The Warrior Edge is the lightest, most agile version of Diadem's Warrior line. It has an etched carbon face, which keeps the spin for longer, a 16 mm polymer honeycomb core and an Aero Guard edge guard. It weighs 8.0 oz on average, measures 16.4 x 7.5 inches and has a 5-inch handle with a 4 1/8 Comfort Max grip. The paddle is quick on resets and net exchanges and suits both the beginner who wants to improve and the competitive player who wants precision.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%60
Approval from players35%71

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.

Buyer reviews

Average of the ratings given at each store, weighted by how many reviews each one has.

Store ratings may reflect the store experience (shipping, service), not only the racquet.
