There are no xsoft versions of the printed ones and the versions in different sizes are not currently available on their website. :( Due to the irregularity in the pattern, the horizontal and vertical straps on the mousepad are not equal but also the soft feel of mousepad is amazing.
hello mel0n! I have this thought that artisan set a high standard for mousepad like 4-5 years ago and other brands are catching up with the quality and productions, talking about the present, is there a brand that might or may have surpassed the quality of artisan mousepads? I noticed that my artisan pads are getting arguably slower after 4-5 months of usage, (otsu and raiden xsoft and zero soft) and I get its normal to develop slow spots, but in my country, humidity is the #1 enemy and combined it with slow spots, it gets really muddy and slow. I just want to hear your thoughts abt other brands that are really good that can compete w artisan.
hmm im in the market for a new x y balanced control pad ! any recommendations? edit: just saw ur vid on the xsoft cerberus I'm guessing this would be more in line with what I'm looking for? I'm momentarily using a artisan zero xsoft but I'm sick of the black colour and need some more spunk in my pad 😅 also find the zero just a bit too slow for my liking
Cerberus X-soft or KUROSUN Samurai are my two tops for a balanced control pad. Kurosun is currently sold out but they're restocking soon (I think), Cerberus is available pretty much everywhere though!
Bro need little help want to try obisidian donuts but some people say it will wear out my mousepad (saturn pro) faster . is it true ? should i try jades mainly play valorant and Thanks for making indepth videos like these
Hey! I've been using the Obsidian Donuts since I reviewed them a few months back and I can say they haven't damaged or worn out any of my pads, even the ones I've been using every day over several months. I never really understood where that notion came from that you could damage a mousepad with PTFE skates. The only types that could "damage a surface" would be like a metal or gem skates with super sharp edges. But even you'd have to like grind your mouse into the pad for it to damage it. Hope that helps!
changed my mind after i pulled mine out of the tube again. i rolled it as it came in and it got these creases. this poron base is trash! video up as proof.
@@GlashausAIMZ That's weird that your base creased. I reverse rolled my first version and the surface creased but not the base. I do agree the pad should have been flat-packed IMO as the pad is much more prone to creasing than I thought.
As always another great video. Please review the ATK Sky XSOFT mousepad.
I'll try to cover it if I get the chance!
@@mel0nFPS Awesome.

any pads that close speed to this control mousepad? la onda rizz? gsr2?
i hope they do more color options (mostly pink lol) and maybe a larger square pad than 500x500
I agree I'd love to see more colors and more sizing. Knowing X-RayPad they'll probably release it at some point!

Hey! Unfortunately, I haven't used any Artisan pads so I can't really speak on who would be equal to them in terms of quality. Sorry!
@@mel0nFPS yes no prob! can you share some of the brands that creates high quality pads?

Nice clips
what skates do you recommend for X-RayPad HEAVYBEE Soft?
Anything but dot skates will be perfect for the heavybee, you can use either speed, hybrid or control skates!

What version did you purchase?
@@mel0nFPS the soft version in black. if it's that sensitive, they should flat package it.
