Our scores, updated 8 November 2026 · How we score
Score by score
How we score →The green bar wins the round. The Hack 04 takes 5 of the six, and value is level.
Feel is read from the core and the face until hardness is measured.
What is different
Four things change between them. Pick one to look closer.
18K packs 18,000 carbon filaments into each thread against 3,000: a stiffer face that answers sooner on volleys. The Armageddon's 3K is a little softer and gives you more time when you are late.
Edge: the Hack 04, 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: 375 g and 365 to 375 g.
No edge either way
The balance point is not listed for both.
No edge either way
* 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.
