What Mouse Does ShahZaM Use?

ShahZaM's mouse history

The timeline has 6 periods, 5 switches and 5 different models. The only model he came back to is the Logitech G703, which opens the timeline and returns in October 2023. Across both periods it adds up to 11.8 months.

The TEEVOLUTION Terra, in use since July 2025, is his longest-used mouse in this history. The longest earlier period is the Lamzu Thorn White, April to December 2024, at 7.7 months.

The Logitech G Pro X Superlight Red (7.4 months) and the Pulsar X3 Black (7.3 months) were also used for roughly seven months each. Every earlier period lasted between 5.9 and 7.7 months, so the Terra is the first mouse to run past that range.

Mousepad

ShahZaM plays on the Pulsar ES2, in use since January 2025. It is a cloth pad with stitched edges and a 3 mm thickness. The table lists the full dimensions.

Before it, he spent 22.9 months on the Artisan Ninja FX Zero Soft Black, from February 2023 to January 2025. That was his longest pad period. He had also used the same Artisan pad briefly from September to November 2022, and the Pulsar x LGG Saturn between the two Artisan stints.

Mouse settings

His two games land at almost the same cm/360: 61.6 in VALORANT and 61.1 in CS2. The DPI and in-game sensitivity differ between the games, but the resulting mouse travel per turn stays close.

VALORANT runs at 800 DPI and CS2 at 400 DPI. That gives an eDPI of 212 in VALORANT and 680 in CS2. Windows sensitivity is 6 in both games.

The Terra supports 8000 Hz polling, but both games are set to 1000 Hz. In VALORANT, Raw Input Buffer is on.

Should you buy ShahZaM's mouse?

The Terra is an ambidextrous wireless mouse with a PAW3950 sensor, optical switches and 8000 Hz polling. It weighs 49 g. At 12.4 cm long, 6.9 cm wide and 4.2 cm tall, it suits players who want a wider, taller body in a short, light shell.

Compared with the alternatives below, the Terra is the widest and tallest. It is tied for shortest with the Pulsar X2N Crazylight Medium. The three alternatives are all narrower and lower:

• Razer Viper V4 Pro Black (10 pros use it now): same weight, 0.3 cm longer, 0.5 cm narrower, 0.2 cm lower. It is the closest match on weight, with a slimmer and slightly longer body.
• Pulsar X2N Crazylight Medium (1 pro uses it now): 4 g lighter, same length, 0.4 cm narrower, 0.2 cm lower. It is the lightest mouse in the comparison, and you give up some width and height for it.
• Razer Viper V3 Pro Black (11 pros use it now): 5 g heavier, 0.31 cm longer, 0.51 cm narrower, 0.21 cm lower. It is the heaviest of the four and the narrowest.

All three alternatives are wireless, ambidextrous and support 8000 Hz polling, like the Terra. The choice comes down to how much width, height and weight you want.
