Can anyone recommend a good left handed gaming mouse. I can happily use a right handed mouse most the time but for gaming it just doesn't feel right. I currently have an ambidextrous Razer mouse but I would really like something that's actually more comfortable. Ideally want to stick to Razer as I have Chroma everything but I don't think they do them so anything that I can match up with the rest of my gear and is good quality will do. For some annoying reason these companies seem to think left handed people don't game, it's so annoying and I swear the choices these days are worse than they used to be.
Left Handed Mice

Razer did a left handed version of the Deathadder.
I'm left handed myself. I had 2 left-handed death adder's but I feel razer mouse are rubbish nowadays they don't last long enough they always ended up breaking.
I went too ambidextrous - Steelseries Sensei 310 which is very nice upgrade from razer death adder lefty I feel. the rubber on the sides are very nice. I believe there is a Version 2 now. £50
Corsair M55 PRO RGB, Ambidextrous i've heard is good too if you are on a budget. £35
If you have more cash look at
Logitech G Pro Wireless £130
Razer viper ultimate wireless £145

Roccat Kova is what im using, love it so much I have a boxed spare one!
Just got back to this. My old Razer Lachesis mouse has done me proud and lasted 12 years or so but I was never fan of the shape tbh so time for a new one.
I've got my heart set on something like the Razer Basilisk Ultimate with the thumb rest, I just find them more comfortable, I have used right handed ones for office work etc but can't game right handed at all. It's just something I like having on a mouse all the ones above just aren't what I'm looking for.
Any ideas, I can't find a thing

Using left handed Deathadder. I'm right handed, but to reduce strain use left hand mouse for work (and right hand for gaming).
worst thing about it is razer software, which I'm not going to ever install
lighting can't be turned off without it
sensor speed can't be changed without it
defaults swapped left and right click, questionable choise, got used to it

Something else that's come up whilst looking into this that I've somehow never really thought of before is I have tiny hands. I mean people actually notice it.
I suddenly noticed that I never bothered with the extra buttons on my Lachesis and now see that's because they are just about out of reach which is a shame because they'd be handy for things like grenades and reloading (I actually never use grenades because hitting the button is too akward!!!) considering WASD buttons aren't very left handed friendly either (honestly has the PC gaming world got something against left handed people, everything seems setup exclusively for right handed people). This left me considering the Viper Ultimate Mini and got excited for a minute because it seems the perfect size and it's so cheap buuut they went and turned that one into a right handed mouse to save money.
So I guess what I really really want is a top of the range, small, wireless, left handed mouse with a thumb rest and Chroma RGB support, everything Razer does seems to be missing one of these features or another, I've reached out to them about it but got no reply.
I know that is really picky but to be fair I didn't choose to be left handed or have dinky hands.

I've used the Logitech G300s for the last couple of years, it's ok & cheap.

I used the Razer Deathadder left-handed mouse for a while, but I found it less comfortable than most ambidextrous mice I've used. Also the scroll wheel broke about a year after getting it, which I gather is not entirely uncommon with this model.
I'm currently using a Razer Abyssus, which is okay if a little basic. It's quite small and light (also cheap), which I like as I use a grip that's halfway between claw and fingertip and so prefer mice I can flick around quite easily rather than something that fills my palm.
I also like the mouse my youngest kid uses - a Zowie FK2, which is also a small mouse and feels pretty good whenever I've used his PC. Perhaps a little smaller than I need. My other lad has a Steelseries Sensei, which is not bad either, but the shape of it fills the palm a bit much for my taste. Would probably suit a palm grip, though, even with smaller hands as it's not exactly huge.
I'm still exploring options to replace my Abyssus with, purely because I'd like a couple of side buttons, which it lacks. I've been looking at the PCMR mice, but actually might end up getting a Zowie FK1.

I went from a Razer Lachesis that lasted almost 10 yeaes as main mouse and still works as my laptop mouse, to the wired Razer Lancehead which was just recently discontinued.
Both been really great as a claw grip lefty with fairly big hands. I just run the software for config and leave it dormant otherwise as the mouse saves the settings.
