Why Do Pros Tilt Their Keyboards?

You’ve probably found yourself watching a tournament stream, admiring the homies as they toss out fist bumps in between rounds, taken a quick look at their desks and wondered, quite understandably, why are their keyboards so tilted?

The crazy thing is that it almost doesn’t matter what shooter you’re watching: CS:GO, VALORANT, Siege, Overwatch, and yes, even Fortnite. Virtually every aimer worth their salt can be spotted rotating their keyboard to varying degrees of insanity.

The question, again, is just . . . why?!

Maximizing space. Improving focus. Gaining access to additional keys. Competitors have spent well over a decade experimenting with, and touting the benefits of, tilting. What started as a result of necessity has since become the standard for FPS’ sickest, sweatiest savants.

But does angling your elbow really make you better, or is it just some silly, outdated posture that edgy e-gamers put on for show? Also, is it kind of, like, super bad for you?
