Title: Pyramid - I am Cursed, should I get the Antidote or use the Force?
Post by: lefty50 on November 05, 2016, 12:01:33 PM
For those rare few who have already thrown the Curse plus 1 of the others, how would you rate them? Pyramid says Antidote is less and Force is more, but the way I see Curlie throw the Antidote, that's hard to believe, plus the price point is attractive and I favor symmetric. I don't want less though, I want a little more than the Curse.
Feedback appreciated.

I could not base anything off of the way Curlie throws the ball unless your game is based off of topping/thumb down every shot.  :)

The colors alone will make the antidote appear to be MORE ball.  It's an illusion!

Also Curlie is playing closer to the friction with the antidote. More in the oil with the force.

Also take note.

The force is assym @ 2000 grit Abralon no polish.  Basically despite what we see...this ball is the stronger of the 3 core and cover wise!

The curse is symmetrical @ 2000 grit PLUS polish
Antidote is symmetrical @ 2000 grit PLUS polish

From the videos I saw

-The force needs oil
-The curse seems to be the best of the 3, can come back from anywhere on THS with ease
-The antidote definitely needs friction. If u watch dustins shots, his barely come back at all. 

The decision is....do u need more or less ball? You already have your answer, I'm not sure I see what you're seeing that im not.

Scott, I actually do throw a somewhat similar shot.... :)
Bill, your analysis seems absolutely spot on considering what I know and have heard about all 3, but I'm not sure I see what you're seeing. This is great. Let me check again and get back to you on this...

Also pyramid let's you choose your reaction...so if you wanted the curse but something more maybe just go with the curse but choose the strong roll/strong backend
