I still throw my Mutant cell. I hated this ball when i first threw it. I put it away for almost a year. Took it back out and it was still squirty at first. Now after a bunch of games on it, the ball is so controllable and still has a beast of a backend. I guess i just needed to change the cover when I got it or let a bunch of games get on it so it would just a little more tame.
