AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Blackout Prototype is slightly heavier but cheaper with a hybrid kick point that releases faster, while the ACTN3 is 5 grams lighter, lets you pick from four flex options instead of two, and builds your stick to order. For most players, the ACTN3's customization and mid-kick feel are worth the extra five bucks.
