I am a proud mouse user!

Pros of using a mouse:

Very good, and texture full agile movement, very well used in fast time controls. I give all the credit to my mouse, for my bullet-rating. It can be used in any time control pretty much, and is very well setting for a competitive, and fast chess player!  

Cons of a trackpad:

Look, don't tell me that I have no experience with a trackpad. Believe it or not, I actually used to use a trackpad, until I figured that a mouse was way better. The trackpad can easily burn your figures, and quick! Not to mention, you can 100% not move as fast.

Honestly, it's pretty much based on personal experience and preference, I'm just giving my bold opinion.

Touch screen ftw. I just use a stylus for precision and no misclicks.

Touch screen? You'll break your screen when playing bullet.

I don't have to rush normally, I normally end up with 20-30 seconds on the clock in 1-0

Pros play with a ps4 controller using antimicro to map analog to the mouse and L2/R2 to mouse clicks, using the middle trackpad for precision

I prefer mouse but I haven't used one in a very long time. But I don't mouse slip as much! 

JackRoach

Neither. I prefer just to stare at the game while my time ticks down.

Touch-screen, for me.
