Currently using it thick (2.0) on the forehand (F side).
The balance of speed, spin, and control is very good, so I'd recommend it for a shakehand player with long pips on the backhand who plays an attack/defense style close to the table.
(Pros)
The bounce is moderate, which makes it easy to chain drives and meet hits together close to the table.Serves — it's easy to vary the length of the course and the type of spin, which can force your opponent into receive mistakes.
The short game — as an inverted rubber, it's less affected by incoming spin, so pushes and stops are easy to do.
Control is good, so even when I'm nervous I make fewer careless mistakes, and it holds up well enough in matches that my win rate went up.
(Cons)
It's a bit slower than the Fastarc series and doesn't have the power to blow a shot past your opponent in one hit, but it's easy to work the placement and change of pace on the ball, which can draw mistakes out of your opponent.If you're a shakehand player (with long pips on the backhand) who makes a lot of forehand mistakes, or someone who values stability, I think it's worth giving Factive a try.

I use it on the backhand (B side). Medium thickness.
Stability is outstanding.
Drives are very easy to hit.
It doesn't bounce much, so stops are easier to do than pushes.
However, I get the impression that weak balls tend to go in.I'd say this is a rubber for beginners.

After trying it out, my impression is that you can play every shot consistently with this Factive. It really has no quirks and is easy to use. It's softer than I expected, so I think it's good for people aiming for stable play, like on the backhand. It's easy to put spin on, so I'd recommend it for beginners. That said, it's not really a rubber for advanced players. Still, for the price, it gets spin, produces speed, and is easy to handle, so I'd recommend it quite a bit.
If I had to name a downside, though, lifting backspin felt a little tough. Still, I think it's a rubber that can help you improve your technique. So since it's easy to use, I'd recommend it to beginners and people who are just starting out.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

My first impression was that it's a rubber with very few quirks and it's easy to use. Blocking in particular was easy. I'd recommend it for kids just starting out in table tennis, or anyone who can't hit hard shots yet. I thought it was ideal for learning attacking techniques like drives and smashes. Also, when used on the backhand it's very stable, and I thought it was ideal for mastering attacking techniques like blocks, flicks, chiquitas, and stops. Also, when used on the backhand it's very stable, and it's well suited for mastering basic techniques like blocks, flicks, chiquita, stops, and pushes. On the forehand, if you want to smash powerful drives, I think the amount of spin falls a bit short.

I have it on my forehand.
Control is good and it gets plenty of spin, so it's great for an aggressive chopper.
Forehand chops bounce quite a bit at first, but you get used to it, and drive power is outstanding too.
I'm not sure if it's the rubber's doing, but sometimes an unbelievably sharp, low chop comes out automatically right off the table.
I'd recommend it to aggressive choppers who don't like tacky rubber.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Easy to block with. If you just get the angle right it generally goes in, so if you're not sure which rubber to choose, I think this is a good one to go with.

Control is the best there is.
Drive stability is really great.
It was easier to use than Fly At Spin. (Fly At Spin was easier for flicking against backspin.)
It's excellent on both forehand and backhand. Since it's soft, I'd recommend backhand for advanced players, and forehand or both sides for intermediate players. I use it on both sides.
I switched my blade from the Kasumi Basic to the Kasumi Special, and Factive matches well with both.
(I haven't tried Factive Carbon, but I think it would match well too.)
There's also a Factive Guard side tape. It looks really cool.
The pink-black one especially looks great.
I'd particularly recommend Factive to intermediate players.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
