What Mouse Does s0m Use?

s0m's mouse history

His history has 4 periods and 3 switches. The current Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 White is the longest period at 33.6 months (2.8 years), and it is still running.

The shortest was the ASUS ROG Harpe Ace, which lasted 1.1 months between March and April 2023. He then went back to the original Superlight line, which totals 14.7 months (1.2 years) across two periods, the White first and later the Red (9.0 months).

The most recent switch, in January 2024, took him from the Superlight Red to the Superlight 2 White. Every other mouse in his history came from the same Logitech line except that one ASUS month.

Mousepad

He currently plays on the SteelSeries QcK+, in use since October 2025 (12.5 months). It is a cloth pad with stitched edges and a control-oriented glide.

The QcK+ follows the SteelSeries QcK Heavy Black, which he used from January 2024 to October 2025 (21.1 months). Before that he used the QcK Large Black from September 2022 to January 2024. All three pads are from the QcK family, so his surface has stayed cloth and control-oriented throughout.

Mouse settings

He runs 400 DPI in both VALORANT and CS2. Only the in-game sensitivity changes: 0.8 in VALORANT (320 eDPI) and 2.35 in CS2 (940 eDPI). The two games scale sensitivity differently, so the eDPI values are not comparable across them.

What matters in practice is the distance. VALORANT comes to 40.8 cm/360 and CS2 to 44.2 cm/360, so he uses a wide, arm-length swipe in both.

The mouse supports polling up to 2000 Hz, but his listed polling rate is 1000 Hz in both games. Windows sensitivity is 6 in both games, and Raw Input Buffer is on in VALORANT.

Should you buy s0m's mouse?

The Superlight 2 White is a wireless, ambidextrous mouse. At 59 g with a 12.42 cm length, it suits players who want a low-weight mouse of medium length and a fairly narrow body (6.06 cm wide). The symmetrical shape has no right-hand contour.

The alternatives trade off weight, shape and platform:

• Logitech G Pro X Superlight Black has the same length, width and height, but is 3 g heavier. It uses the older HERO sensor and Omron switches, with a listed button force of 65 g. 5 pros use it now.
• Logitech G Pro X2 SUPERSTRIKE Lunar Eclipse is 2 g heavier, 0.62 cm shorter, 0.14 cm wider and 0.06 cm lower. It has the HERO 2 sensor, Logitech HITS switches and polling up to 8000 Hz. 15 pros use it now.
• ZOWIE U2-DW Black is 1 g heavier, 0.12 cm shorter, 0.26 cm narrower and 0.16 cm lower. It has a PAW3950 sensor and polling up to 4000 Hz. 3 pros use it now.

For the same footprint as his mouse, the Superlight Black is the closest match. The SUPERSTRIKE is shorter and wider, and the U2-DW is the narrowest and lowest of the three.
