5ply to 5+2 inner construction

[imbadatlooping]

Hey everyone. I currently play with the Butterfly Petr Korbel with boosted H3N Prov OS 39 degree on the forehand and T19 on the backhand. For future references, what would be your recommended inner 5+2 blades to upgrade too once i start to outgrow the Petr Korbel or want something more out of my blade? Preferably I would like a blade that plays well close and mid distance to the table and has a good balance of speed, spin, and control. Also something that's not direct but more for 2 wing loopers. I don't care about the brand, just want some recommendations for future me to look at once that time comes.

yasaka liu jialiang, you wont found a better inner carbon blade (W968 composition) on the quality/power/price category than this one, has great control, dwell, blocks good and has a lot of gears with some force

Spinlord Ultra Carbon, the speed is Off-.

you can go for this one also, Loki W81 inner Pro (Inner with Limba outer ply) similar construction to Harimoto :

I play personnaly with the DHS 301T inner with Koto outer (so more stiff and direct than Limba), the handle though in dhs is smaller than the "regular" one

I moved from a Korbel to a butterfly innerforce alc, a bit faster but still had spin and that wood feel type. A nicely balanced blade. On a budget you could try DHS PG5x, even cheaper than the korbel.

For a small step, Ma Lin (now Myth) Carbon. Roughly the same speeds at low to medium power but it has just a little bit more oomph when playing harder.
For a bigger step, Innerforce Layer ALC.
Adding a little bit more, Harimoto ALC.

If you like the larger size of the head on Korbel, Harimoto is the same, Ma Lin Carbon is ever so slightly smaller and Innerforce Layer ALC is again a little bit smaller coming in at a standard 157x150.
