What Keyboard Does Shaiiko Use?

Shaiiko's keyboard history

Shaiiko's history is three keyboards in three periods, with two switches between them. He started the timeline with the Logitech G915 TKL Carbon in January 2023 and used it for 7.6 months. In September 2023 he moved to the Wooting 60HE+.

That board became the longest chapter by far: 32.1 months (2.7 years), until May 2026. Since then he has used the Wooting 60HE v2 Silver, now at 5.0 months. He has not gone back to any earlier board.

The last swap stayed inside the Wooting family. Next to the 60HE+, the v2 Silver has the same 60% form factor, the same hotswappable PCB and the same list of switch options. The numbers that differ are small. The v2 Silver is 1 g heavier, 0.1 cm shorter front to back and 0.3 cm wider. It is also 1 cm lower, at 2.8 cm tall against 3.8 cm. So the footprint on the desk is almost the same, and the clearest physical change is the lower profile.

Switches and actuation

The Wooting 60HE v2 Silver is sold with six switch options: Lekker Linear 45 v2, Lekker Linear 60 v2, Lekker Tikken Light, Lekker Tikken Medium, Wooting x TTC KOM and Geon Raw HE. That is a wide range for one board, and the PCB is hotswappable. Switches can therefore be changed without soldering, and the board can be set up with whichever option suits you.

For a Rainbow Six Siege player, this matters because the keyboard handles movement and gadget keys, and feel under the fingers is personal. The Linear options give a smooth press. The two Tikken versions come in Light and Medium variants. The Wooting x TTC KOM and Geon Raw HE round out the list. If you buy the same board, treat the switch choice as the main customization. The case, layout and size stay the same whichever you pick.

Should you buy Shaiiko's keyboard?

The Wooting 60HE v2 Silver is available to buy. It is a 60% board at 30.5 cm wide, 11.5 cm deep and 2.8 cm tall, weighing 606 g. That suits players who want a compact keyboard and a low profile. It also suits anyone who wants to try different switches thanks to the hotswap PCB, and RGB is included.

The alternatives trade off like this:

• Wooting 60HE+ (used by 11 pros right now): the same switch options and hotswap PCB, 1 g lighter, 0.1 cm longer, 0.3 cm narrower and 1 cm taller. It is the board Shaiiko used for 2.7 years.
• SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Black (8 pros): OmniPoint 2.0 switches and a non-hotswappable PCB. It is 4 g heavier, 1.2 cm shorter, 1.2 cm narrower and 1.24 cm taller. It gives a smaller footprint but no switch swapping.
• Razer Huntsman V3 Pro Mini (4 pros): Razer Analog Optical switches and a non-hotswappable PCB. It is 0.1 cm shorter, 0.7 cm narrower and 1 cm taller. It is close in size but less flexible on switches.

If you want the closest match to Shaiiko's setup, pick the 60HE v2 Silver or the 60HE+. The other two are for players who prefer their switch ecosystems and accept a fixed switch.
