Did anyone buy an Empathy Noir Deux?

Been looking at the photos of it every so often and think it looks cool/crazy. No idea how it plays or what people think about it since there’s no reviews anywhere about it. Curious if anyone here bought one and what they think about it. Sorta looks like an iCEBERG on steroids.

It definitely is an iceberg on steroids. It is on the bigger side of yoyos but it doesnt feel big in my hands. I do have bigger hands. And the thing is a powerhouse and it responds to whatever you want it yo do very well, so very controllable on the string. Does have a good presence on the string as well, which i personally like. The only downside to me is some of the sharper edges. Kinda makes you have to catch the yoyo a certain way so it doesnt hurt. But other than that its for sure a beast!

Dang that’s exactly what I was hoping to hear. Hopefully they come back in stock somewhere at some point. I have a Noir in the black on black color-way, but I’m so protective over it I never want to play with it lol.

Might be willing to trade mine if you have anything interesting!

Unfortunately I don’t really own any unresponsives that are around the same value or un-dinged!

I have one. I have not tried the Iceberg though but I can say that the Noir Deux plays quite heavy and stable even as a hybrid. This is probably because the rims are almost half the width of the yoyo in total. I think it is a unique yoyo and quite happy about it. :+1:
