The best shooter player in the world has introduced a mouse in collaboration with Finalmouse. It was completely sold out within a few hours.
Tyson TenZ” Ngo is considered one of the best shooter players in the world. He regularly demonstrates his skills with strong performances. For example, he reached the highest rank in Valorant in just 30 hours. He is still active there, playing for the team Sentinels.
Now he has introduced a gaming mouse together with a manufacturer. It was sold out within hours. Such collaborations between manufacturers and professionals are not unusual.
The player’s gaming mouse deal is said to be the “biggest sale for an active esports player of all time”
What kind of mouse is it? The manufacturer Finalmouse developed a gaming mouse in collaboration with the Valorant pro. They introduced the Starlight Pro on July 17 on the official website. The mouse is specifically aimed at players who want to play shooters:
- The mouse weighs between 42 – 47 grams.
- It features a proprietary sensor with a DPI of 20,000.
- The mouse is wireless and uses its own wireless standard.
- However, the device can also be used via cable.
- The manufacturer charges $189.99, or about €188.00, for the gaming mouse.
Many users expect a technical standard and no longer want to play modern shooters with outdated gaming mice.
How many mice were sold? About 40,000 units of the new Starlight Pro were available and were sold out within a few hours. All 40,000 units were sold at a price of $189.99 per mouse. According to a press release from Prodigy Agency, which represents TenZ, this is “the biggest sale for an active esports player of all time” (via dexerto.com).
The manufacturer reportedly earned more than 7 million euros from the sale of the mouse. A significant portion of the profits goes directly to the shooter player TenZ. Neither the manufacturer nor its press agency disclosed how much.
Is this surprising? Not necessarily. Finalmouse is known for high-quality equipment, and mice are often sold out shortly after their introduction. The Starlight Pro from TenZ was no different.
Cooperations between stars and manufacturers are not unusual
Manufacturers regularly partner with various top players or streamers to create interesting products for fans or customers. A well-known example is the collaboration between Logitech and professional player Michael “Shroud” Grzesiek. Together, they developed the Shroud G303. You can currently buy this mouse for around 100 euros on Amazon:

But there are also other examples. For instance, the famous streamer PewDiePie collaborated with a manufacturer to create a keyboard. A YouTuber later tested this “best keyboard.” You can read his impressions and whether spending 200 euros on the keyboard was worth it in the following article:
