That said, if you are an OG, you cut your teeth on sticks. Heavy ass, clicky sticks if you were in the US. Like most people, I've played on pads since SNES/Genesis days. Once the arcade crash came, there really wasn't a choice. In those 15+ years I got good on a pad, especially with shotos, since I never used them in the arcade. But charge characters were always ALWAYS better for me on a stick.

I can still go back and forth between the two, but given my druthers I'd go with a stick. Considering I've built 4 and have another 3 projects waiting in the wings, I'd say it's easy to see where I lean on this.
