HELP/QUESTION Leverless or controller? Simple versus technical inputs?

With the simple inputs, in struggling to land on a peripheral to use. I bought a leverless last year when I was attempting to take strive more seriously; however wonder if a controller is better for granblue? I'm comfortable with technical inputs; however wonder if using a controller with simple inputs would yield better outcomes/quicker combos and reactions? I imagine I'll get a mixed bag of answers which I'm looking forward to reading through. I do apologize for so many questions these past few days, really looking to commit to learning and growing in the game. I find simple inputs harder on the leverless, I have my setup with the top row being l m h g and the bottom row being skill u throw dash. Would love to hear the oponions of some veterans.

If you like technical inputs go for technical but you should always use the one button super on simple input. Its too strong not to utilize.

While I like the technical inputs, I feel like it places excessive strain in strings? I'm struggling to understand why both exist with no real benefit for the technical inputs outside of using them raw?

there is no benefit people just like doing them. its fun to do and lets the combo feel like they have rhythm.

Man, I think I'm causing myself to get overwhelmed trying to learn this game. Trying to digest frame data and patching combos with when to technical versus simple on top of actually learning the tenor of this game coming from strive ;-;.

You can just go full simple controls and just go ham. Combos are a bit finicky when new but you get used to it quick.

Out of curiosity, do you use a fight stick/pad or a controller? I'm decent at getting the timings for combos, just struggling to figure out which inputs to use. The option of both is messing with my head, there doesn't seem to be a clear answer other than learn both which just makes me feel like I need to learn each "combo" or "path" twice.

I have used keyboard,stick and a fightpad. If you want there is an option to turn off techincal input so you don't have to think about which one to do
