XykealThe keycaps are made of high quality plastic and the case is aluminum. This is a very premium board. Are you asking because you want to hear about the keyboard switches? I know osu! is about aim and rhythm (usually tapping with z and x). I like light linear switches for gaming because it is less exhausting on the fingers

erickongIf it was a premium board, I probably wouldn't be on my third replacement for the same issue. Just putting that out there.

PigmonkeYWhat's the issue?

erickongYou can look all over the discussions and reviews page. After about a week of use, keys start to randomly double tap like there's no debounce in the firmware at all. I've got the issue with my 3rd replacement, and i'm just done dealing with the process.
Live and learn. This was the last "massdrop made" product I ever bought.

PigmonkeYThey are running tests and looking into it internally. I am sorry that you have to go through this.
With any of the 3 board that you have been through; did you try uninstalling and installing the switch, cleaning components with isopropyl alcohol, or blowing out the hot swappable sockets with compressed air?

erickongYup. Worked for about an hour or two, and went back to double tapping. I can also get the same effect by swapping usb ports/computers for an hour or two. I keep my keyboards festidiously clean (they get a biweekly compressed air flush), so i can't imagine this is garbage getting into the sockets.
Seems to mostly be letter keys, haven't had any issues with space or shift or any of the modifiers.

erickongI actually ran into the same issue on a couple occurrences. I don't really notice it that much but there were a couple keys where I noticed it as it started happening non stop. For me I had pulled out the switch and cleaned it off and it seems to have fixed it, although I've seen many people have this issue but more frequent and with no fix. I am worried that this will happen to my keyboard and that I have just wasted $300 CAD on a keyboard, I love the design and the premium look but the quality of the mechanical side of things doesn't seem to be premium. I should have just got a logitech g pro or another keyboard to save worry.

ivandatu> sspacebar
I love how you are demonstrating as you type LOL. Honestly I'm also having issues with a bunch of keys, but the most frustrating one is probably the backspace button that keeps deleting more characters than I want to (which mostly happen because the letters double tap in the first place)

chparkkimI replaced my switches with the KBDFANS T1's on monday, and the problem has totally gone away[. Appears that there were bad batches of halo's. Doesn't matter anyways, as halo's are only used to make holy panda's anyways.

False Advertising BEWARE
This company should be ashamed of themselves. Advertising to young people who save all their money and want nothing more than a keyboard and advertise to them that it is in stock and will be shipped asap and they will arrive before Christmas. Only to "ship" and package and get their hopes up and it arrives and there is no keyboard in the package. Then to get on the website and it isn't even going to ship until January. This happens AFTER you have received their money and made promises that it was arriving, on it 's way, etc! Shame Shame on you!!!

Closest profile to MT3
I really enjoy the MT3 profile, it has actually become kind of difficult to type on other profiles. So I was looking for some that might be close and noticed the SA profile. I was wondering if there were anymore that were close to it. This would open my options significantly when shopping around.

Displaying my DCD Lunar New Year set (Max)
Enough for a full base kit plus novelties, just gotta watch the ample space on top when moving/tilting and near the edges it gets tight so the caps don't fit in as smoothly.
