In January I'm going to start playing quite a bit of BW again but my Razer Krait has been dying this past month. It's my third (maybe fourth) Krait and I'm not going to get a another -- they just don't last long enough under my usage. So I've been looking around for a new mouse to win TSL with and I think I've found the one...

I'll be riding to victory on American Muscle. Includes an on/off switch for the LED headlights.

...
(I'll actually be getting a Logitech Optical USB Mouse)

Salmosa are pretty damn good. Even comfortable with my hands and I'm not a small person.

I can also recommend the salmosa, it has a similar feel to logitech mini optical but its far more easily maneuvered and feels much much comfortable.

Mini Opticals have horrible sensors, I think they're just so widely used because top players use them, the shape is appropriate for smaller hands, and SC being played at 640x480 means you don't really notice the shit sensor as much as you might.

For example (an image I made when I first got my mini optical comparing with my MS IE 3.0, FWIW I have 2 seperate mini opticals and they are exactly the same in this respect).

[image loading]


High mouse prediction/angle snapping and horrible sensor in general. This was with the mouse @ 500Hz refresh rate, but it was pretty much the same if not a little worse at 125Hz.

I'm using a Steel Kinzu at the moment, and while it's not perfect, the shape and texture/coating of the mouse is amazing, and the sensor is FAR better than a mini optical. One day I'll learn how to make a frakenmouse and chuck a 3.0 sensor in a Kinzu shell. Anyway, just my $0.02.

My right click on my G5 only works about 80% of the time and takes more force than it used to to push down. Only after a year pretty sad about it.

I am currently using MX518 and I really like it. I used to have Razer Copperhead but right mouse button broke. It was also excellent mouse.
