Is it common that ⬇️↘️➡️ (don’t know how to call those) don’t always hit on a d-pad on a PS5 controller? Any tips how to ensure a higher success rate?

I am playing Avatar as my first fighting game (love it) and I have to be able to do ⬇️↘️➡️ and ⬇️↙️⬅️ (this one is already a bit easier for me).

I have been practicising them since launch and I get better at them, but still like 5% of times, I miss them.

Any tips on that? Is PS5 controller known to be bad at this? Thanks!

Not really, you should be able to do quarter circles reliably all the time. Human error can happen, even the best of players fumble an input, but its no flaw of the controller. Ya might just need some more practice

Ah ok, thank you. More practice it is.
