ASUS Republic of Gamers Announces the ROG Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition!

ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) has introduced the Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition, a special 65% gaming keyboard designed for ROG ambassador and Counter-Strike legend Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut. It comes equipped with pre-lubed ROG HFX magnetic switches, Rapid Trigger, 8000Hz polling rate, and a five-layer dampening system with a silicone gasket mount for a smoother, quieter typing feel.

Featuring a custom design inspired by ZywOo’s calm focus and competitive spirit, this keyboard celebrates one of the greatest players in Counter-Strike history — a two-time Major Champion and multiple-time HLTV #1 player known for his precision, composure, and clutch performances.

ROG HFX magnetic switches

The ROG HFX magnetic switches deliver ultra-fast, precise performance with a 100-million-keypress lifespan and a pre-lubed design for a smooth, stable feel. Built with POM and polycarbonate materials and a walled stem to enhance stability and resist dust, they offer an adjustable actuation range from 0.1–4.0mm, customizable via the multifunction button, touch panel, or Gear Link software.

In Speed Tap mode, the keyboard instantly prioritizes the latest directional input, allowing for seamless movement changes in FPS games — removing delays from counter-strafing and ensuring sharper, more responsive control.

Rapid Trigger toggle

Traditional mechanical switches require a return to the reset point before the next click registers. With ROG HFX magnetic switches and the Rapid Trigger feature, the switch resets instantly as it moves upward, delivering maximum strafing potential with minimal effort. Unlike most competitor keyboards that require the user to access keyboard software menus to activate or deactivate Rapid Trigger mode, the Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition has a built-in toggle for convenient switching between normal typing mode and Rapid Trigger mode for the fastest typing response and key repeat rate.

8000Hz polling rate

The 8000Hz polling rate of the Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition results in a 0.125ms response time — up to 8X faster than competitor keyboards.

Enhanced typing experiences

Integrated five-layer dampening and a silicone gasket mount absorb pinging noises and provide a more cushioned typing feel for enhanced typing experiences. Competitor gaming keyboards as well as keyboards with analog switches are unable to match the keystroke acoustics of the Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition.

Additional features

The Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition features two USB-C® ports on either side of the rear edge of the keyboard, allowing users to connect two PCs simultaneously and quick-toggle between them. The placement of the ports also allow for more flexible, neater setups.

A bundled keyboard cover keeps dust away from the Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition when not in use. It can also be placed under the keyboard as a tray mount.

The Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition has two pairs of keyboard feet of different heights, giving it three ergonomic tilt angles to suit gamer preferences.

Availability & Pricing

ASUS ROGB Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition is expected to be available in December 2025 in Malaysia.
