I can relate. I was playing Rocket League with my Xbox Elite 2 controller at probably Champ 3 level, for years, and it was like second nature. Then I switched to the latest 8bitDo controller and I couldn't aerial. But I was going all in and retraining my hands and brain and at one point I was like at Plat 2 level with both controllers, because I was midway into rewiring my neural pathways. ๐Ÿ’€ But now I'm finally starting to regain ranks after playing exclusively with the new controller for months.

It's crazy what the brain is capable of. Truly awesome, in the awest of senses.
