Aurelion Sol Keycaps and backlighting: the truth about the look
One question comes up before every purchase of colorful keycaps: will the RGB shine through? Better to answer it right away, because the answer shapes the choice. This set of 12 Aurelion Sol keys is made of PBT with DYE-SUB printing: the material is solid, and the legends aren't cut out of the plastic. So light doesn't pass through the characters.
Light goes around instead of through
In practice, your lighting doesn't disappear: it escapes around the edge of each key and haloes the base of the cap. On a keyboard with a light-colored case, this peripheral glow reflects off the plate and forms a clean halo under the rows. It's the look most players switching to PBT are after: ambient lighting that highlights the keyboard, rather than glowing letters.
Which colors to put behind this set
- Deep blue or cyan: extends the set's cosmic theme and stays subtle at night.
- Amber or gold: brings out the golden keys of the celestial dragon.
- Slow waves: a gentle animation works better than a fast cycle, which muddles the halo.
- Cool white: the most neutral option, it lets the set's palette speak for itself.
The Star Forger on twelve keys
The design plays the night-sky card: midnight blue, indigo, golden sparks and scattered stars, with the silhouette of the celestial dragon and the orbs that circle him. The overall look stays dark, which explains why the peripheral halo stands out so well. In a similar register, the Diana keycaps keep the same lunar range in a more silvery take, the Nocturne keycaps go toward a denser blue-black, and the Kalista keycaps add a spectral touch to the same cool palette.
Installation
The caps sit on an MX cross stem and fit keyboards with Cherry MX, Gateron, Kailh or Outemu switches. A keycap puller comes with the set to pop off the old keys cleanly. OEM profile.
Your lighting questions
Does my RGB become useless with these keycaps?
Not at all, it just changes role: instead of lighting the legends, it outlines the keys, which gives a softer look on a dark desk.
Can you mix these 12 keys with translucent keycaps?
Yes, and many people do: the Aurelion Sol keys stay opaque among glowing caps, which visually highlights them on the movement area.

The star dragon on twelve keys
Aurelion Sol does not play like an ordinary mage: he claims the map, traces his stars and leaves a trail behind him. That is the idea the set's artwork picks up, between constellations, deep blues and the golden glints of a celestial dragon. On a black keyboard everything blends into the case and only the printed keys stand out; on a white keyboard the contrast is sharper and the design reads from across the room. The set is aimed at players who like dark setups and luminous accents: an LED strip behind the screen, a cosmic wallpaper, dimmed light. Twelve keys are enough to set that tone without rebuilding the whole keyboard.
Dye-sublimated PBT and the backlight
One question always comes up with a set this dark: what happens to the backlight? Dye-sublimated PBT is opaque. Light does not pass through the legends; it escapes around the keycap and forms a halo beneath each key: the effect remains, the colour of the design does not change. Everything else is standard. MX cross-stem, which covers Cherry MX, Gateron, Kailh and Outemu: pull off a key and the raised cross is visible on the switch. The OEM profile follows the row-by-row angle of pre-built mechanical keyboards, so each cap goes back on an equivalent row. The supplied puller slides in diagonally, then pulls straight up. The 12 keys can be placed freely, on AZERTY as on QWERTY.
What this set will not light up
This set lights nothing up: dye-sublimated PBT is opaque, no legend glows, and the lighting effect comes from the keyboard, not from the keys. Nor does it cover the whole keyboard: 12 keys dress one area, and keys with a manufacturer-specific width are not covered. It cannot be fitted to a membrane keyboard or to a keyboard with low-profile scissor-mechanism keys, which have no MX cross-stem. The OEM profile does not match a build in Cherry, XDA or SA profile. Finally, the Aurelion Sol artwork is a creation inspired by the League of Legends universe: it is not a licensed product, nor an item connected to the game's publisher.

Verified specifications · vérifié le
Ce qu’il fait bien
- 12 touches en PBT, un plastique plus dense que l'ABS monté d'origine sur la plupart des claviers
- Motif appliqué par sublimation DYE-SUB : le colorant pénètre la matière, sans couche en relief ni bord à écailler
- Surface mate, sans finition brillante au départ
- Profil OEM et tige croisée MX : remplacement à hauteur identique sur Cherry MX, Gateron, Kailh et Outemu
- Extracteur de keycaps fourni, pose par le dessus sans ouvrir le clavier
Ce qu’il ne fait pas
- Ne remplace pas un clavier complet : 12 touches habillent une zone, les autres rangées gardent leurs capuchons d'origine
- Tailles fournies : 7 touches 1U (1,9 cm), une 1,25U, une Verr Maj 1,75U, une Retour arrière 2U, une Maj 2,75U (5,225 cm) et une barre d'espace 6,25U
- Claviers compacts 65 %, 75 %, 96 % et 98 touches : leur Maj droite est raccourcie à 1,75U ou 2,25U, la Maj 2,75U du set ne s'y monte pas. Les 7 touches 1U se posent sans difficulté
- Clavier AZERTY ISO : la touche 2U fournie correspond au Retour arrière, pas à la touche Entrée, qui est en L sur un clavier français
- Ne convient pas aux claviers à membrane, aux claviers à touches basses (low profile) ni aux switches à tige propriétaire
- Les légendes ne sont pas rétroéclairées : le PBT est opaque, la lumière du switch passe autour de la touche
- Le profil OEM ne s'aligne pas avec un clavier monté dans un autre profil (Cherry, SA, XDA, DSA) : une marche reste visible
- Création de fan art inspirée de l'univers League of Legends : ce set n'est pas un produit sous licence officielle

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this set fit my keyboard?
It all comes down to the MX cross-stem. Pull off one keycap: if the switch shows a raised cross, the 12 keycaps clip straight on. That covers Cherry MX, Gateron, Kailh and Outemu. A membrane keyboard, or one with low-profile scissor-mechanism keys, is out of scope.
What exactly do I get?
The stated contents are 12 keycaps and a puller. The keys are standard size and you place them where you like; keys with a manufacturer-specific width are not covered.
Does the Aurelion Sol palette work on a white keyboard?
It does, just differently. On a black case the deep blues blend in and only the printed keys stand out; on a white case the break is sharp and the set becomes a dark block in the middle of the keyboard. Both hold up, it comes down to taste.
Do the designs light up with the backlight?
No. Dye-sublimated PBT is opaque: RGB draws a halo around each keycap, it does not shine through the dragon or the stars.
What does the artwork actually show?
A design inspired by the celestial dragon and its constellations, drawn key by key: not one portrait cut into twelve pieces, but a series of visuals sharing the same palette. The level of detail comes from the dye-sublimation process, which prints into the material.
Is this set official?
No. It is an illustration inspired by the League of Legends universe, not a licensed product. These are ordinary keycaps with no connection to the game's publisher.

It is a fair question. Here is the answer, straight.

The 2-year legal warranty of conformity is handled by us — not by a form on the other side of the world. And 14 days to change your mind, with no need to justify yourself.
We do not claim to be the cheapest. We claim that you will know exactly what you are buying before you pay.
