This rubber doesn't feel very tacky. Rather than the third-ball attack off a serve being great, I found the rallies after that easier to play. It's such a new kind of rubber that even I, someone who isn't a tacky-rubber user, felt like I could handle it.
For serves, the crouching serve is easy to do, probably because it's easy to put power into the swing. For a toss serve, a regular tension rubber is easier to use. Drives felt really easy to hit. In particular, the ball sinks into the sponge easily, so it was easy to generate power. Smashes came out with that knuckle-ball effect unique to tacky rubbers, making them hard for opponents to return. Chops were also easy to do. It has a moderate bounce, so attacking off a chop was easy too. For mid-distance play, even though the bounce is moderate, it's still tacky rubber so it was hard to use. In particular, counters off a lob often didn't reach the table. In the short game, it's affected a bit by incoming spin, so flicks and chiquitas were hard, but stops and pushes had good spin and felt great.
This rubber is easy to put spin on and has a moderate bounce, so I'd recommend it to choppers who also want to attack, players who struggle to generate spin, and tacky-rubber users who want to move toward tension rubber.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

This is my impression after borrowing and trying out the first blade a friend of mine ever bought.
First, as the title suggests, it's a blade focused on extreme stability. It really doesn't fly at all. I use a Duraangle myself, and the rubber is different too, but even accounting for that, this one just doesn't fly. Chops go in like crazy. Drives go in like crazy too. Any close-to-the-table technique goes in easily. But once you step back, it doesn't fly at all, which makes it hard to use. Countering off a lob is probably the hardest thing to do with it.
The offense-defense balance is good, and it holds the ball reasonably well. Spin isn't great, but you can push through with speed. Putting pips or a variable short-pips rubber on the backhand is also a good option.
This could be good for someone switching blades for the first time, players with a close-to-the-table all-round style, or even choppers. Something like Tibhar Grass in pips suits it best.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Hard

This blade doesn't bounce much. And while it's stable, it lacks power. Because of that, fine techniques like the short game are easy to do, but bigger strokes like topspin rallies, lobs, chops, and counters are harder to pull off. Also, it makes a hollow, knocking sound off the ball, which bugged me a bit.
I'd recommend it for close-to-the-table quick-attack players.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

As the title says, this rubber is a real all-rounder.
First off, there's almost no technique it struggles with. It's truly all-around. If there's one thing, it's topspin rallies - it's a bit hard to get distance on the ball. Other than that, everything's easy. The short game stays nice and short on the table. It's also easy to vary the spin on your serves. Drives are a little hard to brush, but they still get solid spin. Flicking is also easy. And control is good, so it's easy to aim for specific courses.
While this rubber is an all-rounder, it doesn't have a standout feature, and it also lacks a real finishing punch, so it might not suit players who want to hammer away with power drives. Also, the feel is unique and it can't really be said to hold the ball well. So I think it's a good choice as a first tension rubber. I'd also recommend it for choppers.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I'd like to focus this time on things I couldn't figure out at the time of my previous review.
First, this blade can do everything. It gets decent distance and has good control, so you can compete from anywhere on the court. If you hit a drive hard enough to bring out the carbon, it comes out flat and fast with real power, and drills right into the table. On the other hand, if you go for a more rolling, stability-focused drive, you still get a nice arc with solid spin. Smashes have real power when you bring out the carbon, and are more stable when you don't. Serves bite well, and long serves land consistently too. The short game is also easy to play.
From mid-distance you can still compete since you get decent distance on your shots, though sometimes you'll get out-hit. Lobbing is possible too, and you can go for a counter off a lob if you want.
It can do everything, but power only comes out if you really hit through the ball, so that can feel a bit lacking. I'd recommend it for players with a lot of power who struggle to control it, or for close-to-the-table attacking players.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft
