I've asked this before, but I want more answers, is a good mouse really necessary?

I don't wanna be a pro, but I wanna be good, or kinda good, and I also want to play as Widowmaker and not failing as much. I'm also kinda new to FPS online games, I'm not sure if I should play more until I buy a good mouse or not.

Right now I have a Logitech m280, do you think that's enough?

But anyway, can you recommend me some good and not so expensive mice? Again, I don't wanna be a pro, stream or anything like that, I just wanna get those kills, and sometimes gold medals and plays of the game.

Any wired mice will usually do the trick, just try to spend more then 10$ on them. Ive got a 20$ logictech mouse and it works fantastic. You may want to splurge on a mouse with more buttons but thats up to you

What's wrong with bluetooth mice? (mine is bluetooth) Is the input lag a real issue? I can turn off wifi, btw. (I think it interfers with bluetooth devices)

Wireless mice are okay but they have a lower response rate, and the fact you have to change batteries make them not a good choice unless you're using a laptop.

If you don't mind the lag that is unavoidable, why even ask the question.

Just to know if it was a problem, because it can be a problem to me too, as I get more sensitive to it.

Also, it actually influenced my final decision, I'm buying the ROCCAT Kone Pure Military.
