Ok. So I'm looking for a keyboard and mouse combination. I really would like to get a mechanical keyboard,but, I'm not 100% sure that it provides a huge help. I currently use my brothers keyboard when I play DotA(Often but not always). He has a Logitech G110 keyboard. I love this one but I'm not sure I want to buy one if there is something else out there just as good if not better for a decent price.
Now for the mouse. I also use my brothers mouse as of now. He has a Logitech G700. I love this mouse to death. Absolutely amazing in my opinion,but, again I'm open for ideas. If there is something better I can look into let me know. I really need to get my own stuff so I can void out the annoyance of having the unconnect and reconnect things. Try and keep the price down though, I'm not looking to spend $300 on a mouse and keyboard combination. Thanks everyone!

Mouse-Razer Deathadder. I have this mouseand I love it, its very comfortable for a long duration and is $70 at the razer store but newegg,amazon etc should have it cheaper. It makes a click sound like a mechanical keyboard and the right and left buttons are grooved so your fingers fit riight along it. The mouse also looks badass

Keyboard-Corsair K60/90. The K60 is an fps mechanical keybaord with an wrist rest while the K90 is a more RTS based with macro keys. This more depends on which type fits you whether you want red,blue,brown or black switches.

I'm using a Saitek Eclipse 2 keyboard, just got one to replace my older Saitek Eclipse that I had for about 8+ years. It still works but I'm starting to see the crumbs and carcasses of dead cockroaches D:!

The mouse I use is a Razor Naga Molten Edition, good mouse for both MMO and DOTA. Initial bought it for WoW when I was still playing it and now use it to bind buttons, saves a lot of hassle :)

Razer naga is by far the best mouse for MOBA'S. In fact, razer tech is pretty much the best. for headsets thogh TURTLE BEACH's are really good. I use my laptops default keyboard. Which Is an acer aspire.

I have heard the blackwidow(regular) has alot of problems with the keys and being unresponsive. For a headset I have the vengeance 1500s which are really nice. They are comforatble and fit around your years and the padding on top is very thick and nice. The only problem is it is a little on the heavy side. Nagas are nice for MOBA's but do ou really need 12 keys? I think the Naga with 6 keys is probably better but razer synapse is really bad(and thats putting it nicely)especially for nagas. If Razer fixes up their software problems and customer support, they could be a better company.

I wouldn't know I have the mirror finish led backlit one.

My previous board, Razer Lycosa had some issues with the Media Centre Control buttons messing around and randomly skipping or playing Music but it could be fixed within the Razer Configuration Software.

The only thing synapse gave me was a ton of headaches. Have you checked out the Cyborg RAT series? the RAT 3 is around 40-50 although it is more FPS based, you can probably still customize it for dota.
