If you're primarily using it for RTS/MoBA games, there's zero reason to buy a headset. it would sound so much better on a decent pair of headphones.
But if you seriously want to buy a headset, maybe the Razor orca, I think they're like $60 or if you want to spend an extra $30, go with the Steelseries Siberia v2.
if you want a mic, a $20 stand-up logitech is better quality than a headset's mic if you're only willing to spend $60.

if you want to shop for a real pair of headphones that are cheap; http://www.reddit.com/r/audiophiles

I use to have the RAZER Carcharias before my current one but after about 2 years of use I think they stoped working in one ear.. now I have some cheap for 30$ Plantronics and they are dying now as well.. :/
Well.. I do need a good mic on them so I can use them for gaming / streaming and TS and stuff..
I however have stand-up mic Blue Microphones - Snowball
Just never really used it.. lolz

I stopped buying into the "headset" image crap. They're headphones with less bass than conventional headphones and a low end mic attached to it.

I have never in my life been able to wear headphones for longer durations, but with these I can game for a full workday (8h without even taking them off, which I have been doing the past 3 days), they are outright the best I've tried, you get what you pay for I guess.

i would abstain from buying anything with "gaming" on it. most of the times its hust as good as the others, but will cost you 20 bucks more.

I personally have to say, i have tested Sennheiser and am not 100% happy with the 50-100$ cathegory. They have high frequencies dominating, which is good for speech, but should you ever listen to music or want some "whoom" during explosions they are a bit underwhelming imo. They are by no means bad, but i found that AKG are better alrounders in that cathegory.
The AKG K540 is a good choice for example

Question: if I to use my stand-up mic . blew snowball .. isn't it going to pick up all the sound around unlike "gaming headset" that have like only picks up speech.. or something..

Its more about the quality of the microphone and whether it has noise supression or not. You may not want to take the cheapest 2$ microphone. The simple clip-on microphones have the weakness to record in all directions. Fixed microphones with noise reduction usually consist of two microphones. The regular one and one that is heading into the other direction, recording the surrounding. Thereby it is able to filter out the voice. Mics like this are also available separately.
