This is an attacking rubber and is really good at initiating topspin from your opponent's backspin, counter-looping, smashing, driving and blocking. Good control too. however, for other non-offensive strokes like chopping away from table, service, and pushing, control is only a 6. Flipping requires care because of the rubber's high arc and shots tend to go over the baseline.
For Japanese-style and all non-RPB penholders, DO NOT buy this rubber because close-to-table blocking or attacking is almost impossible -- again -- due to the high-throw of the rubber. J-penhold players will have to close their angle on the BH, which is virtually impossible against opponents who are powerful loopers. Those with RPB shouldn't have any problems with this rubber.
