12 Days Of Christmas: Razer Starcraft II Gear Set

Comment


Update! We have a winner, who should be receiving an email right about now! Thanks for all the entries, and thanks for reading!

Bonus giveaway because I forgot what day it is!

Got a Starcraft fan in the family? Zerg them with gifts this season courtesy of Razer, whose SCII gear we scoped some time back. They worked with the Blizzard team to make these things extra-appropriate for the game, and there are lots of custom lights, alerts, and macros for making your Starcraft II experience all the more complete.

And what do you have to do to win? Just leave a comment below saying which Starcraft unit you’d like to have as a friend, pet, or ride.

For example: I’d like to have a siege tank. Sure, they’re vulnerable to melee, but I’d like to see someone try to tow me.

Yours doesn’t have to be as awesome as mine, though. The winner will receive one each of the Razer Starcraft II peripherals: the Banshee headset, Marauder keyboard, and Spectre mouse.

Official rules:

  • One comment per person and yes, we can check these things
  • Entries must be in by December 15th, 11:59pm PST.
  • The winner will be chosen randomly
  • Use a valid email address as that’s how we’ll notify the winner
  • US shipping addresses only

Be sure to use your real e-mail address! It will not be shared with anyone, period. It’s just for this contest. Keep your eyes out for more giveaways over the next two weeks and don’t forget about our big Santa item: a gaming rig valued at nearly $2,300. This contest runs through Christmas Eve!
