Mousepad
xertioN plays on the Razer Gigantus V2, a cloth pad measuring 45 × 40 cm with a thickness of 3 mm and stitched edges.
The surface has medium overall glide. Static friction is high and dynamic friction is medium, so the pad takes a little more force to start moving than to keep moving. The foam is firm.
He has used the Gigantus V2 since September 2022. In January 2025 he changed to the Razer Strider, and in March 2025 he went back to the Gigantus V2. He has used it since then.

The mouse polls at 1000 Hz. Zoom sensitivity is set to 1.1.
A low DPI paired with a mid-range in-game value means each 360° turn takes 47.2 cm of mouse travel on the Gigantus V2.
