Marsback, a company specialized in the PC hardware industry and technical gadgets brings back a more powerful and higher performance sweatproof RGB gaming mouse. A built-in, RGB lit fan with a stronger cooling blast directly into your palm, less buzzing noise and higher revolution, Zephyr Pro can effectively evaporate sweat to make your hands feel cooler. The free software allows you to edit and configure the mouse and brings you the ultimate gaming experience.

Last year, Marback launched the world’s first sweatproof gaming mouse with an adjustable cooling system on Kickstarter, which had gained support from more than 700 fabulous backers. Now they’re back with its upgraded version. Featuring a PMW3389 optical sensor, maximum to 16000 DPI, with a scan rate of 12000 fps, Zephyr Pro can track at accelerations of up to 50g, and the movement speed can reach 400 in/s. The reliable Omron switches offer up to 50 million click life. There are 7 DPI settings, simply tap the DPI adjustment button to switch between office mode and game mode. With RGB technology backlit, you can customize different lighting effects for yourself. This also increases the competitive atmosphere of the game and brings up your concentration. You can also set and configure all the RGB effects and DPI on our free software program.

In addition, the geometric shell design is suitable for the palm providing you with ergonomic comfort. The Zephyr Pro has a honeycomb shell that helps keep the weight low at around 68g/2.40 ounces.The surface of Zephyr Pro features a delicate matte coating, which is both greaseproof and fingerprint-proof. The mouse feet are made of PTFE material to ensure a smooth movement. and with a 1.8m paracord cord, which is soft enough to reduce the interference caused by friction while being durable.

The Zephyr Pro gaming mouse has 8 inputs, including its scroll wheel. The buttons are well laid out, with our thumb resting nicely on the forward and back buttons as we move the mouse around. The cooling system button and RGB lighting cycle button are sitting beneath the mouse.

“Zephyr Pro’s implementation should deliver flawless tracking, even if you move the mouse as fast as you can.” said Gary Lin, the product designer, “ The ergonomic symmetric design is for great hand feeling and stress-free use. I love the built-in RGB lit fan as I am the one with active sweat glands that produce excessive sweat while gaming. The right mouse is the most critical weapon in your PC-gaming arsenal.”

  2. Team Vitality – 40.8% to finish 1st; 17.4% to finish 2nd; 77.7% to make playoffs

  15. 9z – 44.7% to finish 13-16th; 14.6% to make playoffs

  16. Imperial – 49.1% to finish 13-16th; 13.9% to make playoffs

It has been quite the run for NaVi despite their loss with back to back grand finals in recent weeks but CSDB.gg’s predictive model suggests there will be no let up for the Ukrainian esports organisation.

G2 will also be looking to build more momentum in preparation for Majors season with NiKo on a quest to finally get over the line this year to win his first major title. Hopefully Rio won’t have to see a repeat of his reaction in the semifinals at BLAST Premier Fall Final 2024 where he punched a hole in a table after losing out to Team Vitality in a key moment.

However, the hosts of Intel Extreme Masters Rio 2024 may want to lockdown any nearby furniture and reinforce their desks if G2 are set for disappointment at the semifinals stage as predicted by the CSDB.gg SuperComputer.

A victory in Rio could be even more consequential for how the end of the year shapes up for the leading teams on the circuit. The Valve Global rankings have both teams close at the very top (NaVi at 1988 and G2 at 1953) meaning a win for either team could hand them a key advantage when it comes to who enters the Majors as top seed.

Back-to-back wins in T1 events for G2, should they prosper in Rio, would set the Berlin-based team on an incredible trajectory going into the winter months.

Meanwhile, Brazilian hopes for glory look slight according to the CSDB.gg SuperComputer with FURIA, the team co-owned by Neymar, having only been given a 20.9% chance of even making the playoffs. 

They are the leading contenders to make an impact for the home crowd but there are other teams flying the flag for Brazil with paiN and Imperial also set to give it their best to give local fans something to cheer on.

In terms of forecasted matchups of note, G2 and FaZe Clan could offer up a fascinating encounter in the quarterfinals should both teams qualify, with each organisation rated as having a strong chance of making the semis with little to separate them should they meet.

The CSDB.gg CS2 Tournament SuperComputer is a predictive model created using world ranking points, team quality ratings and performance trends. An element of randomness is also included in the model to avoid the best teams and players always winning, to reflect the fact that upsets can happen.

Every tournament is simulated 1,000 times with the results aggregated into a percentage rating of the chances teams or players have to achieve the predicted result.
