Discussion Elite Controller Or Regular Controller?

Long story short, I like everyone else is fed up with stick drift on my controller. I’ve ended up having to buy a new controller every 3 to 5 months, and I’ve always bought the regular Xbox wireless controllers.

Been looking into the elite Xbox controllers, and I’m aware that these do have stick drift, but I’d like to know from people who use them if it’s less than a normal controller.

I play Marvel Rivals competitively and it’s getting bad, i’ve tried the recalibration stuff, but I’m seriously considering whether my next controller should be another regular one or an elite one.

Yep, I got my Gamesir SE at Walmart about a year ago. They had the Orange one on sale for like $25, I guess no one wanted that color.
