Artisan FX Hayate Otsu V2 - Ninja Black

HAYATE OTSU V2: Artisan’s Flagship for Precision and Control

The HAYATE OTSU V2 is a high-end evolution of the original ARTISAN series, designed for users who demand exceptional glide stability and pinpoint accuracy.

Compared to the Hien, it offers reduced glide inconsistency and minimal variation between vertical and horizontal movement, providing a more uniform and reliable tracking experience.

What’s New in V2

  • Electrostatic Control: A new feature significantly reduces static charge on the surface, eliminating any stickiness during use.

  • Cleaner Performance: The surface now resists dust and dirt more effectively, ensuring long-term consistency.

  • Refined Texture: The updated weave pattern delivers even smoother gliding and greater precision than the previous model.

  • Improved Usability: While maintaining the familiar feel of the original, overall ease of use has been enhanced.


Description direct from Artisan:

Fast initial movement and stable mouse movement with parallel movement sensation. And easy to stop. A high-end product boasting well-balanced overall performance.

| Comprehensive performance

ARTISAN's high-end product that boasts of comprehensive performance.

| Nimble sliding

Fast initial movement. Not like on ice, but controllable fast sliding.

| Feel of the touch

The feel of the sliding surface feels slightly pear-shaped

| Small difference in vertical and horizontal sliding

The difference in the feel of vertical and horizontal sliding is small compared to Fei Yan.

| Much less electrification of the sliding surface.

By reducing the electrostatic charge on the sliding surface, the sticking feeling of the mouse is reduced. Also, the prevention of dust adhesion is greatly improved.

    With seeing this pad online

    "With seeing this pad online alot being told its a "control pad" I think it better to say its a balance pad, While the static friction is a little slower however the dynamic is very nice so i think its better said to be a balance pad. I have seen the orange is a little faster than the black so that might be a factor however this pad is solid as an all rounder, The only things that people might not like would be how course/rough the texture of the pad is on your arm. The get around would be a sleeve however sleeves don't really work on this either so if you don't might a rougher feeling pad this is nice :D"

    I’ve used glass pads and

    "I’ve used glass pads and many cloth pads over the years, and everyone has always told me how good Artisan pads are and that I should try one. I finally succumbed to peer pressure, and it ended up being one of the best decisions I’ve made. The stitching and fabric are amazing, and the Raiden is almost silky to the touch. Of the two I’ve tried, I’d recommend the Raiden for games that rely heavily on reactive tracking and have lengthy TTKs, while the Zero is better suited to games requiring precision tracking, clicking, and quick target switching thanks to the extra stopping power. Thank you so much, Ausmodshop! As always, exceptional service and incredibly quick delivery."

    "Key83 is a great balanced pad with a lower dynamic and far lower static friction compared to a Zero. Particularly the Mid hardness is prefect for tracking heavy games with enough stiffness that you can press into the pad for some control. As my first mid pad, I greatly miss the wider range of speed available with a softer pad."

    I am very happy with

    "I am very happy with this pad. Perfect size for me as I am a low send user but don’t like to use full desk pads, the glide is amazing and smooth in both the x and g axis because of the honeycomb weave. Definitely my endgame mousepad"

    — cameron m. (5/5)

    It was a lot faster

    "It was a lot faster than i expected in a good way, the way it glides in comparison to other mouse pads is phenomenal. I would heavily recommend this pad to someone who is looking for a nice middle line between glass and the friction of a cloth pad. Very happy with it."

    "Fast delivery and in perfect condition, definitely the greatest value for domestic delivery. The mouse pad itself is a perfect middle ground between softness and speed. Genuinely happy with the purchase."

    "Delighted with the service, packaging, presentation and delivery. The Artisan Raiden Mid exceeded my expectations, I cannot recommend it enough. In this short amount of time I have experienced my game play improve. I will defiantly be purchasing from Artisan again and from Ausmodshop."

    "Absolutely fantastic mouse pad. The Artisan FX Hayate Otsu V2 lives up to all the hype. The glide is incredibly smooth while still providing excellent stopping power, making it perfect for both fast flicks and precise tracking in FPS games. The build quality is outstanding, the stitching is flawless, and it lays completely flat straight out of the box. It has noticeably improved the consistency of my aim and feels premium in every way."
