At a glance
The AS-V Pro is way more affordable and suits power players with its mid kick, while the Hzrdus Smoke costs significantly more but delivers a noticeably faster release for players who live off quick shots. Both sticks are close in weight, but the real split comes down to kick point feel and how much you want to spend.
