According to a Kinesis employee statement in 2012, this prompted a request from the owner of Kinesis to Cherry to create a tactile, low-force switch without the ‘clicky’ sound that comes as a result of the click jacket on MX Blue switches. And thus, the response from Cherry were the very first MX Brown switches. If not I’d suggest the red gaterons (very similar, a lot quieter, definitely not as tactile/clicky). I have the brown gaterons, love them, but are generally louder than the apple butterfly keyboards and the other 2 gateron profiles. I generally use they keyboard for work and very light gaming (emulator games). Hope that helps! Red Switches: Linear switches with no tactile bump and no audible click.

So brown is the more popular switch for sc2. However I use a linear switch (black) which is pretty much a firmer version of red and I personally don't have a problem with it. Outemu Regular Switches: Regular mechanical keyboard switches come in a variety of types, including Blue, Red, Brown, Black, Green, Orange, Purple, Silver, Gold, Golden Pink, Sky, and Ocean switches which are appreciated for their tactile feedback, offering a distinct bump or resistance at the actuation point, enhancing typing accuracy.
