I don’t understand how this channel has only 700 Subs, great production, fantastic edit, great quality content, you got my sub bro
youtube doesnt want small creators to make it
@@KindKrakenit’s true
Love the in the Depth description, Am currently looking to switch from Pad to Stick, Thanks for the detailed look.
You’re very welcome my friend, glad we could help. Thanks for the comment and support.
I've probably watched your Victrix Pro FS review like 10 times and thanks to you I finally ordered one. Thank you man please keep doing these amazing reviews. Much love from Texas!
Yay! I’m so happy we were a huge help to you. Thank you for such an amazing comment. Enjoy your new stick and keep pressing them buttons.
this guy has production quality like some CNET, how's he only at 1.3K subs??? the set and the lighting and the camera work, and everything is so professional looking. Great channel. I know this is an odd request, but perhaps you could review the Mad Catz TE3 stick next? lol...that stick got such negative reaction to it...
love the purple. sick review
Inspired me to get one too! ;) Great content as always gentlemen! Worth the price and is my favorite commercial arcade stick now, regardless of price
Love your reviews man! Hope you decide to do one for the Obsidian 2!
Great video. Your channel has the production values of a channel with 100K subs. Here’s hoping 🤞
Great review!
My only real issue - aside from cost - is the placement of the headphone jack. I would have preferred it on the side
thanks, ive been researching lately for a new pad. the fatal fury: city of wolves hype is real.
nice love the review. 😍
I have one of these and i love it. Im only new to the FGC but dove in with this and its been amazing for helping me nail my inputs. I play Gran Blue Fantasy Versus Rising, SF6, Tekken 8, Guilty Gear Strive, DNF Duel.
I still suck but having the Pro FS always helps me get in the zone when doing training and playing.
Great Video !😊
I’m getting mine tomorrow any tips or websites to get ball tops
@@supremethelegend9699 I just have the standard top, I'm not good enough to know a good or bad top 😂 I want a button top for tekken 8
Arcade shock, focus attack and paradise arcade are all great sites to shop. Congrats on the new stick!
Great review! pricey but you certainly get a luxury with it 😮
I had panthera evo before and i was playing on korean lever because victrix have big case my lever felt shorter so u might consider new shaft or extender
You convinced me to pull the trigger, ordered mine last night! Your particular set up looks sick, what stick and ball top are you using?
It’s a Sanwa JLF with the Otto DIY upgrade and just a clear bubble ball top. And The Qanba Gravity’s buttons are top notch. Check out that video also. Thanks for the comment and support.
@@ButtonClubFGC Thanks so much for replying, look forward to future videos, keep up the great work and production!
Gotta have it
can i use the trackpad as a right joystick/mouse curser. for games like fortnite etc? for adjusting camera?
I don’t believe you can, but I also haven’t tried it. I think you still need the L stick and D Pad for that.
WOW! When he said subscribe the subscribe button lighted up! Wow CZcams!! 15:35
After watching this ive decided on getting one of these instead of the Victrix BFG… whats the difference between having stick and leverless??
Thanks for the comment. If you check out episode 2 of the Safe Sets podcast on this channel, we go over different control types and the benefits of each one. I hope it answers all your questions.
hello, where did you buy you buttons and stick ball? ty
Those were purchased at www.arcadeshock.com
is the white one made out of the same material? I find the purple one to be really annoying to start using because it's so cold
Yes, regardless of color, they are all made out of the same material.
i would love to Buy one but what turns me off is its only available in Purple and White.
The older models had different colors, like the PS4 one came in black. And there were Street Fighter custom etched ones. Since it's officially licensed by Sony, you could get one used in the last gen and still be able to play it on PS4 and PC. That'll even save you some money. I hope that was helpful. Thanks for your comment and support.
Is changing the buttons super hard on this thing?
Not at all, it's actually easy. Thanks for the comment!
I want this stick but im terrified Ive a lot of bad things
Hey man. Where did you get that sick purple joystick at?😮
It’s the phreakmods link in anodized purple. Check ArcadeShock or FocusAttack!
@ButtonClubFGC Awesome thank you so much!!!! Love your reviews! I just purchased the purple one after watching your video. Thank you!!
Good video do you have son web to finde parts of arcade stick
I usually go through arcadeshock.com or you can check out focusattack.com to order parts and other things to customize what you got. Thanks for the comment and support, I apologize for how long it took me to respond. Keep pressing them buttons!
It's a nice stick, but let's be real...who's trying to lose $450 (after tax and shipping) for a controller? Almost the price of a PS5 for a controller? 😅
People who can afford it
@@AndrewCastle-el7rn Nice "broke boy" dig on the down low there. I see you lol
This controller will last you for a decade +
Meeeee🖐🏾🖐🏾🖐🏾🖐🏾 I dooooooo
@fayelis I don't think that's much of a selling point imo. My Qanba Drone is 8 years old and it shows no signs of stopping. I mean, you can be a bit rougher with the metal chassis of the Vitrix sure, but I can't imagine actually being THAT hard on a stick that it's a necessary consideration is a normal thing. Again, I'm NOT saying it's a bad controller. If somebody actually loved me enough to give me one as a gift, I would probably cry, so I KNOW it's good. But despite knowing I could technically order one if I wanted, I just can't fathom why someone would for anything other than clout, which is dumb to me
Great review but you earned my subscription from the bullet club reference. Too sweet dawg
When’s that button video coming?
Soon! Sorry we had some delays getting into the studio
Tanks
Does it fit a K-Lever without tinkering?
I’ve seen people do it, but I personally haven’t done it before. The only thing I know is that there’s two pegs on the case that you’ll have to grind down. Thanks for the comment and your support.
Does it come with an octagonal gate?
It comes standard with a square gate but it’s super easy to swap the gate to octagon.
Thanks man. Great videos.
And definitely right now on the market those Qanba gravity KS's and the Qanba silent Stick is phenomenal I have both Love those late night sessions without hearing my wife complain 😂😂😂
Same! Lol did the exact same thing
Big points deducted for being the same price as a PS5!😂😂
The only thing that really kills me from buying this arcade stick is the fact that the input delay on it is still very high It's like five milliseconds to some people it doesn't matter but to me it's matters I really hope in the future they fix it and try to get it to 1 millisecond instead I love that hori fights stick alpha It's definitely has the one millisecond delay
Which stick model in Hori is the one that has one millisecond for PS5?
@@SotitoFox the only one I knew of is the Hori fighting Edge
The input delay is high? What?
im not among the people who jumped on the "flatbox" hype train because I don't like such controllers, Prefer playing on Sanwa denshi's personally. I wanted to pick up the Pro FS12 when it launched.
I really wanna get the victrix but considering its so pricy it should have no compromises. And me needing to choose between L3/R3 just sours this whole product to me and is borderline unacceptable to me and down right arbitrary. Without even going into the useless hand rest IF you play on the FS12 version. (victrix fs price also just casually got increased by 50$ then the earlier one for no reason).
im sure I would enjoy playing on it and I do want to add it to my collection, But I can't support such a product. Once they fix that its an instant buy for me.
Patiently waiting for the PRO FS 12 version 2 to fix those little but not trivial things ^^'
Why purple and white but not black? I want it in black! 😢
You can always skin it to black!!
@@ButtonClubFGC I know, but it's already _so_ expensive. It's a luxury item in the US and I live in Brazil-for most people here, this is a month and a half's salary. I'd feel so bad buying this and having to pay extra so that I have it in a colour I like.
The only reason I'm even considering this is the clamshell design. I love my Qanba, but modding it is a pain. I'm thinking about buying an used Atrox/Panthera or fixing my TE2+.
I have both the FS and FS12. I took the FS to EVO with me. My buttons are swapped out for Qanba Gravity KS and I also have the Qanba Silent Stick on it. The combination makes for quieter sessions at night, while my wife sleeps in the next room.
Honestly, it's okay. Victrix sticks are nice but they're not the best I own. That would have to go to either of my Hori VLXs. Also, I don't like the USB port on the Victrix sticks. They seem to allow for way more wiggle than I think a $400 product should. I basically wrapped small rubber bands around my USB inputs to properly wedge them and prevent them from pulling in either direction.
Recently, I bought a Razer Kitsune. Of the leverless controllers I own, the Kitsune is without a doubt the best-way better than the FS12. For what it is, the FS12 is just far too large (at least by 2023 standards) for a leverless controller. Also, the SOCD mode on the Victrix FS12 isn't CPT legal.
Serious question: How did you travel with it, did you check it in with luggage or put it in your carry on?
@@mixmastermitch carry on. I had a backpack dedicated to the stick alone. Gaming laptop in my second carry on (in a laptop bag) so I can get some games in at the hotel. A third (duffel) bag for clothes was checked-in.
The Kitsune is going to allow me to go next year with one less bag.
Also, if you're going to do events with the Victrix, I recommend buying the shoulder strap add-on. You can basically wear it like a sling.
As someone who used both stick and leverless whats the difference between the 2? Im looking into getting one and dont know which to go with… looking into a Kitsune from razor or a Victrix Stick
@@BlackReaperXLV for me the main difference is precision. I find that leverless forces me to be accurate in all of my inputs. That and speed. There's no throw with leverless controllers, so doing things like low block reactions in Tekken are almost instantaneous. Even though I still enjoy collecting sticks I'll probably never go back to them for competitive play.
I do recommend the Kitsune over a Victrix though. For whatever reason, the buttons feel far more responsive (low profile + switches) and their larger diameter makes everything feel much more ergonomic. Couple that with the smaller, more practical, form factor and the Kitsune is a clear winner between the two.
@@ciscorey6520 thank you for this, after i commented here i did a bit more research and decided on leverless for those same reasons but i couldnt decide between the kitsune or victrix… will be getting the kitsune for sure now 👍🏾 thank you
guess the switched up most expensive and best stick on the market here
We think it’s pretty great for the quality and features. What would you consider the best stick on the market? We are always looking for content to review.
@@ButtonClubFGC Just a sour taste if you think about how unnecessarily expensive those licensed controllers are, when you can get way better bang for your buck controllers from smaller groups like haute42, controllers at around 60-100 bucks, only thing you'll need to buy extra is a converter for 50bucks if you want to play on PS5 and still end up with an equal controller if not sometimes even better, for not even 150 bucks total.
@@bansaiboy we def plan on having those on the channel at some point because I'm interested in them, and it seems like other people are as well.
why don't any of these fight sticks just come with the buttons everyone wants. Nobody ever keeps the stock buttons.
Well, you could argue that they do though. Since it comes with Sanwa parts and that's for the majority what is preferred by a larger mass of players. If they didn't have that then maybe it wouldn't be taking seriously. "$400 and it doesn't even have Sanwa parts? What a rip off!" Instead it seems more appealing to have well known and trusted brand of parts and become worth it's price. And at the end of the day, we change parts anyway to make it our own, to customize them and set it apart from the rest. It's part of the fun. Thank you for the comment and I hope my response is received well.
😼😼😼
Needs different color
If you play tekken they just released a handful of new colors at EVO Japan
@@ButtonClubFGC I prefer Virtua fighter over tekken
So lame they only have purple and white tho
They released some new Tekken color-ways if that is your game!
quality of the video doesnt match your subs +1
Best Fightstick in the market? Limited lever support, no custom artwork unless laser engraved which is pricey, no compartment for wire (Looks terrible wrapped on the top), and absolutely overpriced.
It is a good stick but no where near the best ever. An Obsidian with aluminum panel is cheaper and is a better stick overall in my opinion.
Thank you for sharing your opinion. What Qanba stick do you have or prefer?
Too long dawg
Can’t sit still for 16 minutes? 😂 yikes
the stick is nice but god damn the sanwa buttons are cheap as fuck compared to others. they are def the worst part of the stick. absolutely terrible.
Sanwa is what the majority of players look for in a new stick, luckily it's a quick and simple fix to put something you like better in it. I've been trying out the new Qanba Gravity buttons and I've really been enjoying them, what buttons do you prefer?
