What Mouse Does amster Use?

Mousepad

amster plays on the Razer Gigantus V2 Pro Speed, a cloth pad he has used since July 2026, the same month he started on his current mouse.

The pad is built for speed: overall glide is speed-oriented, static friction is low and dynamic friction is medium. Low static friction means less force is needed to start a movement. Medium dynamic friction keeps some resistance once the mouse is moving.

Glide difference between the X and Y axes is 7.2%. Foam firmness is mid, and the pad is 4 mm thick with stitched edges.

At 50 cm by 48 cm it is a large surface. A full 360° turn at his sensitivity takes 38.5 cm of mouse travel, which fits within both dimensions.

Mouse settings

In CS2 amster runs 800 DPI at 1.35 in-game sensitivity. That gives an eDPI of 1080 and a 360° turn of 38.5 cm.

Zoom sensitivity is 1. Windows sensitivity is 6.

The mouse is rated for 8000 Hz polling, but his listed setting is 1000 Hz. The 800 DPI value also sits well inside the sensor's 100-50000 DPI range.

Should you buy amster's mouse?

The Razer Viper V4 Pro White is a good fit if you want a symmetrical, ambidextrous shape with a low weight. It measures 12.7 cm long, 6.4 cm wide and 4.0 cm high, and weighs 49 g. It is wireless, with the Focus Pro 30K sensor, Razer Optical Gen-4 switches and 8000 Hz polling.

The alternatives keep nearly the same footprint and differ mainly in weight:

• Razer Viper V3 Pro Black: same length, width and height, but 5 g heavier. It has a Focus Pro 35K Optical Gen-2 sensor and is used by 8 pros right now.
• ASUS ROG Harpe Ace Extreme: 2 g lighter, same length and width, and 0.1 cm lower. It is used by 1 pro.
• ASUS ROG Harpe Ace 2 Black: 1 g lighter, 0.1 cm shorter and 0.1 cm narrower, with the same height. It is used by 1 pro.

Pick the Viper V3 Pro if you want the same dimensions and can accept the extra weight. The two ASUS models suit you if you want a slightly lighter mouse, with the Harpe Ace Extreme also being a touch lower.
