I think it delivers the advertised “great hand-feel, floaty play, and also great spin times”. I prefer the flattened off rims over the angles on the Terrerians, Free Solo etc. It’s a shade heavier, but I think the design uses the weight well, i.e. spin power without feeling heavy. ---

Seems our local hype beasts are just waiting on the cerakote finish 😆 I love mine, this thing plays like its on rails with those flat rims. Very stable, stays in plane into low RPM **much** better than many of my other throws, which might be my favorite characteristic of this throw. I’m a big fan of the weight, does not feel heavy to me, and it has awesome presence on the string. Great yoyo! ---

Im a fan! Plays well and doesn’t feel heavy on the string. My Rose/Charcoal Wyvern is one of, if not the, best looking throw in my collection. ---

I’ve been on the fence with the Wyvern as well but it sounds like it’s typical OD goodness so I’m in lol ---

Typical OD stuff, smooth, floaty? I know the Wyvern is a little heavier but I like that I was wondering if it felt that way? ---

Just picked one up. (Thank you @yoyoretro) It has quickly become my favorite yoyo. Buuut, I am a little biased because I nabbed one of the cerakote green ones and I love playing under black light. Still, it is a great yoyo in its own right. Most of my collection are bimetals, but I don’t feel like I am missing any rim weight with it. It can handle any trick I put it through. It doesn’t feel too heavy to me. It feels lighter that the specs say. I wouldn’t say it feels floaty though. Definitely doesn’t float as much as something like an MCMO, which really isn’t “light” per se, but feels floatier. I’ve thrown a free solo once, but don’t own one. I like the Wyvern better. But that’s an extremely limited impression. I’ve found on numerous occasions that I’ve had lackluster first impressions with yoyos that I have later grew fond of after spending more time with it. Shutter EVO… thought it was overhyped. Spent several days playing nothing else, now I love it. So hard to describe this subjective hobby of ours lol. ---

Thanks for the insight. Yes I agree this hobby is so subjective but extra descriptions help a great deal. ---

Love it- can’t recommend it enough. I do however find myself going towards the Free Solo more- but if you pick either one you can’t go wrong. You really can’t go wrong at all with a One Drop. Wyvern is good, you will like it. If it catches your eye go for it!!!
