I have logitech G400 mouse and use fingertip Grip, the only problem is: Where my thumb is, there is like an indent which when my hands are sweaty (which is all the time i play whether im excited or not) my thumb begins to slip down the indent, I also as a result of bieng un able to grip strongly, cannot spin very well at all without losing my grip all together. Does anyone have cool tricks to make the grip less slippy? IDK double sided tape or something?

Pic of my mouse on the left side where it slides in is where my thumb is

My grip (as you can see, if I press hard on my grip (well not really that hard at all) by thumb slips forwards) so i need some sort of friction there

between thumb and mouse

or make contact with both the mouse and the desk at the same time

but a tissue has no friction
When I mean it slips I mean even when my hands arn't that sweaty

I did try it... it doesn't... the mouse already has rubber on the side so it has some grip already. adding the tissue only makes my thumb slide all over the place sorry

oh if it has rubber and your thumb still slides then it won't help

As ironic as this may sound, and this is a serious post - liquid soap actually makes my fingers grip so well on the Sensei RAW's slick surface that I can drag it with a single finger

In case you wanna try this, you will want to look specifically for soap that makes your akin adhere better to other skin (even notice how sometimes, during/after a bath, your hands adhere better to the rest of your body? That's probably the soap you're using). Try looking for ones specifically targeted to oily skins, since these are the ones that break, well, skin oils down with the best efficiency.

Disclaimer: this trick really works with me but I have zero clue why. Go try a bunch of liquid soaps and see which works best, if any

Get some tape that has a a coarse cover and put a strip along the side where your thumb lays.

Honey works too.

Or you could just glue your hand to your mouse.

Nice mouse pad might give you less friction , therefore may slip less. 'might'.
Grip it a little tighter.
