The best mouse is the one you are comfortable with. If you need a high DPI, get one of the fancy laser mice. If you don't like a really really fast mouse, get a generic optical and forget about it.

A lot of old school SC1 pro's use ball mice because that is what they are used to.

I picked up a Logitech G9X on the weekend and started tweaking the DPI settings (which can be easily selected on the fly) in tandem with SC2's sensitivity. Coming from an MX300 this mouse is far more accurrate but getting the DPI just right for setting 2 (I reserved 3 as high DPI for Desktop use) took a bit.

In general use whatever mouse feels comfortable in your hand, has a decent poll rate on the USB port and you should be good .

MX518 is nothing like his mouse.

MS Blue/1.1a is an ambidextrous mouse with a high palm.

OP, search next time. There's plenty of mice threads already.

Kinzu/Habu and Xai all have near identical shapes, but they also all have terrible sensors.

Among ambidextrous mice with good sensors, there's really only the Razer Abyssus and Logitech G1, and neither have the high palm. Still, they're both pretty excellent mice so you might want to try them at a local Best Buy/Fry's.

EDIT: Terrible is too strongly worded. Their sensors just aren't as good as the optical sensors found in Last edit: 2010-09-28 14:46:29
the above mice.


In Steelseries Xai Is it bad sensor?

It's not as good as the optical sensor Razer uses in the Deathadder and Abyssus.

Kinzu's is bad, Ikari optical's is bad, Ikari laser has negative acceleration and Xai has a bit less of it. Especially for RTS games, you may not even notice the Xai's hardware acceleration.

I've heard Abyssus and new DA sensor is pretty horrible :/ Jitters on QcK and no firmware upgrading (for the Abyssus at least).

Stuck using a G1 until someone makes a decent mouse with > 450 dpi (though I'm going to see how the Asian Salmosa goes, but even before it arrives I know it won't be perfect due to angle snapping, and I've heard bad liftoff?) >_>

G1 Has a prediction?

It does, but all other factors considered it's my best option for now. I also have a Ktec 9500+ but that seems to skip pixels :/

LMO also has a prediction, but almost all progamer use it. Prediction for the SC is not important.

I've always used and loved this but the the left click is getting screwed up: [image loading]

I'm using a vx nano now but ordered a logitech mini optical. My apm is actually higher with the vx nano for some reason by my control feels pretty bad. Hopefully the mini optical is like my old logitech because I can't find that for sale anywhere.

I use a Razer Salmosa (not the Korea Pro-Gaming Edition). It's really great, mainly because it's a pretty small mouse, so it fits my hand nicely. I use the 800dpi setting (the other option is 1800dpi) with a sensitivity level of 6.

If I had the money, I'd go and buy something ricer like a Logitech G9x.

high dpi (or more accurately, cpi) is SO overrated. The best thing you can do is get a teflon mouse pad if you really want to be lame about your computer peripherals

It is overrated, but it is still really important for some people like myself who run at 1600x1200 or even higher.

At this point it's pretty rare to need more than 3-4k CPI though, so if mice keep going higher than they are now, THEN it becomes more than just overrated.

nice grip, good precision, good size (not too big not too small) ...
a bit pricey but well worth it ..

I bought the Abyssus one week ago. Inreach convince me :p

What dpi/sensivity do you use ?

I was at 3600 dpi but I reduce it to 1800 with a sensivity of 10.

I have a eXactMat from razer. The goliath is better ?

as long as the mouse doesnt jump or skip around with rapid movements ANY mouse works thats comfortable for you.

The only variable might be some mice allow you to interchange weights - and some have extra buttons on the side and such which if not used in games, useful for web browsing forward and back and etc.

what matters more IMO once you have a decent mouse is the mousepad. Getting a nice highend mousepad thats like teflon coated or whatever makes your mouse movements feel like your floating... so get whatever mouse you want, then get a good mousepad. Careful as some mousepads do not work with some older optical mouses.
