I've been playing with Desperado last 2 years but is time to get a new sheet. My CFO has been watching my expenditure closely so I am trying to find something that won't make her scream when she sees the bill. Bomb Talent comes to mind. So..

Dr N Desperado OX vs Bomb Talent OX. how would you rate:

- speed
- passive block
- chop block
- reversals/wobbling effect/change up effect
- chop (off table)
- push/attack
- difficult to play against

what is the major strength of each of these LP? what is the major weakness?
what are the reasons you would choose one over the other?

I am also very curious about Bomb Talent, but in my case as a Grass DtecS replacement.

Bomb Talent (0.5 mm) is good for defensive game. Control and speed are just right. Bomb Talent (OX) does not stick properly on some blades.

Desparado (OX) is fast and may be more disruptive.

Even with a glue sheet?

Bomb Talent OX (Red) on a Stiga Allround: Good control, easy to attack and good reversal. Love it! I have never used Desperado.
