Twitch streamer Jynxzi unveiled his new custom controller. Designed by Scuf, the Jynxzi controller is available to buy now.
Jynxzi took the Twitch world by storm in 2023, skyrocketing to the top of subscription leaderboards. The streamer currently sits as the most-subbed-to streamer on the website with a whopping 116k active subscribers. The only other streamer that comes close is Kai Cenat at 109k subscribers. Third place, held by streamer Ibai, sits way down at 55k subscribers. Jynxzi's new partnership with Scuf is the latest of many for the trending entertainer.
On Jynxzi's TikTok, the Twitch streamer revealed his new Scuf controller, which features a customized design that displays his trademark catchphrase, "Good aim," as well as other references to the entertainer's personal streaming culture. The premium controller is priced at $230 USD and features remappable paddles, switchable triggers, interchangeable thumbsticks, separate configuration profiles, and a non-slip coating that makes gripping the controller easy and satisfying.
Jynxzi rose to fame by playing Rainbow Six Siege, with Siege being one of Ubisoft's most successful games. Siege is a popular first-person-shooter game that takes many hours to master, making competent streamers a sought-after resource for players who are trying to improve. The Scuf Instinct Pro, which is the Scuf model that Jynxzi's new controller uses, allows players to assign functions to paddles on the back of the controller. This allows users to perform actions without needing to remove their thumbs from the thumbsticks, allowing for a much more seamless experience. This resembles a keyboard user's ability to hit a plethora of different keys without needing to take their hand off of the mouse.
There are many controllers on the market that offer this paddle feature, but Scuf takes it to another level with its premium design and quality control. The company piles on additional features to justify its expensive price tag, and also has a good reputation for being a lasting product, unlike similar products such as Microsoft's Xbox Elite controller.
Fans of Jynxzi will be excited to get their hands on this new controller, seeing that many of his fans are likely FPS gamers who could use an upgrade like a Scuf controller. However, Jynxzi's fan base also runs quite young, and most teenagers probably don't have $230 lying around to spend on a single Xbox controller. Scuf does offer some cheaper alternatives, like the Scuf Instinct (non-pro) which comes in at $170 USD.
