"I have two, mx518, 20+ years old and 15+ of that was daily use. Still works. ... Zero issues with either ever. ... for daily office use I'm sure it would last for years still."
"I still have and use mine going on 19 years. ... Had to replace the cord at one point."
"My father still uses my old Mx518 that's about 20 years old. ... Works perfectly"

"all the same shape, very comfy for gaming in palm grip."
"the shape of the Legendary MX518 has inward curve on the bottom left and wouldn't have that issue"

"I use the two side buttons as an extra ctrl and alt if my hand needs more focus on the WeSAD movement."
"If the game has all the handy stuff in a 15 key 1-5 c1-5 a1-5 then maybe I'll bind it to 9 and 0 for ultimates or movements or things I wouldn't use reguarly but still need a key for."

"I just use the MX518, which is already a "2 button" mouse ... I use the two side buttons as an extra ctrl and alt if my hand needs more focus on the WeSAD movement. ... If the game has all the handy stuff in a 15 key 1-5 c1-5 a1-5 then maybe I'll bind it to 9 and 0 for ultimates or movements or things I wouldn't use reguarly but still need a key for."

"I hesitate to use in a gaming use as the cord can only take so much abuse before it eventually fails"
"Had to replace the cord at one point."
