Cheap:
1. Xiom Vega Europe
2. Donic Desto series.
3. Donic Acuda series.
4. All the older Non-Tensor classic grippy rubber, e.g., Yasaka Mark V, Butterfly Flextra, Donic Liga et al.

Hell no, NOT CHEAP...
Chinese is cheap, Tensor and (most) Japanese are expensive...

What is “ejing”?
EJ is equipment junkie, I thought I was getting bad with 4 rackets but there are folk in here with 20+ blades and drawers full of rubbers!

On the guitar forums it's called GAS, Guitar Acquisition Syndrome 😂

I used to have GAS too, now that was expensive...
My favorite was (and still is) G&L, But lately I found out I play mostly on a Fender Tele FMT HH (The old one Korea built). The reason being, It sounds close to a Gibson SG and is super light...

But I luckily was able to suppress my GAS :)

Lets see if I can do the same with the EJ syndrome...

If you like the tacky ones I would sincerely recommend battle 2 soft from friendship/729 best one I ever used for my bh
But I still can get a lot more spin from my H3 prov OS...
I am using Friendship on BH though.

Stiga Mantra Pro H or M - around $35 on aliexpress. Made in Japan by Daiki, manufacturer of the Nittaku Hammond Z2. Probably the best deal in non Chinese performance rubbers.

I really like the Yinhe Moon 12 Blue, it has fantastic defensive qualities, but it needs a lot of effort to get high speed
My 2 cents as I played with a similar setup. I'm currently trying Dignics 09c on BH after playing with Moon 12 Blue on Yinhe Pro-01. It's much easier to play with Dignics for me tbh, it's faster and has a higher throw, I feels that my shots are more consistent, while Moon 12 requires so much effort to put the ball on the table even with a relatively fast blade. Not a budget rubber though.
