They use "Costar-style" (but they're made by iOne) stabilizers:






These are authentic Costar stabilizers:





And these are Cherry stabilizers:

That's how you get back-lit caps.  Left pic is a solid ABS black keycap, cannot be backlit.  Right pic is a milky-white key cap with a black over-coat where the legend is etched off by a laser.  Now you can see the light through the legend.

And that is why the black color just fades off over time and it becomes like this?

Well, yeah.  Deck is the only brand that has a solution where that doesn't happen but it has it's own limitations.  To lower costs, all Deck keys are the same profile.

It's not really double shot.  The skirt is 1 mold of black ABS, the keytop/legend area and stem are another mold of white/natural PBT that is inverse  dye-sub'd for the legend.  These 2 pieces are then either sonically welded or glued together.
