In my opinion the warrior can be earlier then the paradox pearl depending on the layout of course. Lets say the layouts are the same and the surface is the same and on the same oil pattern. The Paradox Pearl should clear the front part of the lane better and the back-end reaction should be nice even arcing. The Warrior can be earlier and has the ability to really be sharp, and continuous at the end of the pattern and or once it hits the friction.
