With the strong mb on the odyssey and having both of them, i can tell you not even close to same ball reaction, the cover and core are much much stronger on the odyssey like they should be.

The Odyssey is much more of a true oiler with the stronger cover and core.  The Horizon Solid can handle a good amount but the Odyssey has so much more kick downlane and the ability to create angle.

The HS is a lot of midlane with a nice strong arc.  The Odyssey has all the midlane but with a much more angular break.
