Most used pads are Destroyer, Smooth Criminal and Dornfinger Präzipad. Latest additions with very good first impression are EGG EM-C and Focus Ambition. From your list, I'm most interested in the InfinityMice Pad lineup once it's available in the EU.
Yeah I have the EM-C coming soon! and almost waited to make this video but at the same time I kept pushing this off cause other pads kept coming and I needed to just make it xD
@@UpgradeLemonade Something is always on the way. Once you start waiting, you can't stop. Totally understandable. And overall it's a good lineup that makes sense. The new arrivals can compete for your next big round up at the end of the year :D
I've been rocking a skypad and honestly its been such a game changer for me, so I have never really sought to try other mouse pads since then, but I will have to give some of them, like the cerapad KIN. Such a clean review thank you!
personally ive had a lot of issues with my kin. I find it almost impossible to clean for a glass pad. it feels like dust, pet hair or really anything that gets on the pad refuses to wipe off without water and elbow grease and it makes it extremely unpleasant to use compared to my superglide or skypad where i can just use my sleeve to wipe the pad real quick and have it good as new. also found for me its very jittery, like the mouse is catching and makes it hard to smoothly track slower moving players/objects.
sorry its not been a great experience with the kin :/ sounds like superglide or skypad is more your style, nothing wrong with that! that said, i never found it overly difficult to clean, sometimes ill need a spray solution if I havent cleaned it in a while. Its still significantly easier than cleaning a cloth pad. Also I find myself having to clean it less often than skypad, the kin isnt AS affected by small hairs for example. And yes it def has more friction than both the glass pads you mentioned but again less than a lot of cloth pads
I don't wanna bother you but when approximately would you upload the atlantis mini review? I've seen your positive comments on haus' video on Twitter. Much appreciated if you have any info, thank you.
LOL not sure it was overly positive comment 😅 but unfortunately they ran out of OG 4K review units and I am not a fan of the mini so I might be skipping this review entirely idk. They might be able to get me an OG 4K at some point soon so we will see
Which of all glass pads would you recommend for someone that has always used slow/control mousepads? My previous mousepads have been a Artisan Zero, G-SR Rouge and now using a PureTrak P-51, but all get dirty and kinda makes me want to try a glass pad.
Do you have issues with your Zero mid sticking to your desk? I just got an Otsu mid and a Raiden mid and they won’t stay in place by themselves. I had to put small squares of packing tape on my desk in order to give the base something to stick to.
Not really , I mean it will slide if I push it, but while I'm playing it's perfectly fine for me. MID foam is just like that unfortunately, part of it's properties. You can also apply a small bit of water in the mid foam to get it to stick if you want to try that
I heard InfinityMice have a v2 version of their control pad, still smooth but slightly faster now. cant confirm cause I havent used it, its on a preorder status atm. Worth looking into especially for the low price
Sadly the Infinite Control V2 that's about to drop pretty soon has a new faster surface which ruins its uniqueness, it bring it more in-line with the Saturn. Kinda bummed, was really hyped on this pad based on the original version.
I have the Artisan Zero XSoft, Vancer Ice, and Lamzu Energon. I've liked them all at different times this year pretty much. Gonna try this cerapad kin next, it is expensive, but its obvious I like mousepads lol.
I also really like the zero and raiden mouse pads. But I personally think the reason for choosing raiden is because of the consistency of the x-axis and y-axis and how smooth it is. So I personally prefer the mid raiden. Because x soft will destroy its slipperiness and the consistency of x-axis and y-axis. And for the zero I think the mid makes it too similar to some other mouse pads. I would choose soft to ensure its specificity.
I only got the new Saturn Pro in Soft now, but a quick comparison here the Saturn Pro is just a touch more controlled but its not a big difference. like on dynamic friction is where the Xten feels a bit more open/quick. Also the foam is a touch firmer on the Xten so I think that play a roll in the consistency and speed difference.
@@UpgradeLemonade hmm... would you recommend one over the other (disregard price here xten is on sale anyways) for tac fps? currently playing on a 500 x 500 saturn pro, which surprisingly, im bouta sell as the square size messes up my monitor setup (there's no arm). anyways, to summarise would you say there would be a better pad/noticable difference between the two for tac fps
@@riceoverwife for me personally the Xten is and always will be my go to control pa(that's why it's in the video 😅) it strikes the best balance of speed and control for me. In terms of your situation it all depends on what you're looking for in a pad (beyond just sizing) both of these pads are used in tac fps and you can adapt to both fairly easily.
I use whatever to be honest, but also I changed pads and mice often cause reviewing, so it's hard to gauge durability of skates I have a skate roundup video coming of pretty much every skate I could find. It's just gonna take me some time to make the video like I want
@@UpgradeLemonade lamzu energon. do you think that was a good choice? btw im even more unlucky than you think because 2-3 hours after i bought it i heard that lamzu blade X and Y released. i didn't see any reviews yet but I think Lamzu always makes great-quality peripherals and probably Blade X and Y will be awesome. +for my country Blade X and Y preorder costs 750 and energon costs 1100. that hurts a little bit but as everybody says energon is great so im not that sad about my choice
People are going to ask: The game is called Combat Master (free on steam) 😅

Very informative video. I have now found additional pads to add to my list.
your list has to huge by now haha
@@UpgradeLemonade i don't even remember what's on it
Interesting lineup and video 🔥 The Xten 🍋 pad looks awesome! Would be really interested in trying out the Kou. A friend of mine keeps recommending it
Kou is HIGHLY underrated. From the perspective of an enthusiast it's def worth playing with since it's so unique, mid or XSoft.

The one in the video 😌 (I haven't tried every glass pad but of the one I have this is the best control)
Try LGG Saturn, it's a better Zero and doesn't really degrade over time either
@@xblur17 No I really want to try a glass pad, most cloth pads they just randomly get some stains you cant even get rid of them and bothers me 😅
Xten sound like a really cool company 🤙 Bday present is a wicked touch
Great video as always. Currently using the Equate Plus V2 and can't come off it. I might have found my perfect pad.
Ya I seen a lot of people enjoy it 😌 glad it works well !
Great roundup bro 🔥

What would you rec for someone that mains the Xten, likes the speed, but might want something softer/smoother?
I heard InfinityMice have a v2 version of their control pad, still smooth but slightly faster now. cant confirm cause I havent used it, its on a preorder status atm. Worth looking into especially for the low price
very solid picks! a mid xten control would be so good
We pray 🙏
Sadly the Infinite Control V2 that's about to drop pretty soon has a new faster surface which ruins its uniqueness, it bring it more in-line with the Saturn. Kinda bummed, was really hyped on this pad based on the original version.
lgg saturn or infinity mice control for valorant?
Both are solid but the infinity mice is slower than a Saturn so you just have to determine what you prefer more
I have the Artisan Zero XSoft, Vancer Ice, and Lamzu Energon. I've liked them all at different times this year pretty much. Gonna try this cerapad kin next, it is expensive, but its obvious I like mousepads lol.
Yeah it's hard to pick a bad pad lately 😅 you got some good taste 👌
i am waiting for your thoughts on the cerapad kin, i am hoping it lasts a lifetime with minimal maintenance.
How does the infinity control compare to the vaxee pa in terms of speed?
its a bit slower than a vaxee pa

That's the beauty of Artisan , the ability to really customize them to your preferences. Not many other pad companies have that 😊
Nice round up! Yes indeed, Infinity Mice kill it this year (so far...) 🙂
mmhm :) and thanks homie

What size is the Xten pad?
It's their medium size (biggest) 460x400x3mm
What mouse is in the video?
ajazz 199, review coming soon
what mousefeet you use on the cerapad, or hard pads in general? and how often do you change em?
great video as always (;
I use whatever to be honest, but also I changed pads and mice often cause reviewing, so it's hard to gauge durability of skates
I have a skate roundup video coming of pretty much every skate I could find. It's just gonna take me some time to make the video like I want
@@UpgradeLemonade thanks for the answer, cant wait for the video :D
i love your videos cause you dont rush, but give details and quality
@@EnormeEkoH happy to hear you enjoy em 😌🙏
What game is it in first clip
- looks at pinned top comment - 👀 😅
It's called Combat Master
@@UpgradeLemonade tbh i didn't know how i didnt see it😂😂 ,Anyways thx bro ❤️
That's why he's the GOOOAAATTT
Much love LOG 🪵❤️
bought KIN with ur code
That's awesome! Hope you enjoy it too, 🤘 ty for the support
@@UpgradeLemonade Can you tell me what clothpad would be similar in speed?
@@underh1gh zero mid, Xten control
Was it worrhV
@@Vinzsolos lol no sold kin and bought 3 zero again
for play genji is? xd
For genji? Mmm Cerapad kin or Raiden will feel nice
@@UpgradeLemonade is classic right?
@@josecamiloalejandrotaquich2304 classic to save a few bucks but same surface yes
12h before this upload i bought a mousepad lol, unlucky me.
Dam the timing lol 😆 what pad ?
@@UpgradeLemonade lamzu energon. do you think that was a good choice?
btw im even more unlucky than you think because 2-3 hours after i bought it i heard that lamzu blade X and Y released. i didn't see any reviews yet but I think Lamzu always makes great-quality peripherals and probably Blade X and Y will be awesome.
+for my country Blade X and Y preorder costs 750 and energon costs 1100. that hurts a little bit but as everybody says energon is great so im not that sad about my choice
havent watched the video yet but there is energon in this list, right?
@@RylnX no Energon, it's a good pad just not one I used much personally
@@RylnX the blade x and y are made by Wraith not Lamzu. I havent tried em tho
My feelings are hurt.
I realized pads with a rougher texture I just never use long term, idk why just always go back to smoother feeling surfaces like Raiden or zero
