For most keyboard you start with unscrewing the case.

Usually means 4 or 5 screws on the bottom of the case, often 1 screw will be covered or hidden (usually with a warranty sticker or even under the rubber feet in very rare instances)

iirc, there is no screw under the razer lable, and there are screws under the rubber feet.  And the plastic of the case is very weak, so don't pull it very hard, otherwise it will break. I have broken mine in the past

1. Get a hammer case
2. Hit the razer keyboard (focus on crap case and caps)
3. Buy a new board
4. Put it in the hammer case

Tbh I'd just do steps 2 and 3.  Then 4 with a sandwich of sorts.

The screws are under the rubber feet on the back.

That's why you focus on the crap case and caps, the only things a reasonable person never wants to see again.
