Mouse deal: kinzu v2 pros on sale at woot.com, $15 (normally $45):

http://tech.woot.com/plus/steelseries-kinzu-v2-pro-edition-optical-gaming-mouse

(I realize that some people don't like the sensor on this thing, but it's otherwise a good deal on a fairly solid mouse.)

Has anyone seen the Razer Salmosa for sale online recently? On eBay they're only selling the (smaller) asia version of this mouse.

If all hope is lost, I'd gladly take some hot tips for a mouse that's lightweight and has a shape similar to the salmosa. I have big hands and use claw-grip, so the salmosa is basically a LMO in my hand.
If only those pigs could fly away..

The Razer Abyssus is very similar, basically a newer version of the Salmosa. It is the exact same size, the buttons are shaped slightly different and have a sharp edge, and there is no angle snapping in the sensor.

Look here (Abyssus on the far right, Salmosa second from right): http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/32/kinzu.jpg/

I already had a logitech g9x and its software... and still have the software... (and with the software I can't get dpi values without having the mouse) but I don't have it anymore... and I wanted to get the same dpi... that's why I wanted to know the default dpi... to get back to the same dpi with another mouse...

Well I've been toying around with the thought of getting a new mouse solely for the purpose of playing SC2. It's been a long journey of research and disappointment in not finding the "perfect" mouse. I've been a long fan of Logitech's products for years... I've used one of their basic optical mice, mx510, mx518 and I've been using a g5. While I was doing my research I realized that I am a "fingertip" user. So then I felt that I should deviate from the "ergonomic" designs and use a smaller mouse with a lighter feel. It finally came down between the Logitech g100s and the Razer Abyssus. I found it for about $30 from Amazon and bit the bullet and bought myself the Abyssus. I hope I made the right choice.

1. What's your grip style?
Claw that is very palm like
2. What's your sensitivity?
1200 DPI on 1920x1080 with no accel and standard windows sensativity
3. What's your maximum budget?
Whatever
4. Do you want additional buttons?
I like one side button for my thumb to easy use.
5. What games do you play?
Sc2 only.
6. Do you mind angle snapping?
No angle snapping. Though read #7. I would sac this to get what's in #7.
7. Other relevant information:
I have fairly aggressive tendonitis. I have tried several mice. The abyssus, Xai, Ikairu, and g9. The g9 was the best by far (used no weight and either no casing or the rough casing). The thing I have discovered that helps me the most is easy to press mouse buttons. One that require little force and very little travel distance. I used a cheap no name mouse for awhile at a non sc setting and noticed zero pain even after hours. I expriemented and made boxes during my free time constant... Basically made sc2 mouse movements. No pain no nothing.

Any nice claw gaming mice with extremely easy to press mouse buttons?

Deathadder has extremely easy to press buttons.

On another note, does anyone know of a mouse with a similiar shape to the sensei with a good sensor that isn't 50+$

I have been using Claw/Finger grip on a Steelseries Xai for the last 2 years, prior to that I was using a Logitech G5 with a more palm style grip.

I wish to have a go at going back to that style and mixing it up a bit in general as it where and have been looking at the Deathadder 2013 to do this. I do have a concern about its size however.

In terms of hand size id be 6.5in approximately from tip of middle finger to where the blue line (ligament) is on this diagram http://www.thehelpinghand.com/images/cts-1a.gif as a guide. Given this would the DA be worth a try ?

I'm going to be purchasing a Zowie EC1 eVo mouse soon. I will also need to replace my mousepad. I have a Goliathus, and it's served me well for a few years, but the top is peeling now. Does anyone recommend a good cloth mousepad? I would like one that's maybe slightly softer on the wrist.

You should answer: What kind of sens you use/will use (dpi, any multipliers, any accel, screen resolution) and also: On a scale of 1-10, with 0 being "impossible to move" and 10 being ice, how glidy do you want the pad to be?

Most mousepad reccomendations (mice too, and hardware in general, maybe even things in general) are "i have this and it's not awful so buy one" (:

There's quite a bit of choice out there

I think it's a great mouse, it served me well for many years, i don't have any way to measure right now but i think my hands are bigger, and for claw/fingertip i think it holds me back a bit on osu, being too long, big/heavy in general, perhaps combined with the slippery slides on the 3.5g (2013 adds grips to the sides.. but far too small ones)

It's a really great mouse but it just seems designed around palm grip (which i dont understand, at a high level of mouse control it seems to me like palm is simply inferior to other grip types?) It's flaws would be though build quality, i hear a lot of people have broken deathadders, and i think the 2013 still has bad setup on the underside of the mouse with the feet not being tall/big enough etc. You'd have to look into it though.

In terms of easy to control, light claw/fingertip, i'm still looking into the coolermaster storm spawn and xornet, probably holding out til spawn v2 (no idea when it releases, but spawn v1 is discontinued in europe and xornet is cheap cheap cheap, great value but worse sensor)

primarily for this reason: + Show Spoiler +
[image loading]


Very hard to resist that grip. You might be interested in it, but it's a small mouse shell with a rather unique shape. No major issues on spawn AFAIK since the lag issue got fixed (one of the best sensors available)

I promise also, Coolermaster is not paying me I just like their product in this case.
