New gaming keyboard features Rapid Trigger and Snap Tap reshape competitive play

tomsguide.com

New gaming keyboard features, Rapid Trigger and Snap Tap, are gaining popularity among players. Rapid Trigger allows for faster keypresses by resetting the switch immediately after a key is released, improving response times in fast-paced games. Snap Tap, found on Razer keyboards, prevents simultaneous key presses from canceling each other out. This feature prioritizes the last key pressed, aiding competitive players in executing quick movements without needing to release keys. However, Snap Tap has been banned in Counter Strike 2 due to its competitive advantage, while Rapid Trigger remains acceptable as it relies on adjustable actuation points rather than external software or binds.
