Sampled at Worlds, then regretted not buying it so I traded for it.
The epitome of the modern competitive monometal. Bigger usually doesn’t mean better but in this case… It does, boys.
Nicely powerful, highly controlled yoyo. Bit unpleasant for rail combos, but it handles well for when you just wanna hit your tricks but fast. An absolute monster for zoning and zontals.
Tech players might be conflicted, if you prefer tighter more dense mounts where the yoyo weaves between string gaps you might be averse to this. If you have a lot of swinging slacks and whips to catch, you may love this yoyo. Overall I haven’t had a problem with either though.
Everyone should at least try this yoyo.

More performant than the old Jugemu but it’s just odd, which is bad coming from the old Jugemu which was already odd. So janky. Does weird things in play. Not very controllable. Strange pacing. Also, the shape change is just bleh. At least they’re public about the material.

Performance wise: it’s a good yoyo! I can’t really think of any major criticisms in regard to the performance.
But maaaan the design is WILD. It’s experimental with the trimaterial build and it very much challenges the current design ethos by being so BIG at 58×58 so it’s definitely harder to pallet even for people who may have more “modern” tastes.
Honestly, I could feasibly put this yoyo in A or even S-tier, but based purely on how polarizing I think it could be I just had to drop it. A tough sell is a tough sell. I definitely recommend giving this yoyo a college try at the very least. I liked it.
I definitely think the shape can be tweaked away from the sorta U-shape of the Scintillator. Something more in line with the shape of the Savage would’ve made this yoyo a bit more palatable I think.

Probably the most hyped yoyo at the W1LD booth. Pretty much everyone wanted to try this yoyo the second we walked onto the venue: And a LOT of people really loved it.
I definitely preferred some other options, but the Adrenaline stands out as the fastest yoyo I’ve ever played with. Insanely good in every other regard as well. The biggest drawback is that the yoyo was unwieldy and the build makes it questionable in regards to its sturdiness.
W1LD was on a roll at Worlds if you couldn’t tell. And I’ve only done two of their yoyos.

If this yoyo was 56mm I think it would’ve gone down as an all-time goat. As is it’s good, fast, and maneuverable; but it lacks the power and spin force to get it over the edge for me.
