The first gaming mouse produced by https://chatmagbingocasino.co.uk Steelseries, which I purchased as soon as it appeared in Russia. I also purchased 4game from the store, and at that time I was switching to it from Microsoft 3.0, on which the clicks have already broken and the paint has worn off. The first sensations were, of course, unforgettable, the shape really turned out to be very comfortable and practical, the hand lay on the mouse like a glove. The idea of the Ikari form is very simple and clear – combining the MS 3 form.0 and Logitech MX518:

However, the first impressions were spoiled by the very high LoD (backlash) values - I had to constantly keep the mouse on the mousepad without lifting it from it (which was very unusual for me after MS 3.0). At first I thought that this was some kind of bug, and that new drivers or firmware would fix it, but this did not happen and I just got used to it. After six months of active play, Ikari’s wire deteriorated and, not finding a replacement for it (for example, a wire from mx518 could serve as a replacement), I switched to Razer DeathAdder.

As you can see in the picture, the mouse has clicks from Omron
Steelseries’ first optical mouse. The shape is very convenient and practical, it will really appeal to those who are used to mx518/G5/g400. Good and clear clicks, large Teflon feet, high-quality sensor. Among the disadvantages, it is worth noting the high LOD value and negative acceleration. Overall a decent gaming mouse that has proven itself among pro players. Perfect for players accustomed to Logitech MX518 and Microsoft 3 formats.0, not recommended for players with low sensitivity.
Pros:
+ convenient form
+ good and reliable sensor
+ large teflon glides
Cons:
– high LOD
— presence of negative acceleration
– lack of settings in drivers
Next in line – Steelseries Ikari laser!
Best comments
Well finally! You continue my topic =) I’ve been asking people for a long time how and what, but no one really answered. There were only comments like “X7 is the coolest!", but not a single argument. It will be interesting to read the opinion of a rummaging person.
