Fight/Arcade Stick - Lap or Desk?

[Lechuck's Beard]

Just curious to see what you all prefer and any reasons for/against each setting.

I almost always place it on my lap, but recently switched to the desktop as I am trying to learn to wavedash and KBD on the stick....bloody frustrating for sure. Reason I opted for desk for this exercise was I figured it would be a little easier/accurate.

Anyhoo, I would like to hear what you guys do, especially the vets.

On my lap due to muscle memory. There are times where there is no desk to place it, but aside from some horrific accident, I will always have my lap.

Lap because I sit in a semi-recliner type chair in front of the TV

I thought I would prefer my stick on my desk in front and up a bit higher, but it turns out I find it much more comfortable and find the mishima inputs easier with the stick on my lap.

Lap for me.

You must mount it to a podium or for maximum arcade realism an old broken down arcade cabinet :)

lap. my desk is to high and I realized the stress on my wrists building up when I tried it.

Kinda like the stick being high on the desk, feels good for some of the movements.

If you want to improve your movement it has to be on your lap unless you feel confortable enough using it on your desk but if you just play for fun or offline it doesn't matter really
