1. Rapid Trigger
Rapid trigger allows the immediate triggers of key inputs when pressed down and reset when released, and the extreme sensitivity can reach 0.1 mm. That means you can repeat the same inputs fast in mid-motion, suitable for games like FPS as you can aim and shoot faster and more responsively, or rhythm games to make quick hits and turns to survive on.
Magnetic switch
Suitable for: FPS, action games, racing games, rhythm
Traditional mechanical switch
2. Adjustable Actuation Point
Decide the distance to activate the switch for each key, and set an ultra-short actuation distance for gaming like fast-pacing games. Or, custom a long operating point to avoid typos.
Suitable for: FPS, action games, racing games, typing
3. Double Actions Over One Keystroke
The switch can register two keys over a single keystroke, half press for one action and full press for the other. You can bind double actions like hopping over blocks and then quickly hunker to lurk, which minimizes the latency in between, and gains more competitive advantages.
