It allows you to write faster, or to perform a move in which you need to press several keys as in a strafe in CS: GO, which consists of appearing and hiding behind a wall or object in order to seek information on the map, or "fish" the Sniper enemy (AWP).


    Price

Having this peripheral installed in your gamer setup is a guarantee of great plays.

    The configured skills can be activated through the side buttons. However, the position of these buttons could be improved, as the thumb ends up accidentally triggering the skills configured for these buttons, as happened when testing with the game league of legends (the macro was configured to release one of the skills that are on the Q/W/E/R buttons and ended up spending a skill unnecessarily).

    The mouse Alienware brings 16K DPI resolution, offering a high bounce rate. Good to remember that high resolution does not mean greater accuracy when aiming at the CS: GO, for example, the movement will just be faster and more reflexive. Therefore, you need to test which sensitivity best fits your playing style, and the mousepad also directly influences your choice of DPI.
