Legion Go + Steam Controller = EPIC!!!!! 😆

That random company is called Scuf who were first to put back paddles on controllers back in the Xbox 360 days, it has been owned by Corsair since 2019, Valve was sued in 2021 and lost $4 million.

Does anyone with paddles actually use them in rocket league?

I had steam controllers back in 2015 and I used to bind my boost to the button on the back. Then they discontinued them and mine broke after 4 years..... But after 3000 hours, I couln't switch back to having no boost on my back button, and other controllers were terrible compared to the Steam one. I
