GAMING SPECIAL

Roccat Tyon

This is one of the highest-performing wireless mice
I’ve ever used, and you’ll never need to recharge it
while on the road. If you travel a lot, toss one of these
in your bag for those hotel room gaming sessions.

Best MMO gaming mouse
Roccat Tyon
Price: £79 inc VAT from fave.co/2YOdl5X

The era of ‘the more buttons, the better’ has mostly
passed, what with MMOs having fallen somewhat out
of fashion. Instead, MOBAs like League of Legends
and Dota 2 – and their comparatively simpler but much
faster controls – dominate in popularity.
But maybe you’re planning to renew that World of
Warcraft subscription, or you just have a soft spot for
an unthinkable amount of mouse buttons. If that’s the
case, the Roccat Tyon will serve you well.
With 12 buttons and an analog paddle,
the Tyon is a beast. One of the thumb
buttons is actually a modifier key,
which Roccat calls ‘Easy-
Shift Technology’. Using it
effectively doubles the
number of buttons at
your beck and call,
and it’s an intuitive
approach that
balances out the key’s
