1 | razer™

The Razer BlackWidow Tournament Edition was designed for gamers looking for a

mechanical gaming keyboard that delivers only the key gaming features to winning, in

an ultra-minimalist setup.

Like the rest of the critically acclaimed Razer BlackWidow line-up, the core feature of

the Tournament Edition keyboard is its Blue switch mechanical key infrastructure.

Crisp, distinctive tactile feedback at the fingertips, rapid-fire keystroke actuations faster

than an opponent can react, and improved anti-ghosting, makes this the only keyboard

to match the unrelentingly fast reflexes and instincts of the best pro-gamers.

Stripped of its numpad, the Razer BlackWidow Tournament layout is light and highly

compact. The macro keys have also been removed to adhere to tournament

regulations. This makes it perfect for gamers with limited desk space, or chooses to

carry their own keyboard to LAN parties and tournaments - the only keyboard they

trust to lay the necessary smackdown to winning. The braided USB cable can also be

detached for extra portability, and locked into place on the keyboard to ensure a

robust setup that can take a beating during intensive gaming sessions.

The BlackWidow Tournament Edition also offers superior anti-ghosting, supporting up

to 10 simultaneous key presses in gaming mode, compared to 3 in standard keyboards.

This ensures that in the heat of the battle, each and every of your commands are

executed accurately and perfectly.

Take home the victory with the Razer BlackWidow Tournament Edition – designed for

maximum function, minimal fuss.
