Mousepad war!

What do you think?

Which types of mouse pads are the best ones for which type of mice?

For example: Hard vs soft pad / 5$ bestbuy vs "professional gaming"

Or maybe go naked with your table and don't use one?

What are your thoughts about them?

PS.: I am using a roccat aluminum hard pad

Corsair MM200 compact gaming pad. I have only used this style so I can not compare to anything else. But I really like it, really smooth aiming and mouse movements and it is nice and thin so the elevation difference isn't too much like a really cheap one I had before.

Here's mine, I just recently replaced it. I find that it usually lasts about 3 months and that's with me using it 12+hours a day every day. It starts t o get wrinkly from sweat or a bit fuzzy from the mouse going over it over and over. It is smooth, feels great, is cheap as dirt and can be used as a scratch pad if you need to it really is great as a mouse surface and it can be any shape/size that you want it to be, I had it over my whole desk at one point.

Hehe at least you have an awesome rig. Such a pain having Pentium 4. Can't play sh*t smoothly. Dont even have OpenGL. I think Im going to be making the biggest leap in terms of upgrading ever. Going from a Pentium 4 to a R9 280x? Yes please!

My Razer Vespula is 7 months old and is already coming apart. The control side is delaminating, it started just on the edge and is now about 20% of the left side. A quick google search informed me this is kind of common. I absolutely loved it until this started happening.

Been using the XFX Warpad for over a year now and it's pretty good, had a SteelSeries Qck before that which was too thin.

I say it depends on the mouse you have purchased in the first place. I have a Cyborg RAT7 (great mouse, would reccommend) and i have a Cyborg GLIDE3 under it. one mousemat can fit well with one mouse and perhaps not as well with another.

LOOK AT MY TUBE, MY TUBE IS AMAZING. DONT LICK IT IT DOESN'T TASTE LIKE ANYTHING. IT DOESN'T HAVE A MANE OR PENIS EITHER. SHUT UP.
