TOURNAMENT SWITCH
Located on the backside of the keyboard next to the USB Type-C port (H) is the Tournament Switch (I) which
puts the keyboard into a competition compliant mode that:
Keyboard lighting effects can be controlled via the onboard shortcuts below when iCUE is not running or the
keyboard is connected to a device that does not support iCUE.
Other keyboard functions including media keys (A), volume control (F, G), brightness (D), and Windows lock
key (E) still function as normal.
To enable Tournament Mode:
1. Move the switch to the right position
• LED will light up red when enabled
2. Flip up the switch cover to lock into place
• Changes backlighting to static single color to reduce distraction
• Disables custom actions and macros to prevent accidental activation
• Offers standard operation without profiles and profile switching
