      Hi HappyCustomer,

    This scimitar was my first experience into a Corsair and MOBA friendly mouse, the design is solid and with the sliding keys this is friendly to all right handed mouse users. The first thing I noticed was the side light changing colors when hitting the top button, wasn't sure what it was doing until I moved the mouse and the DPI can go up to ridiculous speeds, claims to be pinpoint accurate but it was way to fast for me! Sure those who play competitive on PC will have no issue adapting to it though. The nice thing is you can change the DPI settings for this button in the software and assign to the colors to signify different DPI so you know what the current setting is. The side buttons have a texture to them on every second row from the front to back, so this can help you know where you are on the keys. Using this mouse helped me realize I hold the mouse fairly flat, pretty much palm it, so I have to adjust to more of a claw position to use the keys comfortably. The one thing about these keys is they do not appear to be programmed out of the box, you will need to jump into the software to set their function. It would be nice if there were some defaults configured for popular games that use this style of mouse, or be configure to their numeric equivalent on the keyboard. The mouse is sturdy, and once locked the slider doesn't feel loose at all, I can't knock the mouse on me not being used to the design. I will knock it down one star simply for software, I feel their is a huge learning curve that could be skipped if the software included recommended defaults for games or provided a convenient link to configurations you can load into the software to preconfigure the keys for those who are new to these keys. Mouse has RGB, you can pick how the lights appear solid, breathing, gradient, etc. Nothing crazy, but a little flash to you tabletop. I know some MOBA players who may have some interest in this mouse, I can't say this will make you through out your old and pick this up. But, if you happen to be in the market, the mouse is very comfortable and sturdy, with some bells to catch your attention, the lack of whistles in the form of software makes me hope software update create a more complete package for newbies.

    At first it seems great with the adjustable thumb buttons. But unless it's adjusted all the way back your thumb drags the entire time. The placement of the thumbs are very out of place compared to MMO mice before it. To macro your thumb buttons is a nightmare to get used to. It doesn't even come preset to have 1-12 to be that 1-12....

      Hello,

      You'd need to map those within iCue first before you're able to use them in-game.

      Hello Jason,

      Keep in mind this is a really-well selling mouse and what doesn't work for you works perfectly for many others. Sorry to hear this wasn't a good fit for you, but hopefully you find something that is.

    This mouse didn't even last a month. I don't know if it is the laser or the cord, but I can't even move the mouse to the right before it starts to lock the cursor in place on it's own. I literally have to FIGHT the mouse to move my character's view in any FPS.

    Unforunately these mice might be getting discontinued because there are constant disconnect problems, which occur even in the middle of use during a game. Razer NAGA is more reliable and likely to last longer even with buttons failing after time.
