At a glance
The Nexus E3 is a heavier stick built for learning the Nexus mid kick feel on a budget, while the HockeyStickMan Pro Blackout is significantly lighter and gives you more flex choices and curve options for less money. If weight and stick feel matter most to you, the HockeyStickMan wins; if you specifically want Bauer's ER Spine Technology and don't mind the extra grams, the Nexus makes sense.
