This is my preferred mouse. The double wheel gives me the edge I need to speed around the map and outmaneuver my opponent.

It totally depends on if you prefer a larger mouse, what your grip style is etc.I prefer a heavier mouse so i use Rival 300 CSGO mouse.

there is no "perfect rts mouse", it all depends on your grip and hand size.

1) find a mouse shape that you like (size etc.), something that fits your grip

2) out of all the mice that fit your criteria pick 1 that is lightweight and has a good sensor (you have to do some research here)

If you wanna be budget friendly just pick a mouse that fits your grip, is lightweight and budget friendly. Having a super high end sensor isnt a big deal in RTS games. I went through about ~10 mice before i found 1 that i liked (zowie fk2).

Worth the wait. It's my current mouse, it's a gorgeous and lightweight little beast, and when this one dies I will buy another G403 until they are no longer available.

I have really small hands and I go with TeamScorpion Zealot. Very small, a bit smaller but slightly more height than Logitech Mini Optical. It has drivers but setting is done onboard so once you set it up, the mouse carries the config. I bought in 2014 and still goes strong. It is no longer available though.

Abyssus 3500 was good but I prefer 600 or 800 dpi so the 450/1800/3500 dpi setting felt awkward.

Once mt Zealot dies then replacement would be G Pro(?) Zowie Mico died too soon for me (just after nine months!) but it was one of the best I uses

Logitech G102/G203 is the replacement for the G100s and it is basically a G-Pro and performs as well as one. You can find the G102 (chinese version) for sale on ebay for around 20-30 dollars. Best price/performance mouse on the market as far as I know and a great mouse for starcraft.

I use this
[image loading]
Steelseries Rival
It's great, I had a Steelseries Sensei which is nearly the same but with laser sensor, it was getting old so I got the Rival in replacement (cheaper) and it ends up having a better grip too, perfect for me (this is 40€). This brand makes simple but high quality stuff, so the buttons have a rly good click like the switches are light and come back quickly to "unclicked" the weight is great nothing superfluous in general. They also adverstise that their devices have great longevity, idk how true it is or not but I kept the Sensei for what, 4 years?

The new sensei and rival just came out. They both have optical sensors and look really really good.

Anything by logitech is absolutely amazing and they last FOREVER.

Ive had 2 razor mice and they have broke within a 5 month period. They also feel so plasticy and weak that you can't help but to assume it's going to break very soon and sure enough they do.

Ive also had multiple crappy 10 dollar wal-mart mouse last longer than my razor mouses lolz which is pretty sad to experience.\

Edit: Also, go by something that is perfect for your size of hands. Going by a specific mouse that somebody found success with isn't the best idea. Think the best thing is to find a durable mouse first of all then review them individually to see how well they would fit inside your hand.

I find it to be very difficult to control the mouse accurately when its so much larger than my hands can comfortably cup it. And accuracy in starcraft is to important to ignore the details of each mouse you plan on purchasing. I would only say this for RTS games.

I have enough Logitech Mini Opticals for the rest of my life. Ever. Like, 6, including one in-box. :D Best for BW.
Otherwise, get Wireless Thinkpad Keyboards (with red trackpoint in the middle, the 'productivity' and 'ergonomics' equivalent of PC > Console), attach a guitar-strap, and you get a keytar keyboard with inbuilt mouse (pointer) you can stand up and walk around with = perfect for hyper ADD ppl.

If you want a mouse with a reliable middle click, don't bother with the G402. I bought it to replace my 10+ year old MX518 and the middle click requires an impressive amount of down force to respond.

My mouse of choice is still the Razer Abyssus 1800 w/zero mouse accel.


Amen.

I've had my abyssus for upwards of 6 years, and it's been the best RTS mouse that I've ever had.

Although I use 450 DPI w/ no mouse accel. Habits from playing FPS. It evens out by the resolution of broodwar being blown up and making the sens higher. When remastered comes out I'll have to figure out some sort of ratio with my native res and the res SCBW usually used.


Same here.
I haven't used any other mouse for close to 10 years now I think.

Best mouse ever
I'm only on my second Abyssus now as well - so no idea what the complaint about it breaking quickly is about.
this even includes a lot of travelling (I'm born in Germany, but live in the UK - with family and friends still living in Germany).



My brothers.

Edit: Oh ya I should probably make a real comment. I've also been using my Abyssus for about 6yrs and the only replacement I can find that isnt a Zowie/Monoprice Mico is the Abyssus V2 or the Logitech g102. Leaning towards the g102 because build quality and Abyssus V2 doesn't work without Synapse running(deal breaker imo)

i used MX300 for many years, then when they were out of sales, i switched to G1, then to G100.
These are more-or-less the same mice.
However i must admit my G100 started to glitch (short disconnects) after maybe 2 years of use.
I switched to G403 (got is as a present) and while the form needed some getting used to, i find me being quite accurate with it these days. Definitely recommend.
