ROG Unveils the Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition
ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) expands its pro-grade keyboard lineup with the Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition. Designed for champions and driven by precision, this 65% compact keyboard blends cutting-edge hardware with the signature mindset of one of CS:GO’s greatest players, ZywOo. Built for competition, designed for focused play, and tuned for speed, it’s the keyboard that promises elite-level performance on the biggest stages.
Pro-Level Features Meet Everyday Comfort
The Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition centers on ROG’s HFX magnetic switches, pre-lubed for a solid feel and ultra-fast actuation. With a customizable actuation range of 0.1–4.0mm, players can tailor responsiveness to their personal style, whether precision tapping for micro-aim or rapid execution during high-stakes rounds. The switch design uses a POM stem and polycarbonate top housing to ensure a stable keystroke with reduced dust intrusion, supporting a long 100-million-keypress lifespan.
Speed, Precision, and Adaptive Typing
Speed takes center stage with an 8000Hz polling rate, delivering a theoretical 0.125ms response time. That level of responsiveness translates into fewer perceived delays and crisper keystrokes, crucial during clutch moments in majors and title runs. In addition, the Falchion Ace features Speed Tap mode—when the system detects two keys pressed in quick succession, the last input takes precedence and the previous input is released instantly. This minimizes the time between actions, enabling smoother strafing and faster decision-making in frantic battles.
Rapid Trigger and Onboard Customization
Two standout innovations simplify in-game control: a built-in Rapid Trigger toggle and an interactive touch panel. Rapid Trigger switches between normal typing and high-refresh, rapid input without relying on software menus, allowing players to switch modes on the fly for faster keystroke repetition and improved cornerstone accuracy. The touch panel and Gear Link software enable fine-tuning of actuation points, macros, and per-key behavior to suit different games and play styles.
Stability, Acoustics, and Comfort
Beyond speed, the Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition is engineered for a quiet, cushioned feel. It integrates five-layer dampening and a silicone gasket mount to absorb pinging noises and cushion keystrokes, delivering a more pleasant typing experience during long practice sessions or marathon matches. The keyboard’s compact 65% form factor retains essential keys while freeing desk space for mouse control, a critical advantage in high-pressure matches.
Signature Design and Practical Perks
Visually, the Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition carries a signature aesthetic inspired by ZywOo’s focused mindset and competitive drive. The design reflects the elegance and precision that have defined his career, while practical additions like two USB-C ports on either side facilitate multi-PC setups and quick toggling between systems. A bundled dust cover doubles as a tray, helping keep the board pristine between sessions.
Why It Matters on the Majors Circuit
For ZywOo and other top players, the keyboard is a performance tool as decisive as a weapon in the hands of a master. The Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition embodies this philosophy: fast, reliable, and tweakable to the millimeter. When every millisecond counts, a responsive actuation point, rapid reset, and a tuned acoustics profile can influence clutch plays, map control, and overall match tempo.
