Mastermind similar To Virtual Gravity Nano

Is it just me? It seems like these two yield a similar reaction and have a similar color scheme...
Not accusing Big B of copying. I'm just acknowledging the two...

Not in my hands. Mastermind is earlier and stronger. Nano is not near the quality ball as the Mastermind.

I agree with the earlier post. The Mastermind has alot more midlane, the Nano more backend. I still carry/use both. I start out with the Mastermind, after a little burn, I switch to the Nano. I can usually use the Mastermind 1 game, the then finish the night with the Nano. If necessary I transition to my Sigma Tour.

I think if you're talking about the stock surface for the Mastermind (500/1500 grit), then I can see its having a stronger midlane, but have you compared them using the Nano's stock surface, 500/4000? Then the Mastermind's basic reaction might change somewhat.

I get the impression the Nano has Particles but a great ball.

I have seen the polished Mastermind and it moves very similar to polished Nanos I have seen.

Great balls!  both.

Charlest is CORRECT. My nano has shined up so much it looks like it's has a lite coat of polish on it. I didn't even think about that with my descriptions of ball movement.

yeah, that 4000 grit surface is kind of sensitive if you're not speed dominant. Use can change it very quickly; a quick refresh with a damp 4000 pad is a good idea every couple of weeks or so.

I should have been more clear... I am comparing the Mastermind to the VG Nano at the same surface.

I have not altered the surface on my Mastermind yet. The Nano I have used at various grits. The cover is not as strong as the Mastermind.
