Just wondering if any of you have both or compared it with a friend who has one. I have the Rogue right now and was wondering if i got a 2nd Dimension that if it would overlap. I know the Rogue is a hybrid and the 2nd is reactive with mica.

Are they drilled the same and did you test them with the same surface?

These two balls would definitely not overlap. Two totally different pieces of greatness here.

The Rogue is an asymmetric beast, you have the patented Cell motion, goes a bit longer than the og Cell and is more continuous on the backend, just not as sharp as the pearl. You have a hybrid coverstock helping the ball get this read and motion on the lanes.

In the Second Dimension, you have two asymmetric halves shifted 90 degress and put together to create the Symmetric core, creating a heavy roll. You have a pearl coverstock with Enhanced Traction Mica. This causes that great midlane read without sacrificing that continuous backend motion all the way through the pin deck.

The Rogue Cell still has the opportunity to spin up to quick, depending upon the condition, while the 2nd Dimension creates a very heavy roll through the entirety of the lane. The Rogue can smooth out the transition from Wet to dry slightly better than the Second, because of the Rogue's hybrid cover.

Laying these two ball out similarly, there would still be a noticeable difference in overall ball motion. Modifying the layouts to ensure no kind of overlap would occur, might be best for what you are looking for.

This is a comparison with both balls being out of box, naturally surface adjustments to either would help in certain situations.
