Accuracy is more likely to come from having your sensitivity set too high, or mouse acceleration in windows activated/deactivated depending on what you're used to. Last but not least you can train your precision clicking in BW with maps like 1a2a3a micro etc. | ||

If you set your mouse sensitivity through windows higher than 6 out of 11 notches, you will start skipping pixels. - I have no idea how to change mouse sensitivity in-game, other than to use a launcher setting (which doesn't actually work for me). For a new mouse, I'm thinking you could get a g100s and use drivers to lower the dpi to 400, or just get a wmo for that authentic 2006 feel. I don't think anybody here believes the quality of your mouse has any impact on your performance as a BW player, since most pros used cheap garbage and did well anyways. QCK or allsop raindrop are good mousepads. | ||

I mean, it's a really old game and there's a reason why people do have these kind of questions - hello! - there's a thing called professionalism.

I know a guy who's C on iccup (B 2v2) using a Trackball. For years I've begged him to do an FPVOD | ||

Sorry admins I just now found the Tech Support if this can be moved to there I would appreciate it. Sorry.. Of course a mouse that doesn't suck, feel uncomfortable when you hold it, skip pixels or have have built-in acceleration will help you. Which mouse is best however, is all up to your preference. There is a good thread about mice here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/tech-support/174311-the-ultimate-mouse-thread | ||
