Equipment Analysis
Shox’s Mouse – The french Rifler is using the infamous Zowie FK1 as his mouse of choice. The FK1 is designed for both right and left handed players. From out tests the mouse works well for both claw and palm grips and works best when playing with pistols or any popular rifle (AK, M4). Highly recommended for riflers!
Shox’s Mousepad – Shox is using one of the most popular gaming pads in history, The Razer Goliathus is one of the first true gaming mouse pads and one of our all time favorites. When it comes to mouse pads we always recommend to choose your own mouse pad based on 3 factors. Size, material and design. The Razer Goliathus Shox is using is of optimal size and is made out of the highest quality cloth you can get. The design is also great and we highly recommend it to those of you who like Razer and their unique designs.
Shox’s Keyboard – The Zowie Celeritas II is one of Zowie’s latest products and its gaining massive traction within the pro gaming community. We have used the Celeritas II for quite some time now and we can vouch for this incredible keyboard. It features all the standard bells and whistles you would expect from a high end mechanical keyboard with the added bonus of the magical Zowie touch!
Shox’s Headset – Shox is using another widely successful product as his headset of choice. The HyperX Cloud Alpha is one of HyperX’s most popular products and in our opinion, one of the best headsets in the world for CS:GO. The Cloud Alpha features pristine sound quality that will allow you to hear the most subtle sound ques such as footsteps or enemy jumps. The microphone is also great and your teammates will hear you with clarity.
Shox’s Monitor – The entire G2 Esports squad is using the BenQ Zowie XL2540 to conquer the battlefield! We have said it countless times in the past but BenQ are the best gaming monitor brand in the market and their dominance among the Esports community is surreal. The XL2540 is one of BenQ’s best products and it will give you an unfair advantage thanks to its 240Hz refresh rate and the DyAc and Black eQualizer technologies.
