I appreciate that. I just think we’re not quite on the same page when it comes to value, which is fine.

Prediction : Mono Pheasant “S - tier”.
Disagree with the power rating but to be fair when you pair slippy pads + short string it fails, even with longer string and slippy pads its not great. Fix that up and its v solid on power.

Comp-oriented but it doesn’t necessarily feel like it. Super pleasant. A little odd to control, but similar to the Equanimity in that once you get control it’s great. Different playfeel than the Equanimity tho. Light feeling, nice. UNREAL value for a Ti. Idk how to assess the value of this lol.
Play: Competitive
Power: Powerful
Speed: Average
Controllability: Difficult
Stability: Average
Value: Average(?) (Insane for Ti)
Bind: Inconsistent (Pads needed to be swapped)

Curious your thoughts on the baryon if you ever get around to it. Been debating on getting one of those instead of replacing my goodlife valley I stripped unfortunately.
I’m curious your thoughts on the miracle when you get around to it. Material choice is different and they seem to get posted super discounted on bst.

The best tech yoyo on the market rn. Not great for much else. Not great for zontals, not great for speed, not great for zoning. Extremely wide gap so super slippy. Pure tech yoyoers rejoice. It has power but the weight distro doesn’t really lend it well to where power tends to come in clutch for things like zontals and zoning. 180 bones for 6061 + SS is brutal. Fun to use though, so overall a pleasant yoyo. 12mm Axle is rad as well.

$250 for 6061 + SS bimetal LMAO. It’s nice, feels comfy, and has extremely good control. Weird effect where it felt really pleasant and maneuverable for normal play, but reluctant during zontals. Very much a tech yoyo tho. 15mm axle is insane though.

Flatout generalist bimetal that can be described in one word. “Good”. Good at everything. Benchmark Bimetal I think for anyone that wants a yoyo that’s just flat-out good. Could be higher if it really stuck out or was particularly good in any category. A bit much for a benchmark though.

The correct specs is 54.5mm in diameter and 66 gram in weight. Some of the specs is just copy and paste from older version on yyr site. Yoyonest and spingear have it accurately

Several sources have it at 55mm dia, some have it at 55.5mm dia, its specs are just kinda odd wherever I look.
@merlewu I’ve played monotone, but I forgot to write down my thoughts on it. I don’t remember it being particularly great.

TP has the ASTer and MSG, YYR has the Bae and Toru 0.999. They’re really really similar yoyos. A little more maneuverable and “hollow” feeling than the Bae. A hair less generalized. More snaggy than the Bae tho.
