Wierd quistion. But whenever I look for a new flagship compitition model I ussuly looks for the latest and newest models. But now days I see some people choosing older models over the newer models. So just wanted to see how many people still use old models and who pick old model over the Ena one. For example angel0 and Togo katsudo chose the edge 3m. 0 over the edge 4.0.idk I’m jsut curiose
