Mouse settings by Tarik

While most pro players like their sensitivity to be extremely low, tarik prefers balance. His mouse settings strike a balance between speed and accuracy.

The weight of his Logitech MX518 mouse allows playing well with the above configuration because the MX518 is one of the heavier gaming mice on the market. Tarik uses an XL size mouse pad, Razer Gigantus v2 to make sure he has enough space to perform flick shots when needed. The mouse’s polling rate is 1,000 Hz, which reduces latency to the lowest level.
