I laughed hard
But the reality looks like that. For some reason, you can get left-handed version of Deathadder. Others can do the same or sell modding kits. Besides, I have a left-handed friend who uses his right palm for mice, as he preferred ones with more ergonomic shape + using left hand for keyboard is easier.
This mouse is symmetric - for middle hand use only

Looks good, I'm an ROG fanboy BTW, and unfortunately (or fortunately?) I have just gotten a new mouse. Was impressed by Tt ESPORTS Level 10 M mouse, so I bought the Diamond Black version, can do 800 DPI to 8200 DPI, polling rate of 125/250/500/1000Hz.

So this is why they were asking at the forums what type of games did we prefer and what were our preferred peripherals.
Looks slick, just hope it works well.

Look not bad, need a test anyway.
The shape should not be a problem, not so much different of DeathAdder, Logitech G5 mice etc... Maybe not suited for all preferences.

8200dpi? On a single monitor should be impossible to work with.
