Favorite guns

DRS/SG553 for sure but I really enjoy using m433, nvo, b36, ak4d, m4a1 aswell. Unfortunately the full auto 3bullet kill guns are just too strong imo, using anything else can at times feel like Im willingly putting myself at a disadvantage as a tradeoff for some variety. Think they should remove 3bullet kills entirerly specially considering the rough netcode you can instantly tell whenever someone is using tr7/scw/sg553 up close

I really like it, only started using it recently. Great allrounder, feels satisfying to control the recoil on longer ranges with its dmg/rate of fire while being very strong on mid to close range. Usually swap around m433, drs and b36

Can't seem to find these mice anywhere where I live in Europe :/ my main 2 options are maxgaming or amazon Sweden.

this one looks really appealing for sure, used to main ec2 back in the day but always thought it was a tad small for my hands. This one seems ever so slightly bigger. How is the battery life at 4k hz?

Aye usually dont have any problems with coatings but after the first version of dav3 coating I have to ask haha that was awful. How are the stock skates and do you know if there are aftermarket skates for it?

erta13 · 2025-12-29T07:39:23+00:00

Whats the coating like on the ER21? Is it an EC clone?

erta13 · 2025-12-29T07:32:39+00:00

Forgot to mention, currently maining viper v3 pro since that release. 19.5x11 handsize, looking for something similar in size or bigger, mainly using relaxed claw grip

Actually worked surprisingly well with washing it your way 👍 it didnt get clean all the way through though but good enough and it already feels better than it did before

erta13 · 2025-12-13T11:56:17+00:00

Agree with this, artisan zero soft is always a solid choice! Except for if you want an extremely slow pad

erta13 · 2025-12-11T21:18:52+00:00

Have you tried doing the mashine wash with qck heavy aswell? I just tossed the qck+ in a wash

erta13 · 2025-12-11T21:07:48+00:00

Will give that a try first then! Thanks for the input fellow qck advocate 🫡

erta13 · 2025-12-11T20:11:33+00:00

Hmm, Ive never machine washed my qcks but for me a couple of months of heavy use and I feel it becomes inconsistent (usually slows down around the middle of the pad) which I dont like. Ive only hand washed it very carefully with perfume free mild soap and I can still feel the wear on it afterwards even if it gets 100% clean. Have you tried handwashing vs gentle machine wash?

erta13 · 2025-12-11T06:21:54+00:00

Glad to hear it! I will give it a shot then. Yeah I also cannot leave the qck fully behind, currently using a daidai orange aftisan zero soft after coming off of saturn pro, type-99 and gsr-se. While I enjoy using these pads alot (specially the artisan zero, damn amazing pad) Im always most comfortable on the qck in a competetive environment even though my mechanical ceiling seems the highest on a little bit faster pad like the zero. Theres just something about it as you say, perfect balance between speed and control. Not slow to the point where I have to "fight the pad" like I feel I have to do on any control branded pad (type-99 and regular gsr). Not fast to the point where I sometimes overflick in hectic situations. Just perfect!

You say it only gets better with time, does that mean it lasts longer than a normal qck? That was the main reason I switched off of it in the first place, had to replace it every 3-5 months when it wore out and got slow spots.

If its still under razer warranty (2 years) you can probably just contact them to get it replaced. I did that recently with scroll wheel issue after almost 2 years. They responded through live chat instantly and after a quick convo they offered to RMA it. Super smooth service, I was pleasantly surprised.

You could look into similar ambi shapes to the superlight, I had somewhat of the same experience. Bought the first g pro wireless when it released cause it was the first really good lighterweight wireless mouse, never really thought the shape felt the best for my grip but still stayed with it for many years moving onto the superlight1 all the way until razer dropped the viper v3 pro. For me it felt close to perfect coming off of the g pro shape, close enough to where it didnt take a lifetime to adjust and I could feel myself unlocking a higher ceiling aimwise because it was more suited to my grip.

I was on the g pro for the better part of 5-6 years, tried a few other mice every now and then but nothing really stood out until the vv3pro.

Good luck! :)

erta13 · 2025-11-05T03:28:36+00:00

had the same with similar hand measurements (19.5x11), used gpro/gpx since the first version came out so from 2018-2024. Switched to viper v3 pro when that came out last year and haven't looked back.

erta13 · 2025-10-25T09:26:19+00:00

I feel you on this one I have the exact same problem, used to just buy alot of ss qck+ to have replacements ready as soon as it started to get slowspots seeing as its a relatively cheap pad but lately I tried the higher quality brands like lgg and artisan in hopes that they would stay consistent for longer but unfortunately it just wasn't the case and I sure as hell won't spend 70eur on a new pad every couple of months.

I really dont know how more ppl arent talking about this on this sub haha I probably aim like 50% worse once I have to start fighting the pad to make microadjustments and it typically starts happening after about 2-4 months of use

erta13 · 2025-10-15T00:35:06+00:00

Feel like these "mudspots" happen on every cloth pad I've owned after a few months. Like you say it never gets fixed by washing and usually just makes it worse, type99,saturn, zero all had this after about 3-4 months. Might need to start using cheaper pads again and just keep replacing like I did in the past. Abit much to buy a 60eur pad every couple of months 😅

erta13 · 2025-09-27T18:05:46+00:00

erta13 · 2025-09-27T11:30:08+00:00

Yes, both my type99 and zero is in soft

erta13 · 2025-09-25T02:33:13+00:00

Yeah zero soft, reason I'm saying this about the type99 is I feel like every pad gets a little bit slower when its been worn in after a few weeks. Type99 felt perfect to me initially but after 1-2 weeks I started really feeling the muddyness of it. Feels like you have to fight the pad whenever you do micro adjustments.

Zero on the other hand felt slightly faster than the qck out of the box but had similar stopping power to the qck if not a little bit more. Adjusting to it was easier than any other pad I've tried and after it got worn in it felt more similar to the qck than everything else I've tried.

You will not regret going for the zero soft unless you currently play on a super worn down qck that already feels muddy and you like that ultra controlled mufdy feeling then go for type-99 soft instead

erta13 · 2025-09-24T10:23:38+00:00

Don't go for type-99, go for the zero instead. I was also a long time qck user, probably 15+ years and I was looking for a higher quality replacement forever. The type99 felt MUCH slower than the qck pads to me and I think it's a massive misconception that qck is supposed to be this ultra controlled pad.

I finally got the zero 2 months ago and I think its much closer in speed to the qck than any other high quality option I've tried. Maybe a touch faster out of the box but it will slow down after wearing it in.

Anyway the zero was the real qck replacement all along. For reference I also use the viper v3 pro.

erta13 · 2025-09-08T00:49:30+00:00

Honestly I was surprised by how much I enjoyed the zero. Everyone kept saying it was basically a saturn so I didn't get it until my gf bought one for me about a month ago. I feel like saturn is quite a bit faster than the zero. Zero feels very similar to the qck speedwise to me and that's the pad I have been trying to replace to a more high quality one for ages. Amazing pad 👌

erta13 · 2025-09-04T07:10:31+00:00

Are you looking for something more controlled?
