You're welcome! Hope it can be useful enough for people wondering what the differences are, was very worried this wouldn't be received well since it's my first time doing something like this.
Fantastic tier list Jakeu 🔥 Nice touch with what skates to use at the end too 🫡 That scratchy feeling/noise gets to me more often than I’d like to admit
After as much testing as you for over a year. I can safely say the Razer Atlas is the best glass pad for control and speed. Both my buddies picked one up as well and each love it.
Agreed, I was really surprised the Atlas wasn't on this tier list. Imo I think it is genuinely the best glass pad out rn in the market. It has really great speed AND control.
Guess I'll finally have to get one eventually... Main reason I don't own it is because I don't love glass pads enough to buy multiple ones, hence I basically only review the ones sent out to me.
@@jakeufps It's a need. I had obsidians like a lot of people but I believe @euphraosStuff said cyclones were better on glass so I tried and they're smoother and quieter while still being kind of control oriented.
I have a question, you talk about speed, but not specifically about statics and kinetics of all these glass pads. I own skypad 3 and wallhack and I noticed that the most annoying thing about skypad (which i couldn't quite grasp what it was) is gone in the wallhack. In skypad I felt like the mousepad is obviously fast, but there was something wrong with my precision in CS. After getting wallhack and seeing those static/kinetic friction numbers comparison on their website, I understood what was probably my main problem - the static was too high for such a fast kinetic friction pad. With wallhack there is even more speed, but there is that BALANCE that allows to microcorrrect/change directions etc easier - cause the static is much lower with overall similar kinetic friction. And before you suggest - I need specific pads skates cause I need higher lod so I wont use 0,6 or 0,8mm dots. So what I want to know is if there is a more controlled glass pad, but with a similar more open static friction? I read on a spreadsheet that the Pulsar superglide is indeed quite more controlled than skypad/wh in the kinetic (also from some reviews), but in this case I doubt that the static is low - I have the Pulsar Superglides v2 and they are very slow in static friction, much worse than ptfe, so I suspect the superglide glass pad is the same cause it's the same material (?). So will Empress or Glaze be what I'm looking for? Or Glassworks Akari? So more controlled kinetic but with balanced not muddy static? Muddy is obviously a funny word considering glass pads, but I believe it's more about the balance of static/kinetic
@@yessir4878 i bought glaze and i think glaze is okay in terms of what i need, but tbh overall im coming to a conclusion that glass pads might be not what im looking for. I'm still figuring things out
@@G0ated0 i figured out that full hard pads are not right for CS for me, they don't allow any pushing in. I don't like any soft pads either cause they block the movements too much when pushing in, but I just look for firm pads, especially corduras
Now, I own a lot of glass pads, there is one I recommend most people try. Superglide is great, and you can't go wrong with a Skypad 3.0. But, the ASUS Moonstone ACE. Is amazing. Incredibly underrated. Feels great, large rubber base. Haven't had any issues with any skates either.
Hello, why would you use glass pads over cloth pads? I rcently bought a whole gaming setup and built my pc and my cheapest parts are my keyboard and my mousepad (15 bucks clothpad) so i dont have much pad experience at all
@@lucasgenolini3767 me because I prefer the speed. Plus easier to clean. Now this depends on the mouse and the skates of course. Because some of them are plastic and some mice have metal on the bottom of them. You always gotta start somewhere with mousepads and keyboards and mice. I collect all of them. Working on reviewing stuff myself. Now there are a few different types of mousepads. Cloth, Hybrid, and hard pads. With their own sub categories. They all also break up between Control vs Speed. What kind of games do you play mostly?
@@TheRedMarauder thank you for your explanation :) the only shooter I play is Apex legends, my sens is not very fast (around 1375 edpi which is a tiny bit higher than 800 dpi 1.7 sens) I have a razer viper ultimate since i'm left handed when it comes to the mouse, and I wanted side buttons
@@jakeufps yo, got mine today and I lol'd .. for me it feels more on the control side than the skypad 3.0 that I also own, for some reason. Got the op1-8k (light mouse) with half stock skates half obsidian pros and.. it's definitely slower than the 3.0, however it doesn't feel bad, it's better i'd say..
10:51 I was mislead into this from how they were advertised to work with skypad (I am using the 3.0) I switch to stock skates on my hati htm and they were instantly better. I will keep the dots anyway if I ever decide to buy the sp-004 (if there is a discount)
Great video! I just wish glssworks would make mousepads that were not FOMO. I wanted the newest version but they all sell out so fast and then they go for 3x more on ebay and they could be fake on ebay lol
The Padsmith Empress is still 2-3 weeks away from being in stock in Australia but the Superglide I can pick up today if I wanted. Do I wait or do I drive over and get a superglide…
thinking of slapping some obsidian pros on my wlmouse beast mini and buying a glass pad, does this require good raw aim? and if so would it be good for fortnite iyo, and i play low sens
@@marcovazquez-ou2pv i don't regret getting this at all my aim got a trillion zillion times better, not at first but now that i'm used to it i can't use anything else. Although i didn't get obsidian pros i got jade dots 😱🙏🏼💯
@@kristopherfnbr why would u do that? Unless you bought dozens of Jades, they will get shredded by a skypad. Just get the x-ray obsidians or else you will burn through your money. They are literally meant for glasspads meanwhile Jades are not, it even says in the site not to use Jades on glass
@@marcovazquez-ou2pv jades work just fine on glass pads, i know from experience and because i saw many youtubers say the same thing. I got 40 of them for about 14 dollars after shipping and taxes, And i use 4 and switch them monthly. Jades are recommended for glass pads by lots of people
@@kristopherfnbr do u aim train by any chance and if u do what is your voltaic rank. Also RUclipsrs say a lot of things yet many of them can't aim to save there lives
I don’t find the “anime girl” pads corny, how ever the ones that are lewd, skimpy clothed, booby, booty etc type girl pads I find extremely degenerate. But I think the Skypad sora and yume, and shiny version are super clean designs
dont get a skyepad i have a skyepad and it shreds your mouse skates, they reccomend getting their obsidian pro mouse skates but that has $40 shipping this is aud btw

Small correction about the GLSSWRKS pad; Apparently it will also be balanced, in between sonar and empress in terms of speed most likely.
Ohhhh yeah. Looking forward to this list. Commenting before even watching is tops.
Feel like I might make the Empress my first glass pad with all of the reviews I've seen
did u get it? how do u like it?
thank you for the tier list jakeu 🙏

@@jakeufpsI own the atlas, it’s probably the best middle ground for glass pads

Great tear list from one of the best reviewers you know you can trust. banger video as always bro!
I can't wait for my wallhack🔥
Thanks dude! Really appreciate the support 💛
@@jakeufps Thank you man
Appreciate the great content bro
Based. I'm also enjoying the Padsmith.
Are you gonna try the AKKO glass pad?
I'll try reaching out to them!
Jakeu W as always, you should definitly try the cyclones dots though, better experience on glass than obsidians IMO.
Thank you! Getting some next time they send me something 🫡
@@jakeufps It's a need. I had obsidians like a lot of people but I believe @euphraosStuff said cyclones were better on glass so I tried and they're smoother and quieter while still being kind of control oriented.
No Cerapad Kin v2 in your review? Its controlled, ceramic fast pad
is that jakeu my king?
I just bought the wallhack with your links thanks
Thank you too!
your desk is so fire and clean😍🔥
we need more of this❤
I think the disclaimers and notes at the beginning are great!

Cool vid but.. no Acari from Razer or Moonstone from ROG?
ROG Moonstone is basically impossible to get at my place, and I couldn't get a unit. Acari is not a glass pad, but their Atlas is (but it's coated...)
@@jakeufps correct, mistook Atlas for Acari and viceversa.. was looking at both of them.
@@jakeufps yo, got mine today and I lol'd .. for me it feels more on the control side than the skypad 3.0 that I also own, for some reason.

Gamesense sonar is so under rated, nice pad
Def. underrated, especially since it's less than $60 still.

nice video , what s the coated for ? or what are the cons and pro for a coated mouse pad
I guess it’s possible that the coating will be worn down over time, thus making the pad feel worse and worse over time
Extremly based video as always! (also congrats on 5k (youll get it in like a day so im saying it now lol))
HAHAHA, thanks dude! Appreciate you 🙏
@@jakeufpsofc man
I guess you filmed it more than two day ago? The SP-004 already is released by now, at least here in the EU, and I got mine two days ago (tuesday).
The cosmic pad has both a control and speed version :)
There’s a RED empress coming soon??? Did I hear that correctly? 🤔🙏🏽
Yup!
@@jakeufps Damn, now I have to choose between the purple empress and the upcoming red one 😭
wish you also had a review on the speed (blue) version of the empress
What about the Razer Atlas ?

Great video! I just wish glssworks would make mousepads that were not FOMO. I wanted the newest version but they all sell out so fast and then they go for 3x more on ebay and they could be fake on ebay lol
just bought the op18k should i keep the stock skates on to use with the new wallhack pad or put obsidian dots on the mouse? :D
The Padsmith Empress is still 2-3 weeks away from being in stock in Australia but the Superglide I can pick up today if I wanted. Do I wait or do I drive over and get a superglide…
i ordered mine few days ago, cant wait lol, should have next week

You should try cloth glides on glass pads
How often do you normally change your skates I get around 2-3 months until it becomes quite difficult to track consistently
are jade dots good?
why are all glass pads gigantic... i dont have that much room. does a small one exist?
Thoughts on padsmithb empress blue speed?
Does the black lotus agl have any difference compared to the other lotus mousepads from esptiger?
Razer Atlas?
That’s what I was wondering about too, but I have a razer atlas and it’s more of a control pad in terms of glass
Please try a glasswrks pad pls
Check out my review on the Akari here: ruclips.net/video/KFRYgNbiacA/видео.html&lc=UgzGprwqCWvQrMsvx6F4AaABAg
w video! 🗿
Thanks dude!
Whenever I think glass mouse pad I think of a window on my desk
Skypad 3.0 gang
Razer atlas?
what abt the empress speed?
its very fast, like skypad 3.0
ive skypad 3 xl
i got a skypad 3.0 on sale for $60 which was definitely worth it but i don’t think the glass pad experience is worth +$100
It’s annoying how these pads are never available
what about atlas?
a random kid: Mom mom i want a boardzy reviuw
mom: we have a boardzy reviuw at home
boardzy reviuw at home:
go suck boardzy nobody cares
why are they all sold out or $300+ 😢
What desk do you use?
Lil bro forgot the ROG Moonstone Ace L
SuperGlide#1.
razer atlas?????
don't own + coated 🗿
damn no razer atlas
why are all the designs so corny
fr bro
Most aimers are weeb degen coomers
I don’t find the “anime girl” pads corny, how ever the ones that are lewd, skimpy clothed, booby, booty etc type girl pads I find extremely degenerate. But I think the Skypad sora and yume, and shiny version are super clean designs
It’s a reflection of the depraved discord coomers that buy them
@@DonutMonster13 they are corny, it says something about your character if you own one like that
dont get a skyepad i have a skyepad and it shreds your mouse skates, they reccomend getting their obsidian pro mouse skates but that has $40 shipping this is aud btw
Yes thats what glass does to ptfe
ik i’m late but there are more skates than the obsidian pros that are durable on glass
I'm so sad that there is no Razer Atlas🥲
