These have both been on my list of wants for quite some time. The valor is definitely drawing me in a bit more, but I do love the double sight line version of the Format:C. I hope to one day own both, but for anyone who has played both, can you offer an opinion/recommendation?

Valor.
Format: C has that “hollow” feeling that some 7075 throws have. Valor just “feels” better, and I think it’s largely just a better design.
Format was nice, but the Valor made me say “whoa, that’s really nice”.
My $.02

I definitely preferred the Valor out of the two.
I also preferred the Benchmark V over the Format: C.
Similarly I really want to try a Gradient, the shape just seems to cover a lot of ground.
Gradient!!!
I own them both, and would have to advise you to try the Valor first.
They are both excellent YoYo’s, and I own several of each, but I would start with the Valor for sure.
The Format C: is a solid smooth YoYo for sure. It feels a bit heavier than the Valor, and I love mine but the Valor is without doubt my favorite One Drop YoYo.
I get the feeling that the folks at One Drop were not even aware of how special a YoYo they had designed at first with the Valor. It’s a YoYo that has quickly picked up momentum as more and more people have had the opportunity to try one.
The Valor is truly a very special design and I would recommend it highly. (If you can find one)
Valor all day errday. I’ve owned both. I still own the Valor and it’s going to stay that way. 
I’ve heard nothing but praise for the valor
I love my Valor!
