My Razer Naga Pro died and I’m absolutely not buying another one for what it costs. But I also can’t seem to find a replacement with the same sort of layout this one had. I’ll link a picture, but I’m essentially looking for a mouse that has a lot of side buttons but still has a place for me to rest my thumb without having to worry about accidentally pressing buttons. I don’t really like 12 button MMO style mice for this reason, as I constantly feel like I’m going to accidentally press a button. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Edit: I also want to note that I’m right handed, and I hate the feel of ambidextrous mice. I like being able to lay my hand on the mouse and know exactly where my fingers are supposed to go.

    I bought a Roccat Kone XP a few months ago and I’m happy with it. I have large hands and there’s room to tuck my thumb, and the special “shift” thumb button effectively doubles the inputs without jamming a small keyboard on the side.

    Software has been more stable than Razer’s garbage too.

      My Roccat is meh.
      Had both the Kone AIMO and the Kova.

      The Kova developed within 3 or 4 years mushy buttons of moderate gaming (teenager me about 2-3h daily gaming).
      The Kone plastic became shiny within 4 years and creaked. Had to put a piece of folded paper under the shell to stop it from annoying me. Also it develops gamer gunk way too quickly compared the the MX master 2s/3 I use at work for 8h daily.
      The MX 2s only had gunk on the mouse wheel and the coating was solid so far.
      The 3 has a solid mouse wheel and without the jagged edges (compared to the 2s) doesnt aqumulate gunk as easily. Instead the rubber coating is now becoming a bit sticky after ~3 years on the thumb button. Still the buttons are solid.

      Will probably switch to a logitech mouse similar to the Kone shape once I have enough from it.

      About me: I use liquid soap, have usually dry hands and don’t use moisturizer at all. My hands may get a bit sweaty during longer hours.
