Looking like it does in this picture: + Show Spoiler +I know FruitDealer use this mouse (or at least used to) with the black "control friendly" grip. Was interesting how one guy used it without the grips on. I tried it and kind of liked it. Comparing it to small mice like Steelseries Kinzu and Razer Salmose I actually preferred the "hacked" g9x ^^ Won't be using it though as mice that small hurts my hands but to anyone liking small mice - try it out  EDIT: Oh god, I just LOVE how the mouse feels without any of the grips on. It's like the high-DPI version of Logitech Optical Mini.
you need really small hands to use it without the grip i'm 6'1" anything but the widegrip on the G9x is unacceptable!

How's the tracking on that thing? I'm not worried about DPI, but I am worried about skipping/odd behaviour at high movement speeds, or negative/positive acceleration.
I play Quake 3CPM as well, so any mouse that I use must be able to at least match my Deathadder in that regard.

However im currently waiting to buy one of these. The Cyborg Rat.7
+ Show Spoiler +
It is expensive but its fully adjustable in almost every aspect and has weights in it which you can swap around. 5200DPI with the choice between 4 different settings which i think are 1600, 3400, 4800 and 5200.

I didn't really want to advertise the mouse as a high tech gaming product, you seem to have gotten the wrong impression there. I just liked the design and remembered having seen it in this mouse thread before; that the person I quoted actively uses it for SC2 is an added bonus. You might want to PM him if you're interested in technical details / feedback, as I'll only be using the mouse for work and won't monitor pixel skipping or anything of the likes. Pretty solid performance so far when browsing or working through documents, but that's about all I can say .).

I believe IM.Mvp uses it without any grips as well.

Just wanted to post since I saw this just now posted up on EVGA forums. Crazpc.com is going out of business and has few decent mouses which are now 50% off when you get to checkout page. Just heads up for anyone needing a reason to pick up a mouse they might carry right now. Enjoy to anyone who picks up a new mouse!

I own/owned huge number of mouses and i could say that is my fetish ^^ (from some really old mouses i don't even know their names to mx500, mx518, g500, g1, g3, g9, copperhead, deathadder, lachesis, some wireless shit, magic mouse, mighty mouse) ATM there is 1 that suits my grip perfectly and its abyssus. It has no annoying thumb buttons that i never use, same optical sensor as DA and its low weight feels amazing for RTS, together with low-profile shape that really feels comfortable for my hand. However, There are few cons I would love to get better; shiny lower part of mouse that gets dirty easily which you have to clean pretty often cause you can feel dirt on it when holding mouse. also tracking on some surfaces that are not designed for mouse (like desk, blankets etc...) but with mousepads it tracks perfectly (tested on goliathus speed/control, qck+, func, icemat and some cheap pads). Abyssus minimalistic design stand out over any other mouse for me

I used a Razer deathadder forever, then it died a terrible death, I got a Razer Lachesis, it's great for left handed users, but I don't like how you can't use all the buttons on it for keybinds in various games with just razer drivers ><

MIcrosoft is the best mouse, very sturdy and with a really nice definition, if u are in windows XP u can overclock the sample rate, otherwise its still great. Why acceleration? play in a bigger surface, that gives u more pressition

Steelseries Kinzu. It's so incredibly cheap, it's well built, it's steelseries so I'm confident in customer service/support. Tracking is very good, SC2 has no need for more than 3 buttons (might be a problem for mmo players). I even have big meaty claws for hands but I find it comfortable for some reason. Also ambidextrous.

I am using the G9 without any grip.

I bought the deathadder which I completely regret buying, $50 that won't be put to good use. It has 5600dpi capabilities but I set it to 900. I should have just gotten a standard office mouse. Honestly for SC the best mouse is just the one you are most comfortable with, same with the keyboard..

lovin the razer deathadder

I was using the deathadder, but now that I'm strictly playing Starcraft I'm using the abyssus. The lighter weight and lower profile feels great for Starcraft . First time I think I've been really happy with a mouse right away. I'm also not getting the jitter problems that people have reported with the abyssus, which I've heard was possibly fixed by Razer in the last batch.

Took me forever to find and buy this mouse. I think I spent about a year looking but I finally got it.
Me Gusta, i have the football skin. I like the lady bug skin though=DDDD

best g series mouse by far imo, probably my 2nd favourite, to bad my has some random dc issues (probably cable problem, but it lasted really long and worked flawlessly till few months ago), but its really great and simple mouse, minimalistic look without many extra buttons, feels really solid (g9 for example feels loose cause of their plastic grips that never fit perfectly, its much better to play with it without grips but its not comfortable as some other mouses) and comfortable in hand, for that price u cant go wrong with G1

The beautiful Steelseries Xai

I got a Cyborg RAT 7. Fully adjustable mouse. Very similar to the G9X. Pretty good feel.
Anyone else using this mouse? Doesn't seem like this mouse is very popular.
