Counterstrike pros do a lot of things that seem weird at first, like playing low resolution 4:3 on a 16:9 monitor, with black bars on the sides. That seems ridiculous until you consider that they don't actually need that extra field of view (since if an opponent catches you looking away, you'll lose), and it makes player models larger on screen. As far as keyboards, I believe most of them are using full size keyboards, not even tenkeyless, because they need the number pad for buy binds. Also, many of them rotate their keyboard slightly clockwise. I'm not exactly sure why, but it does get rid of ulnar deviation as well as take up less room on the desk.

The reason I've always heard for that is that desk space on LAN tournaments used to be pretty limited so they had to rotate their keyboards like that in order to fit them, and now they're just doing it out of habit. And I get that buy binds are convenient but it doesn't seem worth the extra desk space, especially not when there are many other unused keys that can be used for buy binds instead.
