I tried different kinds of blades. And try to slow it down..the more.I slow down my blade, the more I won club matches. So I am really wondering if the blades mentioned still relevant or what?

Relevant to who? For pro players, no...
For club players, anything that works for them is fine.

Sure. I see the random dude with the old korbel and allplay from time to time. It's their ease of use that make them so great, I'd pick these over a viscaria any day tbh, but I'm one hell of an ej, so that'll never happen, I'm guessing it's the same for many others.

I am ej too. But I noticed that when I changed my set up to slower, my game is better. From super zlc, vis, to 5 ply allwood off.. thenreason i asked.

I did it too for a while with korbel, but my attacks lost a lot of venom and I had to work harder mid point for the same results. Now I have a harimoto alc clone coming in, probably a decent middle ground.

Won't make a difference. At receive the 90% is the rubber, not the blade.

My experience different. I am losing more if using slow blade.

Maybe because, I am confident in short games using the slow blade than the faster blades
