I know you have the preference for wired, but the Logitech MX master has been one of my favourite large mice and the wireless connection seemed pretty lag free. I'm currently using a Corsair wireless mouse, but I do not recommend.

Had a very similar problem when my ironclaw died. I went thru probably 5-6 different mouses/mice/meece before discovering the Keychron M6. Very similar feature set to the Logitech MX, but a slightly different shape and texture that I find suits my hand better. DPI switch is on the underside by default but can be remapped to any button. It's wireless, but there's no reason you can't just leave it plugged in.
EDIT: Also, I found this thing super useful for size/shape comparison during my hunt.
I miss my old RAT7 from... what was it.. Mad Catz?
Same. I had two. They both started tracking weird after a few months. I've never had that issue with another mouse. Aside from that, the physical build of the mouse was the coolest design.
The Logitech vertical mouse is great for my big hand.
Been pretty happy with my glorious gaming i2 big enough for my hand plenty of utility and nice and light-weight. Lightweight is one of those things you dismiss until you experience it, it's game changing in my opinion.
Had to set up profiles initially on win10, for lack of Linux software support, but the changes stay on the device memory, so works fine in Linux afterwards
Found the company after deep diving switches, difference between chinese and japanese OMROM and digging for optical switches for mice. The i2 isn't that but they use high quality switches that dont die easily like my Logitech ones did.
I respect them for their openness towards repair and their mission statement I remember something about making the mouse they wanted themselves, but couldn't find a link to it.
IMO either the Logitech G502 or Razer Basilisk V3 or Ultimate.
I have the G502 Spectrum and the Basilisk Ultimate and the feel in hand is almost identical, there are some notable differences though.
The G502 has a small lip around the sides of the LMB and RMB where you can rest your ring finger, Basilisk does not and you have to place your ring finger on the side.
The G502 has free scroll function on the wheel, the Basilisk can adjust resistance of the scroll wheel.
The Basilisk can swap the side button for thumb for a paddle, this is imo much better than the side thumb button on the G502.
The wireless G502 has a mouse pad that charges the mouse wirelessly but you're stuck to using that mouse pad if you go this path. The Basilisk uses a charging dock with contact pins where you place your mouse to charge roughly once a week.
The software sucks for both but Razer software sucks more. In my case I've configured the mouse to save settings on the on-board memory then got rid of the software for both. On Razer HW you can't save the RGB profiles on the on-board memory but you can use OpenRGB instead of their stupid software.
Basilisk uses optical switches so there is basically no risk of the mouse starting to double click or similar issues to what Logitech mouses had for a long time. My G502 was flawless after 6y of use though.
roast with rosemary at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. serve with jalapeño cornbread.
