A: AnswerNo I don’t think so but I personally love that it’s there. It’s comfortableAnswered by Jattix
Q: QuestionCan this mouse drag click and butterfly click?(2 answers)
A: AnswerIn my experience, it is able to do both, however it's probably going to wear it down a lot quicker because I've already had one other mouse which was the same model and the left switch on the mouse wore down faster as a result of me using it for drag clicking and butterfly clicking, I imagine this to be pretty similar to other mouses in that way as well, so you can do that with this mouse, it's just probably gonna wear your switches down quicker.Answered by Mason

Mouse so nice I bought it twice.
Price: 6.5/10 This is probably one of the most expensive mice I've ever owned. I purchased mine for 95 dollars and had it for a year and a half before accidently spilling tea on it. That's on me though, I loved the mouse so much I bought a new one the same day even though I still had my old Razer mouse on hand. You could pick up the logitech G502 hero which is almost a clone of this mouse for around 50 bucks. At the current price point, this mouse is made for serious gamers/ Corsair enthusiasts like me. It has tons of bells and whistles like weights and macros you can program through Corsair IQ Ease of use: Easily the best mouse I've ever owned. It comes with little weights and automatically detects when you add or remove them. My flicks after I got used to this mouse were insane, I'm talking 20 kills in the first half of a Dust 2 CS match type crazy. The added thumb rest is nice too, its something I never thought I would need in a mouse, but I cant use my pc comfortably without it.

Perfect Upgrade for Comfort!
I recently picked up the Nightsword wired gaming mouse after my Logitech G903 gave out, and I couldn't be happier with the upgrade! The customization options are top-notch, especially with the precision. It is incredible, and the design makes it comfortable for long gaming sessions. If you're looking for a reliable, high-performance gaming mouse, the Nightsword is definitely worth it!

Excellent mouse for grip and comfort and gaming!
The Corsair Nightsword has a great shape to it. I have large hands and it fits nicely. The thumbrest design is great as it prevents your thumb from dragging on the mousepad. The thumbrest is concave in shape allowing you to lift and move the mouse very easily with minimal effort. The rubber on the opposite side where the pinky finger rest also provides a nice grip. The top of the mouse is more of a soft touch plastic with a treaded design for added grip. The left and right click buttons are a matte finish separate from the rest of the body which is nice. The button layout is pretty good for the most part. The DPI Sniper button is reachable but does not sit directly under the thumb which in this case I like so I do not accidentally press it. The Corsair Ironclaw Wireless has larger buttons making them easier to press although the ones on the Nightsword are still good. The scroll wheel feels nice with discernable steps. I really enjoy the fit and feel of this mouse better than the Ironclaw for FPS games. The RGB lighting has a very cool layout on this mouse. It is their best looking mouse. This mouse is very good for FPS games and has all the customizable weights you need. Overall I think Corsair has a winner with this mouse. Can't go wrong with it. Very comfortable and natural feel in the hand. Highly Recommended.
