Artisan Hayate Otsu Review - Better Than The Hien? 

Tuckz, seriously thank you This was a VERY good and informative review CLEAR audio GOOD information and i love the incite about how the same x/y difference and super low static frction can create the illusion that it's faster than the hien. that was super great bc i was watching other reviews and many were saying it was faster than the hien which contradicts what is said on the artisan website Thank you once again.

I have watched a lot of mousepad reviews, but this review is something else, extremely informative and to the point. Good fucking job!

Hi, have you ever used or heard of cordura mousepads? And whats your opinion on it?

Had my Otsu for 2 months now, got Hien yesterday and you are spot on... can't understand why people say Otsu has more stopping power than Hien. Otsu feels premium like no other pad on the entire market but performance is meh.

Hey do you think getting a Hien over Otsu while trying to switch to a low sens would be a good move? I am mainly a Valorant player, cheers!

Ey, since a whole time has passed i was wondering what would u say now between the hien and the otsu any preference ?

Tucks, I'm using a Logitech G Pro X Superlight on a GSR-SE and I hate the mousepad (After 3 months of usage only). I have 0.324 800DPI Sens in Valorant and I flick alot so I'd like to have good stopping power but still a smooth pad. Also I tend to put pressure on the mouse and I use the top side of the mousepad (arm player). What do you recommend? I feel like after watching reviews and videos the adequate mousepad for me is the Artisan Hayate Otsu (XSOFT). First I thought about going with the SOFT (Safe bet, can't go wrong with that) but people say that the XSOFT on the new hayate isn't like the xsoft/soft on the zero. I don't want my mouse to drown in the mousepad. Sorry for the long comment and thanks in advance.

Which one do you think is better for stopping power and speed Hien or Otsu ?

how's it been holding up now? considering buying it since its in stock rn, i mainly play val and dont know if i should just wait for a zero restock

Razer strider seems very sped to me and the razer gigantus v2 very slow, now I don't know whether to buy the ayate otsu o zero.

How is the Otsu v2 holding up compared to the Hein after 6 months?

For the people who are confused . The pads he talked about in the vid are all from the same company named artisan. They make all kinds of pads from cloth to coated / mud to speed pads. Think about it like this for sports we all have different unique type of shoes we like to wear when playing a sport and some may be comfortable and some might not. Which is why there is no real way of saying which pad is the best between the artisan pads. Don’t get me wrong artisan is the best mouse pad company out there. Which is why it’s so hard to say which is the best pad bc it all goes down to preference. I only tried two pads from there which I loved both (hien and zsro ). Two completely different pads which are the great in their own way. Hope this helps a little when buying a pad since it’s not just a mouse pad. This mousepad will have much more impact on ur gameplay. Hope u find ur main pad. Good luck guys !

Hey man, nice video! I have 2 questions, 1 what sleeve are you using on your right arm 2 did you end up liking the Hayate Otsu after long term use?

what sleeve works well with the pad i have a h4x sleeve and it doest6 work well at all it only works well with the Y axis do you have any rec?

hmm so did u stick hayate or hien?

Didn't even need to watch the video because you had the answer in the thumbnail... maybe don't do that next time? Either way, like from me

I already have a hayate otsu and love it, now i want to buy another artisan mousepad what do you think i shoukd get a raiden or hien?

at this moment, would you recommend the hien over the otsu? it would be my first mousepad fort competitive gamming, I am used to play on the desk, my desk is very smooth, and fast lol it does not have any texture

I have a zero soft, a zero mid and a hien soft.I love the zero mid but it's too slow, instead the hien soft at the beginning I liked it a lot but after breaking it became too slow for me ... I would like to know the hayate otsu mid is slightly faster than a hien soft :c

i miss the streams :-(

Im getting the hayate otsu xsoft and the zero xsoft

Worse then a Hien, Worse then a Zero, just lmao.

I’m looking for a pad similar to vespula V2 control side. I am a wrist player with a high DPI. Harder Control pads seem to be my sweet spot

comeback for reviews man this is gold... whats your main now?

Wait the gameplay at 1:22 the same as the zero gameplay ???

What’s the difference between the mid otsu and soft?

Great Video

Question. Got the Skypad 3.0 but it felt too weird. I liked it but there was no stopping power at all which wasnt great for CSGO but wonderful for COD. I currently use the GSR SE which is rly shit. Like i need something in between from speed to stopping power. No big stopping for every single small movement but still power, yet also Speediness because i use a low sens (CSGO 800 dpi 1.8) and i flick a lot. A lot of people tell me to get the Zero Soft but some argue that the Hien is better because it doesnt wear out fast but also doesnt feel muddy like the GSRSE. You got any tips??? i rly dont wanna return 500 mousepad and wait 5 years for the other one to get here which i maybe hate and get the first one again.

Should a beginner go for xsoft or soft?

Hey tuckz I need help

Him: "not recommending this for valorant or csgo" NV yay (El Diablo): 😂

I only been using mine for 2 months and started to feel speed difference on the part i use :(

If I can use a kitchen cutting board than you can use your current mousepad

Bro you shit on me in realistic 💀🤣

what keyboard is this?

Nice

nice review !

soo now its bean years does it stay good?

What sensitivity do you play on with the hayate otsu soft?

Bro, you talk way to damn fast.

Have you tried an AC+ strata uncoated? which is close to it? Hayate or Zero? I want to upgrade to an artisan pad, and looking for a pad which has a good speed and good stopping power. I play Valorant and Apex Legends.

True review

Hey im a nerd and i like your video !

I want to replace my Hien so badly, but every Artisan Mousepad that I want is sold out sadly. I'm a big fan of the basic Hayate FX mousepad, but my cat damaged it. Wasn't able to get another Hayate FX soft L ever since.

Hien lasts longer than the otsu but the otsu is supposedly the better pad I have the hien and I do not regret having it at all prolly will cop the otsu

Will you recommend this pad for someone uses a low sens? I am currently using a g240 which i would like to upgrade on

for a viper mini 1700dpi, Which one would you recommend?

Does the Mid feel too rough?

Forknife

that slippery initial friction is what made me give up my Endgame MPC for Hien soft, even changed tiger ice to arc v1 still wasnt enough. The hien just feel like a perfectly balanced quick pad

Still maining it?

I still struggle to get comfortable with the hien. Idk why the Otsu just felt right out of the box. I think speed feels somewhat similar but with the Otsu stopping on a dime is so easy.

Great review!!! One question after see your review I guess Hayate Otsu is more similar to Razer Gigantus right? I like medium mousepads as this the better of both speed/control worlds. Is right to say Zero is more close to GSR or G640 and Hein is more close Strider? Thanks.

how was the mid for flick shoots compare to the soft?
