2:58, I love how box controllers are so godlike that even if you aren’t concerned with getting the most shallow diagonal Firefox angle, they are still great. I started playing melee 8 months ago, and made the switch about a month and a half ago and it feels great. I used to claw my SHAC up airs as ICs while wavedash if and doing other things with a normal grip, and I didn’t want that to be and issue in the future since I changed between the two quite often. Love the content.

As an unbeliveablely hard boxx user can't go wrong there. 20XX for everything. I own one that I wrote custom code for with the new pico board so I could play dark souls directly on my pc. They are so much fun.

[@JbrockPony]

Definitely a guilty past time to collect weird controllers lately. I swear, sometimes I play and just want to hear the audible feedback from my levelerless controllers 😌

[@atWisely]

Yeah, when I said it saves you money, there's a huge asterisk of "unless you start collecting" LOL

[@bunbun7623]

Truly underrated

[@FeltonDood]

Excellent video introducing this controller type. Good stuff my man.

[@theorang1]

ouch, the smashbox looks like hell

[@powwu]

Watched this while fiddling with my custom rectangle. Lovely video!

[@JubiloFGC]

Hey nice video. I’m looking to build a custom smashbox-style ‘rectangle’ in the next few weeks, and I want to ask if you have any DIY communities to recommend. I want to get a lot of people’s advice and opinions on this sort of thing.

[@atWisely]

I've never gotten into the DIY side myself, I really wish I had covered that in the video though since a ton of people brought it up. I know there's some discord communities, but I'm not familiar with any specifics, sorry 😢

[@Bailzsz]

I can’t find a boxx what so ever honestly so I’ve just been playing threw the hand pain because I don’t wanna get rusty and I don’t got 200-300$ Canadian to spend on a boxx:/

[@cesurtheguy3807]

Fantastic video I love these types of controllers. I was able to get into the traditional fighting games because of used my keyboard as a hitbox. Thanks to it I was able to do dashes and moves consistently. I have a question though. How can I replicate a Boxx-style controller for platform fighters on my keyboard? I play Rivals and Brawlhala.

[@atWisely]

I know you're definitely able to, many top players use keyboard in both games. I've never set it up myself, but I'm sure there's guides out there!

[@cesurtheguy3807]

@@atWisely thank you

[@mobkiller]

Excellent video

[@Tusslers]

Fire vid bro 🔥

[@Xearrik]

I would like it if I could use a keyboard the same way. But platform fighters don't seem to have ways to program the modifiers with a keyboard. I'd like the keyboard option mostly because I can't justify the price of leverless controllers. I know about the long-run argument, but that doesn't work for me because I don't buy controllers like that. I have my Switch Pro, PlayStation, and an 8-bit Do Ultimate. I still mostly use my keyboard for PC games. I'm just not willing to drop multiple hundreds of dollars for a single controller for a single genre of games. I play a lot of different video games, and these leverless controllers would seriously eat into my gaming budget, and it's only for 2 games. I'm mostly intrigued by the idea of leverless controllers for Smash Ultimate and now Rivals 2.

[@atWisely]

I know you can use a keyboard for Rivals (many top players play with one in fact), but I'm not sure of a way to make it work with ultimate. I feel like I've heard of an adapter you can buy to make it work on a switch, but I can't find it now.

[@Xearrik]

Do you know if Rivals 2 will have full keyboard support? Or does it already maybe? One thing I was thinking about was a keyboard with some sort of programable feature so that I could create modifier keys. Or a program on your computer that can do it. A decent keyboard is a fraction of the price, and I'm thinking it could be just as good with a few custom keycaps. In fact, I have a 3d printer. What if I pulled off the keys I didn't need from a keyboard, and replaced the ones I would use with 3D-printed keycaps that were more ergonomic? @@atWisely

[@atWisely]

I think it already does? But I didn't check myself There's a HUGE DIY box/rectangle community, you could def put something together!

[@Str8EdgeJesse]

Boxes

[@atWisely]

So true

[@connorkelly5382]

awesome video

[@atWisely]

[@bunfrost]

love the content man!

[@grealy13]

rly cool vid :3

[@sleepynuigurumiamalgamation]

Good vid but i think at least a small mention of haxx for their effort on the early & many later designs of boxx for melee. Not sure a good segway so maybe im wrong. (They are on my mind a lot due to their shown effort on youtube with 1.03 & development / action towards so far so think a better direction for controllers for melee) Im a keyboard player though looking for boxx eventually for a rivals & traditional fighters

[@makkennedy3813]

what if I want a circle?

This is actually my favorite controller that I own (and most comfortable)

[@Midori_Hoshi]

Button boxes

[@lilCork100]

[@CoolkiddVids]

buttons 😍

[@Pslamist]

B0XX

[@akey5954]

i hate playing people who use rectangles

[@atWisely]

👍

[@ividboy7616]

Man I love it when a controller that essentally macros perfectly precise analog inputs is compared to a controller that just, puts the buttons in a different place. (The idea that box controllers are remotely okay in a competitive setting is a brain virus that almost the entirety of the smash community has caught)
