Viper V3 Pro prob the most popular and mainstream mouse. GPX 1 and 2 still about equal with viper combined. Pulsar's two recent releases TenZ & Crazylight have some of the best overall quality and durability in the business. Unfortunately none of their other offerings so far include the pulsar opticals. But I do think the X2 mini or crazylight version might be what you want, smaller mouse you can reach the front area with very light clicks. x2h mini version if you want higher-hump at the back. Lamzu, waizowl, mchose are some of the more well-regarded value OEMs but the prices are rising so oftentimes now you can get some of the OG models for cheaper on ebay.
I have 19cmx10cm hands and I do like a weird pincer claw/fingertip grip with the pulsar x2 crazylight mini. It has pretty much flat sides which really helps me with comfort. Not exactly sure if it would suit you but i thought to put it out there since i have very limited experience with different mice haha
I have long term problems with my wrist and particularly my thumb area and the X2 mini felt like it put the most strain on the area of all the mice I've used. 18.5x10cm hands.
Ah nice, I had a X2 mini for a while, liked it a lot, great mouse, this also looks like an X2. Although Pulsar QC used to be iffy a few years ago.
I'm a small woman so my hands are 16x8.5...I mained the x2 mini v1 for a while but I swapped off after experimenting with more mice and settled for a bit with the op18k because of its shape. I got the crazylight to see if I preferred it over the op18k, and while I prefer the op18k's shape, it's just kinda heavy for its size (even with a glass mousepad) and it has a wire (even though I use a bungee). I know 51g is really light to most people, but I've been using mice like the ULX which is 31g. I still swap between op18k and crazylight 50/50. I aggro claw and fingertip for microadjustments. The only thing I don't like about it is its width and the clicks on the op18k are tighter, less hollow, and more snappy. Some people think the pulsar x2 sides are too flat which makes it feel like you're holding a block, but I guess I'm weird and prefer that for my play style. As for the HE boards, it depends on how long you want to wait. There's not much known about wooting's 60he v2 other than their video and what was seen at Computex. I can't really comment on that but I don't think you'd regret getting a made68 pro now. It's a good board and quite frankly I don't have high hopes for wooting. But hey, some Computex attendees have said it's really good.
>This guy always doesn't recommend Pulsar mice That's just not true. The [Xlite](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-xlite/7.html) got the Editor's Choice award. The [Xlite Wireless](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-xlite-wireless/7.html), [Xlite v2](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-xlite-wireless-v2/4.html), and [Xlite v2 Mini](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-xlite-v2-mini-wireless/7.html) all got the Editor's Choice and Great Value awards (note that these were $80 or less, similar to Scyrox now). The [X2](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-x2/7.html), [X2 Mini](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-x2-mini/7.html), [X2 v2](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-x2v2/8.html), [X2H](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-x2h/9.html), and [Xlite v3](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/pulsar-xlite-v3/8.html) each received the Highly Recommended award (launch price for these was closer to $100). Only the last four Pulsar mice reviewed by pzogel didn't get any awards; keep in mind that these four all had some level of polling instability with a launch price of $130-180, while cheaper mice like the [DeathAdder V3 HyperSpeed](https://www.techpowerup.com/review/razer-deathadder-v3-hyperspeed/7.html) ($100) had no such issues. It's easy to see why Pulsar no longer stands out enough to warrant a recommendation as they've become pricier and less competitive.
Interesting, you have 18 x 11 hands (in cm), that makes it easier for me. For claw, i can give 2 options depending whether you want full support (comfortable, rear hump that caters to your grip naturally and fills your palm for stability) or longer bodied mice for fingertip adjustment (centre or back minimal hump, but relies on fingers to adjust aim) Palm filling for stability: Lamzu thorn, WLmouse strider, Pulsar TenZ signature edition, Endgame Gear XM2/ XM2W, Pulsar X2N mini, Mchose L7+, Sony INZONE Mouse A Fingertip reliance, centre hump: Lamzu maya, WLmouse beast X (not mini or max, X is fine), ATK F1, Hitscan hyperlight, Mchose AX5 ultra These are options that have both super nice designs and caters to your grip the most. But i recommend the top half of my recs (stability) so you dont run into wrist issues or cramps when you grow up, youll feel much better using them and wont have to buy any more mice. Happy browsing!
As you can see I have medium/large hands and use pulsar x2 mini. It’s bee great as I have been using it for over a year now. I just got back into CS2 and have noticed the small size with my fingertip grip is limiting me as to perform well i have to hold the mouse in a way that gets uncomfortable after 3 ish minutes of grip. I need something I can be more consistent with. The length is good since I’m fingertip and want to still be able to pull down into palm for spray control. The issue seems to be height and width. Lmk what you think will work for me.
If you look at my pinky and ring finger, there is little to no room for them and they cramp up really bad, love this mouse but because of that I end up gripping it differently almost ever time I play and it makes me inconsistent
