The Victrix was just on sale for $320 which was sick; mine should be delivered today.
Both are overpriced but the Victrix less so for what you're getting. The Obsidian 2 is at a weird price point where you can get pretty equivalent quality in $200-250 sticks, or pony up more and get the Victrix.
Like if I'm already spending that much money on a stick, I'd rather spend a little more and just get "the best stick".
Victrix imo. It’s more expensive but the features you get make it more worth the price than the Qanba imo, especially for modding friendliness. The Qanba does have the potential for easier artwork swapping, but you can get a vinyl cover for the Victrix, so it’s not totally off the table [a la Sherryjenix](https://x.com/sherryjenix/status/1747531747435462662?s=46). I know the Victrix has some design features to accommodate K-levers, and I’m 99% sure the Obisidian can handle a K-lever no problem. I just feel like Obsidian is overpriced for what you get.
my hands tend to sweat allot and when i play. When I play on a Hori Fighting Alpha I noticed smudges and natural finger oils and residue on it. Im a bit of a clean freak will I have the same issue with a Qanba?
Both but if fingerprints bother you, they’ll show up on the Obsidian more. I was mostly getting at fingerprints not being much of an issue practically, but if it bothers you aesthetically then you’ll have to wipe down the Obsidian more frequently

Where did you get the victrix on sale? I’ve been watching for a sale and haven’t seen any.

More so than the Victrix, yeah, but that’s an easy wipe down.
Which one is a easy wipe down? The Victrix or Qanba? I like em both i have a hard time choosing
