Hardest Characters to play using a HITBOX/ HITBOX Discussion

It seems to me that most MK players use a pad. Some use a stick. Players like Tyrant (Jax) have had much success with a Hitbox, however. I main Quan Chi, use a Hitbox, and have been in the lab trying to learn Tremor. It has occurred to me that doing the Stone Punch variations (db2, db2 u, db2 d) has proved a little challenging.
What do you guys think? What characters are the hardest to play with a Hitbox? Non-Hitbox users welcome to chime in!

If people care enough, cite some reasons why and I'll include them in the OP.

Tremor: Special moves with different variations based on inputs (db1 u, db1 d, etc)
Shinnok: F4 into hellsparks
Goro: Shokan Grab dbf3
Ferra/Torr: Deep Stab/ Little Cutter dbf1
Erron Black: Sand Trap dbf2
Kitana: Instant air fans

I never seen a hitbox before, so when I looked at the picture im like, "Where's the analog stick?" Lol Could you explain how those things work

I use one and I believe it helps with every type of input. Oftentimes the problem is that you're doing things too fast because of the efficiency. For strings like the ones you're describing try slowing down the last up or down directional input.

That was my problem when confirming f4 into Hell Sparks with Shinnok.

Reasonable, but moves like Stone Shatter (db1, db1 u, db1 d) at the end of a string like f121 have to be pretty on point.

I actually wanna buy one of these just to see if it helps my speed with some inputs, but I heard PS4 doesn't support hitbox and places a 10min time limit on it or some shit.

I believe it does not work on every game. However, exclusively to MKX (and maybe other games) on a PS4, they detect as legacy controllers. I use one when I play on PS4 (I use the PS3/PC version), and I don't have issues with any time limit. You just have to have a regular controller to be connected then connect the Hitbox.

games with the lab-zero driver (MKX, Skullgirls) will support them without the time-out, you just need a ds4 synced up

Yomi Zyphox uses hitbox for that crazy flame fist he dose...

Also, I agree with the OP, I use HitBox and I think Tremor is the hardest of the roster.

Also, they have a actual ps4 one now, not a ps3 one with the time out.

I don't care I'm not a competitive player anymore
I've been on hitbox for a little over a week, and I'm a Shinnok main. After about a day, I was landing F4 cancels every time. I came from stick, and its a really odd transition, but I think Shinnok is more capable with a hitbox, especially imposter.
