I've put off buying a mouse for the longest time. I've got my razor Naga which I use for quite a lot of stuff, but it would be nice to have a better mouse for the occasional FPS, etc. I still use my legendary Logitech.
For the last 3 weeks I've been using the Vaxee XE-S mouse, upgrading/changing from my G Pro Superlight (v1) that I've used for the last 4 years and it's been such a great change. The XE-S is a little lighter (60g vs 63g on the GPX) but the shape is great, m1 and m2 are so responsive and the side buttons are significantly less mushy than the GPX.
I'm running it in 2k hz polling mode - it does offer 1k,2k and 4k as options but I found that 4k didn't feel noticeably different to 2k - but drained the battery a lot quicker. I found that 2k was a noticeable improvement over 1k for how responsive it felt.
At the same, I also picked up one of Artisan's orange Zero pads in Soft (XXL) to replace the Hayate Otsu I've used for the last 18 months. Honestly, Artisan pads are unbeatable. The feel of this pad moving the mouse across is so smooth, great for control when tracking in fps games, gives me enough speed and stopping power as well. Super happy with both currently!
Ducky One 3 pro Nazca Line, rather awesome board have to say and the 8k polling is measurable too:
Mouse is still the DAv3 HS and using the stock 1k polling dongle not the hyperpolling one as haven't found a reason to need more than 1k on this mouse.
The Ducky macro features on this board are excellent, have mapped the calculator button (top right) to be WINKEY+NUM+ which is screen zoom as I use that al lot for pixel peeping.

DeathAdder V3 Hyperspeed to replace the Burst Air II. I liked the BAII for sure but the FOMO of the ergo and everyone online raving about this new V3 made me switch, and glad I did because this coating is amazing to touch. The only gripe is that the stock skates are crap. I've applied ghost glide dots on instead and much much better. No idea why Razer skimped out on quality skates with this.
Yeah I only saw they had an orange option recently! I've used a Hayate Otsu from Artisan for the last 18 months so hadn't been on the site outside of looking at the new Type99 they released in the summer.
as I still like to keep myself in the games even though I rarely play these days lol.
I have yes, I've given away the others or returned them! The V3 HyperSpeed has been amazing, so light and feels so good especially the size vs the larger V3 Pro which is too big.
My only qualm is the feet on the HyperSpeed have too much friction so I took them off and replaced them with Ghost Dot Glides which are superior:
Battery life is excellent, ergo comfort is excellent, the Synapse software doesn't need to be running in the BG, so I only ruin it once a month to check for updates.
Yes that's right, all are limited apart from 2 ULX options which drop every few mo the or so I believe.
So weird you saying Scream is your favourite player, he's mine too and I've actually got his live stream playing rn in the background
I'd love to obtain his Finalmouse to add to my collection. He has mentioned there may be a possibility for another Finalmouse collab but who knows.
I was obsessed with Scream in the CSGO Scene - I ended up using his Crosshair, CSGO Settings and even Sensitivity (Surprisingly it suited how I played) I never ended up with Scream's Version of the Final Mouse but he was very much influencing the brand when I decided to try out their first mouse.
In those style of games, his play style in Matchmaking is very satisfying
Excuse my ignorance, but interesting approach Finalmouse are using as you would think having their mice available at all times would be better for business!
