AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Code Encrypt has a hybrid kick that sits between low and mid, while the True HZRDUS goes full low-kick for snap releases. The Code is $30 more expensive, but if you're a stronger player who likes balanced feel and don't mind the higher flex in a 75, it's the more versatile option; the True at 105 flex is noticeably stiffer and built purely for quick-release shooters.
