The blade I've ever used! Even though I'm an intermediate player who recently came back to Table Tennis, after 25 years, I find that the blade was easy to control despite warnings that it's a very fast blade which can be hard to control. Highly recommended!

Read our detailed review: The First Blade Equipped With Super Arylate/Carbon The Butterfly Viscaria Super ALC blade is the latest advance to emerge from Butterfly's famed R&D department. With increased power and softer touch, this update on the classic Viscaria blade creates new options for players from everywhere around the table. Rubber recommendations for this blade include Tenergy 05 and Dignics 05, which allow for quick attacks close to the table. For even more dynamic spin play, players should consider Butterfly Dignics 09C. With a tacky top sheet and a harder version of Butterfly Spring Sponge X, players can generate unbelievable spin with the new technology. To increase the grip on this blade, you can add Soft Grip Tape, providing more grip and comfort to the racket handle. Another great choice to extend the longevity of your racket is adding side tape to the blade, protecting the wood in the event it is hit on the table. Ply: 5W+2SALC Reaction: 121

FAQ: Does Megaspin sell Japan-made Butterfly blades?
Some Butterfly blades like Korbel and Grubba are produced in factories both in Europe and in Japan, so they exist in 2 variants. When a Japanese blade has a Europe-made version, we always carry the Japanese variant. Other blades like Butterfly Timo Boll Offensive are only made in China so we cannot carry a Japanese variant of these blades.
FAQ: Do Butterfly blades come pre-sealed?
All Butterfly blades come pre-sealed from the factory. There is no need to add blade sealing but you may if you require additional protection.

Reviews of Butterfly Viscaria Super ALC (9)
perfect 10/10 easy to make slow spinny shots, a lot of feeling example a lot more than fzd super alc which is another example when someone wants to rob your money and make another substitution, say no to your wallet. One good blade is worth a lot more money than you paid, because you can buy more, test and not be well trained and play with less consistency. Every handle change your vibes but for me FZD super alc quality is very bad. Don't recommend it
I feel this is softer and faster compared to Vis. Like Vis pairs seamlessly with any mid hard rubber on BH, though is very very (very!) picky with FH rubber - D05 is acceptable but ever so slightly soft. D80 too reactive on defense but great for attacking. T05H difficult to control, not enough dwell, needing lots of systematic training. T05 in 1.9 surprised me being better, though not in 2.1 - weird right?
Vega Pro, Nexy Etika 51, GA8 50 were not quite there, missing something. MX-D was good for the first week or so before the factory boosting wore off. After countless months of constant changing, Rakza Z EH turned out to be my no.1, followed by Battle 2 (40 deg) and T05 1.9 as top 3 FH. I would expect D09c/boosted National H3 BS to be great but as RZEH is less than half the price of these means no need to waste my money to find out. Any of the forementioned on BH is fine except maybe Battle 2/H3 would be too slow on this wing. This blade has less of that springiness found in the normal slower Vis (perhaps the higher density weave of SALC?), so attacking feels more stable especially when it gets tight i.e. 7-9 down, 9-8 up, 10-10.

I am old guy and an intermediate player with a rating of 1,600. I have played with Viscaria ALC blade and Tenergy 05 for many years. My style is smashing and blocking except for looping the backspins from opponents with FH and BH. Other than that, I do not do any spins, just smashing, pushing, flicking and blocking. For the table tennis, there are three stages with the playing: 1). Your serving. 2). Return your opponents serving. 3). Holding stage when you and your opponents hit the ball forward and backward. I am good with the first two stages. But, most of the time, I lost to the advanced level opponents at the 3) stage. I notice I am stucked with my intermediate level for many years and can not move on to the advanced level mainly because my smashing and blocking are not powerful enough to stop the opponents' top and side spins or heavy smashing. I need a blade which is powerful enough to hit the ball hard enough to stop the opponents' attack. The Viscaria ALC is very good and I have played with it for many years. The only thing it is missing is that, it does not have enough power I need to overwhelming the opponents' powerful attack. When the Viscaria Super ALC came out with the fanfare that, it is "much faster" than Viscaria ALC, I waited for over four month and finally got one a few weeks ago. But, to my biggest disappointment, the new Viscaries Super ALC is NOT any faster than original Viscaria ALC. if somebody insists it is faster than Viscaria, it probably is tiny little bit "faster". In my opinion, this new blade is NOT worth the much higher money you paid for this new blade. The original Viscaria ALC almost have everything this new Viscaria Super ALC has. Do not waste money on this new blade if you want to have "faster" blade.
