Are there any good mice for butterfly and drag clicking for telly bridging that you can still get new?

Sorry if its a repetitive question here. I've been recently motivated to finally get good in 1.8 pvp and I kind of don't know where to start. Either im on some cracked server where every player is a bot or I join actual pvp servers where it's impossible for me to improve + I get harassed. It would be nice if someone could help me start out fresh as my 1.8 knowledge might be a little outdated (I know wtap and thats really it).
