What Mouse Does sh1ro Use?

sh1ro's mouse history

The history covers 14 periods, 13 switches and 10 different models. Most of them were short.

His longest period is the first one: the Logitech G Pro X Superlight White, from September 2022 to January 2024 (16.6 months, 1.4 years). Everything after it is shorter than a year.

He has returned to two models: the Logitech G Pro X Superlight and the Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2. The Superlight comes to 17.6 months (1.5 years) in total across 2 periods, returned to 1 time. The Superlight 2 comes to 16.7 months (1.4 years) across 4 periods, returned to 3 times.

From October 2024 to July 2025 he moved through several Pulsar models: the X2A eS, the X2 V2 and two Demon Slayer editions of the X2 V2. In December 2025 he spent about 3 days on the ZOWIE U2-DW, then 4.3 months on the ZOWIE U3-DW, listed as unreleased, until April 2026.

The Logitech G Pro X2 SUPERSTRIKE Lunar Eclipse followed from May 2026 for 3.7 months. A 1.6-month return to the Superlight 2 White came next. Since October 2026 he has used the Logitech G Pro X3 SUPERSTRIKE Magenta Eclipse.

Mousepad

sh1ro plays on the ZOWIE G-SR, and has done so since October 2026. The same pad runs through much of his history, next to the G-SR II, the G-SR III, the Artisan Ninja FX Zero XSoft Orange and the SteelSeries QcK Heavy Black. The QcK Heavy Black was in use from May 2026 to October 2026 (5.3 months).

The G-SR is a cloth pad with a Control glide rating. Both static and dynamic friction are rated Very High, so the surface is slow and gives a lot of resistance. It is 3 mm thick on firm foam and has stitched edges. At 47 x 39 cm it is a standard-footprint pad.

Mouse settings

In CS2 he runs 800 DPI at 1.04 in-game sensitivity, which gives an eDPI of 832 and 50.0 cm/360. That is a fairly slow setup in practice: a full turn takes half a metre of pad.

Polling is set to 1000 Hz, although the mouse supports up to 8000 Hz. Windows sensitivity is at 6 and zoom sensitivity at 1.

The 50 cm/360 figure fits the 47 x 39 cm ZOWIE G-SR he plays on. It is a high-friction Control surface, so the slower sensitivity and the slower pad work in the same direction.

Should you buy sh1ro's mouse?

The Logitech G Pro X3 SUPERSTRIKE Magenta Eclipse is an ambidextrous wireless mouse at 59 g and 11.8 x 6.2 x 3.9 cm (length x width x height). It suits players who want a compact, symmetrical shape with a low weight. It can be bought, and it has the HERO 2 sensor, Logitech HITS button switches and polling up to 8000 Hz.

The alternatives trade off weight, DPI steps and switch type:

• Logitech G Pro X2 SUPERSTRIKE Lunar Eclipse is 2 g heavier, with the same length, width and height. Its DPI steps are 50 instead of 100. 40 pros are using it now.
• Logitech G Pro X3 SUPERSTRIKE Midnight Black matches his mouse in weight and in every dimension. It differs only in colour, and 3 pros are using it now.
• Pulsar Susanto-X is 9 g lighter at 50 g, with the same length, width and height. It uses optical switches and 8000 Hz polling. 2 pros are using it now.

All three share the same footprint, so the choice comes down to weight, DPI step size and button switch type.
