Will this gaming mousepad help that much more for gaming? Especially with games that are fps, moba, and MMORPG? Ex: CS, Lol, WoW, Diablo 3.

If you need free range of motion to play, then I recommend any large mouse pad. A soft surface that is durable and large isn't easy to find.

I don't play WOW, Diablo 3 or LOL. I play mostly fps games, like CS, MOH and Left for Dead. In those games, general game play the pad is not much different than any of my other pads, but when it comes to sniping (head shots) in my opinion I am faster and more accurate with this pad.

Absolutely. It's huge and keeps everything consistent. I play csgo and need a lower dpi to better accuracy. This mouse pad is perfect for that

it is definitely good and responsive as far as performance goes. Where it really shines is the fact that due to the thickness I don't need a pad for my wrist so I am able to rest my arm level with the surface of the mouse pad, which is an ergonomic thing that varies for different people. You may very well prefer to use a rest for your wrist which means you can probably go with one of the thinner ones which I believe are cheaper.as far as size, it's plenty big enough for even the lowest sensitivity players in any game.

its a really good mouse pad. Its large and it works really well. My boyfriend who is a huge raider in World of Warcraft says its the best mouse pad he has ever bought.

I'm not a sophisticated gaming user, but I have a fingertip grip and it works OK for me. Note that the side buttons (on the left side of the mouse) are probably better placed for a palm grip. As with any mouse, you're best off trying it in a store before buying if at all possible.

Yes, I use it for CS:GO. It proves worthy against the best. Also, it's good to know that this mouse has a permanent 450 dpi.

I haven't come across any problems with the mouse, and I honestly think that it does the job. It may not be the best gaming mouse out there, but it's definitely worth buying. Here's what I think about it: If you're into gaming, you really need a mouse, and are low on budget (like me), buy this mouse.

That's really interesting. I have used the Corsair M60 mouse with this pad model for nearly 3 years with excellent results at all DPI settings. The only issue is when the mouse crosses over the steelseries logo. The laser does not interact well with the applied white lettering.Edit: I wonder if the M65's laser would interact better with one of the other SteelSeries pads -- they have several different designs.

I use a steelseries (the big mouse pad) and it works really good.Try to find a mouse pad that is kinda soft cause the mouse feet (bottom of the mouse) can wear down quickly depending if you're hardcore gamer I say a good year our 2.

I would not recommend it for gaming. When mine was working the response time was too slow to be used for quick input. My Sharkk mouse

I have used this pad with a razer mamba, razer abyssus and now a corsair vengence m65. They all worked very well with this pad, even when the dpi is set at the lowest. The tracking is exceptional.

It's only helpful if you use the smart tv like browser, etc.. If you plan on using the browser getting an integrated mousepad/keyboad combo is a must. I picked up the Logitech K400r which has a nice mousepad and does a good job..

for a FPS player, this pad is pretty awesome. its very comfortable and the mouse has little friction issues. only thing that might be a problem is size. its HUGE. so if you have a small desk, it might be better to go with the smaller version

Yeah, I used mine for dota 2 regularly. It's a full palm mouse but not nearly as large as the Razr mice tend to be.Also don't play LoL. Play dota

I definitely would not recommend for gaming. I use it on my desktop at work. It is fine for that, but it does pause quite a bit at times.

I have used the current one for close to a year of daily use 5+ hours mostly for FPS gaming and it has worn what I would call the first couple layers down to where it looks smooth in a couple spots. You can't feel these spots while moving the mouse but if the light shines on it you can tell its worn down some, at this point I simply flipped the pad over and had a new pad again because it is so large I only use half of it to begin with. I just noticed they were on sale so I grabbed another one with the purchase of my new mouse I would recommend this pad to anyone for anything. I personally HATE the feeling of the cloth pads if you are looking for a harder surface that will last this is the right one for you!

I use the 20" separation for gaming comfort. In games where my left hand is using the WASD keys for movement, but my other hand is always on the mouse (so, most PC games), I place the mousepad and mouse *in between* the two keypads. This allows me to keep my two hands comfortably close together, instead of reaching way off to the right to use the mouse. If you game for hours at a time, you'll definitely notice the difference.

This was not a great purchase for me because of how I have to grip the mouse to use. it. I've done some serious assessment of how the thing fits in my hand, and I think with a better grip for the thumb, and a better rest for the palm, it could be good. If you have and use those gel pads with your existing mouse, I think there's a way of setting them up that might work for you. In short, though, you probably have better choices if you have small hands and are looking to offset wrist pain.

Sorry. Can't live without my mousepad. Try contacting the manufacturer. Sometimes they are more than willing to help.
