ArtisanHien (Black/XL) [FX-Hi-SF-XL-B] FX Soft (Japan Import)

This mousepad feels almost like sandpaper. Providing grip with my final mouse ULX. Every movement is precise.

Zero = too slowHayate Otsu = too slowRaiden = too fastHien = juuuuuust rightI've tried all those Artisan pads and eventually this one seems to have just the right mix of good speed but still just a touch of control to keep it movement from being too wild. I've used this in wild, fast paced tracking shooters like Apex Legends and Overwatch, to flicky, angle holding games like Rainbow 6: Siege and Counter-Strike and the Hien provides whatever you need for either. Versatility and good quality, would recommend if you are unsure of what kind of pad you need.

Coming off a basic QcK cloth pad I've been using for years, this is an incredible upgrade. I've never used any kind of speed pad before, and while the material and feel was a little odd at first, after a few hours of use it was incredible. Aiming with this feels so free and natural, I don't ever see myself returning to muddy/control cloth pads. I may experiment with the Zero sometime down the road, but I primarily play faster paced games like Apex, and I don't play competitively at all, so I don't necessarily need to maximize control for games like CS/Valorant. The feel of the glides are so smooth and comfortable, it's hard to describe until you've felt it for yourself. Definitely recommend.

Good mousepad but not worth

This is the one and only end-game mousepad on the market. Outstanding quality and craftsmanship.

As always this one don’t disappoint hands down some of the best mousepads out there , it’s really good

I do love the speed and control of this mouse pad, for more information about the softness if you're looking for more control for slower games such as Valorant go for the Artisan Zero, if you're more into faster paste games like Overwatch and Fortnite go for the Hien(This one) and you can choose between Mid-Soft-Xsoft and the softer it is the slower it is, but the sweet spot for most people is the Hien Soft.As for myself I love the Artisan Hien Soft and you really need to give it a try!
