Mt3 profile ONLY gaming experience

I want to modify my Wooting for the first time, and I’m thinking about getting the Lord of the Rings MT3 keycaps because I love their aesthetic. However, I’ll only be using the keyboard for gaming. I know they’re great for typing, (but i work on a macbook) so my question is they are comfortable just for gaming? Do you think this profile will be comfortable enough if I use a wrist rest, or should I save the money and go for Cherry keycaps instead? I have to be careful with the money since I have to import them, and I can’t return them if I don’t like them.

How to keep clay from coming off key cap?

When I put clay around the keycap base it always either shifts or becomes very thin in certain areas. Usually I’ll fix it but by the time I dry the clay it shifts again. How do I stop this? (Look at the bottom of the keycap to see what I am referring to)

Reasons why you should or shouldn’t buy clay keycaps.

I recently started making and selling clay keycaps, and I was wondering if there are any “non written rules” for this kind of business, like: how much should you spend for one single clay keycap? Which subjects are more suitable, specific characters or maybe decorations?
