What is different
Four things change between them. Pick one to look closer.
Carbon against fibreglass: the Attack's carbon is stiffer and more precise, the Ctrl's fibreglass is softer, gives the ball more pop at low speed and forgives more.
Edge: the Attack, for precision
* The feel starts from the core's rated hardness (estimated from the core material where there is no rating), then the face: carbon 12K and up is firmer, fibreglass softer.
About the same weight: 360 to 375 g and 360 to 370 g.
No edge either way
Where each one balances, measured from the end of the handle. The lower the point, the more of the weight sits in your hand: the Ctrl at 260 mm, the Attack at 265 mm.
Edge: the Ctrl, for your arm
* Drawn to scale: a 455 mm racket in its shape's outline (traced from a real racket of that shape), with the balance point the shops list marked on it. Real rackets vary by a few millimetres.
