Meanwhile I been on the Basilisk V2 and just upgraded to the Basilisk V3 X Pro HyperSpeed, and waiting on delivery, I love heavier mouses, V2 was at 90 and the V3 X HS is at 102 I believe, can't wait man, I also am really good at sniping and having control of a heavier mouse feels much better.. to each their own though I used to love the Viper V2 when that was new

I haven't mained a mouse for a long time since my razer basilisk v2. And there have been quite a few I've tried out. That said, I managed to get the new finalmouse slx on order and I'm hopeful it'll be my actual long term mouse moving forward.

I have a Basalisk V2 for work, and a Basalisk V2 at home. Beside the Logitech G502, it's my favourite.

I LOVE the basilisk line. Been using the V2 for a while and have my V3 on standby for when the V2 starts acting up (which I might switch out soon, I'm just too lazy to redo the RGB control lol). I love their larger profile and the shape feels amazing in the hand. The thumb buttons are in a perfect spot for where the thumb sits, and it never feels like it will slip out of your hand. Also, to be totally honest, the price point at which these are sold is really hard to beat, imo.

As a small handed person I love it. Perfect replacement for the m720 (my first mouse) which I also loved but of course it started double clicking only a year in. My current mouse was the basilisk v2 which worked great for 5 years, just jumped on the mobile because I wanted something wireless and that smaller shape (the basilisk v2 was always a tad too big for me). Just wish it took regular double A batteries but it's fine, everything else about it is perfect to me anyway.
