Sanjuk V3, Knee Lever, Sanjuk V6, Sanwa JLF: Test and Comparison

[@takohma1056]

Great video. I ordered a Knee lever. Should be here in a few days. Can’t wait to train with it.

did you tested Knee lever ? what do you think ?

I want to know if the lever is good too!!

Great review have you tried a knee v1 with A3 switches yet

[@theamvnoob]

Guys I got a Knee Lever Neo and its great for me. I used to game on Crown 309MJ (old one not helpme) with a tense grommet but I don't remember what color now. I am getting used to the knee one but so far I love it.

[@F.Castle]

Would love to see you try the Seimitsu lsx-NOBI bullet lever, it's suppose to be a japanese lever designed by Tekken player Nobi

[@DioRando98]

Just ordered the KNEE lever, THX.

[@Ludde00]

i just oredered one for tekken 8, how has it treated you since you bought it?

[@REVOLUZION1]

Hi bro! I'm playing Tekken 8 with Hori Alpha Tekken 8 Edition, modified the original Hori lever with a seimitsu LS-32 lever instead, a bigger actuator and a 3LB spring. ¿D you think is al right to start? May be I will chage to sanjunk V6 in the future for comparing. Thank you!

[@ashihna2953]

The first lever is very important because it decides how you like and play. For me i used sanwa jlf as first and I like its size and diagonals. It takes lots of efforts to switch one another. I think try as much as possible in the beginning and then decide the one which fits you best

[@REVOLUZION1]

@@ashihna2953 Ok. Thank you! May be I will try your sanwa lever in the future. ¿D you know if It will be compatible with Hori Alpha Stick Tekken 8 Edition? With a bat top Will be perfect. Thank you!

Bro keep it up that handcam content. btw, crazy dongpal or taeyoung fanta which one better ?

@@ashihna2953 how long do you play tekken. im impress u can do a specific hard characters move like bryan taunt, and kazuya pewgf. how long u training using arcade stick. i suck at arcade stick then switch to pad again .

[@ashihna2953]

@@apisixd2260 I started playing with tekken 7 in 2017 and I has been using stick since then. I also casually played t6 with pad few times around 2014-2015 with my friends in ps3 cafe but we did not even know simple combo. Learning stick and doing hard combo are satisfying, however it does not decide/show if the player is good or not. I am still not a good player and I need to improve my fundemantals such as poking, defence-match ups, side step, etc. I personally suggest new players to learn fundemantal rather than combo or hard execution moves. Nobody told me this so I wasted many of my hours trying hard moves and combos :]

Could you give me any tips on how not to jump forward when doing the forward input for the wavedash/EWGF on 2p side?

[@ashihna2953]

I think there is no tips for that. After doing lots of practice you will not do this mistake over time. I was also doing that mistake in the beginning. It still happens time to time but not as much as before.

I recommend Korean joystick levers and American joystick levers for all arcade games, including fighting games, beat'em ups, Pac-Man, Dig Dug, shoot'em ups, etc..

[@electroelysium2281]

Japanese ones work best in 2D fighting IMHO. 3D fighting though, nothing Beats the Korean lever

[@ezrolly898]

Just to be clear, the sanjuks v6 fits into the nacon daija?

[@Pichoniix]

So you liked the Knee lever but if what if you put a 35a on the Sanjuks V6 same as the Knee Lever, will the Knee lever still be your favorite over the Sanjuks V6?

[@ashihna2953]

Both are good but I was playing with sanwa jlf and switching from it to knee was easier for me. Sanjuk v6 has the best diagonals and good for pewgf otgf skyrocket but less accurate for qcf like bryan or sometimes do df2 instead of regular ewgf with mishimas other than kazuya

[@alvinkim1305]

Have you tried Silent JLF for Mishimas? If so, what are your thoughts?

[@ashihna2953]

No, I havent tried it yet.

[@m-vendor]

Sanjuk v3 , Fujin are the best

[@spookzdoublez2189]

Is that the knee neo lever or the ist?

[@ashihna2953]

It was normal knee lever the video was 2 years ago 😅

[@imekosfull]

Hi, your video is very interesting also your movement is sick i wonder how much time it took for you to master movement. my question is about the arcade stick nacon daija it comes with additional korean stick, what do you think about it?

[@ashihna2953]

Hi Mohamed, thanks for your comment. I started with tekken 7 and it took at least 2000+ hours according to steam and ps4 playtime. I tried the bat handle which comes with daija and it is preferably good (the size, weight and feeling are better than the bat handle that comes from razer panthera). In general, I like the ease of handling and the ergonomic of bat top while I like the quickness and responsiveness of japanese lever. Therefore, japanese lever with bat top would be good option for me and i would recommend it to ones who have just started to play with stick. However, i used to play japanese lever with ball top. Since, I need to re-learn many technicques which i can perform on ball top, i continued to play japanese lever with ball top instead of bat top. In future, maybe I would invest more time to japanese lever with bat top.

[@imekosfull]

@@ashihna2953 that's a nice choice maybe i will do that too, im new with arcade sticks so this gives me a wider vision on them, i don't know where can i find sticks like fujin or sanjuk. Anyways Keep up the good work bro 👍

You need at least 4 button but nowadays 8 is standard. Which gate is up to you, usually they say circular is better. Knee lever and almost all korean levers are circular in principle.

[@AhsanWasim]

Is hitbox crossup legal

[@ashihna2953]

Unfortunately yes because devs and Tournament Orginizers dont care about fairness. They only care money and hitbox pays money to them for being sponsor. Normally, keyboard, hitbox and cross up should not be legal because they press multiple direction at the same time which makes moves way easier like macro does. E.g. slide move was something d df d but these devices turn slide into ff move. If devs want it they would make slide as ff move. Similirly kbd, wdash, ewgf, iwr, difficult moves become easier. Ability to change moves input to simpler is called Macro. It is the same logic but people do not have balls to speak this fact public. There will be always some people who want to cheat, lie to him/herself about this is fair etc. Companies know that there are people who use macro, savescum, usung autoblock etc and somehow satisfy their ego. Thus, companies like hitbox know that their product will sell even if they bend the rules, because there are many people who want to take shortcut, cheat and satisfy their ego.

@@AhsanWasim I would blame the developers as they do not care and draw the lines about what is legal and what is not. In my opinion If they allow crossup, then they should also allow macro devices. Then it would be totally unga bunga show so that these butthurt cheaters can get what they want in their deepest inner desire and they would not need to hide behind some excuses such as we press two buttons it is legal bla bla. Seriously, if macro make hard execution moves %100 easier, then crossup makes it %90. Lets give then this remaining 10 percentage to them. Then they can satisfy their ego but the game would become pointless .
