So to start my setup at home consist of a Razer Blade 14", Blackwidow Ultimate 2013, Orochi 2013, and an Asus 24" 1920x1200 16:10 IPS Monitor. When I first hooked everything up, synapse kept on crashing over and over. So I uninstalled it and re-installed it. It was still doing this. After some trouble shooting. This is what I determined.
When I have the Blackwidow hooked up to the Blade, and the Orochi plugged directly into the Blade, everything is fine. When I unplug the Orochi, plug in the pass through cable for the Blackwidow, and plug the Orochi into the usb port on the Blackwidow itself, it works briefly, stops working, and synapse crashes. Well at first one would think that it must be a problem with the Blackwidow, but I had it hooked up exactly like this on my Asus G73sw with no issues at all.
After speaking with Razer Blade support, they were able to replicate my issue! (Which was nice knowing that it wasn't something wrong with any of my hardware) I guess it only happens with the specific combination of these products. Support also said that it only does it with the Orochi, all other mice work fine in this same configuration, and they were not able to replicate it at all on a desktop.
I am just surprised they didn't find this before the Blade was even released. You would think they tested it with all combinations of their own products. Oh well though.

I discovered an odd bug with the Razer Blade 14"
