So this Steam summer event they had this alien invasion thing going on and I was going ham mashing the clicking on both left and right on my mouse, soon after that the left click started doing double clicks for any click and every click so I switched and have become used to dominant right click but now the shit is doing the same thing. I regret mashing my mouse, is there any way to repair the crap or am i SOL and need to buy a new mouse?

If you can solder you can just replace the microswitches. Deathadder (and a lot of other mice) use omron D2FC-F-7N.

If you can't, then you can replace the metal plate with one from a new switch

Can also just try some switch cleaner, sometimes give them some more life, but most of the time it's time for a new microswitch/plate swap.
Thanks, will look into this. Much appreciation!
