I enjoy the little things in life, so in this video, I discuss the 3 height tiers of KontrolFreek. I MIGHT make a video discussing Concave VS Convex in the future, but I currently have far too many projects that are unfinished. Once I get all my planned videos out of the way, I'll definitely be doing some more KontrolFreek content!

@@vCuda hey buddy! Love your content and appreciate your good work. So first you got me using my elite 2 controller high stick, 👍 though the controller it's self is the most fucking unreliable pos ever, I swear bestbuy is running out because the last 3 have all had stick drift within the 30 day return policy and I keep looking for that unique unicorn that lasts a minute, ANYWAYS I need some advice. I want to buy some kontrolfreeks. I want the rings but I would also like a stick. I was thinking high rise on my normal elite stick with the ring so the rings don't slide up or the high elite stick with more rings underneath so again they don't rise. Which is the better option as I have never seen either in person so I don't know how many rings I would need for a high elite stick and would a high stick with a low rise freek give me the best option? Not to high but nice and wide? I notice a lot of the high rise freaks look like shit or have shit designs. I'd like a elite high stick with that black low rise freak you said was comfy but will 2 or 3 disks actually fit well under the elite tall stick without either still sliding up or popping my stick off the controller. Fml

I have VERY bad nerve damage in my left hand (From a broken neck) and my left thumb does not work very well, the only way i can still play is by using the Kontrol Freaks High rise and it allows me to use more of my hand instead of just my thumb, it is weird to explain but i LOVE them. The one i am using is the green MW-2 Performance thumb sticks and they saved what little gaming i am able to do for a while.

Convex sticks allow you to roll your finger on the stick and make it easier for some people to aim at long range.

@Mullet345 2 года назад

They really should make some more LowRise sets so that we have more variety to choose from instead of only having a choice out of Alpha and Omni. Personally I want to see a LowRise version of the FPSFreek Inferno thumbstick get made that is for PS4/5 and XBox One/Series X (the Turbo set they released a few years ago is the closest one to it, but was only for Switch JoyCons).

@NeoGeo822 2 года назад

The ps4 control has a hybrid tumstick design and that's one of the cons of the controller. It gets slippery. The tire tread on the Xbox is far better with it's grip but honestly the Nintendo switch pro controller feels the best for me because it's flat but has a ton of grip.

@BryanGQ593 2 года назад

@thanasis-_- 2 года назад

With concave you Pull the stick and with convex you push the stick i think it is personal preference

@caseyhall2320 2 года назад

For me, I've got clam hands. So if the convex tipped sticks are made of not-so-grippy material, they become unusable for me. Despite being easier on the fingers when playing for long hours. For example, PlayStation 1 and 2 controllers. I always had difficulty using them as soon as my hands started sweating 😂.

@jt.hudgens7156 5 месяцев назад

Low rise feels the best for me, the extra grip and wider cap helps me aim in close range. Because it’s not as tall you get less leverage which keeps your stick tension higher. So I’m my opinion low rise is the best all round

@HeartInLight Год назад

I have some mid and high rise. High rise, is just uncomfortable as all hell. And feels like its going to ruin your thumb if you play alot. Mid rise is just right. It takes some getting used to as you're moving your thumb differently than normal. And your body isnt used to it. But it does make a signifigant difference on accuracy. And the wideness and grip of it, is great. I do recommend the mid rise. I buy the galaxies and only use the mid rise on the right stick. Cause for grip and feel. Its the most popular they make, and for good reason. They really do enhance your game in fps games with some practice. They also usually only come in purple and white...bleh. But they have some limited edition black ones right now. I ordered 2. Cause Iv been using them for quite some time. And havent worn any out yet. Pro tip. If they're getting slippery. Get yourself some dawn and a gentle pipe cleaner. And clean all the oil and finger gunk off of them. And they'll feel even gripper and better than if they were new. Cheers!

I use low-rise on my left stick so it doesn't wear out and it gives better grip, only downside is that you want minimal height for responsiveness.

I used to use the galaxy, but fell in love with vortex
