Artisan Hien (Black/XL) [FX-Hi-SF-XL-B] FX Soft (Japan Import)

Product Information

I think this is the perfect mousepad for gamers that want to get out of the muddy control mouse pad world, but don’t want to go all the way to glass level speed.

Even on the same surface, it opelability changes clearly depending on the hardness of the intermediate layer.

The Artisan Hien is a mouse pad to consider if you don’t know if you want to go super fast but know you don’t like control pads.

This also means that this pad has a lower level of stopping power but that is to be expected from a fast pad. Among these Artisan mouse pads, the Hien is one of, if not the most popular and highly regarded mousepad. He's been reviewing gaming peripherals for almost a decade and has reviewed hundreds of mice, keyboards, controllers and other gaming peripherals.While the hardware itself is good (especially with mods) we should not forget just how amazing the software side of things is for Wooting users. The biggest issue with the Artisan mousepads is availability and the overall cost incurred when purchasing one. Artisan always strives for perfection, they are never satisfied and always challenge themselves and the industry by being innovative and not compromising on quality. Once again, I have used A LOT of pads over the years but never have I seen such a unique rubber base used on a mousepad.

Using tape for improved glide is not a novel concept but in the context of glass mouse pads (SkyPad 3. the only thing to "complain" about is that there are different speeds on the X and Y axes, it's just a matter of getting used to this if you go from a standard mouse pad with the same X and Y axis speeds.

Because the mousepad literally sticks to the table I CANNOT move it unless I lift it off completely and place it once again the way I want it. Some people do find the texture too much for their skin or that it snags on sleeves, I didn’t find that an issue at all, I love the texture.

This allows you to move your mouse with ease from a full-stop and continue your glide seamlessly while micro-adjusting your aim. Until this point the Artisan Hien mid gaming mousepad has received unending praises, but here is where the narrative changes a bit. Artisan does a lot of things correctly when it comes to their mousepads, and packaging is part of that. There is compatibility with the surface of the desk where the mouse pad is placed, so it may fail two or three times. At MaxGaming we are constantly in pursuit of the latest in gaming and scouring the market to be able to offer you the absolute best.The downside of this special surface is that it is rough because of its textured surface but it is still nowhere as rough or textured as an MP510.

The pad comes with three softness levels, XSOFT being the slowest, SOFT is the midrange and MID with the fastest overall speed.
