Leetgion Hellion RTS gaming mouse review

I was recently sent a Leetgion Hellion RTS gaming mouse, and I’ve enjoyed using it so much, that I decided to give it a review.

It was specifically designed for Starcraft II players by a sister company of the ultimate CPU cooling solutions co., Thermalright. They decided to get into the game of peripherals, and I’m sure glad they did.

With a price tag just shy of $80 US dollars, it’s on the pricey side, but if you’re a PC gamer looking for a super-responsive, lag-free RTS mouse, THIS is the one to get.

The Hellion is specifically designed for RTS gaming, but can also be used for everyday PC use, and has 4 pre-set profile settings (all with different-colored, corresponding LED lights), and a final fifth setting, which is completely customizable to your liking, and allows you to load any custom-made profile directly on to Hellion’s hardware.  You’re also able to customize EACH profile setting through the Hellion Configuration software, if you so desire.

The pre-set profiles are as follows:

Setting 1 – Default – Glows red

Setting 2 – Terran – Glows blue

Setting 3 – Zerg – Glows Purple

Setting 4 – Protoss – Glows yellow

Setting 5 – Custom – Glows green

It also has seven adjustable DPI levels which range from 100 to 5000 DPI.

And it’s got mechanical buttons.  I LOVE MECHANICAL BUTTONS. They feel absolutely flawless and deliberate.

I must say… I’ve never really had a ‘luxury’ mouse before, so this is a first for me, but this one is amazing. The feel of the mouse is sleek, soft, and smooth, and…just…all around PERFECT.  I would say my hands are AVERAGE sized, and the fit and feel of my hand resting on it is pure bliss.

Seriously. I wouldn’t lie to you.

Even the packaging shouts luxury.

It arrived  to me wistfully placed inside what appears to be a Pandora’s Box of eye-catching, clean, yet sophisticated infold.

Whether you’re a serious PC gamer looking to up your game and some of your hardware, or someone who spends a lot of time on your computer for work or play — THIS is a mouse everyone can appreciate and feel like a king–or queen— while using.
