Gaming and ergonomic keyboards, weirdly enough, don't typically go hand in hand. There are some compromises that ergonomic keyboards need to make in the name of comfort that don't suit most gaming styles. Flat keyboards don't allow users to hold their wrists in natural resting positions, leading to a lot more wrist strain and long-term side effects. On the other hand, most ergonomic keyboards rely on a curve in the middle to get the wrists into a more natural position. However, for users who don't mind a more significant learning curve, there are split keyboards that can put the users' hands almost entirely vertically.
