Loki Arthus Asia ALC, an OFF++ high-end and fast Pro ALC blade, is designed for advanced players. It offers excellent value for its price compared to much more expensive ALC and ZLC blades from Butterfly and other brands. As a high-end blade for Pro players and advanced players, the Loki Arthus Asia ALC pairs well with high-end rubbers like Tensor rubbers or Tenergy, Tenergy Hard, Donic Blue Grip, Victas 15-extra, and even traditional Chinese rubbers like Hurricane. It also excels with rubbers featuring blue sponge (with tuning recommended) or hybrids.

This fast blade from LOKI is made from carbon acrylate with hinoki, featuring a 7-ply construction. Compared to Loki’s other high-end ALC blade, the Arthur Europe ALC, the Arthur Asia ALC is slightly stiffer and faster. It requires a few playing sessions to get a sense of the blade’s performance and qualities. Like all other blades made of wood or carbon, including ALC, the blade needs to be “played in” to achieve its optimal quality and elasticity.
