I think its inspired by Reyna. Her ultimate is also called Empress :)

That floaty feel that you have on the superglide would go away qickly if you got used to the pad, it doesn't take too long if you do pokeball tasks in aimlab/kovaaks. When I started using a skypad which is even faster I never had that floaty feel on it. But I did use a cordura pad before that and there i had that floaty feel and i did a lot of pokeball so when I switched to the skypad i instatly felt comfortable. The fact that the glide stays consistent when you apply more pressure with the mouse is the main benefit of glass imo. And also having the super low static friction on your arm when you wear a sleeve is a big benefit of glass. If you don't care about those two it doesn't really make sense to use a glass pad.

Based on the glide test the empress seems to perform like the OG Cerapad. Maybe consider that too.

Coming from a raiden mid, your description is pretty spot on. This pad was very easy to adjust to. I tried the equate+ v2 before this and while I liked the lower static friction, that pad generated too much friction with my arm, with or without a sleeve. This just feels like a marginally faster raiden mid to me but with an even more consistent base(in terms of pressure affecting glide). Your review couldn't have come out at a better time, literally came out after I noticed that this pad got stocked at the local store I usually get pads from lol

would you say it’s a lot a lot faster than a raiden? And in what way like static or dynamic
@RentABlackout Жыл бұрын
@@fiorxe Slightly less static and less kinetic friction, compared to my 8 month old raiden mid anyway. Probably would be similar to a new raiden. Just keep in mind hard pads feel subtly different overall from cloth cause they're hard. Friction just feels more consistent when you swipe faster/harder or press onto the pad.

i’m currently playing on a vancer ice v1 and i’m very interested in getting a hard pad, I’ve been looking at the cera pad kin a lot recently, for context i play apex legends only basically, but on the vancer i’ve even though i’ve been playing on it for a while it can feel really floaty at times and really slow at times, but i keep it really clean and there’s no slow spots, But looking into the kin i’m scared to pull the trigger because i’ve heard it’s snaggy and can feel slow for micro adjustments, but then with the skypad i don’t want to be missing armor swaps because of the high speed

Quick question before i pull the trigger. Does the micro adjustments feel muddy or sticky on the Empress? I find on the Cerapad Kin that the micro adjustments can almost stick making you miss the target after a small micro adjustment because you over shoot the target

If i mainly play valorant i know its prob better to get the cerapad kin but can i get away with using the empress? overall i just love the design and the micro adjustments is the main part of tac shooters so if thats fairly controlled that's good. What do you think? Also, did you find that you NEED a sleeve for the cerapad? and did it also avoid that floating feeling the other glass pads have?
@AimAdapt Жыл бұрын
This doesnt feel as floaty. Not sure if it would be my first choice for valorant but if you got used to it im sure you can make it work. You may need a sleeve just like all other glass pads if you sweat or if it is humid
