# 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.

# Warrior Evo 5 Lacrosse Heads
The Warrior Evo 5 Lacrosse Head is a force to be reckoned with for offensive midfielders and attackmen seeking power, control, and pinpoint accuracy. Its selling points are undeniable: the Tilt-Tech stringing holes facilitate a low-mid pocket placement, while the Sym-Rail technology shaves weight without sacrificing stiffness.

The Evo 5 seamlessly integrates into Warrior's rich lacrosse history, marked by consistent advancements in equipment and technology. Established in Warren, Michigan, Warrior quickly made a name for itself with its innovative gloves and pads. However, the Evo series specifically targeted the offensive end of the field. The Evo 5 is a testament to Warrior's dedication to refining and perfecting offensive offerings. 


### Perfect head for: offensive midfielders and attackmen


### Key Features Include



* Tilt-Tech string hole design
* TruOffset® Technology deepens the pocket for enhanced ball control and shot power
* Bottom Rail Designed for mid to low-pocket placement
* Sym-Rail gets rid of excess weight while providing greater stiffness in the design


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [ECD Rebel Offense](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/east-coast-dyes/rebel/l8819) and the [STX Hyper Power](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/hyper-power/l168596)

When compared to its competitors, the Warrior Evo 5 sits in a sweet spot for offensive players seeking a balance between hold and power. It boasts a stiffer pocket than the ECD Rebel Offense, making it ideal for low-pocket setups and powerful shots, while still offering enough flexibility for a good feel on the ball. The STX Hyper Power leans even further towards stiffness and power, but at the expense of some of the Evo 5's versatility in terms of pocket formation and overall feel. Ultimately, the choice between these three comes down to individual preference and playing style, with the Evo 5 offering a compelling blend of power, hold, and feel for offensive players.


### 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](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-74/l10506) (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/evo-2-0/l8958):** The Evo 2 built upon the original's success 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):** The Evo 3 saw significant changes, including custom color heads, an increased number of sidewall string holes from ten to 13, and a shortened throat. 
* **[Evo 4](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-4/l7007):** The Evo 4 introduced the SYM-RAILTM technology, which aimed to strategically reduce weight but still maintain overall stiffness.

It also boasts a Throat Lock for a secure fit on the shaft and a stiffer design overall.


### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* The Evo 5 is probably my favorite head ever. It has a little flex but is great for middies and attacks.
* It works best with a mid-high pocket.
*  The lock mechanism is great, with zero wobble. 

CONS



* Not many string holes, but if strung well it doesn't matter.
* The throat lock was tough. I needed sandpaper to make it work.
* The ball stop has fallen off all three Warrior EVO 5 heads I have.


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

The Warrior Evo 5 was the head of choice by players such as UVA attackman Xander Dickson. It's made to be light and accurate with a ton of ball control. It's got a lot of sidewall holes that would allow for multiple sidewall patterns, so you have a ton of different stringing options. Some players like to do a high pocket with a little bit more whip, and some like a mid to low pocket for less whip and more control. This head is for players who'd like to have the ball lower in the pocket, but it's also versatile in what you can do with it.

### Expert Notes 

The Warrior Evo lacrosse head was made for offensive midfielders and attackmen. This elite level head is designed to have a lower pocket, giving players the power to have more control of the ball and allowing for more whip in the head of your stick. The neck of the head has two screw holes to anchor the Evo down to reduce the risk of breaking or rattling. The rail system of the head is stiffer and stronger, while reducing the weight to give you a faster shot. It also gives you the option to have a bunch of string holes to create your perfect pocket.

# ECD Lacrosse Rebel Lacrosse Heads

The ECD Rebel lacrosse head isn't afraid to shake things up. Available in both offensive and defensive versions, the Rebel caters to players who crave power, precision, and a bit of rebellion.

For attackers, the Rebel Offense boasts a slightly pinched scoop and aggressive flare, promising deadly accurate feeds and scorching shots. Meanwhile, the Rebel Defense focuses on dominance, featuring a tighter face shape for punishing checks, aggressive ground ball pickups, and powerful shots, thanks to its stiff construction. Both options share the Rebel's lightweight design and focus on control, making them well-suited for players who like to dictate the pace of the game.

The Rebel series represents a turning point for ECD, a brand known for its constant innovation and focus on player needs. The Rebel marked ECD's entry into the high-performance head market, carving a niche for players seeking an alternative to established brands. 


**Perfect head for:** both offensive and defensive players

### Top Competitor Comparisons (O): 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/stx/surgeon-900/l65241)

Designed for offensive versatility, the ECD Rebel Offense competes closely with the Maverik Optik 3.0 and STX Surgeon 900, each offering unique advantages. The Rebel Offense strikes a balance between power and control, featuring a slightly pinched pocket that facilitates strong shots and accurate passing. Its well-rounded scoop aids in ground ball pickups, making it a well-rounded offensive weapon. The Maverik Optik prioritizes power with a deeper pocket and a wider face shape, ideal for players who crank hard shots and value hold for aggressive dodges. Conversely, the STX Surgeon 900 leans towards a traditional approach with a shallower pocket and a balanced face shape, catering to players who prefer a mix of power, finesse, and pocket customization. 


### Top Competitor Comparisons (D): [STX Hammer 1K](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/hammer-1k/l339501) Lacrosse Head and the [StringKing Mark 2D](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/string-king/mark-2d/l759)

Aimed at providing defensive dominance, the ECD Rebel Defense goes head-to-head with the STX Hammer 1K and StringKing Mark 2D, each catering to specific defensive tactics. The Rebel Defense boasts a mid-pocket and a pinched face shape, offering a sweet spot for both powerful checks and controlled ground ball collection. The STX Hammer 1K features a wider face and a shallower pocket, excelling at scooping loose balls and winning ground ball battles in open spaces.

### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* I’ve strung both rebel offense and rebel defense heads. It’s by far my favorite head to string and play with. 
* It’s great for mid and low pockets, and very consistent passing and shooting.
* The pocket was a little shallow at first, but once I broke it in it worked great. 

CONS



* I think the Rebel Offense is a bit too stiff, I prefer a bit more flex for shooting.
* The stiffness of this head impacts the feel and pocket performance.
* A bit expensive compared to other options.


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

This head comes in an offense and defense model. The offense is easy to use. ECD always produces a perfect head. It's made with light and durable material. You can get a lot of use out of the Rebel without really trashing it. And the defensive head is made to be stiff. It won't bend in any way, which defensemen like, especially when playing at the higher level. The more checks you throw, the more warped a head can get. The sidewalls are solid on the Rebel. A player can throw some pretty strong checks.

Rabil

### Product Description 

With every aspect and feature designed by PLL superstar Paul Rabil, the Warrior Rabil lacrosse head offers signature power, speed, and accuracy, making it a perfect choice for advanced high school offensive players. The narrow face shape delivers superior accuracy for shooting and passing, while the TruOffset technology helps to increase the pocket depth for higher shot velocity. The flared sidewalls increase ball control when cradling, passing, and shooting. The Warrior Rabil features NOZ-assist technology which gives this head an ultra-lightweight feel. This head has the maximum legal pinch and the scoop features a pointy tip which helps increase shot accuracy and velocity. It has an eye-catching design with 2-shot multi-color sidewalls for maximum style.

### Expert Notes

The Warrior Rabil head was engineered to be an elite offensive head for playmakers and close-area shooters. The head was designed to have a narrow throat with reinforced sidewalls to improve ball retention and accuracy. Attackmen love the pinch of the head because it helps prevent defensemen from knocking the ball loose, while the ball remains centered in the channel. This helps create crisp passing and faster shots even during contact. Players also love the large amount of string holes on the sidewall which allows for pocket customization, though a mid-high pocket is optimal on this head.
