Very pleased with the performance
"Very pleased with the performance and quality right out the box. Ausmodshop safely packaged my artisan and it was received with no dents or bends. The mousepad itself offers a great glide with my Viper v3 pro."

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.

"Very pleased with the performance and quality right out the box. Ausmodshop safely packaged my artisan and it was received with no dents or bends. The mousepad itself offers a great glide with my Viper v3 pro."
"Very good looking and balanced pad with a small focus towards speed. Moving from an Artisan Type-99, this pad feels alot more agile in that there is alot less initial friction and roughly a little less stopping power. The Artisan Zero Tenz Red Edition is a great pick especially if you're into more tracking focused games like Fortnite or Overwatch. Can never go wrong with a Zero."
"The Artisan FX Zero (I got Soft) completely lived up to the hype. The surface feels super consistent and smooth while still giving enough control for precise aiming in CS2. Quality is on another level compared to regular mousepads and the soft base feels really comfortable during long sessions."
"Ausmodshop has always been there for me. Whenever I need an item that wont ship to Hawaii or is out of stock everywhere, Ausmodshop has always had what I needed. For an American its not the fastest shipping, but you get what you pay for and with Ausmodshop every item is AUTHENTIC. You get guaranteed real glass pads, Artisan Pads, and Mouse Skates that are commonly counterfeit on other vendors (Looking at you Amazon). Additionally, their customer support is fast and reliable. The Artisan FX Hein pictured above arrived in Pristine Condition and 100% genuine Artisan. Thanks Ausmodshop!"
"Finally pulled the trigger on the Artisan Hien in Wine Red and I’m stoked I went through Ausmodshop. The pad itself is legendary for a reason—that hybrid surface is the perfect balance of speed and control, and the Wine Red looks even better in person than in the photos. As for the service, Ausmodshop killed it. Shipping was lightning fast (arrived in just a couple of days) and the packaging was super secure, so the pad laid perfectly flat right out of the box. It’s a massive relief to have a reliable local shop where you know you’re getting the real deal without the massive wait times or crazy international shipping costs. 10/10 experience, will definitely be grabbing my next upgrade from here."
"I've only had great experiences shopping with Ausmodshop. I've purchased a bunch of mouse skates, grips and mousepads and they shipped the next day without question and arrived and packed with care. I'm a happy customer, and I'll be continuing to shop here :) Thanks to the team!"
"im very happy with my recent purchase. the quality is insane and i have 0 complaints or regrets with the product."
"***END-GAME MOUSEPAD*** After trying so many pads all that eventually develop terrible slow pots or glass pads that eat your mouse feet away within a week, as someone thats constantly been searching for balance of control and speed while still preferring durability and longevity, I believe I've finally found my end game pad. This pad is perfect for those looking for a perfect balance of control for precision suited to tactical shooters and speed for tracking and micromotions. It's surface is rough and textured making it suited for durability and longevity and will not develop slowness anywhere close to as harsh as a regular cloth pad once it loses its coating after break in. Suited great with TIGER ICE V2 skates."
"Incredible mousepad, just don't make the same mistake as me and try use it flipped upside down the first time 😅"
"Very durable and high quality, every mousepad I have had in the past fades over a long time of rubbing my arm and mouse across the pad but this one is still like it just came out of the box. They package it in a big flat box so it stays perfectly straight and it doesn't move at all on the desk. Absolutely mint mousepad mate."
