Introduction to the ESPTIGER Skates

Esports Tiger (ESPTIGER) produces a wide variety of mouse skates, not only for different mouse models but also offering multiple variants for each model, each with unique feels and properties. Someone interested in their skates might find it confusing to choose the best fit due to their extensive lineup.

Hopefully, this post will guide you through their selection, ensuring you find the perfect skate for your needs.

Tiger Arc 1 & 2

Starting off with the safest choice that is an easy recommendation to most people and that would be the Arc 1 and 2 skates.

These are the safest choice from their lineup just because they are a good baseline skate to start off with.

The Arc skates are a good middle ground as they aren’t too fast or too slow and are very comparable to some of the better stock skates found on mice.

The Arc 1 skates in my opinion are one of the better skates when it comes to best bang for buck because you are getting two pairs of skates included for around the same price as a single pair of skates.

With these skates you have the choice of going for the V1 or V2. With the V1’s they are faster but do slow down a fair bit and start to feel like some of the better stock skates. The V1’s also don’t really pick up the texture of the mousepad.

The V2’s are also thicker and some mice tend to have issues with tracking due to the skates raising the mouse a bit too high up.

The V2’s are faster and also have less of that tuggy feeling to them. With these you do feel the texture of a pad way more but at the cost of them sounding pretty scratchy and noisy. Also with the V2’s you only get one pair in the package.

Overall these are a great skate for anyone that mains slower games such as Valorant or CS2.

Tiger Ice

Another popular option from ESPTIGER are the Ice skates.

Compared to the Arc skates these are a faster skate in general. Perfect for someone that thought the Arc skates were too slow or you are just using a slower control/mud pad and want to gain some more speed without switching out your mousepad.

These skates are faster than the Arc’s but are also one of the thinnest skates so you will be able to feel a lot of the texture from the mousepad which can be good for people that like having that feeling of feedback.

Even though they are faster than the other skates they still have have some pretty decent stopping power.

For these skates there is a V1 and a V2 with the V2 having better adhesive but some people reporting that the V2 feel way slower than the V1’s.

Can highly recommend these skates for games that involve a ton of tracking such as apex or overwatch.

Tiger Yanzi

These are a fairly new skate that aren’t as popular or not as talked about but are super solid for all you glass pad enjoyers.

These skates are more suited for glass pads due to the hardness of them and are a great alternative to the Xraypad Obsidian skates.

For glass they are one of the faster skates and also pretty quiet as well. Unlike the Obsidian skates that still have a hint of control to them, the Yanzi skates are just pure speed.

While these are made of a harder material when compared to the Ice and Arc’s they still wear down faster when compared to the other hardened PTFE skates.

ESPTIGER provides a ton of options that pretty much fits into everyone's wants and needs from a high quality skate for their mouse. Whether you want a skate that is faster or slower, ESPTIGER has you covered.
