I am a korean/japanese penholder with a Cypress-S paddle. My style of play is Offensive all round at the same I can't resist chopping and playing defensive. I understand that Tenergy 05 is more for close to the table and t64 is more for mid distance.. but there are reviews that say that t05 is good enough for players playing close mid and far distance from the table and this is messing me up. does that mean t64 isnt good for close to the table? also why is it that people never seem to talk about tenergy 25? it seems to be just the "in between" of t05 and t64 which is why i wanted to buy it but nobody seems to like it. Somebody please tell me why? Overall, which rubber would be best for an all round CONTROL oriented game for my style? Currently I'm leaning more towards buying t64 since it generally seems more suitable for a j-penhold style, I'm just worried if it won't be good when playing close to the table.
When are the exact dates for the release of the FX versions? I'm scared if I buy t64 I'll regret that I should've gotten a t05 FX instead or something. I want these rubbers badly and cant wait to hear them reviews!

Wouldn't worry too much - but
Wouldn't worry too much - but let me put it this way - is your stroke more a euro, chinese hard drive, or inbetween?
05 is the best spin without a doubt, 64 is usable at the table but just is better at 3 metres away - the throw is better. t25 is really just at the table attack drive...
The exact dates for fx arent out yet
tenergy 25 isn't talked about because it just doesn't do much. It is unique in the way it plays, but honestly there is nothing worth noting about it. It's terrible at looping away from the table - so not many people would use it unless they are table bound. It feels hard to get into the rubber too.
64 is more a kind glued bryce fx - sure you can play at the table punching, smashing - anything about hitting into the blade, but away from the table counter looping is a dream. take a look at both Oh sung Eun and Mizutani Jun, they both use t64 both sides of their blade. If you have a similar style - no matter the grip - then it would suit you.

best table tennis racket for pen holders
The best table tennis racket for pen holders is hard to find and many times you should buy and then sand the blade down to fit your grip. I think the best is a Michael Maze arylate carbon blade. It is very spinny but has full power.
