Razer, the world's leading high-end precision gaming brand, is proud to announce that the Razer Goliathus has been redesigned and reinforced to ensure your soft mouse mat swiping experience is more hardcore than ever before.

Maintaining the same well-loved, speed-enhancing and control-precise features, the redesigned Razer Goliathus mouse mat delivers maximum performance to propel you to gaming stardom. Now imbued with a dense, anti-fraying and long-lasting stitched frame, your mouse mat stays sharp for consistent tournament ownage.



"The only thing wearing down should be your enemy," said Robert "RazerGuy" Krakoff, President Razer USA. "The Razer Goliathus is our pride and joy when it comes to soft mats, designed with professional gaming-validated weaves for an exceptional mouse swiping experience. Now with anti-fray edges, you can go forth and frag even harder, worry-free."

About the Razer Goliathus Control Edition Mouse Mat
The Razer Goliathus Control Edition gaming-grade mouse mat takes your mouse's superb precision up a notch by having it matched with the mat's specially textured weave capable of registering even the smallest of movements.

About the Razer Goliathus Speed Edition Mouse Mat:
Fast and furious would be an apt description of the Razer Goliathus Speed Edition mouse mat that has a slick, ultra-smooth weave to let your mouse swiping reach maximum acceleration and responsiveness, while keeping control firmly in your hands.

Accelerate your game faster and harder without worry, knowing that the anti-fraying stitched frame keeps the edges lasting longer.

Have the non Anti-Fray version and I love it!

Mine is just a month old but its still in excellent condition can't complain!

And I fancy myself a heavy gamer!

I'm just sliding my mouse left and right, Forwards and Backwards. I'm not slamming the mouse or moving the mouse pad to cause any damage or fraying.

I have been told that the speed edition is actually less slippery then the control, is this true?

I was about to buy both just to see but seeing as this change is coming I think I will wait for new stock (its a replacement, not a new edition?). My crappy no no name hard maps has worn the feet of my g5 and mx518(?) also its texture is inconsistent

Me too thats why i solved the issue 100% by getting a glass one :). Like there mice got sick of buying them and having to buy a new one just after a year.

Really enjoy my Goliathus, but I'd have a hard time shelling out another $25 for stitched edges... Maybe I'll pick up a control model to compliment the speed one I'm using now.
