Adidas Adipower Legend scores 90/100 against 77/100 for the Drop Shot Flame Soft. Its biggest edge is control (+22). On price, the Adidas Adipower Legend is currently €1 cheaper.
“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 Flame Soft is Drop Shot's gentle mid-tier: a head-light 370 g build with a Soft EVA core scoring comfort 73 and tolerance 72 while keeping power at a modest 74. Control 70 and maneuverability 72 are honest. Face documentation is incomplete. Value 72 positions it awkwardly: the brand's own Axion Comfort and Canyon Comfort editions offer more pace or more kindness for similar money, which crowds the Flame out of its own family photo. As ever with this brand's overlapping range: the frame is sound, the arithmetic belongs to a sibling. Buy whichever Soft edition is cheapest.”
