Adidas Adipower Legend wins by 18 points
Adidas Adipower Legend scores 90/100 against 72/100 for the Adidas Control Blue. Its biggest edge is power (+20).
“Ignore the Adipower name's attacking history: the Legend is a control instrument. Control 92 is among the highest we have scored, and the EVA Soft Performance core with a Carbon 3K face explains the feel: soft enough to absorb pace and reset the point, precise enough to put a lob on the back glass at will. Comfort 78 and tolerance 77 make it kind to arms and imperfect contact alike. Power 82 is the trade, respectable but not a finisher, so points end through construction rather than violence. For intermediates upward who win with patience and placement, it is superb.”
“The Control Blue 2026 is adidas at its plainest: an EVA core under a carbon-fibreglass face scoring control 76 with kind terms (comfort 74, tolerance 76) and prompt handling (74). Power 62 states the single-minded brief. Weight documentation is incomplete. Value 78 is honest. The name is the specification: this frame places the ball and does nothing else, at money that respects the modesty. For placement-first improvers who want the trefoil without flagship pricing, it serves plainly; the Cross It Team Ctrl a shelf up adds polish for a little more.”
