Ok never mind.  
The Isotope 2 was used to win JP regionals and the Palpitation was roughly the same but refined for his play and used in Worlds

Honestly, there shouldn’t be a big difference between the two.

The real question is “Will it make you better if you get one?”

Takeshi used the palpitation for 1a. I assume he prefers it.

He used a leviathan 5 for 5a I think.

Palp is probably-definitively better than shake.  
Don’t get me wrong, i love my Shake so much, but newer dosen’t always mean better 🙂
