Introduction

Razer has been around for quite a while now and most people probably know them for their high end gaming peripherals. It has been a year or two since Razer last put a new and innovating gaming surface on the market, I guess better late than never. This all new mouse mat is dubbed the Destructor.

The Destructor is a plastic mat with a natural rubber base glued on like many other mats on the market today. The new innovation that the Destructor mat features is what Razer calls "Fractal" technology.

The "Fractal" surface should enable laser and ordinary optical mice to make coherent tracking at higher speeds than on a traditional mat.

Specifications

• Designed with top professional gamers
• Razer Fractal textured surface for enhanced precision movements
• Optimized to improve optical and laser gaming grade mouse performance
• Ultra-wide size: 350 mm (Length) x 280 (Width) x 2.3 mm (Height)
• Non-slip rubber base for firm grip on smooth surfaces
• Includes a reinforced lightweight carrying case

The size and features of the Destructor are pretty common for a high end gaming grade mouse mat. The size is adequate for low to high sensitivity gamers and the height is minimal.

The Package

The Razer Destructor comes in a semi hard carrying bag. On the front and back of the package you can read all about how many "top professional" gamers endorse the mat. What it all boils down to, however, is that this mat has a new type of surface that makes it easier for both optical and laser mice to track movement.


According to the specifications listed by Razer, laser engines should be able to track acceleration 37% faster on the Destructor than on three other gaming grade mouse mats, and 25% when using standard optical sensor. These claims are of course hard to put to the test because Razer will not dish out what the benchmark mats were or how they tested. Size wise the Destructor is pretty normal measuring in at 350 mm length and 280 mm height.


The semi hard mouse mat case that comes with the Destructor is nice to have so that you do not end up ruining your pad going to and from LAN parties.


Besides the carrying case the bundle is pretty limited. No mouse feet or anything else, just the mat and a box.
