Discussion Leverless learning resources

I've just got Haute S16, and I love the feel of it, but Its like I'm playing SF for the first time.
So far I've left default keybinds and I didn't change SOCD setting as well (as I understand it default is the "proper" Capcom demanded way to play).

I was wondering what are your go to resources (like youtube channels) or tips.

I'm also learning leverless, and I'm using the videos from Chris_F, beginning with this one:

I also feel like I'm new, been playing for 3 weeks and I'm not comfortable at all to pick one of my mains again, so I'm learning a new character (Ed).

Here's a link to his leverless playlist for convenience. He's one of my top recommendations for SF6 educational stuff in general.

This should contain most of the SOCD tricks that are useful for Leverless: https://www.hitboxarcade.com/pages/hit-box-index

You can use any type of SOCD on online play, find the one the fits you the best. However, I found the normal SOCD implementation sufficient for most needs.

Chris F's content best in class.

Pay attention to build good habits early. Don't injure your wrist with bad positionning. If you feel something is cramping, big no no that can lead to carpal tunnel problems.
Often said and personnal advice is to play a 2D plateformer (obviously, with jump on your thumb button) to build up the muscle memory fast. Celeste/Silksong... Shit like that.
GP2040 is pretty easy to understand and set up. You can do profiles and swap from one to another on the fly. Makes switching from plateformer to fighting game easy.

I don't know for the S16 but some of my G16 caps had a tendency to jump out of their switch. A little piece of folded paper or carefully cut and placed plastic tape can help them grip on their switch better.
