Shape
The Basilisk V3 Pro retains the right-handed ergonomic shape of its predecessors. While very similar to the Logitech G502 overall, the Basilisk V3 Pro does without the additional buttons next to the left main button, resulting in the front being a bit more narrow. Otherwise, the two shapes are nearly identical, including the hump curvature, general dimensions, and relative geometry. Much like on the G502, the right main button sits notably lower than the left one towards the front, the back is rounded and only mildly tapered, and the right side has barely any curvature. Overall, a tried and tested shape that works well in practice.
As for grip styles, I'd say the Basilisk V3 Pro is generally suited for palm and claw grip. It is a large mouse with a moderately pronounced hump, which makes it more suitable for medium to large hands. For reference, my hands are 19 cm long and 10 cm wide, and I found the Basilisk V3 Pro perfectly comfortable in claw grip.
