I'm using the Roccat Ryos MK Glow Mechanical keyboard, when i try to type two letters it only type one letter,
for example: asasasasas it only type aaaaaaaaa but when i try to type tytytytytytyty it works perfectly,
i have no idea whats causing my keyboard to behave like this.
 
Probably by design of your software you're trying to type in. It's likely looking at the Windows keydown or keypress events and triggering off of that to end the input from the previous key pressed. No matter how hard you may try, good luck actually pressing two keys at precisely the same time. The computer is going to see minute differences where you may think there are none. You will likely need specialized software that is designed to show input from all keys pressed, not just the last one.
 
Google search counts as typing into software. It's running in a web browser, which is going to interpret the keyboard input whether you want it to or not.

Aqua Key Test is free and will let you observe how the anti ghosting on your keyboard is actually reporting keys to the system. It's still up to the final program, or in your case, game, to determine how it will interpret the key presses.
 
Have you tried contacting roccat about that? it may be a faulty keyboard.

The main difference about mechanical keyboards vs others is that they allow for more simultanious key commands, so you can like move diagonally by pressing W and A while also crouching and jumping to do a long jump. Other regular keyboards can get overwhelmed when more than 2-3 keys are pressed at the same time.
