Pro Eases visual processing
Different colors within the same color scheme to quickly distinguish the layout (px, %, ..) and other declaration blocks from the colors (background-color; color); that eases the visual processing, thus increases reading speed, while reading CSS.
Pro Light & dark themes
Dark theme does a good job of contrasting kvps
Pro Comes in 5 different variants
Comes in 5 different variations: Tomorrow, Tomorrow Night, Tomorrow Eighties, Tomorrow Blue and Tomorrow Night Bright.
Pro One of the most common dark themes
Default for Sublime Text, avaialble on IntelliJ products and Eclipse via plug-in. Usually ranked in top 3 of highest downloaded theme for a IDE.
Pro Strong enough contrast
Without being fully black on white (which is good on modern already very contrasted screens) it remains pretty dark compared to many alternatives; making it more readable.
Pro There are versions for a lot of applications or it's easy to make your own
There are ready-made packages for Vim, IntelliJ, Emacs, iTerm, etc. If your app isn't supported the website explains clearly what colors are used, so it should be easy to wrap up your own.
Con Low contrast
Comments for example, has very low contrast against the background.
Con Too much blue
People caring about the color intensity in their screens, will notice that this theme is not useful for night use. If you use software like Flux to dim the blues in your screen this theme loses it's enchant.
Pro Multiple contrast options
Three different variants are available, each with different contrasts.
Pro Made ready for multiple text-editors

Pro Calm blue background
If used with flux, it turns into warm gray during night.
Pro Balanced contrast
Most color themes have either too much contrast or too low contrast. Spacegray is much better balanced in contrast (see what I did there)
Pro Low contrast color theme
The low contrast will reduce eyestrain.
Pro Comes in three variants
Comes in three different variations: Ayu Dark, Ayu Light, Ayu Mirage
Pro Improves Sublime Text's user interface
The theme cleans up the interface so that all elements in the UI are easier to find without being distracting. The icons for each file type clearly define what the file is so there's no having to look too closely at file extensions. The color scheme choices (such as Oceanic Next Dark) in part...
Con Developer pushes versions too often
Very little meat in each version. Has been known to dramatically change the color scheme.
