A headset can sound excellent and still end a session early if the fit keeps asking for attention. Long-session comfort comes from a few small details working together: even pressure, breathable contact points, a headband that stays put, and controls that do not force you to reach.
Look for even pressure
The earcups should sit around your ears instead of pressing directly on them. The headband should feel supportive without creating a hot spot at the top of your head. If you are constantly shifting the headset, the fit is giving you useful information.
Give heat somewhere to go
Over-ear cushions create a quiet seal, but they also hold warmth. Take a short break between matches, keep hair and glasses frames clear of the cushion edge, and store the headset somewhere dry rather than inside a closed bag.
Make the setup do less
Place the volume control where your hand naturally rests. Keep the cable or wireless receiver out of the path of your chair. The best comfort upgrade is often removing the tiny interruptions that make you notice your gear.
