Outstanding

Responsive, agile, nice weight, quality typing

None, except words on keys faded a little

My first gaming keyboard and it's high quality. I also use it for emails and work and I type 70 WPM and it's solid for that as well.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
3 Years In, Solid Keyboard, but the little things hold it back (Cherry MX Red)

-I have owned the keyboard for 3 years, the keyboard has mechanically held up well.
-Printing on the keys has not faded
-The Keyboard's weight and key action is my favorite of any keyboard I've owned, though I have not owned many
-A nice option if you're not a fan of backlighting, though the lock LEDs are unnecessarily bright

-The micro-USB hookup from the cable into the keyboard is awkward as all hell. It sits pretty loose in there and I can definitely see it popping out easily. I put some tape over it pretty early so I wouldn't have to worry about the jack coming loose from the keyboard port and it's been fine.
-I haven't noticed until recently, but the rubber stops on the bottom have come loose after holding the keyboard on my lap. The cheap adhesive seems to be melting from my body temperature. Not a conventional problem, but it sucks. I will wipe down with alcohol and try re-sticking them with super glue.
-It would have been nice if the volume Fn Keys were further on the right side of the board so it would be easier to change the volume with one hand. Not a huge deal though.
