I have Offset Deviant Yoyo. My Yoyo Has become Responsive, I cleaned the bearing 4 - 5 times still no difference, I Cleaned It With Lighter Fluid plus The paper cleaning method and applied lube also still when I Tug On it, it comes back to my hand, And i noticed whenever i tug the yoyo, the string wraps around the yoyo causing coming back to my hand,

Apply lube can be the answer, sometimes even a minuscule drop of lube can make the yoyo responsive at least until it break in inside the bearing which will require a bit.

Did you tried with another bearing or without lube? It can also be that the bearing is broken and needs to be replaced

Sounds like too much lube. Try it with no lube at all. Should be fine.

Threads like these are strong evidence that all yoyos really believe that responsive is their true destiny.
