YINHE (Milkyway) Mercury Y-15 is an offensive blade, one of the inexpensive, but very successful, produced according to the 5 + 2 scheme (5 layers of wood + 2 layers of carbon). It is focused on different styles of attacking play, primarily with smooth rubbers, but the pimples on it will also be quite appropriate. It resembles the popular BUTTERFLY Timo Boll Spirit in feel and properties, but it costs several times less.
This blade was recently developed and released in a modern, more elegant design, in contrast to the old series of YINHE (Milkyway) blades, the design of which was rather minimalistic. However, the game properties and quality of performance have not undergone changes - as it was at the highest level, it remains. YINHE (Milkyway) has very strict quality control in the production of bases.
In terms of playing properties, we can say that the power is quite enough even for the most aggressive playing styles, both based on power topspins and using flat strikes. When retreating to the far zone, it is easy to keep the ball in play with counter-spins, if necessary, defend with candles, and switch to counter-attack when creating a suitable situation. Block stability and ease of launching attacks are also among the Mercury Y-15's strengths.
