Looks like a claw grip if you have bigger hands yes the v6 will feel small so I recommend the pulsar tenz or za11-c if you can handle a wired mouse. Btw can you measure your handsize in cm?

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.

I can list good wired mice - op18k v2/XM2 8k v2, dav3 wired, pulsefire haste 2 wired, pulsefire saga wired, redragon m996 wired, zowie c series.

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

ZA11 is a pretty good shape for large hand claw grip

My hands are 21x11.5 and I hold the mouse almost exactly like you, my favorite mice are by far the xm2w 4k v2, Lamzu Atlantis, Za11/12 and the Op1 8k v2 but the op1 is not the most comfortable for my hand size. The only mice I think for my grip style that I have yet to try that I want to are the Lamzu thorn v2 and the Zowie U2-dw.

Was such a good mouse. Loved it. Zowie ZA scratches the itch and more for me now

Rival 300 was my first proper mouse. Miss that thing. I moved to Zowie ZA series, the hump placement is similar

Pulsar Tenz, LAMZU Inca or Zowie za would be my recommendations if you want good palm support

Handsize? A good suggestion is the X2H, EGG OP1 and Benq Zowie ZA series (so far i can think of)

i have the same hand size and i used to do an aggro claw grip too. i like potato and egg shaped mice back then but eventually my hand grip became a mix between relaxed claw and palm/fingertip (depending on how low the hump would be, maining the XM2W from Endgame gear that i got for $50 SGD ~ $35USD i think). I don’t know how you view finger grooves in mice but i need it for my particular kind of grip, i find my pressure points on my fingers to be on my thumb and ring finger. to me if an aggressive claw is your go or if i were to talk to my younger self, it would be the X2H (either the mini or medium) or the OP1, with the latter being what could have been my favourite. after maining so many mice after all these years, imo going for clones are not worth it if QC is what you look into in mice. not that they are bad, but obviously worse since it is after all clones of the original shape. im just saying this since people are definitely gonna recommend the chinese brands that are clones of the original shape and i have this placebo feeling that if the mouse is lacking in qc, i keep thinking about in game. mice with flatter sides are a no go for me since i usually would be so unsure on how i should be holding it unless its like a shape that is wider from the back and then going inwards and thinner to the front which helps a lot with the lock in feel. i feel like i needed to yap about these sort of things to help inform you of such mice and shapes to be sure about for grips the next time you wonder if your mice is no longer worth maining. TLDR; i suggest to go for X2H either mini or medium, or the OP1 if you would be down for a small mice to aggressively claw grip. Take note of what you want in the mouse, whether there are curves or is flatter around the sides
