I don't think it is.

I like my eswap Pro. Excellent controller, and ver comfortable to use.

The back-paddle is the only reason I bought the steam controller, I went from bronze to diamond on Rocket League with these buttons ahah. But I'm too poor to buy the xbox elite pro2 controller

Quoting: DribbleondoIn this comment section: "It's corsair and the patent offices fault! Valve did nothing wrong!"

Patents like the one Corsair Gaming holds are legitimate because Paddles on a normal controller hadn't been done before, and it's pretty reasonable for them to patent that kind of design functionality. Patent fraud only really applies to stuff that is insanely generic, or impossible to make, neither of which qualifies this paddles patent. It's no different to patenting a specific controller design.

Valve are not your friends, please stop trying to blame literally everyone but the company doing the wrong.

Quoting: Luke_NukemI really dislike laptops with a numpad. It means the typing keyboard is shunted off to the left further off-center with the screen. It's damned uncomfortable after a period of time.

Otherwise I'd be keen on this.
