After 5 years down the rabbit hole I can't tell you that there even is a best mouse for FPS but I can tell you where I settled. For reference I have large hands (21 x 10.5). I have bought and used nearly 20 mice over the last 5 years. Main games are CS2 (20k elo), Valorant (immortal), The finals (diamond), Pub G and battlefield. The mouse that I have the most consistency with and best most natural feelings in hand is the zowie FK1+-C. Yes it's wired, yes it's all of 87grams, but it feels like I'm aiming with my eyes. I never worry about finger position or grip tension. It doesn't even enter into my mind. The viper V3 pro is similar but the front flair annoys me. To be clear I have performed very well on mice such as my deathadder V3 pro and vaxee np-01. I also play well on my zowie S1-C and zowie U2. The gpx was fine shape wise but the sensor skips occasionally (two separate copies). But as soon as I put my hands on the FK1+ I just knew. It's a sensation that can only be described as the absence of feeling. It just fits, I don't think about it. Is it perfect? Who knows... But it's more than good enough for me to be my best and enjoy the games I play at the level I play them at. I do wish there was a wireless version, but I'm ok with the wire for how well I perform with the mouse. Will it be perfect for you? Probably not... But I hope that you find a mouse that puts all others on eBay/market place like I have. Good luck.
Check out mice with optical scroll wheel encoders it's usually has better longevity than mechanical encoders.
Mice with optical scroll wheel - zowie c series, g502x/basilisk v3, leviathan v4, keychron m6.
Check out the steelseries prime / prime mini wired the mini is lighter tho
Zowie c series mice - they're on 70+ weight but zowie discontinued it so chances are you're going to buy a second hand unit
I have pretty gigantic hands (around 22x11.5), I've tried a lot of the biggest mice that are still relatively lightweight (ZA11, FK1+, Deathadder V3, Mountain Makalu 67, Glorious Model D), and none of them quite provide the seamless comfort I've looked for for my entire mouse journey.
I'm now kind of in a mental battle where I'm doing playing a lot of valorant and doing aim training, but my aim is still lacking, and I'm wondering if I'm just not gifted at all, or if it has to do with the fact that no mouse is truly comfortable for me. Should I just try to DIY my own massive, light-ish mouse at this point? Or should I get one of those mice that's really big but also super heavy and hope it'll be okay for competitive fps? Or should I just git gud? All kinds of help and tips are appreciated.
If a genie suddenly appeared in front of me and offered me anything right now, my wish would be a 60 gram, 140cm long G Pro Superlight, lmao.
TLDR - I have big ass hands and need help
I've thought about that as well, the transition period just seems quite daunting, I feel like I've already wasted so much time trying so many mice and making small adjustments to my grip style, with no marked improvements in game comfort wise. On the other hand, fingertip probably is the one style that really does work for any handsize, plus I could then use wireless mice again (cause the biggest of the biggest mice are all zowie and wired). Maybe I'll go for it, if I don't get any more actionable suggestions under this post
i have same hand size same grip, i tried superlight and it was too awkward feeling couldnt get a good grip, im currently on an ec2-c atm but i recently tried about 20 different mice and so far the xm2 8k - zowie fk2- zowie fk1+- and maya X were my favourite. mainable end game mouse would be Maya X and xm2 8k forsure.
\*edit i forgot to mention the deathadder v3 wired that i own is extremely comfortable shape and suits this grip exceptionally well. my copy personally just had a mouse click issue but if it didnt i would probably be using it over the ec2-c atm
