Keycaps Sylas
Full description

Sylas keycaps: thickness, the detail you can't see in a photo

Two sets can look identical in pictures and feel very different in hand. What separates them comes down to a few tenths of a millimeter of plastic. The Sylas set — deep purple, electric blue, broken chains — is a good way to explain in concrete terms what that changes.

What thickness changes

  • Sound: a thick wall resonates less. Keystrokes sound full and deep instead of clacking hollowly.
  • Rigidity: no flex under pressure, even on the wide keys. The force goes straight into the switch.
  • Edges: a thick edge catches the light and draws a clean outline. That is what gives the "solid key" impression in macro photos.

How the purple looks

The Sylas palette is both saturated and dark. On a black keyboard, it almost passes for midnight blue in low light and reveals its purple in full light. On a white keyboard, it looks much more clearly purple.

Product details

  • 12 PBT keys, DYE-SUB printing
  • OEM profile, standard height
  • MX stem: Cherry MX, Gateron, Kailh, Outemu
  • Keycap puller included

Two questions

Is a thicker key taller? No. The OEM profile sets the outer height; thickness affects the wall, on the inside.

Does it make the keyboard heavier? Over 12 keys, the difference is imperceptible. You notice the effect in the sound, not the weight.

Other purples

The Syndra keycaps push the purple lighter and brighter; the Diana keycaps shift toward midnight blue and silver.

Sylas, his chains, and a material you can feel — Sylas League of Legends Keycaps – PBT Thickness You Can See and Feel

Sylas, his chains, and a material you can feel

Sylas spent years in chains for a power he never chose, then broke out by stealing the spells of the people who had locked him up. He is a head-on champion, played by those who would rather walk into the fight than around it. His palette is short and effective: bright petricite blue, purple, forge black, and the chains running through all of it. On a keyboard, a contrast like that calls for a surface that does not go glossy: PBT stays dry under the finger and does not take the sticky shine of the most heavily typed keys, so the blue keeps its density month after month.

What you feel before you see it: PBT and dye-sublimation — Sylas League of Legends Keycaps – PBT Thickness You Can See and Feel

What you feel before you see it: PBT and dye-sublimation

Hold an original ABS key between two fingers, then one from the set: the difference shows up before the colours do. PBT is harder and drier, and does not turn slippery where you type most. Now run a fingernail over the legend: nothing catches, because the design is dye-sublimated (DYE-SUB) and the dye penetrates the material instead of sitting on top — no layer to wear through or chip off. The rest is mechanical: MX cross-stem (Cherry MX, Gateron, Kailh, Outemu), OEM profile with one height per row, fitted by hand with the keycap puller included, no glue, reversible.

What no material will make up for — Sylas League of Legends Keycaps – PBT Thickness You Can See and Feel

What no material will make up for

Good PBT does not turn twelve keys into a keyboard: the mechanical board has to be there already, and the rows left uncovered keep their original caps. The MX cross-stem is a condition, not an option — membrane, low-profile and proprietary stems are out. And since that same PBT is opaque, Sylas's blue will not light up: the switch light passes around the key and forms a halo without shining through the design. And however much the character comes from League of Legends, this set is an illustration inspired by it, not a licensed product.

What this set contains

Verified specifications · vérifié le

Ce qu’il fait bien

  • 12 touches en PBT : le grain reste mat et sec sous le doigt
  • Impression par sublimation (DYE-SUB) : le colorant est diffusé dans la matière, sans surépaisseur ni couche à écailler
  • Profil OEM, le plus courant sur les claviers mécaniques du commerce : la hauteur reste alignée sur les rangées d'origine
  • Tige croisée MX : compatible Cherry MX, Gateron, Kailh et Outemu
  • Extracteur de keycaps fourni : pose et dépose à la main, opération réversible

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

What kind of keyboard does this set need?

A mechanical keyboard with an MX cross-stem: Cherry MX, Gateron, Kailh, Outemu. To be sure, lift one key off and look for the cross on top of the switch. Membrane keyboards, low-profile ones and in-house stems do not offer that anchor point.

What's in the box?

12 PBT keycaps and a keycap puller. The puller saves you from tugging caps off by hand and straining the switches; refitting is then done with no glue or soldering, and you can put your original keys back whenever you like.

Does the design wear where you type the most?

No, because there is nothing on the surface to wear: dye-sublimation (DYE-SUB) spreads the dye inside the plastic. As for PBT itself, its hardness is exactly what stops it turning shiny and sticky in the busiest spots.

Can you really feel the difference with my current keys?

If your keyboard came with ABS caps, yes: PBT answers drier and firmer under the fingertip. The legend, on the other hand, cannot be felt at all — no ridge under the fingernail, since the design is in the material rather than on it.

What does the artwork represent?

It picks up the visual codes of Sylas, the Unshackled: the blue of petricite magic, forge black and the chain motif that follows the character. The treatment is graphic and stylised, designed to stay readable at the size of a key.

Is this an official League of Legends item?

No. It is an illustration inspired by that universe, sold with no licence and no connection to the game's publisher. The caps remain standard keyboard parts, independent of any game content.

Why buy here rather than on a marketplace

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

We verify, they list
