SCUF VALOR PRO Wired Performance Xbox Controller Customizable Back Paddles Instant Triggers Hall Effect Thumbsticks Audio Controls Xbox

If you like to play competitive FPS like COD Ranked play, consider this review! I Had my eye on a scuf since last year. However I Bought the scuf pro and wasn’t too happy with it due to getting stick drift within the first 3 weeks of having it so I returned it. Saw this controller with anti drift sticks, 4 paddles, & click triggers for less than $110. Was a bit timid but thought “hey I could get it and if it sucks I’ll return it”. I was playing on an elite 2 prior however stick drift, input delay & everything was kicking my tail. FIRST THOUGHTS : When I got the controller, I loved how small it was. It was very comfy, click triggers was amazing, the contour bumpers was great, 2 rear paddles are a bit stiff however the other 2 in front of the main, are mouse click paddles. The soft touch front was very comfy. Overall, controller felt great. GAMING EXPERIENCE REVIEW : When I plugged it in, it took an hour to adjust from the elite to the scuf. Make sure you fix your deadzones and find your sweet spot. I shoot and aim with my LB & RB adjusted everything. LET ME TELL YOU!! I FELT A DIFFERENCE!! The way I shot, the way I moved, I felt FASTER!! I was amazed at how responsive everything was. I’m on xbox, so I was very shocked. That day I gained 30 SR (won 10 games on a hard stuck plat and hit diamond). I felt faster, quicker, & more confident If you’re looking to getting a competitive controller, I highly recommend this! Including if you don’t play claw, buttons are very nice and everything is great Read more

I actually REALLY like this controller. I've been on xbox elite series, initially the first, then series two. Modded the joysticks on a series 2 and those were pretty great as well after the swap. Then I saw these leading up to Black Friday, wired or wireless doesn't bother me much at all, so the significant reduction in cost for the wired version sold me. Everything I wanted. great joysticks, I like the color scheme now but also very easily changed if wanted. Just a solid controller. Very good for the cost. Give it a shot, amazon has excellent customer service and return procedure, you'll know in an hour or so if you like the feel of using it in game. Read more

As a try-hard enjoyer of movement based FPS like WH40K Darktide, I wear out an average of one controller per year. My previous controller was a Power A, which was very nice, but the covering wore off of the non-replacable sticks. I also noticed that my hands would hurt after extended gaming sessions, and I would have to take breaks of several days from certain games to recover. The shape and position of the back buttons on the Valor Pro took some time to adjust to, but now that I'm used to it, they feel completely natural and my hands feel great after gaming all day. The build quality is nice too. It reminds me of the Super NES era hardware and accessories. The button presets are also quick and easy to program and select. For a little over a hundred bucks, this sits right in the sweet spot of being nice enough to actually last and perform well while also not being so expensive that it'll be painful to replace when inevitably wears out down the line. Pretty happy with this one so far. Read more

Bought this as a replacement for an Xbox Elite Series 2 controller because the Xbox controller was doing that crap where the rubber fitting was expanding and not fitting flush with the rest of the controller. This looked like a suitable replacement. It's not. Worked alright at first, but the paddles were not bound to the buttons I wanted out of the box. I downloaded the most recent drivers from the website, as well as the software that should have allowed me to rebind the paddles to whatever I want. The software doesnt work. I try to pull up the profiles page so that I can adjust the bindings and the page just hangs there indefinitely until I press any other button to leave that page. If you only need the face buttons, just is still too expensive. I bought this specifically for the paddles, and not only can I not change the paddle bindings, but one of the paddles are already showing signs of unresponsiveness, making this more or less an extra expensive paper weight.

It's a good controller but has issues. On the good side, the responsiveness is very sensitive. You might find you're doing things you don't mean to, but I like the sensitivity. So far I've had it 4 months,and it is holding up well. On the bad side, if I leave my headset plugged in, the sound crackles until I unplug it and plug back in. Sometimes on start up the controller shuts off, and I have to press the jewel to get it to turn on. But then it's good to go. Also there's just too many volume controls for the headset. One volume wheel is for chat, the other is for game sound.... All those settings are in the Xbox, but sometimes the settings change in the controller and I have to spin both knobs to get sound where I want it. Not sure if mine is defective, but I think next SCUF I get won't have the buttons underneath or the volume controls. Read more

Awesome controller 🎮! The best for Xbox bar none. The adjustable triggers, hidden buttons and overall feel of it is great. Happy customer! Read more

I have big hands and this controller is very nice for my hands to wrap around. I hate programming a controller to use on my Xbox. This is so easy to set up and i spend more time playing the game. I am a FPS and the trigger stops are very nice. The motion of the thumb stick is very smooth and my aim is better. Rubber grips are the best! This controller is easy to set up and it is a Pro controller. I purchased an X box Elite 2 controller at the same time to test them out. I am returning the Xbox Elite. 2 controller. I also returned a Razer and a Nacon Revolution x pro urban camp controller. Read more
