Although DeadlySlob has never been a pro, his skills have still earned him a following of over 270,000 Twitch followers for a good reason. So its worth noting the equipment that makes up Deadlyslob’s setup for gaming and stremaing.
Deadlyslob is known for his quick reflexes, chat interaction during games and shooting skills, especially headshots and sniping. He grew up playing video games with his brothers and has been streaming since 2006, when he began creating World of Warcraft content for YouTube. He only really started to grow around 2015 after being inspired to create more consistent and varied content by watching other content creator’s videos. In 2016, he switched to DayZ content, which marked the beginning of his real growth, as well as the evolution of his channel into a survival and fps channel over a WoW content channel.

However, this is not an RGB keyboard, but rather has the option of white backlighting. The brightness can be adjusted through a button on the keyboard itself. There is an additional key at the top of the keyboard that allows the Windows key to be disabled during gameplay.
There are three macro keys on which to program the G-Keys, with a fourth macro recording button located beside them. Each G-key can be programmed with a set of multiple keystrokes. The keyboard has high sensitivity due to its 26-key rollover capabilities that enables it to pick up multiple keystrokes at once. It also comes with a detachable wrist rest.
