Man, I remember commenting a long time ago on his channel that this hobby might be something for him and he wrote that he doesn't quite think so, crazy how far he's come!

Thanks for this amazing build Alex. Very tasteful! For anyone who wants more details about the Encore, make sure to check the link to my site in the description.

You are extraordinary. Man. I've followed you since you were at Futur until you became an independent designer. And now you have created extraordinary work in the world of Mechanical Keyboards!

Awesome work Matthew!!! Once again coming through with more gorgeous clean aesthetics. I'm here for it! Really wanna get my hands on one of these Encore, but equally as bummed to see that the ones with copper will be sooooo much more expensive

I'm curious, are these extremely beautiful keyboards suitable for gaming, not this one specifically, but more in principle?

is all versions of this board starting at 279 or is the copper bottom versions more expensive? how much is the one alex is building?

@Juramate 26 күн бұрын

The 279 version only comes in black with an option of oak or walnut. The one Alex is showing off with the full copper bottom that comes in green/walnut or white/oak is 529.

Im confused, will the first drop say for a copper variant be 25 or 50? I know it says 50 for green copper but is that total or per drop.

@MatthewEncina 26 күн бұрын

The total amount (500 units of all colors combined) are split evenly between drops.

@leftcoastfunk 25 күн бұрын

I had to laugh at the "more affordable" stabilizers comment cause we'll drop 200-800+ on a board, another hundred (or two) on keycaps, another $30+ on switches, and then fret about whether to pay $12 for stabs or splurge on the $18 ones 🤣🤣🤣

@alexotos 25 күн бұрын

Having used 10 dollar stabs and 25 dollar stabs I can confidently say I never notice a difference on daily use if they are properly tuned. Also I think it’s good to remember people do want to participate in the hobby and not everyone can afford 20 dollar stabs and ever dollar counts.

@leftcoastfunk 25 күн бұрын

@@alexotos yeah no that's totally fair! I wasn't necessarily making commentary about the overall accessability of the hobby as a whole, just had a quick chuckle to myself when you said it. I've also had "cheap" stabs work just as well or better with minimal tuning than some more expensive ones (gmk qmx) Overall I love that the hobby has such a broad array of options these days, and much higher quality on the "budget" end of things than we used to get Cheers 🍻
