Omg finally, this is the FIRST review on this on UA-cam, let’s go!!!!!!
Aye what's up Dienky YT. Glad to see you here bro!
I tried ordering these kind of mouse pads years ago but everything was Japanese and translator wasn't so good lol
Boardzy is better
@@zbitx_6552 on god
Lucky u got one of the most hearts
YES I Stand by them being the best!!!!! i requested this review thanks so much for doing it😊
ayyyee you're the one that pushed me to do the review crimnvL so THANK YOU! :)
100% most underrated tech UA-camr. Keep it up bro
Tbh BT and Rocket Jump Ninja r underrated tech review channels
RGN is a god at mouse reviews xD
Edit:
RJN*
But mousepads is not tech
@BadSeedTech is underrated too
Hu Cheng he doesn’t only review mousepads
maxwell true
Ive been using the X-Soft Shidenkai for over 7 months now. I have some spots here and there but it still glides incredible. I tested out the Glorious mousepad and thought something was wrong, then i changed back to the Shidenkai and felt the massive difference it provides. Its unique, you cant ever go back to a normal cloth pad after using this. I cant recommend this enough, its a work of art.
is it silicone?
@@cqajagsaw Its a special mixture of foam with glass coating on top which has the ability to bend. Ive never had a surface anything like it before.
@@Avean what size did you get?
@@kobi2962 XL
A good way to clean the Shiden Kai is also to use furniture polish! Minimizes wearing down of the glass and improves the glide :)
What furniture polish tho?
up
I've been watching your vids for a pretty long time and I think the coloring and visuals are beautiful keep up the good work my man
Every time I’m looking for a new component for my setup, you’re there to review it. Thank you for making these tech reviews!
About time someone talked about Artisan pads. I've yet to see any tech reviewer even mention them.
EDIT: 5:26 is that Porter Robinson I see in the background?
YES BT! I've been scouring the interwebs over the last couple of weeks, trynna figure out whether I should buy the Glorious Helios hard pad or the Shidenkai. It sure was hard to figure out which one would suit me better as there is like a couple of reviews on the Helios, and like one proper review of the Shidenkai, then some 6-year-old glide speed tests, rather strange. After watching this, I'll be ordering the Shidenkai, mid version. Imagine a pad with glide and performance of a hard pad and the softness of cloth seems impossible, yet it's a thing, I can't pass it up.
try getting an xsoft one if you want it to last. ive went through 2 shidenkai mids in the last 6 months, both of them the glass coating started to flake off but with my new xsoft one the coating is the same as the day i got it
@@0GSJDIGOH wow, didn't expect the coating to be that fragile. Won't my wrist sink into the pad though?
@@kronos7678 if you use claw/fingertip grip your wrist wont sink into the pad unless you REALLY try to make it sink in. i actually have a glorious helios and the glide is a on par or a bit faster than the shidenkai although i don't use it since i prefer the feeling of the shidenkai over the helios.
"Im man of the people, i got to give what yall want"
Shiiiiid send a gtx 1080 my way lol
Ps: back with the champ shirt 🔥
Always!
I've settled on an Artisan Zero Mid XL, it plus my Skoll S is freaking amazing. It's so damn good to play on, and tracking, flicks, all of it is smooth and on point.
Could you do a review on productivity accessorises? (side scroll wheel, good ergonomics, ect) love the vid as always!
Can you enable the closed caption? I am Deaf
Please and thank you, I might look forward to this new mouse pad.
I am current using Qck+ Steelseries heavy for 4 years.
Okay I can do that :)
@@BTaesthetics you didnt ಠ_ಠ
Brandon Taylor dick head
xyr maybe he is gonna enable it on future videos
native pipe down you go and make a video ungrateful git
Man your really on your shit for all the mouses and gear I type in your channel always comes up, you earned a sub my friend
Honestly best reviewer out there the quality of the video is just amazing
I dont know how you do it but you kill it on every video, keep up the legendary vids you're a God amongst men
Thanks Wayzz! Appreciate that bro!
someone must like r/mousereview
Wdym?
I'm always lurking on there
@@BTaesthetics I saw that paracord on your divina and knew :P thats actually the color I wish I had now because it would go with my lighting color scheme on my keyboard and mouse. I got the polychromatic one from paraflex
@@BTaesthetics join r/mousereview discord
@@BTaesthetics what size mouse pad did u get
Such a great video! im excited for my Hien, gonna try and get the Shidenki
This guy is pretty underrated but he’s such a good reviewer
Got a artisan hien because of this video. Didnt get the shidenkai because I want to have some control in my mousepad. Thanks for the video.
7:24 As a person who owns a Shidenkai FX, X-Soft for 6+ months now. I can say durability is an issue because anytime the mousepad is pressed on too hard little flakes of glass come up and mess with the feel of the mousepad as well as when ur moving your had around you can feel them getting stuck to your hand. This could be that I'm too rough for this mouse pad for it to work for me. Results may vary.
Click I just ordered both the Shidenkai FX X-Soft and the Zero FX Soft. Now after seeing how many people are saying that the glass particles are flaking off over time, I feel a bit worried haha. But still want to try it out nonetheless.
You are the best. Thank you for this review, I didn't even know about this mouse pad before, trying to get one in hard but they are sold out! Soon it will be mine...
Which one are you going with Ryan? Thanks for watching!
do a glorious extended mouse pad review plz
will do.. plus a giveaway of one?
Brandon Taylor giveaway would be insane, you’re the best
They’re very good at first but I found it to get worn very fast
I have this mouse pad and it's terrible. Just feels weird.
@@caseywright3506 I've been using the 3XL since November and it feels great
Review the Glorious modell 0 when it comes out.
Your a legend please more mouse mat/pads reviews bro!!!
literally was sooo upset no one had a quality review on this yesterday, then you come in clutch the next day😂
BT, I see you teasing us with the paracorded S2
yep :) going to be working on a guide for it this week!
@@BTaesthetics bro which mouse feels smaller s2 or the gpro wireless ?
also which is smaller between gpro hero vs divina s2
dewan avi I’ve had both but honestly the g pro has a better shape and feels way lighter and it’s wireless!
S1* S2 is the pink one
Deftaly it’s a difference in size not just the colod
Protip: spray a little mist of water on top of the desk and then place the mousepad over it - It sticks and stay in place firmly.
No don't do that
The grip on the bottom of the mousepad will wear out... Keep doing that and your mousepad will slip with just a flick
If it already does its time to get a new mousepad preferably a good quality one
@@zeroxiiimk2 just tape it to your desk with double sided tape
@@Bearnos LOL or that
Man your video quality is on point! I'm excited for you to go big with your channel, you deserve way more subs than you have!
I really enjoy your mouse/mousepads reviews !! I think you could do a review of the lexip ceramic mouse feet
I had one of the original artisan mousepads and it was great for a couple of years. It was like a hybrid cloth/hard pad, probably the medium variant or whatever. It stayed black and did not wear like other mousepads I have used.
A couple of things that bothered me were the frayed, non stitched edges, which has been fixed so all good there. The other thing was the mousepad would slide all over my desk which became extremely annoying. Happier now that I have a soft pad that doesn't move... The mousepad moving all over is the main reason I had to move on from it.
I play ESEA and I am rank A. I can attest that the hybrid pads can make your aim very strong in things like rifling, it makes spray control easier. The caveat is, less flick shots with awps, at least in my experience. Again, this is based on the older iteration, I have not tried the new versions.
Bit of a strange one. You're praising it highly, but it's already showing signs of wear? Would have been cool if you could have done a more in-depth comparison between the common mousepads and this as otherwise it just feels overpriced and unreliable from what you've said (doesn't pick up some sensors, already showing signs of wear, other mousepad doesn't have consistent accel on horizontal and vertical axis which is kind of important).
I have a shidenkai x-soft XL, as there is a glass coating on it using water to clean it can mess with its bonding to the underlying surface. To get the best longevity out of it you should not wash it, and only fold it so the face of the pad is facing outwards otherwise the surface can crack as it says on the box.
@@pitcher1716 i went through 2 shidenkai mids over the last 6 months, i have an xsoft one now and the glass coating isnt flaking off like it did with the mid
@@pitcher1716 yeah when he was bending the Pad the way he was with the shidenkai was MONKA S , all i could think of was hes ruining the pad lol rip
@@robgutierrez1590 pledge only works on my helios or my glasspad, the shidenkai is cloth so it will mess it up lmao
Finally been waiting for someone to do a review on these
Great review, I’ll probably get the Divina and you’ve gotta love SureFour
im glad you made a review for this.
Of course! I got you guys Starquis!
to prevent the mousepad from sliding you spray water on the bottom and it will "suction" onto the table.
amazing review what softness did you buy for all three (xsoft - soft or mid?)
I have the FX Hayate OTSU XL (mid), and the FX Zero XL (xsoft).
I would say the zero feels like a regular mouse pad (it was made to mimic the QCK), it's really consistent, with a lot of stopping power. It's surface feels like butter compared to the Hayate, which feels a lot more rough to the touch, while being Slower than the Hayate, must have something to do with the weave they used. The xsoft thickness feels like MF memory foam, super comfy, prob the most satisfying mouse pad to rest your arm on period.
Even with all that being said I only used it for a few days before going back to the Hayate cause it had consistent spin out issues with the Finalmouse Air58, must have something to do with my arm concaving the mousepad (my best guess). Also after using a faster pad I didn't want to go back to a slower one. Speed feels soooo good.
Got my Shindenkai in the mail, now we wait :)
Q Brandon: Why are Hyperglides not good on the Shindenkai? you said it feels floaty like the sensor isn't picking up the mouse pad, so the Hyperglides raised the mouse up to high or?
Edit: Spelling error
Different skates affect the zero aswell for some weird reason.
Stock replacement Roccat skates i got (non rounded edges) were way way faster than my Corepads on the zero, and low speed flicking were slower than faster flicks/movements.
But then again from talking to other owners, thats a feature i guess.
the glass one is very nice, only for esports teams/ high payed people.
you'll need to replace quite often.
I need one of these, they look sooo good!
If your artisan mousepad slips around your desk, pour a few drops of water on the base and spread it evenly, it will stick like glue and the stickyness is permanent (until the mousepad is lifted from the desk and base left to dry).
Say no more! Done thanks for the tip
@@BTaesthetics Please let me know if it works on the shidenkai, it works wonders on my hien xsoft and I'm excited to try it out on my artisan shidenkai (coming in 2 days or so).
Thanks so much I love ur tech reviews their awesome
Nice Video I just found you! You are so chill and the review was great!
Tbh, when I searched for a mousepad video, I was actually looking for the video of S4 talking about mousepads. Funny that you referenced it.
Zowie mice work fine on my Shidenkai mousepad, and Artisan mousepads all stick to my desk incredibly well. Try spreading just a little bit of water under it to make it stick better
Thanks to you, I now know that there is a brand dedicated to making the highest quality mousepads. I'll probably get the Hayate Otsu and Zero and compare them to my impulse bought Razer Goliathus Control mat. I subbed btw, you have a _chill vibe._
Amazing review and setup, so fancy. You gotta train kovaak harder tho, bro :D
Great quality video dude ur gonna blow up in the tech community trust me.
Thank you so much for that Ryan! It really does reassure me that I'm on the right track!
love this video, you get my sub 🤘🏽 definitely going with the shidenkai
What would be the best of them for Model O? I'm currently a palm gripper, but willing to change.
Great job mate but tbh the site is a bit confusing....it doesn t even tells u how much it costs in dollars or pounds.🙈🙈
Think of it as 1 dollar to 100 yen. Not sure about pounds tho. Could always use google
Nice review, I was thinking about getting, but now fore sure I want one.
Great channel, dope reviews.
Hey Bt pls do a review of the Corsair K65 Rapidfire (Cosair TKL Keyboard)
You are the embodiment of r/mousereview haha I love you and this channel so much
I have a Hayate otsu mid, Shindenkai soft and Zero x soft. They are all great but the Zero is the best for FPS imo, It is just perfect for micro-adjustments so if you like sniping as Widowmaker for example give it a try.
Did you buy it from the artisan-jp site? Having trouble finding my item in the cart and where the best place to buy it.
Thank you so much for this awesome video, I really did never heard of this brand before and now, thanks to you ;) I do, and am absolutely flashed!
(Does anybody know when or even if they are going to restock the SHIDENKAI in the size XL?) (Thanks for your answers in advance, fab!)
nice review bt... yeah prolly one of the best... I still prefer my Gigantus except for the embossed logo (blergh)
i was thinking about getting the Hayate Otsu and i wanted to know besides quality is this better than the gsr and how so? please lmk thanks
The fact that you went out of your way to get these pads tells me I that you review what the people want. I like to take my reviews from EVERY review I can find. No offense to RJN but he seems to not give a shit about the community. Keep it up
My goal is to put you guys first I’m glad that’s coming across. I’m just like you guys a consumer that just wants the best products for their money!
I own an artisan shidenkai FX x-soft XL. The x-soft varient allows for more stopping power as you can adjust your pressure. I would only really recommend this for claw and fingertip players tho. This mouse pad is seriously insane tho, if you want to see what its capable of watch a player called Huddled.
Nice been waiting on this.
Hey Man, what is the keyboard in the backround? Love how it looks
The ambient lighting kinda throws off the colour for the mouse pads and makes them look weird
Very good review, thanks!
Where did you get that cable for your keyboard!? 4:40
I think he made it
@@Seylle. And I think he got it at zapcables.com
he got it off of Mechcables
Mechcables, but there are other artisan cables you can check out too!
@@EcstaticPyro do you know if there are any that makes connectors that uses at least usb 3.0? Was looking around on a deq sites but only found 2.0
just when I'm looking for a review of artisian my boi come up clutch
Glad I could help Noir!
ya boi bent the hell out of that Shidenkai I nearly died inside :O
YOU HAVE THE BEST REVIEWS AMAZIN !!!!
How do you only have 45k I dont understand video quality is great and explanations are great
Thanks blanca I appreciate that! Working hard to have the channel grow! Thanks for your support
question:
can i use the Shidenkai for my glorious model o? PLZ let me know Thanks!
yep i'm using them together as we speak
Brandon Taylor would it be good with low dpi and low in game sens?
Karl Keil I’m interested in this too
What practice shooting app do you use ? Btw great review will get 1 maybe this dec 😃
Ay, I've always wondered what desk you use because it is CLEAN af
What keycaps is he using?
can u do a review on your new keyboard keycaps they look pretty nice
Pls review Audio technica ws1100is !😁 i heard this headphones it's good for gaming
What exactly is the issue with the Shidenkai and hyperglides? You talked about the issue with zowie mice but never went into depth about the hyperglide issue. I love your content by the way, you and I both seem to be taking the same rabbit-hole down r/mk and r/mousereviews lol.
Finally someone who makes a video of them!
glad I could help!
nice mx518 legendary,loves that mouse!
finally a quality review of the artisan shidenkai!!!
Thanks William!
Good review. Which one is closest to the G-SR-RE?
Are these mousepads still the best in the world also would it work with a razer deathadder elite and glorious model o?
Another Great video bt!
you have to put water on the bottom of the mouse pad a little bit of water then spread it out it works great!
I wish they had like a store for gaming. Where you could try different mice and mousepads so you can choose the best one for you. Ik it takes time to get to like something. Something you think is good at first might not bet later. But it's better than spending a lot of money and then knowing what it's like.
Rjn said cooler master mp510 for best aim and stability but these are seems good though, i dont know why but i am very obsessive when it comes to mouse pads, love you and your videos.
Love the vids fam!
Did the Anne pro 2 giveaway end??
Yeah.
Yes winner was posted to my twitter. There will be a 50k giveaway with 4 seperate winners so stay tuned :)
yes
Thanks for reviewing this I asked u last time what it was and now I bought it. Also, for u Logitech Gpro wireless or Finalmouse Ninja Air58
You can go for a g703, g-pro is just a bit smaller and lighter with a longer batterie. But same performances
Shidenkai + GPW stock skates is the best combo, especially after they've worn in. Hopefully you will review the Zero too...only Artisan pad i dont have.
Yuke Gaming What about the Corepads?
Always on top of the latest and greatest reviews my dude! My question is if I have the Zowie S2(hyperglided), air 58(hyperglided), and the gpw and I use a claw grip which one should I go for?
Def g pro wireless
Christopher beltran I have all of those mice I meant which mousepad out of the ones BT showed
If you rub down the rubber base with a wet cloth it will stick to a surface like glue. Had the same problem.
cool! thank you
I am getting a Hayate Otsu FX
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
The pink one looks cool
What is the shipping time from japan to america? and how much are they??
Hey Brandon, i have an interesting mousepad for you to checkout.
It’s the SPC Gear ENDORPHY mousepad. It’s in 3 sizes M, L, XL.
It’s made from Cordura fabric by the way. It’s watter ressistant and has stiched edges. The surface is a speed version. I would be very thankfull.
Let me check it out thanks for the recommendation Dominik!
It's all about the smell xD the pink one looks so sick, nice vid!
haha some mousepads make tears come out because the rubber smell is so strong!
@@BTaesthetics ah okay😅
So, a couple of weeks ago I got both the Hayate Otsu in Soft, and Shidenkai in Mid. I noticed that the backs on these pads were different, with the Hayate Otsu kind of having an opaque coating/film that makes it more sticky and grippier on the desk (whereas the Shidenkai just has that shiny bare foam backing). Is that the same with yours as well? From the looks of it at 2:45, that seems to be the case, but I just wanted to make sure.
Are those marks/indentations on the Shidenkai something to worry about? Are they permanent or am I just seeing it differently from the video? I am talking about the pink one.
Hey BT, thanks for the video! What keyboard cable are you using?
mechcables.com custom cable with aviator plugs :)
Damn, no Zero review? That's the one I was most interested in, since it's the closest to the GS-R apparently.
Its the slowest and the most control
