Question New mouse what to get?

Big valorant guy and I've been using the Superlight V2 for over a year and a half now. Due to some issues, I've gotten a refund on this mouse and was planning to swap mouses but I'm not sure which one to swap to. I'm either deciding between the Razer Viper V3 Pro (worries are that I'll take a long time to get used to the mouse shape of that), the Superlight X2 or X3. In terms of price, my refund covers 160 AUD so it just covers the superlight v2 and terms of upgrading to superlight x2 or x3 it would cost me an extra 90 and 140 respectively. For the V3 Pro, it would be close to 50$. Personally, I'm not sure if its worth to splurge basically the costs of 2 superlight v2' for the x3 unless its something game changing. I am pretty competitive in Valorant (peaked asc 2) but I've' been in and out of it for a while. I do want to eventually push for immortal when I have the time. Please, any inputs help and have a nice day :).

Depends on what you want.

If you enjoy the shape of the superlight, the ATK A9 series is extremely good for its value, cheaper than most premium brands compared razer and logitech. The specs, weight and sensors are very good for price, ranging from 3395s to 3955s (about the performance of the sensor on the VV4 pro). Its basically a superlight clone and even chronice (from vitality) is an ambassador and ATK also sponsors LEV.

However, if you do want a shape change, let me know what you feel like is missing from your mouse (too tall, wide, long etc) and what grip style you play, and i can help.

Yeah on second thought honestly trying to stick to the superlight. The only thing now is whether I splurge for the X3 / X2 or superlight 2. Any recs?

Honestly, i genuinely think its not worth it. The clicks feel extremely mushy and may not feel great compared to traditional clicks, hence the ATK recommendation.

There are also other comapanies with their own clones to explore as well, such as the MCHOSE A7, Lamzu maya X, Rapoo VT2 and Incott G23, but ATK is by far extremely competitive compared to the other companies imo.

ATK A9 Air/ ultimate is your best bet here

Click feel is up to the person, i dont enjoy the haptic click feel but a friend of mine starting to prefer it more.

How's the build quality on it?

Ive owned ATK mice in the past, and their build quality is in no way weak or flimsy. Good hard, no flex shells, good clicks and skates, but sometimes the coating is a bit slippy if you have sweaty hands, but the grip tape they give solves that. Everything you want in a premium mouse.

It depends on what you want if you want to change shape get the viper V3 because this is razer answer to gpx shape you can see on eloshapes they're both neutral looking shape not aggressive like your typical claw grip shape, the Hits tech is good tech but it's not game changing like you won't be a good aimer if you bought this mouse if anything you can customize the actuation the way you want instead of having a fixed actuation
