Would not reccomend a razer. Steelseries Kinzu is a great mouse, and its not that expensive. The Steelseries Ikari is amazing if you want to plash the cash, that is my current mouse and I absolutely love it.

For SC2 the microsoft intellimouse explorer is nice. I mean honestly you dont need an expensive mouse for SC2, it just has to be comfortable. Many korean pros, esp bw pros play with very cheap mice/keyboards.

Steelseries all the way, razer ones never last long enough... I bought two in my life and will never do the same mistake again...

A mouse would definitely be more significant than a keyboard for gaming. I got a refurb deathadder for 20 bucks recently and its worked great. I would avoid the kinzu, although you can get it new for around 20 bucks now. I would not recommend the G9x over a G500 or G700 because the shape of the G9x can be awkward for some people and takes a while to get used to. But if you try the G9x and like it, you get it for 40 bucks from the logitech website with a dented box discount.

I personally recommend either a deathadder or an abyssus for smaller hands.

Deathadder, had one for years now and most of my gaming friends have them aswell. Never had a problem at all and it is the best mouse i'ved used.

Razer Salmosa Pro Edition has been a great mouse for me these 4-5 months that I've had it. It's very simple, but has very fast and fluid movements. Also, my hands arnt exactly tiny, and I've never felt that the mouse was too small (even though i use a fingertip grip) Also they're quite cheap on ebay (~25 USD)

Nobody here yet has mentioned the 1 flaw of the Deathadder:

The side buttons are attached to the mouse by a long piece of plastic (on the inside of the mouse). When you push the button, the plastic bends, kinda like a spring. If you constantly spam the crap out of the side mouse buttons, the buttons will get bent inward from the plastic losing its rigidity and not feel right after a while (we're talking months.... they'll get "mushy" and lose their crispness... but only if you spam a whole lot)

If you don't abuse the side buttons the Deathadder is very nice though

I have a logitech MX518, had it for 4 years now, and it's still fine. I'd buy logitech any time again, they make great mice, and they are affordable.

The only thing I can find about the G13 is some sort of keyboard joystick thing?! see here

are you really going to play SC2 with that?

I just bought a Razer Death Adder and returned it the next day. I saw no one else in reviews mentioning my problem, but the left mouse button is EXTREMELY sensitive and when i pull my mouse down (doesn't matter what "grip type" I use) the button gets clicked every time, but especially in FPS games when I pull my mouse down and to the left, I end up unloading half a clip and now everyone knows where I am....great. In SC2 it basically kept selecting the wrong units and such, also I felt like it caused a lot of wrist strain (probably because of the weird way I had to hold it to attempt to avoid accidental clicks, which happened anyway.
Razer DA is NOT worth the price.

I think I have my Deathadder for 2-3 years now and it's great, best mouse I ever owned and even after trying all those new Razer, Steelseries, etc, mice I still prefer the Razer DeathAdder.

I've had the Death Adder for months now, no problems. Pretty sure you just got a dud.

Personally I am loving my G500, it has an awesome grip surface, side buttons function well for just about anything, and the ability to change sensitivities on the mouse allows me to go from wielding an MP5 to sniping. The cord is also really nice and durable, and the scroll wheel and mouse have never ever given me any problems despite the amount of gaming I do.
Can you ever argue in favor of something without first proving it?

I got a Razer Death Adder simply to support those that support e-sports. Though I haven't opened it yet because my old mouse still works...

Salmosa is the best mouse I've ever owned. Also have a Kinzu and they are cheap now.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826249038


When the Kinzu was announced, I was pretty hyped. I wanted a small, no-frills mouse like the WMO or IMO 1.1.

After it was released, people did some tests and it turned out to have terrible negative acceleration depending on the speed you moved it. Turns out the sensor was quite bad (the Xai on the other hand performed amazing). Almost everyone I had talked to with it said they wouldn't recommend it... has it been updated?

I would definitely go with a new mouse over a new keyboard. Something wired - I recently bought a wireless gaming mouse after reading quite a bit about how technology had caught up to the point where wired vs. wireless was a non-issue. After trying it for about a week, I switched back to my old Logitech MX310 ($30) which I would highly recommend, as I just couldn't get the necessary control with the wireless mouse.

If you're pressed for cash and are a college student, I suggest applying for the 1 yr free trial of Amazon Prime for Students, and picking up a Razer Deathadder. For the price, it's going to serve you many years, especially if you're not one to throw it across the wall or anything like that.

Amazon Prime will secure you a fast shipping method, and it's fairly handy to have. Free 2 day shipping, 5 bucks overnight.

Honestly, some of the pros ( like weMadeFox ) uses a logitech optical mini. That's right, a 5 dollar one. However, if the intent of the mouse is not for Starcraft only, then I would recommend either a Razer, Steelseries Lasers, Mionix ( new company with excellent mouses ).

I know for a fact that Flash and the KT team uses Zowie mouses http://www.zowiegear.com/
