For me, the biggest strength of the steam controller was using the right trackpad for FPS-style games... basically a virtual trackball mouse. Once you got used to it it's incredibly responsive and a huge upgrade on a joystick.

I never managed to get my deck to work like that. The trackpads are just too small and don't seem as responsive somehow? Granted, I do have quite large hands
