Best Gaming Mousepad for FPS Games

Having the right mousepad for FPS games is incredibly important. Almost everything rides on your aim, and depending on the game, you might only have a split-second to make the right call and hit the target. But whether you are tracking fire with a machine gun in Battlefield, sniping in Counter-Strike 2, or aiming abilities in Marvel Rivals, you need the right mousepad for aiming accuracy and consistency.

SteelSeries gaming mousepads have been trusted for over 15 years — a staple among esports players and many of our fans. With our new QcK Performance line, you can personalize the mousepad for your style and taste. Whichever you choose, you'll be assured that you're getting a premium product that will also last a long time.

Mousepad options for your FPS titles

QcK Performance Speed: unleash rapid movements

This is for those who want a smooth, quick glide, for lighting-fast movements. This is an ultra-smooth surface that minimizes friction so that you can perform those movements quickly.

You prioritize speed to make swift, broad movements.

We can make some recommendations based on the general flow of certain FPS games, but do note: QcK Performance is about finding the right style of surface to suit your personal needs. So these are just general recommendations and your personal preference might differ:

• Call of Duty

• Fortnite

• Apex Legends

• Quake

These FPS games are rather fast-paced, so they may be a good fit for QcK Performance Speed.

QcK Performance Balance: the perfect harmony of glide and control

Maybe Speed is not your thing. Maybe you're one someone who can't quite decide, or you just need something in between. QcK Performance Balance hits that sweet spot.

You want the best of both worlds: ability to make quick movements, but with some control to make accurate adjustments.

Not every FPS game is super fast-paced. Some of them require a mix of speed and control. Here are some games we'd recommend for this gaming mousepad, however, remember that ultimately this depends on your personal preference:

• Marvel Rivals

• Overwatch

• Delta Force

• PUBG

• Battlefield

• Escape From Tarkov

These FPS titles feature a good mix of strategy and bit more tactical play mixed in with some fast-paced moments.

QcK Control: master pinpoint accuracy

This is for those who don't like their mouse sliding around too much, and value a little bit of that stopping power to facilitate slight adjustments.

The QcK Control's surface features a high-density stich pattern, for more drag, letting you execute precise movements, whether they are sniper shots or similar.

Here are some FPS titles that may be a better fit to this particular mousepad:

• Deadlock

• Rainbow Six: Siege

• Counter-Strike 2

• Valorant

Note that Valorant in particular could really work with any of the styles here, as we've seen gamers favor each kind of QcK Performance with it. Again, keep in mind that these are merely suggestions, and ultimately it is up to you to decide which kind of surface you want.

Premium-quality gaming mousepad that's Pro approved

Many gaming mousepads fray and damage over time, but not this one. Engineered with just the right thickness, this neoprene rubber base is not only resilient, but it also keeps your mousepad static, allowing your aim to fly true. This extra density results in extra consistency, too.

Edges are often where mousepads fall apart, but not this one. QcK Performance feature low-profile stitched edges for added durability, so that they don't unravel withstand for far longer than typical gaming mousepads.

FaZe Clan members, who compete in Rainbow Six: Siege, love the QcK Performance Control in particular. We've received a ton of positive feedback from Dota 2 pros as well, who play on the Gaimin Gladiators team. Esport pros have won so much with SteelSeries products, we are eager to see them continue.

And you join them, playing whatever FPS title you love. Get a QcK Performance now and see the difference for yourself.
