However, it does not mean that the thumb players are noob because they cannot play with 4 fingers at once. A lot of pro players are thumb players. It's the best style for supporters in a PUBG Mobile team. If you take the leading, sniping, and assaulting roles, you had better play with the claw setting.

Besides, thumb setting is not better in close combat because you need to do a combo of actions and movements, such as crouch, prone, jump, and open scope. Players in those roles shouldn't choose to play with two thumbs because you cannot do all those movements.

The claw setting lets you do all movements quickly to master close combat.

In addition, the thumb setting is better than the claw setting for gyro players. Then, thumb players with a gyroscope can shoot better than claw players and play other roles.

Claw Players

If you use a claw setting, you can do all actions like crouch, jump, and drop shots. Moreover, it's better for ADS because you can open the scope quickly. You can learn the claw settings from pro players and then adjust the control setting based on your preference.
