In my opinion there are 2 reasons to buy the Ally:
If you care more about the overall experience, ease of use, battery life, input options, color, sharpness, repairability, customer service, software options, etc. etc., SD is the answer.
Why anyone would want to play a competitive game with a controller is lost on me.
SD has a 800p/90Hz display. This is a higher pixel density than the MacBook Retina display. And a higher frame rate than you'll want to run most games at. But not enough for some, I guess.
