I currently have a deathadder 2013 and I've been using it for about 1.5 years, I'd like to try something else.

I've heard this image is a good reference, but its from early 2013 so probably outdated as hell. Haven't been keeping up.

Would like some suggestions keeping this in mind
- Needs to be smaller than the deathadder
- Righthanded, though I don't mind if the shape is ambidextrous
- Good for claw grip
- Available on amazon.co.uk/ site ships to Belgium
- No known issues with some of the stock/Stable (looking at you ninox)
- Not overly expensive (budget is about €70)

from the 'god tier' it didn't really change since 2013, except that each one got improvements

DA 2013 = DA Chroma, I personally have this, been enjoying it very much, the improvements of it from the DA 2013 are minor though.

G400 = G400s, very good mouse, personal favorite of many top players, not sure how well it would do on claw though.

FK = FK2, which includes an improved sensor and minor improvements.

FK1 = FK, only bigger and a bit heavier.

i would say as long as you don't use mouse2 for jump, get an aurora
it's flawless in every other way for me, as long as you don't use the reset profile button in the drivers, never had a problem with them anyway

if not, g100s

if you really want you can get a zowie but remember they have a lot of button lag
FK was way too big for me to comfortably claw grip and the EC2-evo was the wrong shape for it completely

hmm.. the naga is really good.. for mmo's
its not good for fps because of the weight.. and an optical sensor would be better than laser, ofc.
but it does what it was made for.

@op id get FK/FK2
they are slightly better than the current ec1/ec2 (the new ones might be nice, though)

no point in getting chroma over 2013 DA
g400s/aurora have issues

Head's up if anyone else is looking at the Avior 7000, Massdrop has it for 40 dollars plus shipping: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/mionix-avior-7000

I don't personally have the mouse I'm just pointing out the deal for anyone interested.

i switched from the deathadder to the CM Storm Recon, and i love it, when i use my laptop i use the old deathadder, and honestly i dont know how i ever used it on a normal basis

Recon is a bit smaller, and easy to grab/claw, has a nice coating etc, check it out!

I just switched from a DA 2013 and I bought an fk1 and a g400s and I am currently using the g400s. Both are very good but I find if you go from the DA to the fk1 then the fk is way too light.
