If you don't use a mouse than you don't belong here.

Which style of mouse grip do you guys use. I use the claw grip style.

Advantages and Disadvantages of grip style

You forgot the third one D:
My style would be considered as a fingertip grip

맵퍼는 참기름과도 같아서 짜내면 짜낼수록 더 빨리 만든다죠

The fingertip style is really the claw grip, not much different. Also i couldn't find a picture that precisely demonstrated it

Whatever works best at the time.

I hold the mouse around the middle, right below the scroll wheel, when playing osu!.

I need to stay on the scroll wheel if I'm playing mouse-only, which is why I can't play mouse-only well. xD

nope they are different:
fingertip uses purely fingertips only touching the mouse (an elevated palm).
claw uses the fingertips with the bottom of the palm to support the mouse.

i personally switch between fingertip and claw. fingertip for general use, and claw for extra precision when moving slowly.

My palm is on the mouse, but there's a small gap between my fingers and the button, so only my fingertips touch it.

I move my mouse through force of will.

Isn't cool enough to have a signature.

I do fingertips most of the time in Osu! But if I'm really stretching from the seat I'll use claw.

I use the palm grip, but I did try the claw grip a few days ago. It messed my spinning skills, so I reverted back the palm grip.
