To achieve a perfect Butterfly Click, talent and practice are sometimes not enough. Your hardware is the main bottleneck. An unsuitable mouse will prevent you from exceeding 12 CPS. Here are the best mice to dominate at Butterfly.
Why does the mouse matter so much?
The Butterfly technique relies on the natural 'Double-Clicking' of mechanical switches. Manufacturers usually set a minimum delay (Debounce time) to avoid phantom clicks. To reach over 20 CPS, you need a mouse whose software allows you to lower or completely disable this debounce time.
1. Glorious Model O / Model D (Wireless included)
The entire Minecraft PVP community agrees: it is the undisputed queen. The Glorious software allows you to set the debounce time to 4ms. Its honeycomb design makes it ultra light, and the very wide design of the left click button makes it easy to position two fingers. Get ready to exceed 20 CPS regularly. Be careful, however, with very recent switches that may use optics (always make sure to use classic Omron or Kailh mechanical switches).
2. Roccat Kain 100 / 120 AIMO
Although harder to find today, this mouse remains legendary. The plain and flat design of its buttons offers the best bounce regularity ever created. It is excellent at Butterfly but absolutely monstrous for Drag Click, where it is known to register up to 60 CPS without flinching with a good finish and Grip Tape.
3. Bloody ABBED / A60 / A70
A series little known to the general public but revered by Drag Click and Butterfly purists. These mice from Bloody have a fairly complex macro software, but their hardware is designed to withstand extreme clicks and intense friction.
4. Logitech G502 Hero
If it is not a mouse specialized for pure PVP with its 120 grams, it has the advantage of having robust switches and a large button. But it shines with its other function: the famous hyper-scroll free-spinning wheel. Ideal for testing our Scroll Test where scores go to infinity.
Final word
Buying the best mouse won't do all the work for you. The angle of attack of your fingers and the position of your hand remain essential. Continuously test your progress to monitor the evolution of your clicks!
