don't worry about what feet the pros use, just use onesthat you'd prefer. do you like high or low friction?

he doesnt care about friction

he just wants some PRO WMO FEETS NAOOOOO!!!!!!!!

grow fucking up

well it's not taht you want to just carbon copy what the pros do, but if they decided on certain feet, they did so for a reason. if i know that reason, i can factor that in to my decision making.

Puretrak feet are higher friction. Dunno bout hyperglides. Steelseries are pretty low friction. Personally, I wore the fuck out of my WMO on a hard surface for so many years that it basically doesn't have feet and actually glides pretty well... So I just leave it :)

edit: I will add that the 1.1's stock feet actually aint too bad on the new ones. Haven't bought a WMO in like... 10 years, so I wouldn't know about new WMO feet. I'd just say get steelseries or hyperglides though.

WMO + Hyperglides = amazing combo.
I didn't like the stock feet at all.

im on stock feet and it feels like they get less slick if the pad gets even a little dirty. do the hyperglidez change this?

The Hyperglides are always slick even if your pad is dirty.
Try them, they are really worth it.

I was wondering this myself, but the information will be difficult to acquire.

at iem finals cooller played with wmo stock feet

/close

that would be very difficult to know since no one asks that, or did you?

my wild guess is that everyone uses stock feet anyways

saw him playing at iem finals. after ztn vs chance cooller said that his mouse is broken and throw it away :) so i could see the mousefeet... but he still played the third map with this mouse perhaps because lack of replacement

stermy uses Hyperglides with his Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer 3.0

yep, he posted that on his site some time ago.
Anyways the thing is wmo only

actually someone should ask rapha if he uses stock or other feet, or maybe he did before on his sk profile.

Just like I was saying :p

Honestly, the stock feet on WMO really aint that bad. I wore them down they're pretty slick... I think L1nkje said he was using a WMO with worn down feet (well, before they went to Kinzu's n shit)

klawd, it's almost the same mouse so that's useful to me. thank you for the info. i'm cool with this discussion being on the feet of any mouse the pros use since the underlying principle in their decision making i imagine would be the same.

zer1ton, i noticed the same about my wmo stock feet after playing on a hard pad some. i agree they're not bad.

i just put on my hyperglides and initial impression is that i like them. thanks for everyone's input so far. any info is appeciated

The entire idea of nonstandard mouse feet is just wrong. You want more friction if you want to aim better. That's why every notable player uses a cloth pad and not some piece of shit glass or metal.

Fox = Icemat
Toxjq = Icemat
vamp1re = clueless moron.

Jesus Christ, I just [+]'d a Frenchman


It doesn't feel right.



Why doesn't it feel right?





Someone make it feel right

There, I +'d you back.

Oh wait, won't it feel even worse?

OH GOD.


IT'S EVERYWHERE.



IT'S IN MY RACCOON WOUNDS.

I thought it would be clear that every was an exaggeration, I don't know every players preference. I still feel it got my point across. So, two players use icemats.

I guess you would have if mr Rail and mr Shaft were not using icemats since years. I still don't get the part about mousefeet though.

But hey, it's the interwebz, pretty much everything is an exaggeration.

Two 'notable' players at that :)

toxic used icemat?
looks like some generic cloth here

Saw that vid a few months ago, thought it was an icemat ( never thought there were blue icemats but Fox proved me wrong ). That's what he was using back in the q3 ic days though.

yeah its an icemat

Now it might sound strange but I kinda remember him rotating it ( longer, less large ) and it would fit what I got from one of his old cfgs ( pitch -0.016 ). Is it only my imagination?

i thought i liked the hyperglides but they're too slick for me. i'm trying the puretrak feet and as someone said, they're high friction, more so than the stock feet. dunno if i like it yet, i might actually prefer the stock feet the most

This topic is not worth it's own thread so I'll just ask here:
what mouse did cypher use before he got the abyssus?

ime3.0, wmo, deathadder, now abyssus

I believe he only played with the deathadder during events or exhibition matches when the suits were around. But yeah, now he uses the Abyssus.

He played with the DA @ Dubai and DreamHack Winter.

i dont understand how a guy without huge hands is able to use the da (or ie3.0 for that matter). i have fairly big hands and thought the da was to big.

Razer. Contract. Money. Only pictures I've seen of him playing with a da he was surrounded by suits.
edit : and he looked pretty uncomfortable, wacky distorted claw grip.

Depends really. I got big hands but like the size of the deathadder (didn't seem that big to me)

The 3.0 is bigger for me then a da because of the length and it's about the same size as a wmo for me because of the grip I use

the link you gave where the supposed discussion should be is just some guys talking about a tourney.. where is the discussion about the wmo you fucking faggot

Could someone tell me some WMO mouse-feet with as low friction as possible? An example of the type of mouse feet that I like is the ones used as stock in razer mice (da, salmosa), which are very low friction.

Hyperglide Mouse Skates MS-3

yeah like extaleR said, they are very similar, but i like WMO's own stakez, or zowie skatez on goliathus speed.

tried the zowie skates? are they more durable than hyperglides?

yeah i tried both,
actually i was using hyperglides for me old db, i used them about 1 year and it seems that still allright.
about zowie, bought them just 2 weeks ago, so i cannot say anything about durability, but about the friction, i like it most.
You know you dont just move the mouse, you have to control and stop it where you want to aim;)

I always feel like I have the most control with the least amount of friction do to how I hold and move the mouse. I grip it really hard and I will stop it where I want it to stop. when there's high friction I just feel hindered.

But we're all different and use out mice differently, thanks for the advice I'll check out the Hyperglides :)

i tried the hyperglides, they are very very slick, too much for me. sounds like you'd like them though

im asking because i use an icemat... my hyperglides were worn down after ONE week of usage :(

speaking of mouse feet with low friction, why hasn't someone gotten to their senses and released ceramic mousefeet for popular mice? i cant imagine those ever getting worn out (although they prolly wouldnt work to well with an icemat)
ace edge 3200 and Nova Slider X600 had ceramic feet so get to it steelseries or qpad or someone!
