Are fighting games better on keyboard?

Yes, fighting games are generally better on a keyboard than a controller, assuming you are using a WASD controller. A WASD controller is a combination of a keyboard and an arcade stick.

On the right side of a WASD controller, you may find your standard arcade buttons. On the left, however, you may find keyboard keys in WASD format.

Why WASD Controllers Are Good

WASD controllers retain most of the benefits of an arcade stick while still allowing you to enjoy the best aspect of keyboards, which is the directional keys.

We are not claiming that directional keys are superior to joysticks or vice versa. We are simply assuming that you like keyboards but want to elevate your game.

A WASD controller is a logical upgrade so you do not feel incredibly disoriented. You may want to check out our list of the top WASD controllers to see which one you like.
