My JLF is so customized it's so much better performing than the standard. -Made my own shorter stainless steel shaft 8mm shorter -made my own oversized aluminium actuator -squircle restrictor gate -higher tension steel spring -made my own delrin oversized bat top 35mm diameter I just don't see if any improvement will be made if i get the JLX.
Well i would say the only improvements you will get the JLX are the smoother pivot and the metal ring washer not popping off. But i agree lol to be honest id rather use a JLF over the JLX but i messed up my JLF
@@imangolix7235 the metal ring popping out is usually cause by: -installed upside down -too much silicone grease on between the ring and the plastic base. Either one or both. Hmmm... That's it, i forgot to get the stainless steel pivot! Thx for reminding me.
I have the Sanwa JLF joystick mod it with the Otto V5 kit with larger actuator and added an Otto Stainless Steel Core With a 3 lb. spring. And it is a big improvement over standard JLF. I like a bigger actuator because it removes a lot of dead space.If you compare a Happ or Il stick it has hardly any dead space with a nice back to center snap which a lot gamers prefer. It will take a little time to adjust to it. Most professional gamers use bigger actuators stiffer springs in their joysticks to remove dead space and makes quicker moves. Thanks for the great review.
Your movement on P2 side is amazing . Can you make a backdash vid for Tekken using the JLF/JLX? It looks as if the Japanese lever is more responsive than the Korean lever!!
Damn bro, which lever you were using at the intro? Could you please do a tutorial on EGWF? I've been practicing it but I can only do 3 maximum using a Korean lever. great video btw.
@@damonlove8 Sanwa JLF with phreakmods link. Im not the best at explaining things so idk if i want to do a ewgf tutorial. But there are tons of ewgf tutorials alrdy out there like with TheMainManSWE
Yes it fits on this stick but you would have to bend the pins.I recommend you watch JoystickNYC's review on the Qanba Drone 2. He showed a bunch of levers that fit on the Drone 2 including the Knee lever (version 1).
@@imangolix7235 hmmmm 🤔 there's not much difference in the return to neutral then? Probably that actuator is the main selling point for the JLX if there's no difference feel wise for the JLF and JLX. And the only reason to point out about the actiator is that since its around 16mm its usually the same or ideal actuator size for tekken, since thats the same size as my 309MJ NewHelpMe korean lever
@@petekaiser i dont think the return to neutral is any different at least from my experience. Does feel smoother by a bit but feeling wise its just the same except for the actuator. Also did not know that a 16mm actuator is the ideal size for tekken, thats pretty interesting. Gonna look at some actuator sizes on korean levers now lol.
@@imangolix7235 the usual size being used is normally under that size there are 15mm to 16mm size but what usually is used based on the people i talk and spar with locally is 16mm. And the feeling is a little precise specially when it comes using mishimas as well. For example in T7 i have much more acurate feel when performing heihachi's OTGF due to the actuator being bigger and touching the switches earlier as opposed to the smaller actuator
@@petekaiser I can definitely see that. I guess i just got more used to the sanwa jlf actuator, but since it is smaller my inputs are a bit more precise compared to the JLX actuator. I'd say both are good tho and i can still play relatively the same.
@@imangolix7235 I own 2 of the V5 kits. I can say it IS worth the extra. The round-square gate alone is more than worth the cost! Also the body is more durable, and is a solid piece, so no extra parts sliding around - So less of that "I swear I did the thing, but I guess not"
@@imangolix7235 I completely swapped to using k levers even for 2d games but when i was using the jlf i converted it with the otto v2 and spring delete mod and it was a totally different lever, a nice in between of korean and japanese levers.
@@alvinkim1305 i mainly use my wrist and fingers with a little bit of help from my arm when doing motions. Hopefully that made sense lol. But yeah my hand just rests on the stick.
@@imangolix7235 This video alone after 3 years of Mishima stick practice helped me do 2 EWGFs in the most quickest succession I could ever do comfortably and quite consistently. You should make a video with the title, "Tekken Mishima skills on stick." I'm sure you'll get lots of views and likes because not a lot of people with japanese levers do those vids.
@@alvinkim1305 Lol thats awesome. I dont really care much for views but i might consider it. But if you havent already seen it, themainman has a video on that same topic where does mishima stuff whilst demonstrating hand motions. He is also on a japanese lever

Are you using a heavier spring on the JLX? Or rather what is the spring tension on the JLX?
I am using stock spring. I believe it is the same stock spring as the JLF stock spring
