Which is better: Claw Grip or Paddles?

[@frenchie7777]

Paddles and L3 is all I need! I used to use a strike pack for about a year, then I bought a scuff and it broke within two months. I then bought the Power Fusion A acontroller and it has been by far the best option I’ve had.

[@BOGGGIIIEEE]

PowerA is definitely an affordable option i love it so much

[@frenchie7777]

@Piece Control right!!! It’s dang near the same price as a regular controller

[@frenchie7777]

Also the sticks on the power A are amazing

[@djmilehigh7472]

Just got a power a last week, like it more than my old elite controller so far

[@niciomartinez2903]

I always liked playing claw rather then paddles but as time went by the pain started catching up in my wrist thumb and forearms so I’d say long term claw isn’t worth it but everyone’s different

[@eastersundaecavity5413]

I've tried paddles once, and I never really liked the feel of them. On the other hand, I've been using claw grip ever since I had a PS2. I've never really had problems with it, no pain, no issues, and I still prefer using claw to this day. It's too the point that even when I don't need to use the face buttons, my index finger is always on top. It just somehow feels unnatural now when my index finger is on the trigger or bumper.

What did it felt like when you first tried claw grip?

[@cl1nkzy]

​@@cl1nkzy this is very reassuring bro. 2nd day converting to claw when I've played default my whole life. So far I'm practicing 1h a day, put in 2h total since its been 2d. Some wrist pain, but I'm expecting it to go away once my muscles adjust and the muscle memory comes in

[@th3w1ldrov3r_]

If you’re on ps4 still, the back button attachment is OP. only 30$ only thing is just be delicate when installing it because it’s kinda fragile. It took me a few sessions to get used to it, so play ZB and use left paddle jump (X) and right paddle sprint (L3). This way I can jump/sprint with either hand. So if I’m just roaming around I’ll use X to jump and mantle, and when I’m actually fighting someone in tight quarters, I’ll use paddle for jump. Same with sprint, it’s nice when roaming map to not have to click L3 constant and just use paddle and auto/toggle run.

[@vincentmichael7979]

Been playing claw since N64 because we had no choice. Didn’t know it was abnormal until my nephews pointed it out

[@naufty8993]

Paddles are such a waste of money. Unless you get the back button attachment or a strike pack, it’s just downright a scam to buy a controller just for paddles that cost $200. Claw is not bad for you as long as you properly take care of your hand/wrist

You should turn your fps counter back on, and play on high settings with medium post processing and 240fps

[@Avozie]

I highly recommend double claw grip. Depending on how fast a Lerner you are it can take you 1-2 weeks if you stick with claw and don’t cheat and go back to regular hand grip.😁

[@Sid271]

I prefer only right hand claw. Double claw is very painful 😭😭😭😭

Claw is better scuf is overrated

took me 3 days and i’m way better from learning it. I switched from paddles.

[@imstealthy4640]

You should learn claw, its free and in imo its thr beat decision you can make. I switched to claw a year ago and i get no pain in my hand. The grip isnt un natural or awkward but you just have to get used to it. And it only takes a few days to learn 10 days max and you will have more acces to buttons on claw rather than paddles

I thought about it and tried claw and paddles at a friends house and paddles I found were better. Not only I don’t use claw because of the damage it can cause but I just bought an elite 2 controller which was expensive but completely worth it.

[@kedwyd6535]

I’ve been playing claw for almost 2 years now (inspired by sway) and have no pains. I can definitely say I felt pain on the first few weeks of trying claw then muscle memory got me used to it. It feels so comfortable now no matter what controller I use. Personal preference tho

[@DOROHEDOROFAN]

I played on paddles for around a year, and I much prefer the claw grip. I spent 300$ on an xbox elite controller only for it to arrive with 2 defective paddles straight outta the box. I've been playing claw for around 4 months now, and I recently switched to right hand spider claw, I just find it much more comfortable

[@gamerboixx4248]

Good thing about the elite 2 is that it has customisable thumb sticks so it is easier to get used to claw on one of these controllers and you can just take the paddles off. Been trying them both recently and still finding it hard which one is better for me.

[@10eLSe11]

Does anyone use back buttons and still play claw ? I'm using back buttons now but want to learn claw aswell mainly just for triangle and square on ps5.

[@Carter2k]

There's a couple pro players I know that use at least one paddle along with playing claw. Wolfiez plays right claw and uses 1 paddle and whofishy plays left claw and uses 2 paddles

[@JonasMackie]

Just workout your hands to counter the hand thing with the claw grip👍
