Will not happen i think.
That 3rd party device that lets you use a Mouse and keyboard is actually against the Xbox Terms of service and the advanced acceleration speed of controller input gets picked up by Xbox live as Cheating or Hacking and gets you banned.
I would be very shocked if it was supported. And if it was.. i would say only in special Matchmaking modes and Single-player. Last game that supported this i can remember was UnrealTorniment3 on the PS3.. so maybe the PS3 Version only haha?... i dknow.
Still waiting for the Mouse vs Controller Esports wars to happen. .. its funny how attached some people get to a particular hardware.. when really the player is the biggest element.
If you cant see that Both Mouse and anolog Controllers have deferent competitive advantages in Shooting games.. i think you really haven't appreciated the strengths of each enough.
Mouse has almost limitless Acceleration
Controller has limitless tracking.
I don't know why you're pretending that they're on the same level when they're clearly not. A person highly skilled with a gamepad would get his ass kicked by even an average keyboard and mouse user. The speed and precision of the keyboard and mouse is just too much for the gamepad to keep up.
Why are you tearing apart a helpful post? It all looked legitimate to me...no need to start stupid arguments. An opinion is an opinion. A Controller does have its advantages and so does Keyboard & Mouse, it is all personal preference.
Apparently he is entitled to his opinion but I'm not entitled to mine? Heck, mine isn't just an opinion, it's FACT:

I know some would like to pretend that all preferences are equal, but in terms of competitive gaming, nothing beats the keyboard and mouse. If you prefer gamepads for other reasons like rumble or whatever, that's fine. Just don't pretend that the gamepad is on the same level as keyboard and mouse competitive-wise.
