Guilty Gear Strive JLF/JLX special parts variant joystick

Guilty Gear Strive (GGST) has been and continues to be, a popular casual fighting game and competitive pro-gamer entry to the series. Requiring a dedication to precise command inputs and combo strings has created a community of players demanding a lever that will facilitate this playstyle. 

To this end, countless Japanese fans report a high degree of success with a lightly modded JLF/JLX joystick. A slightly stiffer spring than standard allows an immediate relative familiarity in feedback and feel of the shaft response - compared to an unmodded lever. In addition, the spring characteristics give confidence in linear movement firmness and rebound. A squared circle restrictor gate is chosen to permit a similar performance ethos, in that the rounded square edges are not completely unfamiliar from a standard square restrictor.

Based on Japanese player feedback, the result yields an upgrade to activation of quarter and half circle commands and prevents missed inputs. This joystick will suit those gamers new to fighting games and joystick optimisation, as well as confident well-trained enthusiasts looking for reliable, predictable and familiar performance.
