The Cold Blood didn't seem to do as well, I have one and it has just been more condition specific for me. I think that is also partially because I went with a smoother layout and it is naturally providing a smoother motion. The cover seems to be too strong at times, but when polished up mine doesn't have enough to make it back. Again I believe that's because of the layout I chose. Really no room to miss for me, if I do a little bit it's hello 10 pin.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Blood series gone and something new coming in

I wouldn't personally recommend the Cold Blood. I think there are many other options out there that are a better investment.

If I had to do that over, I would have gone with a Brunswick Mastermind or Ebonite Pivot. I actually had a Radical Guru ordered that should be getting drilled tomorrow or Saturday and then get to throw it Sunday in league

the BW legend would be a better choice in my opinion
proven core/cover combo
very clean cover and seems to store a ton of energy at the pins
mine took some tweaking to get it where i wanted

the deadly aim might also work as well
while not exactly the same, the motions of these 2 should be similar to the cold blood
i just figure that im going to have to tweak a new piece to get it where i want, i dont like a weight hole until i throw it and then decide if i need 1 or not

You will see a bad ass solid...if theyre smart..it'll come out for nationals.   

I dont bet on EBI being that smart...it'll prolly come out in July lol

I have a good friend who is a staffer that said there is a new bass ass ball coming out next. Should be in feb from what i was told

Good for them!  Makes sense right!

I think at some point they should do a mixture of the lines...."bad blood" would be interesting.
