herp derp you're a moron that bought a garbage keyboard and you don't want to listen to the 500 people telling you it's garbage and to get a better one instead of trying to fix it.
Sometimes the solution is not to spend countless weeks trying to fix and RMA a horrible product.

The general consensus is that the keyboard you bough is shit and that your time is better spent obtaining a new one instead of trying to fix the one you have. Sorry.

Let me rephrase.
You have a faulty keyboard due to a problem in manufacturing.
Unless you have the knowhow to open the keyboard up and fix it yourself, there is nothing you can do about it. If you do open up the keyboard, you will likely void your warranty and you will not be able to RMA it.
Your problem cannot be solved via any software, and there are no household tricks to fix a high-end membrane keyboard.
That leaves you with two options:
1) RMA the keyboard, and include information about both the keyboards if you can. If there is an issue in manufacturing, Razer can fix the problem faster if they know the part numbers of any faulty keyboards. Beyond that, you will have to wait for a replacement. Lots of people had to go through the same process with a similar Razer keyboard, and experience tells us that there's nothing else you can do.
2) Buy a new keyboard. Regardless of what kind of keyboard you buy, you may still have problems with it. Even mechanical keyboards aren't safe from defects in manufacturing. That being said, mechanical keyboards are easier to fix, so if there is a problem you will not have to wait a long time for the product to come back in case you do have to RMA it. You obviously are frustrated with the problems your Marauder has, so these types of keyboards may lessen that frustration.
Herpderp let me insult everyone who posted in my thread and tried to help me herpderp.

I've got the same problem. Sometimes keystrokes get doubled, especially m's and o's, and sometimes i's. Is it worth to RMA it, or is it a problem that goes with all of the Marauders?
Maybe I'm better off selling it and buying a 6GV2.

Razer products are notoriously fragile and prone to technical issues, both software and hardware, and RARELY if EVER last more than 1 year of intense game use. I know this from being previously sponsored by them.
Honestly, I know it's cliche, but get a Samsung SEM DT-35. I got 2 of them like 2 years ago, and the first one hasn't even given me any problems yet. I haven't even OPENED the backup. It really is a good, solid keyboard that feels good and never fights you. Just get that one. It's sweet and simple. And stylin' white  .

I too know this *glances at two broken DeathAdders and residue on desk from broken Sphex*.

Yea, I feel sorry for team dignitas, or anyone sponsored by Razer who is forced to use their products. I had a Razer Copperhead die on me in the MIDDLE OF A MATCH at a WCG event one year causing me to lose a group match, which is a pretty bad time for a mouse to die. I honestly think they need to stop pumping out so many fucking products, and work on making some more DURABLE ones, and ones that actually work well instead of being heavy, awkward, and lit up with lots of lights. They make products "pretty", but they work like fucking shit. Sorry. I used to like Razer products, in the beginning, when they just made mice, like the optical Diamondback and the laser Copperhead, but then they just went too far. They make so, so SO many crappy products and are becoming a joke. They push their marketing towards "lolpr0gaming" but really it's just a gimmick. They sponsor players that would win just as easily with a standard microsoft, samsung, or logitech mouse/keyboard, and aspiring amateurs buy into it and purchase these products which then just cease to work. Seriously guys, these products will NOT help make you a better player.
Get a standard keyboard that's durable and has a good feeling FOR YOU, with keys positioned how you like them. Samsung SEM DT-35 and standard slightly rounded Logitech keyboards come to mind. As for mice, get a mouse that is LIGHT, fits your hand well, and make sure it's OPTICAL. Laser mice suck, and here's why: because they track using a very SMALL, THIN laser instead of a wider-sweeping light, the laser covers a much, much smaller surface area, which is more easily blocked; i.e. they are prone to the tiny, tiny laser beam getting interrupted by a TINY piece of hair, dirt, or dust, causing your mouse to spaz out. For mice, the Logitech Mini Optical, Logitech Optical Wheel Mouse, and Microsoft Wheel Mouse Optical are all good solid choices. I hope this saves at least one person the hassle that comes with buying into the "omgpr0gaming accessories" crap, and helps them choose equipment that will LAST, perform well, and save money in the process. Why pay MORE for a less durable, inferior product?
