i'm thinking i'll buy it. i've been considering a razer mouse for a while cuz i dont feel like my current mouse is fast enough. but the razer mice are cheap and are not specifically designed with what i look for in a starcraft mouse. however the krait has the design that i like and its price is much more reasonable than other models... too bad orange is the only color

oh wtf is '1200 apm' anyway...how the hell does someone even click that fast -.- even nada with hotkeys is like 500apm max xD


You meant average APM?

Progamers like Nada at some points can reach more than 1000 APM. But maybe more than half are from keyboard. Anyway I think it'll help *insane* players to make more faster & sensitive clicks. This also means the buttons are more durable for super fast massive clicks.


no, i dont think anyone can actually get 1000 apm ..not even nada. lol i have so many replays of progamers (e.g xellos / nada / whatever high apm people) and never are their max apms even near 1000..

i was bored once and i started a game and set a hotkey, and held on to the key for like 5 minutes and i only got 1200apm~ -_-

so wtf is "1200apm" mouse? everytime you click once it counts as 2 clicks? -_-;

Jesus fucking christ... Herimto hotkey assigns... he's not fast, he just literally holds the buttons down (on his keyboard) and his APM skyrockets.

Anyways, to keep on topic... I really like the way this mouse looks, and I'll probably get one (I've been wanting to get an optical mouse for a while now).

Razer Diamondback is awesome. That Krait mouse might a little too small (for me at least)

Ok since I can't post my own topic 3 day trial for new members..
I got a razer copperhead which uses laser. They have a mouse out called the krait which is supposed to be for rts which uses optical. I was looking and they both are the same exact shape besides mine goes up to 2000 dpi instead of 1800.
But everyone's talking about the krait like its great.. whats the difference would optical be better then laser for rts?
Also I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the Razer Habu i'm thinking about replacing my copperhead and I've always loved the way the ms ie mouse was designed the feel of the grip and all.. its laser and uses upto 2000 dpi.

Any suggestions? So far ive liked my copperhead but it just feels like when i play with my old ie mouse i get more accurate clicking on splitting and micro.

Basicly Habu or Krait??!!

it doesn't really matter, but if you really liked the shape of the MS IE 3.0 Mouse then definitely get the Habu.

Higher DPI does not make it better - in fact, for Starcraft, it makes it WORSE. You're just going to have to turn it down to 400/800 anyway, so don't fall victim to silly marketing. The Krait is indeed much the same shape, but it is a bit smaller. The size makes it a bit easier for a finger-grip or claw grip.

I don't think anyone can physically reach 500 APM with spam clicking alone. I personally only get around 270 this way and even some pros like Jaedong stay under 450 most of the time during their most click-intensive plays (such as Mutalisk micro'ing).

i have been using a krait for several years now (so im biased) but i love this mouse. 40$ makes it easy to replace and mine has yet to break in the face of reasonably heavy use. the shape i think is what turns most people off of the mouse but since you are looking at other razer mice anyway i guess thats not a problem. i reccomend krait over the habu because it costs less, and dpi (as has been mentioned) is not needed really. also i remember an article awhile back where it was proven with SCIENCE that laser mice were a waste of money at this point.

LoL i figured since i liked the ie feel that maybe the habu is the one to go with this copperhead has just been a little too far of a reach on the fingers i think.. i dunno lol Really 400-800 dpi? lmao whats best setting?

Krait has an unique shape, very high speed and really solid precision once you get the hang of it. It's to heavy for my taste though.
