Evo Qx-O

# Warrior Evo QX-O Head
The Warrior Evo QX-O lacrosse head marked a significant evolution in Warrior's offensive lineup. Designed for the elusive ball carrier, the QX-O boasts an unmatched lightness at 20 grams lighter than its predecessor, a redesigned bottom rail and mid-low pocket, and a Therma Lock resin for ensuring the head maintains its shape and stiffness even in high temps.

The QX-O integrates into Warrior's history of offensive innovation. Following the success of the iconic Warrior Krypto Pro shaft, the QX-O prioritizes control and power, aligning with Warrior's dedication to crafting high-performance tools for offensive dominance. The QX-O balances weight (it’s the lightest offensive lacrosse head from Warrior) and stiffness, appealing to players seeking a versatile head for all aspects of the offensive game.


**Perfect head for:** attackmen


### Key Features Include



* Therma-Loc resin boosts performance in high-heat
* Improved scoop for effortless ground ball pickups.
* Redesigned bottom rail and mid-low pocket profile to facilitate ball control
* Sym-Rail eliminates excess weight and provides improved stiffness.
* Optional LOC-THROAT feature for better head-to-handle attachment or leave out for lightweight performance.


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [Maverik Optik 3.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/maverik/optik-3-0/l165698) and the [STX Surgeon 900](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/maverik/optik-3-0/l165698)

The Warrior Evo QX-O carves a niche in the offensive space, battling it out with the Maverik Optik 3.0 and STX Surgeon 900 for the title of top offensive weapon. All three prioritize a balance of power and control, but cater to slightly different playing styles. The Evo QX-O boasts a mid-pocket depth and a pinched face shape, offering a sweet spot for powerful shots and maintaining a good feel for dodges and passing. The Maverik Optik 3.0 features a slightly deeper pocket and a wider face, leaning towards maximizing power in shots and holds for aggressive offensive plays. Conversely, the STX Surgeon 900 takes a more traditional approach with a medium-depth pocket and a balanced face shape, excelling in versatility for strong throws, accurate passing, and decent ground ball pick-up. 


### Progression:

The Warrior Evo lacrosse head is a popular choice for players of all levels, and it has seen several iterations over the years. Here's the progression:

Evo (1999-2000): The original Evo was designed to be lightweight and featured a refined offset patent for improved release points.

[Evo 2](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evolution-2-0/strung/l320960): Built upon the original's success, the Evo 2 was about trying to increase ball control in the pocket and accuracy out of the pocket. It has a redesigned throat and the amount of offset in the head increased. 

[Evo 3](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evolution-3x/l9138): Saw significant changes including custom color heads, increased sidewall string holes from ten to 13, and a shortened throat. 

[Evo 4](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-4/l7007): Introduced the SYM-RAILTM technology, which aimed to reduce weight strategically while maintaining overall stiffness.

[Evo 5](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-5/l7064): Further refinements, including the Tilt Tech string hole setup for a lower pocket and improved control. It also boasts a Throat Lock for a secure fit on the shaft and a stiffer design overall.

[Evo QX-O](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-qx-o/l164309): Designed for offensive players, it’s approximately 20 grams lighter than the Evo 5. Has an Improved scoop for better ground ball control and a new Therma-Loc resin for increased stiffness and face shape retention in hot weather. 


### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* I quickly grew to love the QX-O. It’s durable and capable of taking the biggest of stick checks.
* This is my favorite of the Warrior’s—very lightweight, durable, and great face shape.
* The optional throat plug is the best feature.

CONS



* It felt a little stiff and less forgiving than other Warrior heads I've used.
* The QX-O offers fewer sidewall stringing holes compared to other heads. 
* I prefer a more responsive head. This one is stiff. 


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

 
The Warriors started making up some crazy names for their heads. This model is made for an offensive player who’s looking for more ball control with a quick release on passing and shooting. The big selling point is that it's 20 grams lighter than the previous model and has an upgraded rail system. The material makes it a stiffer head, and it helps the head retain its shape in high-heat environments. It has an updated scoop to make ground balls that much easier.
