Fantastic rubber for the price for beginners/intermediate. Tackiness disappears after a few days, but the topsheet remains grippy after 3 months of playing, unlike Gambler Zero. Soft sponge makes it easy to control and generate spin. I could lift underspin balls much easier than with harder rubbers. The rubber is “slow” by today’s standards, but it gives you confidence to hit hard and know your balls will land on the table. If you need more speed, you can pair it with a harder, faster blade, which I think would work well. I used it on forehand with Gambler Fire Dragon Touch blade.
