This creates quite an appreciative sense of 'wow, this is actually quite sweet!'. It became apparent that you can't really see through your hands to appreciate all that work gone into creating your own custom lighting at first, but once you get a glance at your controls in the middle of a game to reset your hand position, we found things click in your head and everything just makes sense. Once we moved through various games including DOTA 2, and Dying Light, the BlackWidow TE Chroma just felt solid. There didn't seem to be any issue with rapid actuations though if you do not release a key far enough the keys 'click' doesn't seem to reset, however, this didn't affect performance. Some felt lighter or stronger but once you get used to it, it almost felt like a unique fingerprint that says 'I feel like this'. We repeated a typing speed test several times and the Razer switches can feel a little inconsistent with the actuation force required.

Considering that the RRP of the BlackWidow Tournament Edition Chroma is around £15 less than the full version, some may simply prefer to sacrifice a numpad for a small saving. Of course you do not need to be either to enjoy this product but many may see no need to go for a Tenkeyless (TKL) keyboard in a static situation. Other than this, the general aesthetic is sleek and relatively minimalistic (until powered up), the inclusion of the main carry case and a focus on the compact size really helps this target professionals and LAN gamers that move around often. The Razer BlackWidow Chroma V2 features individually programmable backlit keys with 16.8 million color options, all easily set through Razer Synapse. Together with detachable USB cable, Razer BlackWidow Tournament Edition Stealth gives you all the essential keys in a sleek, compact form, perfectly suited for your gaming needs on-the-go. Though the keycaps aren't covered in the same finish, you may find yourself having to rub the frame down one in a while. The Razer BlackWidow Chroma is manufactured in-house end to end, ensuring even stricter requirements are met for each switch produced, resulting in a lifespan of up to 80 million keystrokes. With built-in anti-ghosting technology, Razer BlackWidow Tournament Edition Stealth lets you perfectly execute up to ten commands at the same time, every time. It leeches oil from your fingertips and palms leaving grubby smudges and almost forces you to recognise that you in fact sweat from your hands too. I have never really outright enjoyed the feel of 'rubberised coatings' some range from soft and acceptable, some feel like you are stroking wool as found here. The soft feel material though may split decisions. The small frame at the front keyboard did little to get in the way of your hands. In typing tests I found that the keycaps felt strong and there was no comfort issue.
