Since the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike<\/a> launched a few weeks ago, one of the biggest questions has been how much it will change the market. As of right now, it’s the only mouse with proper analogue switches that allow for super-light actuation and rapid trigger. It’s not really been a question whether<\/em> it will change the market\u2014it will\u2014rather the questions are when, and by how much? I’ve had my own speculations, but we’ve now got an industry insider’s speculations to go off.<\/p>\n

Ex-pro gamer and now-Pulsar marketing and sales specialist FrostyZK<\/a> recently sat down with rodent boffins ManPhalanges<\/a> and dazztrazak<\/a> for their regular MouseCast podcast<\/a>, and the Superstrike was, of course, brought up.<\/p>\n

When asked by dazztrazak whether he thinks the Superstrike’s haptic clicks will take over the industry, be 50-50, or whether the market will maintain mostly “normal” clicks, in three years’ time, FrostyZK responds:<\/p>\n

“I think it would be like a 50-50, because you have your gamers who don’t want to use new things, like the hardcore CS pros, the heavy mice. The market is split right now, right? There’s the enthusiasts and there’s the hardcore pro gamers who like the old stuff… They like using the same old mouse pad from a year or two years ago… I think I would probably lean more towards the 50-50.”<\/p>\n

He has more thoughts about how it will affect the market over the shorter term, too:<\/p>\n
