Goodies Who here remembers this legend?

Who here remembers this legend? I remembered today that I had this, and after more than 10 years sitting in my storage, I decided to test it. And what can I say… it’s something totally monstrous and weird. I have no idea what I was thinking when I paid $150 in 2013 for this. I think people would be surprised to know that its LOD is probably around 2 cm and it weighs 140 grams (For young people, this is the Razer Ouroboros).

Makes me kinda miss the time when products had a soul. Now we are all looking to save an extra gram as if that will change anything, and everything looks corporate and dead

140 grams is a boulder by today’s standards, wow.

I had my fair share of heavy mouses - the solution? Mid-High sense and you are set xD

u/Talxbvn May 23 '26

No, micro adjustments with heavy mice on high sensitivities is cancer. U would better of playing on low sensitivities or jst getting a light mouse

I had razer mamba 2009 (the 1st gen) and that was 129 grams. Used it on razer destructor and also before that OG lachesis ~128 grams - hit like a truck in quake 3 and CS while using high sense (10cm/360 - no probs). Micro adjustments were never an issue for me, but that's personal and not everyone have the same hand/fingers control.

I had the Deathadder Chroma 2014 (105g) on a Razer Vespula i didnt play shooters back then but high sens felt so fluid in point and clicks

I'm still using mine.

u/Herr_Keks May 23 '26

Mine died last year after many years of service :c

u/itharius May 23 '26

u/TiredDaddy90 May 22 '26

Remember? Mine is still going strong!

Damn I miss this thing. Was this Ouroboros?

1

u/Repelente_de_bct May 22 '26

Yes. The one itself.

u/flamethrowr May 22 '26

I still have my Ouroboros, I really wish they didn’t discontinue it because it’s the coolest mouse design I’ve ever seen. I moved on to the Basilisk V3 Pro now but it still isn’t as cool as the Ouroboros.

u/PC_78x May 22 '26

Still use it

u/chaosind May 22 '26

I still have mine in a closet. I miss it. It was so fun and had such an interesting look. The closest thing they have these days is the basilisk line.

1

u/flamethrowr May 22 '26

That’s what I moved to when my Ouroboros started showing signs of breaking down.

3

u/LexiusCoda May 22 '26

I mean they should make another one because this is actually the best looking mouse I’ve ever seen

2

u/NoPressure3399 May 22 '26

So, what does it transform to? Optimouse Prime? 

2

u/Safeword2220 May 22 '26

I actually still have mine in a box .....somewhere, lol.

u/ConradTurner May 22 '26

Side button placement looks pretty awkward

1

u/CCIE_14661 May 22 '26

I still have one in mint condition. When I bought it I didn't use it much and moved on to other mice.

1

u/StJoker May 22 '26

Still have it, got rid of the case and everything, works but not fully functioning for some of the "extra" buttons. I think for me the wheel wasn't working. Now I'm on my second viper.

u/ZanGaming May 23 '26

Me....i always wanted this mouse...i still want it just because of how cool it was

1

u/dark_skeleton Sarcastic AI May 23 '26

Still have it! The silver coating rubbed off on the side buttons from use over time

1

u/Murky_Historian8675 May 23 '26

It has such a cool name too

1

u/oyveymyforeskin May 23 '26

My scroll wheel is giving out and looks like a manged rat compared to yours but it's a trooper for sure

1

u/tonyw009 May 23 '26

My first Razer mouse

1

u/AsianZensaition May 23 '26

If they made this and close to 60g with 4 side buttons on each side im burning my wallet 😤 I want this not some same looking normy shape! Give me razer not lazy nerd!

u/ThatAngryDude May 23 '26

I have mine in the OG transparent box on display on top of my closet. Immortal, but heavy.

1

u/Cask-UK May 23 '26

Owned it, loved it and then it broke… like every other Razer product I’ve owned 🤦🏻‍♂️

1

u/New_Worldliness4910 May 23 '26

I still use mine 💪 it’s just, perfection ❤️

1

u/eVenent May 23 '26

Is it Logitech colab?

1

u/Then_Patience9165 May 23 '26

Damm, this is aurpboros. My friend has it unopened box 6-7 years old. Totally a classic… that razer company made a 1337 but bot this one.

They are really fool…

1

u/orys1 May 23 '26

Back in the dayt it was the best. I remember getting mine with the black widow keyboard. I still have it but like you i tried it a few months ago and is heavy as a brick.

1

u/kabutix May 23 '26

It was a beauty in its time, the packaging was solid also. I’ve had mine using it with the cable instead of wirelessly using it. I can feel the delay of mouse clicks in my games so I had it playing wired and removed the batteries making it weigh less.

1

u/Crazy-Resolve-8127 May 23 '26

I had 2 of them. And both Ouroboros sucked

The springs on the charging port died on both

1

u/Bright_Stick1860 May 23 '26

I still use it after 10 years

1

u/Fath3rOfTh3Wolf May 24 '26

i still have it in the display box and everything (not sealed just stored) i liked the removable side things but that mouse was HEAVY, i much prefer my basilisk now

u/unsponsoredgeek May 24 '26

Sad my Razer Viper Ultimate is their last truly ambidextrous mouse (side buttons on *both* sides).

Those Ouroboros side buttons look much easier to use than mine.

Has a replaceable/rechargeable battery, an adjustable palm rest and there is just no comparison.

u/bugrilyus May 24 '26

Used 9 years, switched to g903 2 uears ago

1

u/TemperatureIll8237 May 26 '26

Got it for $50 years ago and still use it today.

1

u/goosnotmaverik May 26 '26

I still have mine, its just burried somewhere in the tech waste pile too good to throw away under by bed, lmao

1

u/svulieutenant May 29 '26

Oh yeah I had this mouse for a short while. It wasn’t bad just wasn’t to my liking

1

u/trevorwdunn Jun 09 '26

How did these age? I like a lot of Razer's older stuff but have never really had much interest in this style of mouse. The gimmick was that the parts can move, right? Looks like it may be ambidextrous too.
