It's a very "okay" switch, nothing too special. Not the smoothest switch around. You definitely feel it while typing. It's better for gaming if you like heavier switches, but I'd recommend MX Reds if you're going to be more than just gaming or if you like lighter switches.

They feel pretty great for gaming, and bring more of that smoothness that I love with Reds. But, they can be a little fatiguing to type on for long periods of time (not a regular thing for me). I rarely actually bottom out with these. It's hard to NOT bottom out with Reds.
