At a glance
The Blackout Prototype is noticeably lighter at 350g and way more affordable at $180 USD, but the LX3 2025 gives you a much wider flex selection and more blade pattern options if fit matters more than savings. If you play in a common flex range and want to spend less, the Blackout is the easy call.
