    There are pros out there - or sick freaks, as we like to call them - who tilt their keyboards to a degree that is, quite frankly, unacceptable.
    To a more untrained eye, this looks ridiculous and painful.
    But, apparently, some people swear by tilted keyboard setups.

    People always miss the main point of why pros do this.
    The single main reason why pros do this is because, the most important thing is how close the monitor is to their eyes. Professional FPS players such as CSGO - tend to have the monitor very close, some players have it a matter of inches away from their face. This is important in games like CSGO where spotting a matter of pixels from an opponent through a smoke can be the difference of winning a round or not.
    In most pro lan tournament the supplied monitors have bulky bases - and are not attached to extendable arms. So if you have a monitor very close to you, and the monitor has a base - you literally have nowhere to put the keyboard other than to the side of the monitor base, in a slanted manner.
    That is the main reason.
    Pros arent like “I want to slant my keyboard because I like it” and that’s the only reason. It’s first and foremost to have the monitor at the optimal distance away from their face. They do this at home to make sure they are used to this setup when they go to pro LANs where they can’t control what the monitor base situation will be like.

    I actually turn my keyboard 45 degrees, because it's a more ergonomic position for my hand to be in when gaming using WASD. When I have it horizontal my wrist has to be bent to use WASD, but when I turn my keyboard a bit, it's in a relaxed position where my wrist is in line with the rest of my arm.

    Saw some people explain it in these comments but this started because of confined table space at LANs.

Sure to those few who had their nose pressed against the monitor maybe but with 10 inches away from monitor, never saw a kb that fat you couldn't be close enough an monitor stand/foot against kb wasn't enough. But I give you that if you had to lean forward arm position would get bad and wasd too close, hence it's a valid thing but iirc it was more side to side with the guy next being too close. Sitting pretty much shoulder to shoulder is rough.

    When you tilt it vertically the distance from each key is still the same, so you arent reaching the keys easier, but you are feeling like you reached them easier. This can also cause a lot of wrist damage over time as it puts strain on muscles near the radius.

      It does make the keys easier to reach. The wrist position is different when tilting keyboard allowing for your thumbs to reach buttons further. It does not cause wrist problems, its the opposite, it keeps the wrist stable, playing normal keyboard is bad for wrist because there is more burden on the wrist when reaching further keys and creates instability. Tilted keyboard keeps yours wrist more stable and arm position locked which gives off less exertion.

    From my Experience. I used to play in net cafe and having a small desk to play. So turning my keeb vertical will give me more space to flick the mouse. And if you're those who like to look very closely to the monitor. The body posture you made when playing like this will feel more comfort than playing with normal horizontal keyboard.

  • @Siko7000

    The argument that you can reach more keys is complete bogus lmao, literally all you do is tilt the keyboard and your hand with it, so the position of the hand relative to the keyboard doesnt even change and thus you cant reach any further. You may be able to have a bit more movement in your elbow but that can also easily be achieved by tilting it in a ~45 degree angle. 90 degrees is way too much tho. Its just hella unnecessary and uncomfortable.

    QWERTY keyboards are actually designed to slow people down primarily because of its history with typewriters

    • @mkv2718
      @mkv2718 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      this isn’t correct. it wasn’t to slow people down, it was to space the ink bars of the most commonly used keys apart so they wouldn’t get jammed up. yes, this happened in an alphabetical layout from typing too fast, but people clearly learned to type just as fast with the qwerty layout, if not faster than before, because they no longer had to worry about their keys getting jammed up.
      so saying the qwerty design was made to “slow people down” is misleading.
      edit: that being said, keyboards were clearly not designed with gaming in mind.

    I like to think of it the same way you would hold a guitar when playing. There's the one you'd originally do, which is put it on your right lap to play, while there's classical stance used in classical guitar playing. You're pretty much cradling the guitar between your thighs, tilting the fretboard diagonally. What this does is it allows you to reach further than usual and is relatively easier on the fingers.

    The 2 main reasons are ergonomics, your wrist doesn’t wasn’t to sit straight and you will have a lot of issues down the line without ANY tilt on your keyboard. The second is space, primarily in old LAN settings when people shared a single table for 3-5 setups you HAD to tilt your keyboard to make sure every player had space.

    What is grass?
    Grass is a common name for a large group of plants that belong to the family Poaceae, which includes about 10,000 species of flowering plants1 Grasses are found in almost every habitat on Earth, from the polar regions to the tropics, and from the mountains to the deserts. Grasses are also very important for human civilization, as they provide food, fodder, fuel, fiber, medicine and many other products and services.
    Characteristics of grasses
    Grasses have some distinctive features that make them different from other plants. Some of these features are:
    Stems: Grasses have hollow stems that are divided into segments by nodes. The nodes are where the leaves attach to the stem. The stem segments between the nodes are called internodes. Some grasses have solid stems, such as bamboo and sugarcane2
    Leaves: Grasses have long and narrow leaves that grow from the base of the stem or from the nodes. The leaves have parallel veins that run along the length of the leaf. The leaves are usually arranged in two rows on opposite sides of the stem. The part of the leaf that wraps around the stem is called the sheath, and the part that extends away from the stem is called the blade. The point where the sheath and blade meet is called the ligule, which can be a thin membrane, a fringe of hairs or absent2
    Roots: Grasses have fibrous root systems that branch extensively and form a dense network of fine roots near the soil surface. The roots help to anchor the plant, absorb water and nutrients, and prevent soil erosion. Some grasses also have rhizomes or stolons, which are horizontal stems that grow underground or along the soil surface and produce new shoots and roots at their nodes. Rhizomes and stolons help grasses to spread vegetatively and colonize new areas2
    Flowers: Grasses have small and inconspicuous flowers that are grouped together in spikelets. A spikelet consists of one or more florets, which are the individual flowers, and two bracts called glumes, which enclose the florets. Each floret has a lemma and a palea, which are two more bracts that surround the reproductive organs. The reproductive organs consist of three stamens (male parts) and a pistil (female part) with two feathery stigmas. The stamens produce pollen grains that are carried by wind to the stigmas of other florets for fertilization. The pistil develops into a seed called a caryopsis, which is enclosed by the lemma and palea2
    The following table summarizes some of the main characteristics of grasses:
    Characteristic Description
    Stems Hollow, segmented by nodes
    Leaves Long, narrow, parallel-veined
    Roots Fibrous, branching
    Flowers Small, grouped in spikelets
    Types of grasses
    Grasses can be classified into different types based on their growth habit, life cycle, morphology or use. Some of these types are:
    Bunchgrasses: These are grasses that grow in tufts or clumps without rhizomes or stolons. They usually have erect stems and leaves that radiate from a central point. Examples of bunchgrasses are wheat, oats, barley and rye.
    Sod-forming grasses: These are grasses that form dense mats or carpets of vegetation with rhizomes or stolons. They usually have creeping stems and leaves that lie flat on the ground or curve upwards at the tips. Examples of sod-forming grasses are bluegrass, bermudagrass and zoysiagrass.
    Annual grasses: These are grasses that complete their life cycle in one year or less. They germinate from seeds, grow vegetatively, produce flowers and seeds, and die within a single growing season. Examples of annual grasses are crabgrass, foxtail and barnyardgrass.
    Perennial grasses: These are grasses that live for more than one year. They can survive unfavorable conditions such as drought, frost or fire by going dormant or losing their aboveground parts. They can regrow from their roots, rhizomes or stolons when conditions improve. Examples of perennial grasses are switchgrass, big bluestem and bamboo.
    Cereal grasses: These are grasses that produce edible grains that are rich in carbohydrates, proteins and vitamins. They are cultivated as staple crops for human consumption and animal feed. Examples of cereal grasses are rice, corn, wheat and millet.
    Forage grasses: These are grasses that provide fodder for grazing animals such as cattle, sheep and goats. They are grown as pastures, hay or silage. Examples of forage grasses are alfalfa, clover and fescue.
    Turf grasses: These are grasses that are grown as ornamental or recreational plants for lawns, parks, golf courses and sports fields. They are selected for their appearance, durability and low maintenance. Examples of turf grasses are Kentucky bluegrass, ryegrass and bentgrass.
    Bamboos: These are grasses that have woody stems that can grow very tall and thick. They are used for construction, furniture, paper, musical instruments and many other purposes. Examples of bamboos are giant bamboo, golden bamboo and lucky bamboo.
    Benefits of grasses
    Grasses have many benefits for humans and the environment. Some of these benefits are:
    Food: Grasses provide food for humans and animals in the form of grains, shoots, rhizomes and leaves. Grasses are the source of most of the world’s calories and proteins. Grasses also produce sugar, oil, starch, alcohol and other products that are used for food or industrial purposes.
    Fiber: Grasses provide fiber for making paper, cloth, rope, baskets and other items. Grasses such as cotton, hemp and flax are grown as fiber crops. Grasses such as bamboo, rattan and reed are used for making furniture, mats and other items.
    Fuel: Grasses provide fuel for heating, cooking and lighting. Grasses such as wood, charcoal and peat are burned directly as fuel. Grasses such as corn, sugarcane and switchgrass are converted into ethanol or biodiesel that can be used as fuel for vehicles or generators.
    Medicine: Grasses provide medicine for treating various diseases and ailments. Grasses such as wheatgrass, barley grass and oat straw are used as herbal remedies or dietary supplements. Grasses such as lemongrass, citronella and vetiver are used as essential oils or aromatherapy.
    Soil conservation: Grasses help to conserve soil by preventing erosion, improving soil structure, increasing organic matter and enhancing water infiltration. Grasses also help to reduce soil salinity, acidity and toxicity by absorbing excess salts, metals and chemicals from the soil.
    Water conservation: Grasses help to conserve water by reducing runoff, evaporation and transpiration. Grasses also help to purify water by filtering sediments, nutrients and pollutants from the water.
    Climate regulation: Grasses help to regulate climate by moderating temperature, humidity and wind. Grasses also help to sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it in their biomass or soil.
    Biodiversity: Grasses help to maintain biodiversity by providing habitat, food and shelter for many animals, insects and microorganisms. Grasslands support a rich diversity of life forms such as mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, butterflies, bees and fungi.
    Conclusion
    Grass is a type of plant that belongs to the family Poaceae. It has distinctive features such as hollow stems, narrow leaves, fibrous roots and small flowers grouped in spikelets. There are many types of grasses based on their growth habit, life cycle, morphology or use. Grasses have many benefits for humans and the environment such as food, fiber, fuel, medicine, soil conservation, water conservation, climate regulation and biodiversity.
