Can anyone compare the similarities or differences between these 2 balls? Numbers wise they are not drastically different and from what I am reading they seem to be similar on hook shape and overall hook. I want to know which one is more hook, earlier hook, which one is stronger on the backend. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

From what i have seen the rival is a little cleaner through the fronts and has more pop on the backend.The game breaker reads the mids a little sooner.I think overall hook is very close.These 2 balls a very close with minor differences explained above.

Yep what Dannial said already cleaner upfront more off the spot harder, if you want to carry one strike and spare ball i would go with the Rival.
The gamebreaker imo being the one coverstock probably will die at 100-150 games, i have have even seen the One's reaction go away and become dry lane balls.

i have them both to me the rival picks up the mids a lil earlier they are very good together both are very strong balls perfect 1 2 punch

whts the coverstock form ebonite used on the rival ?? mrnut... maybe this rival will die on the same time than the gamebreaker...
i have a kinetic made by Track well ebonite and a rival... both are reacting pretty well lets se if they can pass the 100 games.. by the way ... the kinetic hits harder than the g force gforce nebula .. hrg uranium ... cobalt bomb.. cobalt bomb solid... carbide plus... and all the balls i have previously... the rivall well i just have uise it on practice ... its a very strong arc reaction on the backend like the super cuda... =)

I keep hearing the Rival and resurgence are new covers, i heard that the resurgence cover was going to go on an Infinite One replacement but was given to the Columbia team to get them off the ground well.
I did also hear that the core in the Resurgence was reworked from the Original design, i must say they did a great job since i like the new Columbia balls better than the Ebonite releases.
