What mouse should I purchase?

by x3NJa • 18 Oct 2010, 13:52 • Journals
So, as a result of yesterdays fantastic cuploss I nerdraged and finally ended the misery of my dear old Deathadder which stuck together with only tape and glue for almost 8 months.

Now I want to buy a new mouse, today. I have owned a diamondback, copperhead, deathadderfrom razer and g5, mx518, mx310 from logitech. my all time favourite is copperhead but i'm not sure if i will get it tonight.


so i need you to recommend me some mice and pads since i want to start with updating everything, my old one stinks like hell.

the winrar of recommendations gets a cookie!

edit - i dont want a deathadder tho, cause i just had it so i want a change


WHO DARED TO CHANGE THE TITLE OF THIS JOURNAL? IT WAS "WAT MOUZ TO BUY"

There has always been some kind of "battle" between MX518 and DeathAdder.
I guess you should choose between these two, or else just pick one yourself. (:

x3NJa 18 Oct 2010, 15:01
Well I wasn't really fond of mx518 tbh, I liked G5 tho. atm I'm thinking between Copperhead or G9

Yea, well you gotta admit MX and DA are the most ones people are referring to as the "best mice". I've been using the MX for 2 years now, and I'm getting kinda bored of it, gotta purchase the DA asap, just to try it and to see if there is any difference.

I just found out my new favourite some time ago when we went to shop and bought 5 new mouses with Sanda. Anyway, I won't give u my secret, I can just give the name of the 2nd best. Pm me if interested :)

btw, just a random detail, copperhead is surely the worst of he list u mentioned :D laser mouses aren't good for gaming anyway

You don't need a nice mouse to play Armadon... you just keep spamming spikes.

i had copperhead and mx518, both rocked.

Muratt 18 Oct 2010, 18:25
get a wmo1.1/ime1.1/ime3.0 cheap at prize good tracking on all almost all surfaces ;) mx518 is not bad tough and it has a good customer service :) but it comes to personal preferences some say DA is the best some mx518 , ime3.0 etc....other 5000+ dpi mice are marketing stuff and a huge dick right in the ass! so my advice is stay away from them;)

Spirea 18 Oct 2010, 20:24
wmo + ime 1.1 are pretty good but ime3.0 doesn't fit to that list :)

I was using an MX518 for the past 2 years, before that generic shit mice. So it was different going from a slightly heavier, primarily palm grip mouse to the much lighter and smaller kinzu. I must say, I do like it, alot. I never really gave claw grip a chance but its fantastic with this mouse. The original feet were shit for me on the Puretrak Talent, but I had purchased the Puretrak glides too and they're incredibly good on the mousepad.
