Did I break the NWS by landing?

I apply some tricks using trim-only, no pitch from stick approach to landing, maintaining a 5-degree dive, and AoA within the bracket and air-brake on. The speed was about 100. Upon touchdown, the NWS has no response and no warning light whatsoever. Did I break the NWS?

Atm the NW is still very fragile. You may have damaged it on takeoff already.

Deactivate NWS before(!) releasing the brakes for your takeoff run and reactivate it only when your speed is below(!) 50 kts after touchdown. (Or even better when reached taxiing speeds)

Maximum Gear down speed is 175 kias. (same for takeoff, careful when taking off with a clean config)

 

Mind that you can (and likely will) break the Nose Wheel Steering only. The NW will still go in and out but you can’t steer it anymore.
