This guy knows how to do a comparison video. Finally someone throws a line with one ball and then throws the same line with the next ball to show the difference in reaction.

I'm glad I subbed to you. I should be getting my Virtual Gravity today!!

@videoballreviews id hate to ruin the heated discussion about gibberish, but personally both balls are insane and it just depends on the person's needs.
-
So over all guys what should i get the virtual gravity or the invasion?
-
How do you do a comparison video with 2 completely different drillings?
-
I can't wait I already have a Virtual Gravity, now sometime this week I'll be getting an Invasion! They are both great balls and I can't wait to improve my already amazing Storm lineup!

Love this video, thinking of going 5 1/2 x 4 though. Any know the music in this video, by name or artist or any info? Thx......Brit, what tune is this?

i got a reign about a month ago, and since i got it, i have been averaging 230 using predominantly that ball. i have never thrown a ball that reads the midlanes and continues moving through the backend and through the pins so well. incredible continuation. from what ive seen, the VE picks up a little bit earlier than the reign. both are great balls, but just from my personal experience, i would go with a reign. the reign of fire looks great for heavier oil too

that was my first reaction too. Then i got my invasion this week, threw it, and said wow for probably an hour straight.
As a ball driller myself, I question the drilling layouts for both balls in this video. Additionally, the layout for the Invasion has a very poor Pin-CG-Mass bias. The CG is negative...
This video doesn't display the true potential of either ball, and I think they intentionally are making the Invasion look aggressive next to a very week VG drilling. Pin under the ring, with thumb 2.5-3 inches from Mass Bias would be a much stronger drilling for either ball, especially on that lane surface.

@SELLSHAKO All Layouts are based on my PAP, so everything is equal. Cg distance is insignificant on strong assymetrical bowling balls such as these. The only thing CG distance will determine is static weights.

I completely understand the CG distance being insignificant, but it does play a role in how the ball eventually is weighed, and meets USBC regulations, to some extent. And, again, those layouts may be based on your PAP, but more common and effective layouts for higher-end aggressive coverstocks with non-polished and non-pearl coverstocks would include pin under or off the side of a ring finger. I'm not saying these layouts are wrong, I'm just suggesting displaying other layouts...

Static weights on both these balls ended up being within 1/2 oz. Not near enough to alter reaction. Placing the pin under or to the side of my ring finger would place the pin somewhere between 3.5" to 4" from my PAP. That is a very high flaring layout and with my ball speed, a ball as strong as this one would flare out well before it reaches the pins. The layouts i have on these balls allow them to meet their maximum potential (for me) on the oil patterns being tested on.
