What's new

Any pad players that can play for a long time? My thumb is shot

have we played together in the past? I seen so many C88 on injustice ranked. I just picked up MK9 yesterday from my buddy to let me borrow and see if I like the game, so far I love it compared to injustice, but Injustice is newer so it'll probably have a longer life. I just wish Injustice had characters I was interested in like, Robin, Beast Boy, or Starfire. The cast is so meh to me.
Injustice does have the Robin of Teen Titans: Dick Grayson. He is Nightwing here.
Do I get some sort of stress ball and just go to down before gaming?
I stretch my wrists and fingers. It is rather difficult to explain through text.
no pad for me :( go hitbox and thank me later
That's Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in the background.

And damn, that thumb doesn't look pretty! D:

Geez dude! I'm sorry. :( I hope you have some epic story to go with it like you were fighting a t-rex or something.

Dont worry, I cut my thumb open with a butter knife as a kid.. trying to slice open an ORANGE. FML. thank the lord I didn't need stitches though...


16 stitches for me. and i got a drunk ass doctor with a pickled nose who couldn't even answer how many he put in... "how many stitches did i get?" "i dunno, count 'em"

Yeah, but that isn't the same... I want a mobile robin with a staff, like how aquaman has his trident and can still jump normally, lol.

Beast boy and starfire would be my ideal chars though. I really enjoyed Teen Titans growing up.

I've spent my whole life playing on pad, I have iron thumbs!
I switched between pad and stick and was a stick player for a good year or so, but then stopped playing fighting games bc no one around me played anymore so when I tried to get back onto it, it was BAD. T_T And it just seems so inconvenient to have to carry a stick around places to play.

I'm just wondering if any pad players share my problem of playing too long for one day and the next few days being incapable of playing for longer than a few matches? My thumb that is used for the pad is beyond tender and sore and was wondering if it will get better with time or should I just switch to stick?
I recommend you to use a wool glove, I mean not a full wool glove but just cut the thumb from the glove and put it in your left thumb, problem solved, it will let you play the game without problems and your thumb will feel great, I use it everytime I play fighting games because ps3 controller and a lot of other sucks and hurt your thumb too much so you can't play more than an hour without feeling uncomfortable. Yes, I said wool glove thumb finger cut off, yes I'm crazy but it works for me. :coffee:.

Hahahaha, I was joking of course :p, let me recommend you to read Shingeki no Kyojin, its not a book, its a manga, but a VERY VERY entertaining manga. Sorry for the off topic but I always wanted to post that meme so I didnt waste the opportunity :oops:.
