My main reason for switching to Arcade stick back in the day was that using pad caused me a ton of wrist pain. Moving the motion to larger muscle groups (whole arm vs. thumb/wrist) allows me to play for hours on end day after day pain free, which is the only real thing that matters to me :)

Same here, I've bought a stick because they look cool, but I keep using it because it is less stressful for the thumbs and wrists. I've made several attempts to turn back to a pad just to avoid carrying around a huge arcade stick, when I want to play at a friends house. But my thumbs get exhausted super quickly. It feels like typing with two fingers on a keyboard after learning 10-finger-typing. I'm using the stick not only for fighting games, but also for other games with digital inputs like run and guns, shmups or beat em ups. I can't imagine a life without arcade sticks anymore.

As for the cognitive load of wrapping your head around Hitbox movement, that will all get baked into your Type 1 thinking with practice. The thing I struggle with on pad is the fine manipulation, articulating the same motions in a tighter, more precise space, versus the coarser manipulation of the larger controllers. It's like playing a miniature guitar versus a piano, or signing your name on a grain of rice versus a pad of paper. Just feels super claustrophobic to me.

My biggest reason for switching to stick over pad is ease of access to repair/replacement parts. If I had a dollar for every d-pad I've destroyed playing fighting games, I'd have a few dollars, but nowhere near enough to replace the first busted controller. I'm aware that mods and extra parts are available, but I've never really been able to find what I need, and I'm way more uncomfortable taking a pad apart than a stick.

Some notes on pad that you missed. These show up in other Fighting Games outside of Street Fighter: ■ Pad has access to more macro buttons. Very relevant in Skull Girls and DBFZ who have a lots of 2-button combinations like Snapback and Vanish. You can also buy official Back Button Attachments for even more macro options. ■ Pad is *terrible* for Negative Edge characters, such as SF4 Juri or Zero in Marvel vs. Capcom. You need to either have awkward shoulder button macros or a claw grip (terrible for your wrists). ■ Arcade lever is great for Float Control in vs. games like DBFZ, where Super Jump Float determines a lot of neutral interactions. It is easy to accidentally use double jump on Pad, and float control is very unintuitive on All-Buttons layouts. ■ DPad + Analog stick SOCD tricks are very game-specific. In SF5, DPad down + Stick up = up, while in DBFZ DPad down + Stick up = down. ■ Modified DPad Buttons are great; the mod separates the single plastic piece into 4 individual buttons. Not only does it reduce the resistive force (no more charging thumb pains!), but it improves blocking precision, and unlocks additional SOCD tricks (DPad Left + DPad Right = Neutral) and shortcuts by skipping diagonals (2636 for Double QCF Super and 6246 for Half Circle Super in GG Strive) ■ For tournament setups without audio (especially at locals), you can plug Headphones into a pad, stealing the game audio. Especially nice with Active Noise Cancelling. More expensive boards for custom-built arcade sticks can also have this feature, but I've found it rare out in the wild.

K-Levers use a grommet instead of a spring pivot system, which allows you to snap back to neutral more quickly. Great for movement in Tekken with KBDs and wavedashing. But you can get a lighter tension grommet that lets you move more freely in 2D fighters. Works very well, honestly. Personally, I use battops on my Japanese levers because I like a more pronounced grip when I move. But that's just me. SOCD on Hitbox/Leverless also makes KBDs absolutely trivial in Tekken, and I love it.

These slight differences and advantages won't really matter much to the vast majority of players. Pick what's most fun and comfortable for you. I've always been better on stick than pad, even though pad has some clear advantages, so I play on stick. Also, sticks just look cool IMO. If you want to see how hitbox might feel you can definitely play on keyboard. Aside from the clutter of extra buttons everywhere, it's very similar. You can also map the layout to yoyr comfort and needs.

For the half-circle thing with hitbox, the best way I found of doing it was (for a half-circle forward / 41236); hold 4, hold 2+6, release 4+2. Much more consistent than trying to hold 4, then release 4 before holding 2, then hold 6, etc... The SOCD cleaner ensures that holding 4+6 down will cancel each other out so only the 2 (down) input comes out. This also made KoF and Guilty Gear playable, doing double half-circles and 63214+6H style inputs. 360's and 720's, I only found possible with the weird slide technique. I could do Goldlewis max charge 1080's with this though, which I had trouble with, even on stick. Tiger knee inputs are harder IMO. Try doing Dhalsim IA gales on hitbox and stick, stick is far easier. Same goes for things like Sagat kara fireball with f+HK. Overall I think stick is still better, except maybe for moving around in Tekken.

A topic that people don't really talk about is that you literally CAN do SOCD on arcade stick. Very often you have extra buttons on stick (usually the right two buttons L1 and L2 on my stick), you can bind those buttons to directions and execute SOCD moves! In some games you have the option to do this in game, like Tekken 7, and if the game doesn't provide this option you can achieve the same result on the steam controller options or the console options.

The only thing that happens when you connect an arcade stick is the analog stick directions are bind to nothing.

The first controller *I* played Street Fighter on was that one that had two giant buttons-one for punch, one for kick. You got different results depending on how hard you pressed (or more "pushed") the buttons, though since SF1 was a bit of a button-mashing game, it didn't much matter. Once you figured out "fireball motion", you were more or less set until Thailand. And then you really needed "weird uppercut motion" to win.

@29:00 I've found the trick to getting half circles with HitBox is to press: back, back+down, back+down+forward (SOCD down), release back+down and press the required button. I was trying to do this previously with pressing two buttons at a time, and I would often miss the required down input, especially if I was pressing a direction just before the half circle. Now I use the three directional button press method, I don't have a problem with half circles anymore (and dare I say, I was tempted to go back to stick to perform half circles and 360s, but now I can execute them quicker and cleaner on hitbox, which eliminates the last reason I had to ever go back to play on arcade stick).

it’s simple. leverless controllers allow the player to perform actions that are physically impossible to perform on the controllers that the game is designed around. On a hitbox, you can hold back and hold forward at the SAME TIME (physically impossible on normal controllers) which allows you to do things that the game is not designed to regulate like charging a sonic boom with guile while shooting your sonic boom the exact millisecond after shooting it. Doing things that your opponent cannot physically perform simply due to your controller then that’s an unfair advantage

Someone prob already mentioned it, but analog sticks and joysticks are very different. Joysticks have a gate, usually square or octagonal, with clearly defined directionals. They ONLY have 8 possible directions. Analog sticks have a massive, highly sensitive range of motion that is unnecessary and flat out detrimental to fighting game inputs.

Great video! The thing about pad that made it far worse for SF4 was chording (pressing a bunch of buttons at the same time), it is really awkward with a single thumb (instead of two fingers in the stick) and you needed that for plinking and fadc a lot. V-skill and V-Trigger needs also, but it is just a light touch just like a throw. Making lengthy chording not necessary anymore is vital to make these games more accessible

For dashing with a stick you don’t need to move the stick as far as possible for the input to be read, most sticks you can move it an extremely small distance and have the input be read, even with moving the stick as far as the gate allows the speed is very comparable to that of button input movement

I went from pad to leverless and the motions felt really intuitive to me. It never felt like "individual button press" like button by button but more of a string where I do a certain motion with my fingers. Doing half circle forward is the most intuitive thing ever, you just roll your hand from left to right. About the SOCD tricks, to me of course it is harder cause you have way more "codes" to remember but that's only because it is a layer of execution deeper that no other controller can do. At even type of requirement it's more comparable. If we talk accessibility, we shouldn't bring the highest execution requirement imo, we talk skill floor not ceilling. (skill floor still behing higher than any other controller ofc)

Blue Toad Rabbits - I was sent here to hear an opinion on different controllers from a friend. I recently got back into fighting games and haven't played one heavily since SF4. In close to middle age I'm not able to use a pad as it destroys my hand, and I need it for work (PS5 controllers DPad doesn't do this to me but that is a side note). I picked up a stick to get into fighting games and have come across the problem of a square stick vs an octagon stick's precision, and my shoulder tends to hurt after long sessions. So now I'm on the path of trying to learn a Hitbox variant and am going down the path of trying to learn that. The reason for mentioning these cons is the mention of fingers with the Hitbox and how other versions have similar problems that might catch someone off guard who is trying to learn the game.

Silly take. Realistically, humans can't 100% correctly account for the future. It doesn't matter what was the intention. What matters is the current state and what we can do with it. Cutting the number of controllers because they're new is braindead. Hitbox breaks nothing. Just makes things in the game easier and more intentional. Also, the games are changing with the controllers to allow exactly that: easier inputs with intentionality. You're acting like fighting games aren't the genre where discovering new (and most often unintended) tech which changes the game-flow is basically standard.

PS4 D-Pad tip that I have never seen mentioned: You *DON'T* actually have to *SLIDE* your finger across the D-Pad. I used to be one of those people who hated charge characters, always playing on pad. I watched a bunch of youtube videos in an effort to figure out what I was doing wrong... Nothing they said seemed like anything new... So I was staring at my controller trying to visualize what I needed to do when I noticed that the PS4 + shape with the X cut out of the middle also has a little dimple where the buttons meet, and it dawned on me. Just use the dimple. You don't actually have to slide left to right, or down to up. It's as simple as a little twitch. I went from constantly f'ing up my charge moves to nailing them nearly every time. Bonus tip: Bat top actually feels pretty good for dashing if you press the lever on the shaft, where it meets the box - effectively making it a shorter throw. You can do it with the tip of your thumb, for left, or the side of your middle finger and a quick pronation of the wrist, for right. You can do it with ball, too, but I feel like it's a little cleaner w/ the bat.

As someone who is left handed and plays a lot of fighting games on keyboards and hitbox, I don't agree with a lot of the cons you have listed for all buttons controllers.... But for some reason that make sense when you consider the difference between handedness. Non-intuitive, I agree with, mainly because of the jump button on hitbox not being above the down direction like it would be if playing on a keyboard. Contextual isn't much of an issue even without SOCD tricks. Being left handed and learning to play guitar right handed probably helped with that. The negative edge/half circles/SPD/360 motions is another thing that isn't that bad if you have used your left hand your entire life. SPDs are actually kinda easy on hitboxes or keyboards. Some fighting games don't actually require a full 360 motion. down, left, right, up+attack button is enough on most of them. Or any combination of those four directions ending with the attack button (the hitbox arcade youtube channel has a video demo of this exact thing). As for half circles, I play Makoto in 3rd Strike. Dash forward karakusa is scary, right? Her forward dash moves mad far and is quick. I think it took me around 10 minutes to figure it out when I started playing 3rd Strike a few years ago. Weak fingers... I had the opposite problem when learning to play fighting games. It took me so much time getting my right hand to do what I wanted it to. Left hand was no problem, though.

Blue Toad Rabbits, I was clicking around for the parts I was interested in XD Some comments on fight pads and non-Japanese sticks, two sections you didn't seem to know much about: The main benefit of a fight pad is that for games that let you map r3 and l3, you have easy access to all 10 buttons, and in SFV you make hitbox players cry with your extra functionalityᵗᵐ in training mode. Plus, some people really prefer the feel of floating d-pads or crosspads. Snake_Eyez is notoriously great at walking 720s on a floating d-pad, and ProblemX makes great use of a Hori Fighting Commander. As far as Korean Sticks go, the highest profile player to use one was Infiltration. While certainly a Persona Non Grata, it serves more as an example that you absolutely can have success playing on a Korean joystick at the highest level of street fighter. Korean joysticks are well represented across multiple games, and if a player is nostalgic for the feel of American joysticks, short collar Korean joysticks which are designed to fit inside Japanese enclosures are a great alternative to buying/fully assembling a stick on their own. Speaking of American sticks, there are considerable downsides in terms of assembly and availability. There are currently only a couple of preassembled commercial options, neither of which work on current gen consoles, so you better be happy using a screwdriver. Nonetheless, John Choi still rocks a MAS and he is the last American to win a Street Fighter EVO back in 08, so again personal preference is what's going to matter here.

I feel like the discussion surrounding the Hit- and Mixbox tends to lean a bit too hard on this idea of "gaming the system". Everyone's always talking about how you can do this and that cheat with it or how it has these advantages you can't get on stick, when really I think it's only intended to be an accessible controller for people that don't like sticks or pads. It's just a specialized tool to give people an option to play in their preferred way. One of my friends plays with a Mixbox and it clicks with her, because she's played on PC since she was young and the keyboard-esque directional inputs make it easier to adapt to this new genre for her while gaining the benefits of better buttons. Meanwhile, I take one look at that thing, think about how I'd do half-circles on that thing and say "No thanks, I'm sticking with pad." Comfort is the name of the game with controllers and this has never been more important than in very input-intensive games like fighting games. The less you need to stress out about how you move your fingers around the controller, the more you can focus on the fun part of playing the game.

I recently got into fighting games and was really inspired to dive deep and learn as much as possible. I also replaced my playstation controller with a kitsune. Many of the ergonomics reasons apply moving from a two finger tiny buttons controller, but the biggest thing is consistency. There was nothing ever more frustrating than abilities not going off because the d-pad is one single piece, so doing left-right inputs would often inadvertently press up/down depending on how high or low my thumb was on the L/R button. I would go into practice mode with characters and if their moveset featured more than one niche use case L-R input I would just skip the character because I knew that it would be frustrating. It's partly a skill issue, going from the furthermost edge to furthermost edge on the d-pad helps make it easier to make the input more accurate, but for me it was just a 100% consistency issue where I want to press the buttons and the input I made to translate into the game. Also, being new to fighting games, and also many people saying that leverless controllers require a lot of muscle memory re-learning and practice, I thought I might as well start with something that solves the problem I have and people think is great. I've been having lots of fun with it now, with none of the previous frustration where 10% of the time my input just wouldn't execute because of the directional buttons being what they are.

Using D-pad + left stick feels weird at first, but you just do it for a while and it becomes second nature. It's not nearly as big of a shift as switching to keyboard type of movement, since they indeed function so similarly, it's not a new kind of job for your left thumb to wrap your head around. I kinda hate the bit my thumb has to travel, but whether they control the same thing or have a unique function, it feels really cool to flash between them and maybe even do a bit of claw. Also, one usually irrelevant mark against the PS5 controller: My god start and select sink into the controller. I always instead use the two buttons in the very center if possible.

Korean levers have the issue of dash inputs solved, and the answer is rubber grommets for that sweet near instant return to neutral. Pair that with some modified switches, actuators, and/or shafts, and you are ready to dash for days. Also, there are various techniques used for fast dashing that I'd argue are on par with button presses. You have to remember people were dash canceling and IADing links back in the arcades on stock Seimitsus/JLFs with those tight af controls so it is definitely possible; much harder than pad and hitbox for sure, but still possible.

I've never found that I need to focus to use my keyboard, and I don't think I'll need to focus to use an all-button pad either. But I am used to it now, and while my ring finger was slow at first, it isn't anymore, and I don't have any trouble with inputs on the ring finger.

In a way it's cool how the FGC has adopted the dpad for real-time action gameplay, but ultimately it's designed as a menu-scrolling tool. For the people who's hands are lucky enough to not have issues (for now) with pad, and don't mind having to replace their controller regularly because the pad rubber wore out, good for them. But ultimately I think the two controller types which go out of their way to cater for fighting games make the most sense, will save your hands from much more pain, and will last a lot longer
