapointed. I have still subscribed, as the young man with the glases reminds me of my son, Goyle.
Ah!
the point of the keyboards for gamers which it meets, not at high end keyboard enthusiasts such as myself and others deep into the hobby
Wootings are illegal in Trackmania Nations Forever; if you want to know more wirtual did a video on it and how the company came to the decision to outlaw it. I think it's possible that this comes to more games, this isnt just a well built devices, this is a different style of input all together in some scenarios.
I thought wooting is legal for TM, Wirtual and Soulja use it for TM2020, its just locking to specific analog values (so custom action keys) is illegal, same can be done for gamepads with dxtweak.
@@Timotheus19 Sure that is technically a more accurate statement, but at what point are we being pedantic? The gamechanging feature of the wooting is illegal in TM (to the best of my understanding); If my understanding is wrong, feel free to let me know, thats just how it seemed to me.
@@AceChippmunk the benefits of wooting keyboard in FPS are different than TM, in FPS the main benefit is with its upstroke, where the user can quickly reset the key before the key is fully released, which helps with strafing and jiggle peaking, as soon as you let go of the key your keypress stops, in valorant and cs people don't really use the analog input feature but the quick reset feature
as i understand it, in TM is more about setting custom analog input limits beyond the 20/40/60/80%, wooting lets you set any arbitrary % in the firmware without the need of software running in the background, which is considered cheating
@@AceChippmunkIt is completely legal to use an analog keyboard in TM to benefit from better reaction time / lower latency (or however you want to call it) as well as being able to "manually" steer between 0% and 100%, as long as you don't set keys so that they reproduce an exact analog value when you press them.
What you said is wrong. Nadeo banned locking a key to a specific value. Wooting is still legal without those. Like using the wooting as a controller
9:52 I laughed seeing CG, was not expecting that.
Shooting needs to make a low profile version.
Hoping for a TKL that is 'bunched up' so that it's barely bigger than a 60%
Keyboard video go thock
wooting needs a pcb only version
Got my wooting. And honestly its goated. I use custom mech keyboards but whenever i wanna play csgo or osu i always switch to the wooting i modded. It's especially noticeably bettee at rhythm games like osu. And helped me reach Faceit lvl 10
i dreamed of analog keyboards for years LOL
Have they made changes to the way the keyboard sounds since this video? My 60HE just arrived and it sounds a lot better than in the video.
DO YOU REALIZE HOW LITERALLY ACOUSTIC YOU SOUND JUDGING A KEYBOARD ON THE SOUND IT MAKES.
their new keypad raised 500k dollars on a community thats like 400k players big(osu) so the rapid trigger in the games where you need to have max control and speed - is a game changer. the keypad( 3 fucken keys) cost 50 dollars btw
Got mine for Apex movement tek and the option to use the analog movement for single player game and its by far my favorite gaming purchase
Ive had this for about 9 months. Its one of the best purchases ive made. It looks and feels brilliant while having the best hardware and software avaliable
I love my wooting 60he! Theres no better keyboard out there for that price
Finally it's true that pressing W or up arrow key makes you go faster😃
talking about the wooting without mentionning osu! ...
I can imagine this tech being very useful in CS 1.6 Kreedz climbing somehow? 😮
It’s the best apex keyboard for sure and I have 5 custom keyboards that cost me way too much. Being able to set different actuation for super gliding is elite
wow now osu keyboards are even taking over the fps scene wyld
CS2 may give this keyboard more popularity as compared to now!
this keyboard has literally changed high-level osu its insane
True that
you will see wooting keyboards shine the brightest on clicky games like osu
i use a wooting 60he honestly its good but dont expect it to make you good at cs instantly its just more comfy and feel smooth to straf but its not magic right
Just curious if there are any world game troops are using wooting keyboard during the championship?
Not just for valo and csgo but for apex its also really good, been using it for couple weeks and I love it !! Had a ducky one 2 mini before this and I can tell the difference, very good keyboard :)
I like how the keyboard in the thumbnail looked like a butcher's knife
How have I missed this keyboard?!
Oh yeah I cant wait to get my new 9000hz polling, 9000hz refresh rate, 0ms response time, 0ms ping setup to replace my 8000hz polling, 8000hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, 1ms ping setup ! I'm definitely hard stuck in silver elo hell because of my current setup.
