    I've read a bunch of the comments and it seems like a lot of you don't like the way we eliminated people based off of the appearance (and not the sound) or the fact that we eliminated people who were using clone keycaps.

    Eliminating people based on whether they're using replicas or not is lame, especially when in stock options are only now coming into popularity

    Why do they disregard keyboards that have clone or replica keycaps? I mean they look good and the original ones are overpriced.

    Not gonna lie, this is hard to watch. I watched the last tournament and I really liked it, so I clicked on this one with expectation but a little disappointed this time. I understand Betty’s points and how time consuming it can be to do a tournament. But if you want to do it, do it well, and don’t complain about the process. You can always find other ways to do good deeds to the community. This is just too subjective to be called a tournament, and unfair to those got eliminated just based on appearances. To me, this tournament is not well prepared at all; nothing but an endeavor for views, likes, and subscriptions.

    How is Hipyo going to sit here and bag on people buying clones when he has holes in his shirt.

    I think they should've done it the other way around, eliminating based on the sound first before taking a look at the board

    Bruh can't believe you guys were so rude and disrespectful towards your fans. Super disappointing. I'll do myself a favour and show myself out of your community 😅

    Don’t think they should have eliminated the boards based off of looks cos some of them could have been sleepers and having them look boring could have been the point

    I honestly didn’t like this tournament compared to the last one. I feel like the judge system creates some weird takes. Definitely liked the chat vote from last time better.

    Why so much hate for the clones? Not everyone can afford to spend $200+ on keycaps

  • @bear532

    Having different key switches for keys is NOT cursed, it’s all of YOU that are weird. Let me explain, I have had multiple keyboards and frankly ended up just using one because switching is too much of a hassle, I’m lazy ok. I program so I want switches that feel nice to type on, so tactile or clicky it is , don’t care about the sound, just the feel. I’m also a gamer and so use specific keys extremely frequently. For keys that I spam and use for attacks/movement they’re linear and quiet for obvious reasons (my gamer friends don’t want to listen to keys the entire time). Also, depending on how frequently I spam them/how important it is not to fat finger a press, I will use different weights. Functional gaming keys though that are used less often (like flashlight or map for example) have quiet tactile switches. Function keys in general use heavier switches because it makes sense. Like I have a single box navy as an esc key because that’s how an esc key should feel. See, you guys are the weird ones using all the same switches as if every key is exactly the same.

    Hey, love this type of video

    I could understand some of the distain for clones if GMK sets actually had QC and were available in stock. But as it is telling people they're bad and dismissing them for not paying $500 for bits of plastic they don't even know if they'll like is pretty elitist.

    honestly i felt like this competitoin was super subjective in favor of the judges, the chat vote feature from last tourney was better, that way keyboards didn't have to conform to what the judges felt was good ie: "thocky," no clones boards

    Sorry I missed throwing my hat into the ring here, but it’s fun seeing all the unique & interesting builds people entered into the competition!

    LOL, that desk mat is from LTT.

    Great watch! Since there seem to be some debate, maybe just clarify that clones are a no go next time. (I would also support that decision for the reasons you named.) I’m in favor of you guys deciding and just using chat when in doubt. I’m watching you being the jury and not chat.

    I dont think it was fair to eliminate someone with clones. But in the end its out of pure taste. So its the judges decision. Love the vid!!

    all of the builds in this video are 10x times better than every Hipyo Tech build
