My favorite all-rounder.
It's good for everything and has no real weakness. Can be glued on any type of blade.
Not very speedy but if you know how to activate the tensor you can get enough speed to score. For specific game styles there are better options of course but if you look for a balanced rubber on the inexpensive side, this is the safest bet on the market today.

XIOM Vega Europe
by XIOM
Introduced Jan 2009 Spin is the most important element of modern table tennis. Not only the strength of spin but also the stability and secure feel have been desired by many players. VEGA series is the realization of the dream. VEGA is the mixture of two new technologies - HYPER ELASTO and CARBO SPONGE. Both of them are based on TENSOR technology which gives rubber the effect of built-in tension. HYPER ELASTO provides extreme spin and stability, and black colored CARBO SPONGE provides innovative efficiency of energy. Further, the feel of VEGA is exciting but comfortable. Its ease of use will help players play “winning” table tennis. Now four variations are available. All of them provide exceptional spin capability. VEGA PRO is for extreme spin, softer VEGA ASIA is for more speed, VEGA EUROPE is softer with more control, and finally, the softest VEGA ELITE is for extreme control. Strategy: ALL
Distance from table: Mid to Far
Speed: 85
Spin: 91
Control: 73
Hardness: Medium

Tacky rubber with good speed, spin & control. Works well on an offensive carbon blade. I use it on forehand & it's consistently giving good results.
This rubber is sensational for the backhand, this was my second rubber, before I played with Chinese rubbers. With xiom vega europe I was able to improve my backhand technique a lot, I was able to flick with a lot of power and control. I think the strength of this rubber is that it transfers the force of the movement very well without losing control and speaking of control, this rubber is excellent for counter-attacking and blocking, both passive and aggressive. For flicks it hooks up very well, it's quite direct. My only "complaint" is that it could generate more spin, to compensate for how direct it is. But for that it would have to be harder, it has 42 hardness. Recommended for any intermediate player who wants speed/control and confidence in his backhand.
I'm using 1.8 mm on an allround penhold blade.
Excellent feel & control. Also, I like the throw angle which keeps the ball lower over the net & prevents my opponent from an easy attack off a high ball.
Being medium soft and a slower tensor rubber, it allows me to place the ball more accurately on short game and makes it easier for me to loop the ball, though not the most powerful loop (it could be because of my age too :) )
All in - it's a pretty forgiving rubber, fast enough for my level of play (as an intermediate leisure player) and reasonably priced.
