I love the feel of the Deathadder. It's the most comfortable mouse I've ever used.

I tried one in college and it felt like I had a brick in my hand :x

Different strokes for different folks

Twitchif you decide to go with the DA, consider the Black Edition. Essentially the same mouse, just lacks the rubber grips + LEDs which significantly drops the price down to around $45.

nifty thanks for the tip, and update guys, its between zowie ec2 evo or the death adder now black edition

brandbrandstabbyThe g502 had great potential, but I can't recommend it at all...

-The one I tried would skip consistently when moved rapidly to the left, no matter the surface.
-The metal mouse wheel has so much play it actually rattles when the mouse is moved quickly and stops.
-It is excessively heavy.

What kills me is the sensor really is immaculate at all DPI's when it isn't malfunctioning, the buttons are well-placed, it has side and "free" scroll, good macro abilities, and the grip is divine for hybrid clawers like myself :/ Coulda been a classic.

I recommend Zowie.
would you reccomend zowie over the deathadder?

I'd go with whichever suits your grip best. Do go with the 3.5g if you decide on the DA, as it has a superior sensor.

i do a sort of palm/slight claw grip, and i have sort of small hands but i prefer bigger mice, i didnt mean this in the sexual way that this sounds as i realized after typing this, im just stating my preference, what do you think would be best for that type of grip?

I'd say the steelseries rival. Out of the 2 you have to choose from (which you meantioned) go for the g502.

I have a Deathadder. I hate this piece of shit. Do yourself a favor and don't buy it.
