The recently concluded 2023 Asian Games held in Hangzhou, China saw esports as an official category for the first time in history. It was one of the most popular events as it was the only competition to use the lottery system for tickets due to high demand.
The esports events featured titles such as League of Legends, DOTA 2, Arena of Valor (aka Honor of Kings, PUBG Mobile, EA FC 24, Street Fighter V and Dream Three Kingdoms 2. Unfortunately, not for the lack of effort and heart, our esports heroes couldn’t place higher than ninth.
Our Pinoy esports athletes could use better equipment. And Logitech can help address that with the release of the Logitech G PRO X TKL LIGHTSPEED Gaming Keyboard and the Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 Gaming Mouse.
The mouse and keyboard complete the pro gamers’ trifecta with the Logitech G PRO X 2 LIGHTSPEED Gaming Headset, which was rolled out earlier this year. The trio of products completes the PRO Series line which offers impressive PC performance across peripherals.
Logitech G, a leading innovator of gaming technology and gear, has been working with numerous professional esports athletes to create the next generation of PRO Series gear.
“The exciting new PRO Series portfolio represents a pure and uncompromised product collection, designed for maximum performance of elite esports professionals and the most competitive gamers playing at the peak of potential” stated Brent Barry, Head of Esports and PRO Series at Logitech G.
“These products exemplify our commitment to pushing the limits of performance, speed, and reliability, which is only made possible through our multi-year, collaborative design process with professional esports athletes. Our elite athlete partners help design, develop, and test our products, ensuring they deliver the highest level of performance, quality, and cutting-edge Innovation,” he added.
For his part, Counter-Strike superstar Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev of NAVI, said, “The mouse and keyboard are the most important part of PC Gaming. If my mouse doesn’t feel like an extension of my hand, I won’t be able to play well. The Superlight 2 feels weightless and I don’t have to think about it. The Superlight 2 is like the first Superlight but better. And with its compact design and its trusted lightspeed wireless technologies, the Pro X TKL is perfect if you want a clean setup. They are both must-haves if your goal is to win!”
The Logitech G PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 Gaming Mouse combines precision, performance, and reliability, making it an indispensable advantage for elite-level gaming.
It features LIGHTFORCE Hybrid Switches which is a new hybrid optical-mechanical switch technology that combines speed and reliability performance while providing the crisp and mechanical feel that esports pros love.
The sensor has also been upgraded to the brand new HERO 2 Sensor with tracking at over 500 inches per second and up to 32,000 DPI. Its unique dual array design increases working range and maintains tracking performance, even when lifting or tilting the mouse.
The new mouse also retains the shape and geometry of its predecessor while remaining lightweight at 60 grams due to input from pro gamers.
Additional features include PRO-grade technology, USB-C, 95-hour battery life, POWERPLAY compatibility, larger array size, and a best-in-class 25-kilohertz maximum frame rate. Its zero-additive PTFE mouse feet deliver a smooth glide for seamless reactivity to any game.
Much like the rest of the PRO Series lineup, the new Logitech G PRO X TKL Wireless Gaming Keyboard was also designed with the pros in mind, to optimize performance at the highest level of competitive play.
The new keyboard is equipped with Logitech G’s LIGHTSPEED wireless technology for trusted performance and reliability. In addition to the LIGHTSPEED dongle, players can connect via Bluetooth or the included USB-C to USB-A cable.
Its tenkeyless form factor features programmable keys, dedicated media controls, a volume roller and RGB lighting with LIGHTSYNC coupled with dual shot PBT keycaps that allow the line to shine through.
The PRO X TKL’s standard layout allows for third-party keycap compatibility, and additional media keys create quick access while grinding, a detail many pro players requested. Plus, being “tenkeyless” means more room for mouse movement, an important advantage for competitive players.
The keyboard also includes a carrying case which is ideal for any sort of traveling, especially for pros who hop around various countries throughout the year to compete in tournaments. Players also have the option to choose between Tactile Switches (GX Brown), Linear Switches (GX Red), or Clicky Switches (GX Blue).
For the pros, every minute detail can mean the difference between victory and defeat. In the new PRO Series products, DPI, sensitivity, report rate, surface, game settings, and more are all interconnected.
With G HUB updates and Onboard Memory Management software (OMM), players now have even more control and configuration capabilities:
● New sensitivity UI in G HUB and OMM for configuring DPI with full presets, separate X/Y axis controls, and more.
● HERO 2 sensor that can copy settings from one mouse to the other to make sure you get the exact DPI from your old mouse.
● Programmable F keys as G keys on the PRO X 2 Keyboard to enable control of your whole desktop. Change mouse DPI preset, execute multibuy macros, combine spells and abilities, and even control your stream through powerful plugins, including those from Streamlabs.

In addition to creating the world’s highest-performing gear, Logitech is equally committed to creating a more equitable and climate-positive world by actively reducing our carbon impact.
