Good blade, but not great. It is for allround play with more offensive actions.

I bought this bat, played with it around 20 hrs.
It's more of a defensive bat than an offensive by any means.
its a slow bat I would give it 7-8 for speed, but with excellent control, the ball tends to go where ever you want it to go, excellent at blocking what ever the speed and the spin your opponent is using in his attack the ball tends to go back on the table.
But this is all some how on speed; when you attack your ball returns are slow which gives your opponent time to recover and react to it.

It is also great at playing mid distance to the table, where your loops go with considerable force and what ever you do it tends to go on the table not out.

Another thing is that it is worse, at returning underspin with top spin, it lacks the tinge of speed that the faster blades offer so you have a realllly hard time with that.
Best regards:

Nice Off-/All+ blade. Vibration free with a large sweet spot. Like a carbon blade, but a bit slower with better touch.

Not a fast blade, but fast enough for me to hit winners. Not a slow blade, but slow enough to return serve.

Large sweet spot, vibration free, feels like a slow carbon blade. It's a little thicker than I would like, and the head is a little too small, smaller than average...
