JLF GT-Y Octagonal Restrictor Plate Insert

Write A Review

1. Good gate hard to provide solid rating

   I recently replaced my square gate insert on my old hori mvc stick jlf with this octo gate Insert the range of motion is nice but does not have responsiveness the square gate had never changed the actuator that could be a factor but I began to appreciate the square gate more tried hayabusa stick and now feel hayabusa is far superior to jlf and it was the octo that lead me down that road lol Unknown on Sep 11th 2016

2. Great product

   This is what i needed I really like octagonal gates and this works great. Guzman on Aug 26th 2016

3. great product but..

   this fits my MADCATZ TE2 perfectly. QCF &"Z" motions are easier to pull off but my movement is really restricted on the corners only 6%. i'v watched YT videos on restricter plate movement percentage but i wanted to try it out either way. depending on what kind of character you play this might or might not workout for you. i play charge characters so this plate did work out for me. maybe with command characters this would work Luis on Jul 4th 2016

5. Great product

   Simple to install, cheap, and I feel it helped with my execution. Hernan Rangel on Mar 24th 2016

6. Struggling with a square gate? This might be your answer!

   I'm a new fightstick user, and I finally got use to playing with a square gate, but my execution wasn't consistent, especially in high pressure situations. After using this inexpensive and easy-to-install, 8-way gate insert, but execution has vastly improved. I cannot say it will do the same for you, but if you're having trouble performing quarter/half circle motions consistently, give this a try.
   
   Like what Mike Harris said in a previous review, you can still play a charge character using this 8-way gate, although, I did find it easier playing them using a square gate, so I guess it depends what characters you use in your chosen fighting game.
   
   Highly recommended! eljaykooljay on Mar 22nd 2016

7. The best work around for whole octagonal gate!

   Ok then the title says it all the best work around it seem like the comming of 5 means most popular hardware for fightsticks are on back order. The information given for modding fightsticks is plentiful so do your research and you will find this wonderful cheap product that will help you mod and bring your game up to proper levels. All I can say is this works and easy to install it's not a gold color but you can't see it once it is installed but you can feel it.My execution is significantly increased over the stock square gate that came with my TE2+ ps4 so dont miss out and order more then one not because they fail but because you will want this product in all of your fightsticks. And once fighters all over the world learn how easy these are to install this item will be on back order as well. So order install and be amazed and for Gods sake rise up and fight I am better then I was with a square gate order this and get the execution without the cost and backorder problems!

8. Awesome for Shoto characters and just in general

   The octagonal gate was a breeze to install on my MadCatz TE 2 fightstick. It works as designed and I've gotten much better at throwing fireballs and doing other quarter circle moves. You can feel the octo points on the gate and I like it more than square gates where I felt like I was being blocked from completing movements. I highly recommend this even if you're just starting out with an arcade stick. Regardless of what people say you can still use charge type characters with this gate. Enjoy the freedom of movement!

10. Perfect replacement for old 4/8 gate

    LOVE this insert! Its a perfect and easy way to transform the 4/8 gate into the far more flexible octagon. Ed at Edladdin Controllers on Oct 30th 2015
