because smart RTS gamers already own the logitech mini or the salmosa.
Just look at that mouse, seriously - look at it. I expect better from Razer.
The Salmosa is epically good - that thing looks awful. This is them just trying to convince niche, finicky gamers (us) to buy the latest shiny thing.

I'd seriously have a hard time believing many mice were better than the salmosa for RTS.

That mouse, despite being fingergrip(that I use), seems really, really bad. I'm more than happy with my Salmosa, and it's like 5 times cheaper.

Although it has APM technology.

I hope they do the same kind of stuff for each race (the ultralisk keyboard and the baneling mouse ^^)
I can't afford to buy any of these right know but still the marauder keyboard is wicked!!

Wow, so terran biased names


OP hardware warrants OP names. Especially the keyboard.

More than $100 for a non-mechanical keyboard?

salmosa only has 1800 dpi.
abyssus has 3600dpi (and is loads better than the salmosa)
spectre has 5600dpi
Depending on how it feels in the hand it should out perform all previous Razer mice.
That being said, even if I shelled out $80 (~¥500!) I would certainly tape up ot disable the silly "APM" lights.

imo razer had 2 mouses what worth to buy the diamondback3g and the salmosa, but now they arent offering both of these. maybe noone really bought their useless and expensive stuff when they were available? well for me it causes i wont buy any razer stuff at all...now all that remained is the ms 3.0 or maybe the SS kinzu will fill the hole razer left behind

What could you possibly do with 5600 dots per inch that you couldn't do with 1800 dots per inch?

Lol. It's quite funny that people are going to pay this much money for a mouse.

Salmosa and maybe the Abyssus are the only remotely worthwhile mice they have for cost. And since they're discontinued now, you should probably just buy a cheap logitech one and save your money.

I think that apm technology is roflame. Make me a keyboard that has lights built in and intergrated to light up accoding to which hotkeys you have assigned and unit and building specific shortcuts.

For example, click on an scv and the letters B, V, A, P, H, ESC AND S light up. Then press B for build and S, R, B, E, T, C, U etc light up. Select the building for placement and everything dims until the next unit/building is selected.

Id definately buy that keyboard and id love playing in the dark.

Edit ; i should have this patented
6 poll is a good skill toi have

I gotta admit - they might have had a bigger market for their APM keyboard if Filco didn't get their keyboard advertised to this community from the GSL-1 winner!

Sorry Razer, too late!

3600 dpi is excessive and the abyssus doesn't track well on cloth pads, and cloth pads are the best.

Salmosa has the best shape - that's all that counts, this DPI stuff is a wank - the pros in Korea are using 11$ Logitech mousman mini or whatever the hell it is.

Don't you know ANYTHING?

OBVIOUSLY it's so you can use your 5600 dpi mouse to play Starcraft with a 1600-pixel wide monitor on a surface that's only 1/4 of an inch wider than the mouse itself! Just THINK of all the SAVINGS in DESKSPACE not to mention the ergonomic savings you gain from barely moving the mouse at all.

Do you realise how much USELESS WASTED SPACE would be saved if everyone bumped up the dpi on their mice to 5600 and chopped down their tables and mousepads appropriately. Did you know that for every 486 people using the Razer Spectre, Earth frees up enough room to house one more person of moderate girth? That's our overpopulation crisis sorted right there!

I have it on good authority that the World Health Organization is cooperating with Razer to produce a 11200 dpi mouse for use in urban centres in India and China. The ecological benefits of Razer mice are HUGE!

Maybe this technological improvement along with IR beam keyboards can finally allow hotseat to happen as it should be!

the koreans used the mini optical for bw because its 400 dpi were plenty for the 640x480 screen size of bw. but for sc2, the 400 dpi of the logitech mini optical surely dont cut it. i can guarantee u that no successful sc2 pro will ever use a mouse below 800 dpi. most will probably use something in the range between 1k and 2.5k dpi.
