It's interesting how you said you don't like the artisan base. I read online somewhere that the reason the price is so high is because of the base. It makes up like 70 to 80 percent of the cost. I've never owned one, but I just found that interesting.
Try the Artisan Raiden if you don't like the course or rough texture. Not really a fair comparison tbh. The Raiden honestly is a silky smooth surface, the smoothest pad I've ever used that wasn't a glass pad.
@@ZXTech for most people, it immediately becomes end game material. you should check out fresh reviews video titled “best mouse pad ever made” and you’ll get an in depth explanation on why it’s the GOAT and he’s one of the few reviewers who’s actually tried hundreds of pads and is really high rank in the games he plays so he’s not just shilling or talking out of his ass like some reviewers on here (cough, boardzy) also, please make sure you get the v2 edition of the raiden, if you buy from amazon there’s a chance you receive the older not updated raiden. best to order directly from artisan themselves to make sure you get the newest version. looking forward to hearing your take on it! also want to note that I have the xsoft variant, as the mid softness is a much faster experience with the glide. i mainly play tac shooters so the mid would be too quick for me, and xsoft is the perfect middle ground as you can press into the pad so you have very steady aim for example holding angles and needing your mouse to be extremely steady. it provides more than enough speed with the xsoft variant, while also providing more than enough control so it really is the best of both worlds.
I recently ordered an Asus Harpe Ace, but I didn't get the Aimlab mouse pad with it. I assume it isn't necessary because I already like the feel of my Artisan Hayateotsu. I've tried the Hien before and found it to be a bit scratchy too. Why not try the other Artisan pads?

Why did they spend so much money on the base lol
@@Billy_The_Frog because the base keeps the mousepad on the table, the less your mousepad moves the more accurate the tracking
I’ve also heard a lot of the cost is the flat shipping they have
I have an Artisan and the base is literally glue even if it doesn’t use poron
The base is really good, but not for certain tables and usage styles

@@VVSPRINCE thanks so much for the info! Ill look into it
ohhh I love how you tested the mouse glid on the mousepad, actually creative
I think the Optimum Tech way of Using a hairdryer might be a little better!
@@ZXTech I think they both get the same point
Try comparing it to the lethal gaming gear roundup
Ill try

Plan to in the future!
How did you order it? I can't find anywhere to buy the mouse
I think this mousepad isnt any near the build quality of artisan's counterpart but its good for the price tho
fair assessment
You deserve more views.
Thanks man! With your support ill get there
Cheap Redragon Archelon mousepad has pretty much the same surface.
Interesting
Comparison versus the Zero?
Sure ill look into doing it
Where I can order this pad from UK?
Dont think its out yet
when is the mouse coming out for usa
Supposedly feb
@@ZXTech okay thank yoo
You dont like poron base?
Not a fan. Too easy to move when im flicking hard
But its all subjective tbh
@@ZXTech you having mid base?
The surface for ROG still virgin tho.
Ive played 30 hrs on it alr LOL
I really love your content but this video looks extra-sponsored
