I put the Kabuto right to work by packing it up with my LAN rig. To test it out I packed up both the Orochi and my Deathadder. I found the size of the Kabuto to be small enough to make it portable and just about large enough to game on. I say just about because I did slide off a few times in heavy fire fights. Part of that was just adjusting to the size; by the end of the LAN I had no more issues. If you were packing this up with your laptop for day to day use you would never have that issue. The rubber base does a great job keeping the pad from sliding around. The Kabuto itself is fairly thin at only 1.2mm’s thick. This means you will barely even notice its sitting under your mouse. Both mice slide over the cloth surface quickly and easily, it doesn’t have the same feel of the hard mouse pads that I prefer, but its in line with other soft gaming pads.
