How do you hold your mouse while you play? It's a simple question yet determines your style of play. As for myself, I use palm since I used to play FPS a lot, so I had a mouse suited for that purpose that doesn't fit for claw, so I stuck with it. How about you?

Here's the difference for those who don't know

^this

I'll still vote for Claw because when I'm tired with my fingertip grip (which occurs quite often sadly), I switch to the claw one. Either that or I just stop playing.

Fingertip grip here. Much less tiring on your arm to move around the mouse, and more precision with smaller movements than what your arm can produce.

I hold my mouse with my palm, since i don't see how claw could be comfortable. But i guess you get used to it?

I use fingertip/claw. They're basically the same thing, I think claw means your fingers are bent more resembling a claw.

Claw grip ~~master race~~.

I lowered my sensibility from 1.5 to 1.11, it's far more comfortable. I can still move from corner to corner, but I used to grip with way too much strength...
Now I just hold the mouse gently, and it flies trough circles
