I've been looking for a light (not heavier than 80-90g), RTS-minded mouse, In the ~$30 price range
that would suit my small hands.
Honestly I've tried searching but most lists/charts seem quite out dated.
Maybe anyone here has a recommendation for me? if so that would be greatly appreciated.

Those might be hard to find under $30. You could give the Logitech G100 without the S a try.

Xornet

Spawn was at $33 on newegg last week iirc. It's the xornet shell with better sensor (and worth the buy 100% if it's available, though version 2 is released soon hopefully)

lol $29.99 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826570012

I checked out the G100s and it seems pretty sweet.
I found this guy on ebay
Anyone know if he's legit?
oh and forgot to add, sadly Newegg isn't an option for me.

The CM Storm Spawn is 142g though...but more importantly it's the $1.99 shipping that's the deal breaker.

That sounds waaaay off to me. Few seconds google -
Most mouse companies include the weight of the cord in those numbers. The spawn weighs much less at 85g~.


I wrote that they were probably including cable weight in that number and that it was probably off by like 40-70g, then edited post to take it back because it seemed a big bigger than i thought - but i was still right

Spawn is probably king of every mouse listed on this page - unless you don't like the grip, as it's a pretty unique approach to a lightweight claw/fingertip mouse

Oh man, looks like the G100s' sensor malfunctions easily.
I think I'll get the G100 then, it looks solid and suits my needs, at a great price.
Does anyone know of an ebay seller that sells a genuine G100?

you dont want a g100, you want a g100s.


i dont know what these FPS players do with their mice, but my g100s always works 100%. It has almost perfect precision on my cloth pad where the sensei and the lachesis failed to work properly.

The G100 only works at low DPI and has worse precision.



I dont know how you play SC, but i doubt you need 5 m/s mouse acceleration, which is where supposedly the g100s fails. I tried to make my mouse fail with wild movements, but i only ended up hurting myself.

g100 and g100s both have such issues, they're mostly fine for sc2 - g100s is preferred. If you're on the quest for a perfect mouse.. join the club

I dont know how you play SC, but i doubt you need 5 m/s mouse acceleration, which is where supposedly the g100s fails.


I thought it was low 2m/s range, which isn't enough for arm-style FPS gaming (which most people looking for good aim and practice, improvement will adjust to)

2m/s is still mostly enough for sc2. Low sens in sc2 is 3-4 inches to cross screen. Low sens in FPS is ~25-40cm to turn 180 degrees - there's much more bursty acceleration and time to get up to speed

But yea - as for mouse sensor problems? g100s is actually pretty good. There's far far worse - most people ignore or don't notice them (to a surprising extent)

g100s malfunction is high enough that no one outside of the seriously low sens gamers will hit it. g100s is one of the only mice that is regarded as a close to perfect mouse by a lot of the more finnicky people on overclock.net which if you spend any time there is quite an accolade.

Spawn is great too if you can get used to the shape, I used mine for a year before switching to the g100s and loved it but I just never got used to gripping with my pinky.

1. What's your grip style?
Claw/finger, probably some hybrid between the two.

2. What's your sensitivity?
Medium (playing with 800dpi setting)

3. What's your maximum budget?
Nothing specific, most important is to get something that'll work great for me.

4. Do you want additional buttons?
Two thumb buttons are always a +.

5. What games do you play?
Mostly LoL but it's a mixed bag. SC2, MMORPG, regular rpgs etc.

6. Do you mind angle snapping?
Preferably not.

7. Other relevant information:
I've liked the DeathAdder and G9x in the past. The Abyssus was quite ok as well and I have a Razer Naga 2014 that I've actually gotten used to, but it really doesn't perform 100% for me in LoL even, MMO's are more than adequate.

I've looked around a bit and right now I'm feeling drawn towards the Roccat Kone Pure Optical.

The right click is really soft and comfortable, especially in comparison to the left click. I have no idea why Razer made its left click this way. It seriously tires my right index finger.

I've been trying to get a Razer Diamondback for years... It seems like such a wonderful mouse. It's a shame Razer discontinued it. :/

Well, I've been thinking about the Steel Series Sensei or the Razer Taipan. Perhaps even the Razer Abyssus... (I use claw grip by the way). I'd appreciate any input.

I've been using the Sensei for about 1.5 year now, and i'm quite happy with it apart from the native acceleration (that is apparently 3-4%) which I've finally realised bothered me quite a bit. It's very big mouse, awesome for all grips, although I think it's optimized for Claw Grip usage. The top, silver color gets quite dirty and wears pretty quick, however If you wipe a washcloth around it softly once in a while the dirtyness isn't so bad and the small wearing isn't that big of a deal, especially when you play because obviously, you're not looking at it. Good mouse, but not worth the 70 euros I laid down for it.


I see... I suppose the Abyssus might be the best choice.

Ya know, the same thing happens to me every several months... I feel a sudden pang of regret and start looking at photos of the Diamondback online. Why didn't I buy one, or two, or three when I had the chance? That design was perfect. I've been looking everywhere but I just can't find one. With so many people screaming for a "new edition" of the Diamondback, why won't Razer make it happen? The DA is considered to be its replacement, but it's just too large for that.

This question might seem odd, but I'm desperate: is there any way I could contact some company and ask them to custom build a mouse for me? I'd be willing to spend hundreds for a Diamondback design with an upgraded sensor.

Hey Teamliquid mouse enthusiast !

So I bought the Zowie mico a while ago it was working pretty well but then the right button on the mouse suddenly broke.

I opened it up to see if something was stuck in there but then I quickly noticed that this white thingy on the right side was broken. You couldn't push it in anymore .
Picture for reference [image loading]

Since I like the mico very much is there any way to fix it ?

Thanks in advance.

If you can solder it should be no problem, you would have to buy a new switch though.

This actually isn't true. From an accuracy POV, better in the sense of better DPI steps? yes but the Abyssus sensor has a lot of issues that the g100s doesn't.
