I don't know too much about the Big Bang and the World Class, and due to the new technology I can't offer a great impression of both. I had the New Standard and it was ok, but I ended up selling it and used that money to purchase a Total Shock and Awe. I had the NS drilled with a 5"pin to pap, 3" above mid, cg kicked with an x hole in the thumb quadrant. The TS&A was also drilled with a 5" pin to pap, 4" above mid, mb 6" from pap with no x hole. The TS&A was quite a bit more angular at the breakpoint and had alot more midlane roll. The strong asymetric core really seemed to tip the ball over where the NS just didn't finish as well. This has been my experience with many other balls, asymetric stuff just tends to bite more, giving many solid coverstocks the snap that was previously reserved only for pearls.
Such is why I figured that the Big One would have more backend than the WC or the BB. I also figured more overall hook because the GB 11.2 is considered by many to be the strongest cover ever made and the asymetric core is among the strongest on the market. Drilled to the most dynamic core position w/same surface prep, I will still, despite what BTM says, put my money on the Big One to outhook either the WC or the BB.
The longevity of legends coverstocks is very good, the NS I sold is still being used, and many people I've talked to have put a ton of games on their Legends/Lanemasters stuff. I will contend that the One series also has excellent longevity. I have yet to see any one that loses a great deal of its reaction and there have been upwards of 75 of em' punched out of the local pro shop. The oob surface may very well have something to do with this, but I have taken mine down to 1000 for about 25 games and it still has a great reaction.
