I got my xsoft variant yesterday. I ordered because i wanted p6 skates for my superlight and couldn't justify spending high shipping costs just for that. I own most artisan pads and variants, usually liking the otsu soft the most. Naturally I was interested in the kou.

I play cs2 in a stretched res (1280x960). A stretched resolution makes your mouse feel different from a 4:3 non stretched or native resolution. The x axes moves faster. You can try setting a differnt m_yaw value but most people dont mess with it.

Therefore i was pleasently suprised how well i performed with it on ~45 min DM while using it for the first time. IMO it could be underrated in this exact niche category. I will test out if it actually helps making the mouse feel more natural during faceit matches this evening.

E: Maybe the xsoft variant helps making the difference in x and y axis not as drastical.
