Ok, if you don't like closed headphones I'll be the first to recommend the Beyer DT531
It's a pity you didn't spend a little more time with the 250-80s, closed headphones offer isolation that can be important in noisier environments, or even if there's any noise at all.
eg: playing games with closed headphones, all you hear are the sounds in the game, nothing else.
With open headphones, you hear the game sounds, cars driving past your house, dogs barking, the phone ringing, people opening/closing doors etc which can all distract you from the game.
Also keep in mind the 250-80s aren't "just for gaming" they're a fantastic all-round headphone that just happen to be excellent for gaming as well.
