Box / Rectangle [⠝⠒⠻]

Resources#

• My current box I play on is LBX by Junkfood Arcades (Discontinued). I would recommend it, but they don't make it anymore, and mine broke.
• I built a DIY Box at one point, see doc here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ghh1K2DEtPpqfF3jOtAsY1XcohuA7enjkYF7_MLG39k/edit?#heading=h.qkq85fhrrorr

My Switching Process#

• How long did it take you to switch?
• I switched in March 2022 on a borrowed F1 Heavy. I have never since played on a traditional Gamecube controller
• I started training by playing the 1 player event matches. Once I was able to beat the first 30 or so, I moved onto unranked mode.
• I went from there, entering tournaments and playing ranked.
• At this point I'm fully switched

My problem with standard-profile key switches#

• ‘Standard profile' refers to the height required to push your key switch (button) down to register a press. This is opposed to ‘low-profile’ key switches which I prefer.
• This video has a good overview: Why Switches might not be optimal for Super Smash Brothers Melee!. TLDR: the high actuation points of non-low-profile switches may not lend itself well to melee, particularly when trying to quickly release an input (shorthopping is hard on standard-profile).
