Having a precise mouse is good. Controlling it perfectly is better. Choosing a mouse pad is a step that should not be neglected so that it will fully satisfy you.
The best rugs sometimes offer several different materials to support your gaming skills.
The base (rubber or other non-slip material) sticks to the surface on which the mat is placed. Unable to slip during rapid movement.
The top layer is the most important part for demanding players. This is because depending on the surface, your mouse will glide faster or slower, giving you more control for rough surfaces or more speed if the surface is smooth. The coating also has an influence on the accuracy of the sensor. It is not for nothing that most mouse pads remain sober and do not offer a "hologram" type pattern. This reduces signal loss and maintains optimum accuracy for your mouse sensor.
A distinction is also made between soft mouse pads and rigid models. The former are particularly useful for nomadic players but the sensations are the same for both types.
Finally, it should be noted that some reversible mats offer a double coating to leave the choice according to the player or the game.
· What size for a gaming mouse pad?
It must be recognized that the surface of a rug is much nicer than the hard and cold one of your desk. Also some models have taken their ease and are installed under the keyboard. Comfort and aesthetics are the main qualities of this type of accessory, but a mouse pad in XXL format is not without interest. Indeed, it offers a large range of motion, very pleasant for strategy games or even first person shooters, and allows you to better appreciate the changes in sensitivity triggered by the programmable buttons of some mice.
· The style
Offering a stylish mouse pad is nothing new. Some sometimes associate with an editor and adorn themselves with the colors of a particular game, others display a brand motif… But the RGB wave has also been there! More and more manufacturers are thus offering carpets with a customizable backlit edging, whether they are flexible or rigid. In fact, they can synchronize with the rest of the setup.
· Thickness
What could be a good dimension? For example, ES Gaming mats are 4 millimeters long, to ensure precise mouse movements. And also to allow the mat to last longer and easily withstand our long days of play.
Ultimately, it all depends on how each gamer picks up the mouse and how they play. Are you one of the pushers and pushers, or those who fly over the mat?
· The surface, non-slip and waterproof
It is very important to choose a non-slip rubber surface for our gaming mouse pad. In this way, we will avoid losing precision during the game, as this type of material restrains the movement of the mouse. Also check the seams: they should always be reinforced to prevent wear over time.
If for some the choice of a mouse pad comes down to its look and size, you should know that there may be other criteria to look at. This will be of interest to the most advanced hobbyists hungry for performance, but it can also have an impact on day-to-day use. In short, choosing your mouse pad can be done quite simply, or with a few nuances.
