AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Trigger 9 is way more affordable, offers a much wider flex selection, and is built for quick-release forwards, while the AS-V Pro is noticeably lighter, uses premium pro-grade carbon, and suits players who load up and shoot from distance. The main trade-off is release speed versus raw shot power.
