Coming soon from Roto-Grip the "Mutant Cell"

color looks good.... hopefully it gets the same job done as the rest of the cell line

While the Rg and Diff. are important to a bowling balls performance the coverstock and the surface of the coverstock are the most important factors in bowling ball reaction. Compare the coverstock to a good pair of tires and the core is the engine. It does not matter if you have a super powerful engine if your tires are bald and just spin, and also if you have huge super tires but a weak engine that doesnt work either. Not the mention the USBC changed the maximum differential to a max of .047 I believe and I am sure that Rotogrip is getting their equipment in line with this new ruling. Also if the new coverstock is quite strong they may have had to tame down the core to "match" the coverstock better. So it is difficult to conclude how a ball is going to react until you actually put some holes in it and throw it down the lane. Just take a look at all of the balls in the industry that have similiar core specs are behave totally different because of coverstock formulation. For example, the Storm VG and the Storm VE have the same exact core specs but because of the coverstock difference these two balls are TOTALLY different in reaction. I will surely be buying the Mutant cell when it is released. This line of balls have been nothing short of excellent.

To compare the vg and ve is like comparing apples to oranges... The ve is part pearl so the ball would have a different reaction.. I was comparing 2 solids in the vg and the MC... The mutant cell has the solid version of the rogue cell cover (hybrid).. If you compare the rougue cell and the VE you will get a better idea... Since the covers on the MC and VG are the solids of these 2 balls... I would not say that the rogue cell is more aggressive than the VE.. Close but not more.. Also its hard to say one ball is more or less aggressive based off cover because all of that can be altered.. You can't alter a core.. I based my opinion that the mutant cell will be less aggressive than the virtual gravity for the following... Weaker core specs.. And comparing the hybrid"sisters" which both use the same cover as the solid counterpart...

After looking.. it also looks as if the core on the Mutant Cell is slightly weaker than the Rogue Cell core

I thought the Rogue Cell was 2 parts solid while the VE is 2 parts pearl, so I would think the Rogue is stronger.

[JaxBowlingGuy]

A solid doent really make a ball stronger... Its the cover itself.. That was the point that I was trying to make that virtual line has a more aggressive cover than the cell line... It would just be better to compare the VE and tje RC, more so than the MC and VE..

[Strike Domination]

I still say the Rogue is stronger than the VE, I even think the Rogue is almost the same as the VG. I don't really think R2X is much stronger than Cytoplasmic.

I have a couple of guys that i drill for that have both the Virtuak Energy and a Rouge with identicle layouts. Rouge is definatly stronger in that it will handle higher volumes of oil due both to cover and the ball reading the lane sooner. Virtual Gravity is more angular off the spot than the Rogue. Reports from the WSOB on nthe mutant was it read the midlane more than the original Cell with a stronger backend than the original. The new tweaked cover is "stronger"

the core looks to be slightly less aggressive than the Cell's... Stormed, What do you think will be more aggressive, the Virtual Gravity or the Mutant Cell???

[Strike Domination]

My prediction.. pretty similar, maybe the Mutant Cell a bit stronger.
