Category Standard

Razer is a globally recognized market leader in gaming hardware and software with massive verifiable traction (millions of users, large team). However, the project submission itself was of low quality, providing vague hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'everyone', 'most people') and missing key financial/user metrics. While the real-world utility and reach are undeniable and score highly, the score is penalized significantly by the lack of specific evidence provided in the application.
