We interrupt your regularly scheduled broadcasting with an important announcement. Tonight at around 7:30 PM UTC myself and Samsai will face off in a livestream. We will see if a Steam Controller can beat a mouse and keyboard.
Samsai will be sticking to his guns with the mouse and keyboard, while I will be attempting not to embarrass myself with the Steam Controller.
You will be able to watch this momentous event on my livestream channel here.

I was just playing L4D with a controller. It was doable, up until the finale, then I had to switch to K&M. My overall accuracy was 30%. It's usually 60-70%. :(
I think I was improving towards the end. It takes a bit of getting used to holding your finger still and using the gyro for precision aiming.

Does Samsai have a Steam Controller as well?
For the sake of comparison it would be great if you can swap places after a while in order to disambiguate whether the Steam Controller is better/worse than the mouse+keyboard or just one of you is plainly better than the other :P

Less than three weeks of experience versus a lifetime? Sure, this will be a fair comparison.

I just received the controller last friday. It works, but you need practice, I didn't achieve be as fast as with keyboard+mouse, but I'm sure it can be done with practice.
(writing is another thing, it's like writing with 2 fingers).

Oh, come on - that's just click bait. Stupid people might watch and think: "And that's why the Steam Controller sucks".
