Some more Steam Deck specific flairs:

These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:
Full controls customizability with 1000's of options and, something very few controllers seem to have for some reason, digital+analog triggers.
Plus it helped normalize paddles.
Steam controller is amazing and I'd love a gen 2 that matches my steam deck layout.
It was killed by patent trolls because of those back paddles. I'm still kicking myself for not grabbing some when they were clearance for $5.
I'm glad I picked one up when they first came out though.
Wait what was killed? The steam controller?
Yeah, they stopped producing them due to the patent trolls. They ultimately won the case though, which is why the deck has back buttons.
You could only buy one during the sale, I already had one but grabbed another.
Apparently, I did too. Found a brand new one sealed in a box while moving.
