First Impressions
The AMF Unreal shows up in a bold color combination of black, blue and green solid. The heart of this model is the asymmetric CFT Core, which stands out with a low RG of 2.480 and a strong differential of 0.051. The cover is the grabby F74 Solid Reactive coverstock, finished out of the box with a special nEat finish (4000 grit). The low RG gets the core revving up very quickly, while the roughed-up shell should make the ball travel very safely through the heads and build massive traction.
Comparison
Compared to the AMF Escape with its pearl cover, the Unreal grabs noticeably earlier and offers a considerably more stable, steadier reaction at the breakpoint. Against the Storm Phaze II, the Unreal generates a hard-hitting asymmetric motion in heavy oil, but one that runs rounder than typical snappy balls. Once the transition sets in and the front part of the lane dries up, the Unreal burns up energy relatively quickly because of its rough surface. It demands enough oil.
On the Lanes
The AMF Unreal's preferred home is on heavily oiled lane conditions. It's the perfect choice if you need a ball on fresh patterns that grabs hard in the midlane and produces a steady hook toward the pocket. The dependable reaction helps you avoid missing the breakpoint even with massive volume. The ball should maximize carry through its brutal drive. On dried-up lanes, however, this ball is far too aggressive and hard to control.
