Whether it be tablet, playing with a pen, or maybe a finger, a mouse, with or without a keypad, we all have our own 'style' and different aches at the end of the day.

is a left-handed mouse user. (But still uses a right-handed configuration. Left click is primary.)
does not shift his forearm at all during play. It's all in the wrist.
doesn't use alt-click at all.
doesn't have a mousepad, but should get one.

How do you play osu!?

I play Osu! with this mouse...



.. and this mouse mat.



I can play Osu! with both hands since I'm ambidexterous, however, I prefer to play Osu! with my right hand since I'm slightly faster with my right hand. I don't use the keyboard for any clicking, I use only my index finger for clicking on the left mouse button when playing.

I have a Wacom graphics tablet, but I don't use it for playing Osu. I play Osu! with a mouse because I want to improve my mouse control, speed and accuracy. After I'm satisfied with my mouse ability with Osu, I will move onto other input devices such as graphics tablet, trackball, wiimote, etc. :)

Dell BT mouse and paper-thin no-slip round mousepad. Round because my hand drifts up and I don't really need the diagonal move space.

Microsoft Laser Mouse 8000 + Razer Destructor. I click with the mouse buttons, makes it easier to move the cursor properly.

The Compaq mouse which I think came with the computer, and then got switched out with a new laser mouse, before finally dad got the laptop and found only the laser would work with it. So now I have a boring old regular mouse. On desk. No mouse pad, no paper, just flat out on the desk.

Hitting, normally usually use the V key primarily, and often alternate between V and C. I will occasionally use the edge of my thumb on the space key, or just use the space specifically, I find I do better with regular beats that way. A recent upgrade (as in, last night) is a small piece of tape on the V key so that I switch quickly between using the spacing mainly back to V and C, without having to worry about my fingers being on the wrong keys (and so I can alternate between V and C after switching without realizing that my fingers are on the wrong keys).

Mouser, only left clickan for most songs(even maps with fast stacks) occassionally left/right click when left clicking is too tedious or simply not fast enough.(Agony[insane] is about the fastest song I can left click only.)

Retardedly hgih sensitivity. Mouse never moves more than around 1.5cm in any direction while playing.

Retardedly fast spinnar speedz.

I play with a vanilla mouse. My mousepad is a map of the world.

I'm pretty kawaii, bro.

I use a ball mouse or mechanical mouse, whatever you want to call it. It's old but new enough to have a scroll wheel. I have to clean it frequently though or it will stop moving randomly. It's also very small, which is great because I have small hands :(

I tried using a new optical mouse and it made me go from 300 rpm to 350-360 when spinning. It's sensitivity sucks though and it's too much trouble to get it the same as what I have now.

I use a tablet, it's pretty cheap but gets the job done. I think I'm going to get mobbed by all the mouse users in this thread now. D:
I actually don't give a damn about how people play osu! :)

I play Z/X Style, with a mouse.
If I had a Tablet, I would play more easily.

Well, I play Windowed, 800x600, with 2.1x Mouse Sensivity.
