The most anticipated artisan keycap set of the season has arrived, not with a whisper, but with the resonant thock of metal-coated perfection.

The most anticipated artisan keycap set of the season has finally descended from the creative forges of Qube. Forget everything you thought you knew about keycap feel and sound. The ARCANE-Vi Collection is here, a fusion of gritty Piltover aesthetics and groundbreaking material science that redefines premium keyboard customization.

01 From Zaun's Depths to Your Desktop

For fans of Arcane, the series was more than animation; it was a tactile world of rust, chrome, shimmering Hextech, and defiant graffiti. Capturing this essence on a keyboard required more than a simple color palette.

The ARCANE-Vi keycaps are a narrative in plastic and metal. The deep, resonant purple of Vi's gauntlets forms the base, slashed through with gunmetal black and punctuated by startling chrome yellow accents, mirroring the explosive energy of the undercity.

Every legend is a piece of the story. Subtle Arcane runes are etched onto modifier keys, while iconic symbols from the series—the Hextech crystal, the Firelight emblem, the silhouette of a certain loose cannon's shark—adorn the novelties. This isn't decoration; it's world-building for your workspace.

02 The Innovation: Metallic Paint Alchemy

The true magic of this set lies beneath the surface. Qube's engineers have pioneered a new "Metallic Paint" coating process. This isn't a simple finish; it's a multi-layered treatment applied to a premium PBT substrate.

• Unmatched Haptic Feedback: The result is a keycap with a cool, substantial feel that standard plastic can't replicate. Your fingers register a dense, premium inertia with every keystroke, transforming typing from a chore into a physical pleasure.

• The Acoustic Revolution: The material innovation dramatically alters the acoustic profile. The metallic coating dampens the high-pitched "clack" often associated with PBT, producing a deeper, more satisfying "thock" that is richer and more muted. It’s a sound that signals quality, felt as much as it is heard.

• Durability Redefined: Far from delicate, this advanced coating is tested for exceptional resistance to shine and wear. The legends, protected beneath the surface via a 5-side dye-sublimation process, are guaranteed to withstand years of relentless pounding, keeping Vi's vibrancy intact.

03 A Collector's Trove of Detail

This 127-key set is a deep dive into Piltover and Zaun. It comes loaded with exclusive novelty keys that are instant conversation starters.

• The Esc Key: Vi's iconic hextech-enhanced gauntlet, ready to power up your escape.

• The Enter Key: A dynamic silhouette of Powder and Jinx, a poignant split that defines the series.

• The Fn Key: A detailed cluster of glowing Hextech crystals.

• The Modifiers: Adorned with the crests of Piltover's elite and the gritty graffiti of the Lanes.

Designed for the OEM profile, the set maintains a familiar typing angle while offering a completely new sensory experience. It offers universal compatibility with Cherry MX stems and most mechanical switches, making it a versatile upgrade for any enthusiast's board.
