I love love love love love my Diamondback 3G. It feels great in my hand and it's nice and responsive. I'm gonna keep an eye out for a backup if I come across one.

Word of advice:
anyone post that refers to DPI/CPI as accuracy doesn't know much about this stuff. =P

I got a razer salmosa due to its very cheap price along side my Microsoft intelli mouse, both work very well with SC2, if id be playing any other game id go with my salmosa...
Keyboard i would go for the very cheap Logitech K120 (can be found under 10$ and is great)
or the baller Filco Majestouch brown switchs for 120$, anything in between is wasting money.

I'm in love with my Logitech MX518.

5 years on, it's still working perfectly. I'm thinking I should buy more of them so I have a lifetime supply - I love it that much. Then again, this one might be all I need - it just keeps going and going and going...

i guess the 9(?) extra buttons are more or less useless, but as long as they don't annoy you it doesn't matter at all imho...

i could imagine some people might find it a bit too heavy as many people seem to prefer more simple and light mice for RTS... (no idea how heavy it actually is, but i could imagine all those thumb-buttons add some extra weight)

replaced my steelseries ikari laser with a new steelseries xai... lets just say my ikari is in my closet collecting dust!

seriously, the xai is such a better mouse. Ikari is way way too big and slow for fps/RTS games

I keep changing between G9x and Salmosa! I have used the Salmosa for a long time but I feel the build quality is crap and ultimately the shape isn't very confortable, but it's soo light which is really a plus. at first the g9x was very heavy but now I it's not as big of a problem both because I probably got more muscle and also because I started to hold it more like the mouse is shaped, like a fingertip grip with palm support.

I use a razer copperhead. It's a great mouse in my opinion. Very large buttons and a comfortable shape for my clawing grip.

What's the difference between any mouse in this thread, and a decade old ball mouse, for playing an RTS?

anyone else who can't stand microsoft's "standard mice" because you can't comfortably lift them at all because of the very "slopey" shape?

I've always played on BW with the good old classic Microsoft wheel mouse optical :
[image loading]

But now I play on a 1980*1080 game so I need higher DPI... I took my DeathAdder who I didn't like it, but with some adaptation it is a really good mouse.

I'm interested in a classic slight mouse as the Steelseries Kinzu or the Razer Abyssus cauz I miss my microsoft wheel mouse... But I admit that the Razer Deathadder rox !

I just replaced an old intellimouse 3a with a razor deathadder. The shape and size are pretty close and they have buttons in the same places. The DA is very smooth and very comfortable, a fitting replacement.

I'm another lover of the MX518. It is the first and only gaming mouse that I've ever bought. Obviously, it's lasted for a long time, and it's still going strong after . . . close to 3.5 or 4 years, I think (but the left button, in particular, is starting to show it's age with an interesting, high-pitched "click" sound apart from what you normally hear when I hit it, no malfunctions, though).

I originally got it because I have long fingers (piano fingers, if you're familiar with the term) and liked to put my palm on the mouse, so Logitech mice are very well made for that type of grip. I've, of course, switched to a more finger-tip grip style for SC2, but I still love the mouse. It's a solid choice and is one of the cheapest ones out there nowadays.

lol I actually use my naga too. I use the side buttons for my hot keyed units and the slight incline on the end of the clickers (unsure if that is technical name) actually helps me click faster.
