Nomad or Nomad Pearl would likely be a better choice.

You might want to consider something a little stonger than both of those.  The Riots are excellent pieces of equipment and are quite strong for the price but not as strong as a VG .  The Mars is going to be much longer than your VG and the Riot.  You might want to consider a Rogue Cell or a Invasion unless you are looking for something shorter or broken down patterns.

I might agree with the Rogue Cell, possibly Cell Pearl. My opinion is that the Invasion would be too strong, at almost any surface or layout, and that Mars or Riot would be too weak for what the OP is looking for.

idk an invasion may work they are really not as strong as everyone says i still believe a vg is stronger. but i will say play it safe and go with the nomad pearl using like a 45x4.5x40 layout this will give you a mid lane reaction while maintaining a good backend. plus the nomad line is amazing, or their is the cell pearl which to me is just a tad bit longer and stronger than the nomad pearl.
