Hi guys ive been using a deathadder for a while now. Ive tried a few different pads but am yet to find something im comfortable with.

Ive used a steelseries one that has a cloth sort of top, and it was a bit too sticky/didnt let my mouse move as much as id like.

Im now using http://store.razerzone.com/store/razerusa/en_US/pd/productID.169419600/categoryId.35208900

and i find it a bit too slippery, i dont feel that accurate.

does anyone have a recommendation for a good pad for that specific mouse?

thanks, i know its a very specific question, hopefully someone can help.

steelseries is cloth, i had a rocketfish metal one from best buy that i really didnt like using the deathadder on. partly because i figured the metal was wearing the teflon feet quicker, partly because it just didnt feel great moving the mouse around. a little too "loose"

you dont find the cloth one moves around your table or stretches on the top at all? maybe i should give my steel series one another go, it was pretty cheap though. its the one with the picture of the marine on it loool.

havent noticed anything like that. honestly goin from the rocketfish to the steelseries was amazing. i paid like 12 bucks for the steelseries on amazon, i dunno maybe it's just personal preference :D

I'm using a QCK and it's fine for me. Got it for $10 off of Amazon.

I like the "speed" type mouse pads so I'm using like a $15 one from CM Storm.

Although, for the longest time I used my DA w/ a QcK mini.

You want a cloth pad for the deathadder. I personally use a puretrak, it glides great, its huge (comes in diff sizes, I got huge one) and the pad doesnt move an inch on the table.

I think the DA will work with either cloth or metal, just depends on what you are used to. I tried mine with a glossy pad and I didn't like how the mouse felt it was flying all over the place. I think any normal cloth mouse pad should work fine. I use the SteelSeries Qck Mini and it works fine for me. Not super comfortable but I feel like it gives me control (I play on medium to high sensitivity).

Steel series QcK heavy. Will be the longest lasting mouse pad you will ever use.

Using the Roccat Sota, quite pleased with it. Nice surface feel and you can wipe dust off easily.

Any soft pad will do. Personally i use the Razer Kabuto. Readily available for 15-20$ cheap enough to be replaced every 6 months. Had mine for 3 months and it still glides nice with no frays on the the outer edge fabric.

Steel series QcK. Its not an overpriced gimmick like most of the razer mouse pads.

Its very soft, very smooth, very good price.

They have an extra thick version which is nice too. "QcK Heavy"

got the QcK for like 6$ on amazon a while back after using the fUnc surface 1030 for 5-6 years. After years of being inaccurate with other mice I feel like I never miss a click now at 200 apm. Probably will never change from DeathAdder + QcK

I'm also using a Steelseries QCK, but I have a generic mouse pad with a wrist rest underneath it. For me, the wrist rest really helps in stability as I like super-high sensitivity.

The only gaming pad I've seen with this is the Razer vespula, but that just seemed too big/expensive for me to want to buy. I would never use that much surface.

I have a 3.5g deathadder and use the razer megasoma pad. I like it a lot, before, I had a razer kabuto and hated it (it wore down in like 3 weeks or so).
