Disappointed it wasn't a remake of the AMF Gunsmoke Cobra...

The graphics on the ball are awesome though.

If it was for heavy oil, then I'd probably buy it.
But since I can't go buying any ball I'd love to have, because of budget and space, then I won't be getting it.

Hope Motiv makes another heavy oil ball before the summer break ends.
If they ever use the name Vicious for a ball, it was my idea. And no matter what type of oil pattern it's made for, I'm getting it :P Hope thye make a ball named Vicious, sounds like it could be a nice ball xD
My design, though they should not use it, because the bear isn't me who drew :P And the colorscheme sucks :P

But I do hope they use something along the lines of a bear, maybe one that have made claw marks on the name.

Someone replied to my comment about this on one of Motiv's YT videos, he said to call it "Vicious Predator" xD

Hammer already had a Vicious line years ago.

Names can be reused after sometime. 3 or 4 years....don't remember.

There was issue over the mission dominanation (which I had lol)..cuz storm still produced dominanation line balls. 

Whereas the primal rage from c300 was long gone when motiv used it.

The whole crux thing was different.

I might actually buy this one.
I'm currently using my Scandal or Swerve to spare with.
So maybe getting a medium oil ball is a good idea. Or maybe it's a bad idea since I can spare the 10 pin with a Jackal on medium oil, because of my low rev rate and average or above speed :P

Kind of interesting that they shifted the Octane Burn over to the middle column of the light-medium oil row and placed the cobra in the right/angular motion column.

I currently use as my first choice ball the Primal re-mix, I love the ball, but have to make serious adjustments starting from mid way through the night, and even more drastic for the final quarter or so. Makes sense given the aggressiveness of the ball, and I would prefer not to have to adjust so much.

My 2/3 balls in my bag are the Thug and the bad ass, hate them both, Bad ass hits like a feather, and thug needs the perfect lane conditions to work for me, really an all or nothing ball. So I'd like to replace both.

Does this ball sound like it would be a good compliment to the re-mix? I was thinking long run to a trio of the re-mix/Paranoia/and possibly this ball. Though I do want to take it 1 at a time to ensure going all in on Motiv is the way I want to proceed.

Any thoughts would be appreciated

Lot's of people want to joke about all Motiv balls being illegal. I've heard the joke a thousand times.

At least we can say that our bowling balls are not made in Mexico. It really pisses off the Brunswick devotees, So, of course, I have to keep doing it.
Balls: Motiv Forza GT, Motiv Primal Rage Remix, Motiv Ascent Pearl and Motiv (On The Ball) spare ball.. All made in the USA.

Why does it matter? So many daily items are not made in the US. If where a bowling ball is made is such a big deal to you then get rid of everything else you own that's made outside the US.

Would it be nice if Brunswick still manufactured everything in the US? Of course, but a businesses main priority is to make a profit and stay open
