It depends. Raven Attack is a strong symmetrical ball and personally I wouldn't classify it as a "heavy oil" ball. I'd compare it with the Phase II, Magnitude 055, Dare Devil Trick, and Ninja SE

Raven attack is not a heavy oil ball, especially with ice and defy oils and such. Medium to Med Heavy tops. It will be good for nationals, change surface to what you need. Most likely pattern will be 37-40 range. Don't expect a long pattern.

Have a Warlord XV solid coming which also is supposed to be able to handle at least medium heavy oil.  Plus its two piece.  Its going to be my step down from my Green Quantum.  Will give my impressions but can tell you Visionary's urethane is as good as anything symmetric on the market.
Warlock XV is a Medium oil at best. Again, surface will be king. Ball rolls the lane and it does hit hard!! Plus its a sharp looking ball!

Yep had to get one before it disappears like the pearl did.  Who knows if the new lineup with include a 2 piece ball.  Medium only is fine as I just need a good step down from my Quantum.

If we ever get to see a new lineup, 5 months past due as I type this...

Attack is really good on a true med shot..  anything much more than that and its not so good.   Warlock XV.. med or less.  That said when you get a shot to use the Warlock it hits and carries really well.
