Based on 1 year's data from Feb 17, 2026 How it works
I used to play with microsoft wheel mouse optical 1.1 (which is the original sensor that PWNs sensors are on every mouses now and the intellimouse same sensor is what inspired the deathadder shape) and that sensor was FLAWLESS, no feeling of acceleration, parasite firmware messing up the aim until you play hundreds of hours to get used to, so flawless you could just pick up the mouse and litteraly shred. The sensor was pointed to the front of the mouse which fit my gripstyle perfectly and keep my crosshair headlevel at all time without even having to think about it. Fast forward to 2024 i wanted to get back in competitive but felt that even 1k hz was too low nowadays. I bought every possible mice hoping to get the same feel; Zowie fk2 / Zowie fk2-DW / Pulsar x2v2 / Pulsar x2 Crazylight / Razer deathadder / glorious o, and NONE felt like that perfection i was used to until i bought the Superlight 2. They really nailed the sensor, no bs accel, or "aditives" just as they mention on their packaging. It felt like i was back in my competitive days and all the muscle memory kicked in. The shape personally is just what i need aswell, not too bulky but enough of a back hump to fit in my palm to stabilise my horizontal mouse movements. I am absolutely satisfied with this mouse and even have a 2nd one just in case the one i'm using right now breaks. I don't care about all those "don't be mainstream" comments i see about the mouse just because it's logitech. But for me they built something that no other mouse manufacturer could. This mouse is just perfect.
Great one! Although, I preferred the Microsoft Intelli Mouse Explorer 3.0 or the wheel mouse optical 1.1a over it. Still have those
A Logitech Wingman Gaming mouse but it didn't look like a gaming mouse, for that it would probably be my Razer Boomslang, was good while it lasted...about 4 months and the right mouse button stopped working. That was a common theme with Razer mice for me I stopped buying them after the Copperhead. But for the start of playing Quake I used a Logitech Trackman Marble thumb trackball for years, I used it and mice and I kept going back to it, finally stopped using it around 2002, started having trouble with my thumb. Favorite mice from back then are the Microsoft Intellimouse Optical 1.1 or 1.1a and the Steelseries Kana v2, but the Kana was not the best made mouse, but thankfully relatively cheap at the time around $30. I still have like 8 1.1/1.1a that work. I miss mice that had a side button on both sides, I fingertip grip so I could actually use both easily.
As someone who had 2 copperheads doubeclick and skip around the screen in last then 6 months I concur. I went back to the ms 1.1

WMO IntelliMouse 1.1 Explorer 3.0 etc was used my a very few top tier players up until 2019 / 2020. I myself have used it (MLT04 sensor) since it got released on and off until now, overclocked to 500 or 1000 hz is is still viable and if it had a faster pcb I would prolly main it still since I still have aim records with it that I cannot beat with new mice. Some aimers also still have records using the first superlight even though newer mice exist and afaik the best rifler in cs2, donk used it just a couple of months ago. Superstrike looks like the new thing that will last a while now..
