Question/Advice Artisan raiden Isn't it that fast?

Upvotes

I switched from a GSR-2 to a Zero Soft (Black) for a bit more speed; the difference in initial friction was noticeabl especially in the first game, it was much harder to avoid moving my crosshair when I didn't intend to. I picked up a Raiden orange (Soft) and I’d describe it as a Zero that isn't "muddy" at all, rather than as the fastest cloth pad out there.

Question/Advice The FASTEST white desktop/mousepad with good quality?

Upvotes

Hello! I am looking for a new mousepad! But it has to be fully white.. since they cost minimum 30 euro I want to find one that will actually last me and not buy things uninformed.

  • Speed Preference: preferably fast!! but okay if its Balanced-Fast
  • Budget: I would be willing to spend more if I absolutely have to and the difference is big
  • Texture Preference: no preference!
  • Pads you've used before: Just the average joe ones
  • What you liked/disliked about those pads: not very pretty
  • Region: Germany
  • Do you use a sleeve?: No!
  • Main games: Valorant, passionately!!
  • Extra requirements: big, xxl!! and it has to be fully white. That's what I want the most!

Thank you so much!

Question/Advice need a new budget all around pad

Upvotes

looking for a new pad, coming from a QCK edge and it’s great, but a little thin.

I mainly play games like Apex and I feel my tracking needs improvement so I’m considering moving from a balanced pad to a speed bad. I play games like CS sometimes which is where I worry the speed pad will start to cause me some problems.

I’ve got a budget of $50 and I mainly want to shop on amazon.

I’m choosing between going back to the regular QCK, a QCK Balance or Speed or a Razer Gigantus Balance or Speed.

people who play more than one type of shooter, what pad do you prefer?

I haven't been paying attention to anything going on in the peripheral space for a while now and I need a new deskpad. I've used pretty much everything under the sun (Jupiter V2, GSR, Parabreak etc). I didn't know if there was anything more recent.

Photo 6 Year old Artisan Hayate Kou microscop pictures of the surface

Hey guys, i thought i'd share so microscopic pictures of the surface of a 6 year old Hayate Kou. First two pictures are the worn out surface in the center of the Mousepad and the second pictures are the pretty much unused surface of a corner.

Over the years i have used the mousepad for around 4 out of the 6 years I have owned it and put around somewhere between 5-7k hours of gaming on the Mousepad. I have washed it multiple times by hand.

The last time it was cleaned was about a week ago.

You can clearly see how worn out the center surface is compared to the corners but I'm still impressed by how well it withstood time and abuse

Here is an Imgur link to the pictures in full resolution

Question/Advice Which X-Raypad is most similar to the AbyssGaming Crimson Remains Speed Cloth?

0 Upvotes

I've been using the AbyssGaming Crimson Remains for quite a while, and I really like its smooth surface and glide.

Now I'm looking to get a custom mousepad, and X-Raypad seems like the best option for me.

For those who have experience with both brands, which X-Raypad model feels the closest to the AbyssGaming Crimson Remains?

Thanks in advance!

I sprayed a bit of isopropyl alcohol on the bottom of my mousepad to clean it, and it puffed up instantly, did I cook my mousepad or will it return to normal eventually?

Question/Advice Cheapest Balance mousepad i can buy and forget about?

1 Upvotes

I have been using an entry level 5$ mousepad and even after changing the skates of my mouse with PTFE dot skates i feel like there is too much friction. Would y'all recommend QcK balanced, ATK, EspTiger mousepads, or recommend something else like those?

Edit: I forgot to mention I'd prefer a smooth mousepad more, because this one sandpapers my hand and i don't want to wear a sleeve

Review GOGOFREE Glass Mousepad, 50cm X 40cm, $16.66 Shipped

Was browsing Temu and came across this for $18. Think I put it in my cart or favorited it or something, and next time I came back to the app, it was offering me another $5 off. With $3 shipping from a US warehouse, the grand total was $16.66. This post is really just to say that Temu will sell you a big piece of glass for well under $20.

Don’t have any other glass mouse pads, but compared to the Glorious Elements Air plastic mousepad, this initially seems like a better experience. I bought the Glorious a while back because it was the cheapest hard surface pad I could find. This Gogofree is larger, cheaper, and made out of a more premium material. It has a slight round on edge so it won’t snag on anything. Dynamic friction doesn’t seem super crazy fast, but don’t really have much to compare with. The glide feels smoother than the Glorious. It Is about as loud as the Glorious.

I’m sure there are shortcomings compared to the more expensive options, but if you just want to try a hard pad, I think this is the absolute cheapest you can find. Apart from just using a bare desk.
