That won’t work since Valve doesn’t want to bake such software into SteamOS.
My guess is that they’ll use FaceIt AC as a server side component to detect cheaters.

Valve still uses Ubuntu as it’s base for it’s Linux game runtimes. Dev’s are encouraged to use it for developing Linux games, since it guarantees specific dependencies being available. This runtime is a container which comes with Steam and works on any distro.
Valve basically solved Linux problem with too many distros with different deps.
Some gamepad player are really good. Especially in Overwatch, which has characters like Mercy, Moira or Reinhardt that can provide value even without good aim.
Though Overwatch doesn’t have aim assist on pc, so it’s probably difficult even for most experienced gamepad players.
It is an immutable distro, altough it isn’t image-based like Fedora’s rpm-ostree.
NixOS basically replaces Ansible because the Nix package manager achieves the same goals already (configuration, deployment, …).
But I agree, the work necessary to put into this non-standard distro makes it hard to recommend for a casual user.
Arch updates going bad is much more likely to happen if the system goes without updates for a long time. So I’d really not recommend it for a seldomly used laptop.
But regularly updated Arch is fine. Even if something breaks it’s usually easy to deal with.
