    Haven’t had much time with the elite series 2. However, what little time I have had it is far superior to the elite series 1. The controller feels heavier and of higher quality than the series 1.

    If you want full control of fps shooters, you MUST HAVE THIS CONTROLLER. It’s incredible. The battery life and trigger locks with smaller paddles have me steamrolling in pvp.

    I purchased the original elite 3yrs ago. It was worth every penny. The elite 2 is better in every way, it’s like holding a glock in your hand. It’s thr best hands down controller on the market.

    I will never use another controller for any of my games. The series 2 is amazing! I definitely recommend this over anything "custom made" by scuff.
