SeekerCorsair SCIMITAR RGB ELITE
The Corsair SCIMITAR RGB ELITE is an exceptional mouse for MMO gaming. It has an adjustable 12-button side pannel, it feels very well-built, and it has customization software compatible with Windows and macOS. It also has great click latency and a low lift-off distance. It's ideal for all hand sizes using a claw grip, but it's well-suited for a palm grip for all but small hands and a fingertip grip for all but extra-large hands. Unfortunately, it has a fairly stiff cable, and its mouse wheel lacks L/R tilt buttons.

Solidly built and finished to a very high standard for the price, the new Scimitar Elite RGB offers a comfortable MOBA/MMO mouse with a lot of macro buttons. It won’t translate well to other genres, though.
