You can start with a SteelSeries QcK+, or QcK Heavy, depending on if you want the pad to be thicker. Personally I don't like these because they're pretty rough and give me friction burns on my wrist, so if you're worried about that happening to you there's other options like Glorious XL, Razer Gigantus, Zowie G-SR, HyperX Fury S (this one is also rough for me but not as bad as QcK), and there's many more but that's a few off the top of my head. Some are a bit pricey though. If you really want some good info and help from more people, make a post on /r/mousereview saying what games you play and what kind of features, if any, you're looking for. They help me out with mouse related stuff all the time, and I'm also pretty active there too haha.

More than likely the QcK+ will be plenty for you as long as it isn't too rough for you. Seems to be an uncommon problem, but I have talked to other people with the issue. Just try to find a pad that's at least 40cm (400mm) or 16in or so wide, that's the most important thing. Some people swear by the Allsop Raindrop XL even though it's a bit on the small side for me. If you're around 900-1000 eDPI you should be fine with this one, I like it a lot, just wish it had a couple more inches in each dimension.

I have this mousepad (the CompLexity team version) coming in tomorrow if you want to wait and see if I recommend it.

Apologies for the wall of text, I'm kind of into this stuff, probably too much haha.

$20. Metal frame, interchangeable side panels. It uses the ADNS-3090 optical sensor, which is somewhat older than current high end optical sensors, but still miles better than laser. Here's a video from Logitech talking about Optical vs. Laser sensors.

with this mousepad for $10, you should be able to lower your sensitivity enough to take advantage of the extra space.


>Even lower than 800 DPI? I imagine turning quickly enough becomes an issue...I'm not doubting your reputability but play styles certainly vary.

DPI isn't how sensitivity is measured, nor does high dpi equate to more accurate tracking. (long video from a Logitech engineer explaining why is here) Most sensors have a native dpi that they perform the best at. Sensitivity is calculated as a function of mouse dpi combined with in-game sensitivity, and is measured in centimeters for a 360 turn. For example, my hipfire is ~28cm while my ADS is ~44cm. You can calculate this at www.mouse-sensitivity.com.

Turning isn't an issue as you get used to it. An overwhelming majority of high skill/competitive FPS players use low mouse sensitivity. Here's some over the shoulder footage of cypher, a pro Quake player. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEwfFBaCEio

Go buy yourself a bigger one.

Cloth pads are great. I think 99% of fps pros use them. They can range from high to very low friction and they're easier to move. Here's a pretty cheap and semi-large one, highly recommended.

that one? i guess a larger pad is better so a xl might be good.

u/BrewingHeavyWeather · 1 pointr/buildapc

That's what I have right now (because my cat had recently kneaded too much on my previous one, and I was at Best Buy). I've also used an Allsop XL, and some Xtrac and Razers, over the years. As long as it is woven cloth on top, thick enough to be comfortable for the part of my arm resting on the table, and is big enough to never accidentally reach the edge of, I'm good. The thick Allsop XL was definitely my favorite, though, being made of thick rubber, and I may buy another to have around, for future cat issues (I'd get 5-10 years from them each, if they weren't cat-friendly :)).

Oh god, please don't get a QcK. It's just a regular, generic mousepad with a logo.

Get an Allsop XL, it's much better and will save you some money.

u/CanIsDumb · 1 pointr/GlobalOffensive

I got the lua because I didn't want to spend $50 on a mouse but if you have the money, I've heard very good things about the deathadder, I got a really big cheap mousepad off amazon for $8 or something.

I cant seem to find the black one on amazon any more but this one's good.

Do not fucking buy a QcK whatever you do. So I went a bit too ham with mouse pads and own most JP artisans from a few years ago, a bunch of different mouses, and then I had a fucking 24x36 inch alunium plate coated with ceramic Cerokate mouse pad made for me. A fucking custom made mousepad. I paid 300+ fucking dollars to have a custom mousepad made for me. You know what I use the most now? A raindropper XL mousepad. I have a few of these now. I prefer a 12 dollar mousepad compared to this 300 dollar custom made mousepad.

The major downside of them is that they're a bit small (compared to stupid big current mousepads). I get around this by using a sensitivoty toggle.



If a raindropper XL is big enough for you then it is the absolute best mousepad you can get. Nothing will ever compare. That being said, make sure it is big enough. Whatever dot clicking advantage you have will disappear if you're constantly struggling with swipes and recentering and whatever else bullshit arises from it.


If the raindropper is too small then you should absolutely consider any other mousepad.
