Why no reviews for Wicked Encounter?

Why is there no Wicked Encounter review tab?

I am looking for reviews for that ball!

I had this ball all of last season and replaced it at the beginning of this season with a Roto Grip Impact Theory (overseas Critical Theory). The Wicked was a pretty smooth, rolly kind of ball. I mostly played THS leagues with it and a couple of sport shot sweepers. On a house shot it wasn't nearly as strong as I was expecting, likely due to some rolling out issues. I tried polishing it up but didn't like the reaction. It did get through the heads better but didn't have enough kick on the backends. I preferred my Frantic for league but would switch to the Wicked when I needed something more controlled and predictable when the Frantic was becoming over/under. I never really found a place in my arsenal that I liked for this ball though, hence why I replaced it. My teammate now has it and has had pretty good luck with it the last few weeks but he has a lot less hand than me and can play more of the track with it.

Currently in the bag: Lock, Critical Theory, Asylum, IQTP Frantic, Buffalo Bills Spare
