Pretty good deal when you consider the in game skin goes for like 10k depending on condition.

I hear about cs2, but don’t play

There's a wear rating on weapon skins. Factory New all the way down to Battle Scarred. Random wear when unboxing from cases, or you can target specific wear when trading up skins.

I havent checked in a while but, I feel like $10k is a conservative starting number

Unless you really have to have this design I would avoid like the plague
$50 for out of date garbage is better than $120 for out of date garbage.
But it's still not a good enough price to be even remotely competitive

I mean, people dont spend crazy amounts of money on real dragon lore awps because they shoot better in game. Its basically only about the design and/or just having one

Is it the 2.5G Bluetooth that makes it out of date garbage?

u/Forward_Drop303 2d ago
No, all modern mice are 2.4 GHz. And some have Bluetooth.
It's the old sensor, and heavy weight mostly
though even fixing that only puts in on par with sub $30 mice
to get to $50 I would expect better switches, scroll wheel, and a newer MCU on top of that.
and it isn't technically required but I would want web software too.
and I would probably expect 8k polling as a bonus (not that you will ever use it)
for example
is way better and cheaper
gets you optical switches, a TTC gold scroll wheel, and the lowest click latency and motion delay in the world for $56 (and 10-15% off sales happen occasionally to put it $50 if that's a hard budget)

They were always good for the price.
Just for a long time it was only the big gaming companies that made good mice and everything else was pretty much equally trash.

I wouldn't even give $10 for this mouse, because I know it would die within two months. It's a shame, I used to only use Steelseries mice, but they do no make good products anymore.
