Bedlam has an asymmetric core. Nomad has a symmetric core.

Reaction shape - too close to call.

The Bedlam is asymmetric - intermediate differential of 0.018.

Depends more on the surface than the drilling, in my opinion.
Wrong MB placement on the Bedlam can make it more arc-y than flippy. The MB is significant.

Depends more on the bowler and the drilling than the ball. Both get lots of length, and lots of backend. This is one where the house and the driller make a bigger difference, in my opinion, that an online opinion.
