The Game Changer has the Traxion 0.39 from the Game Plan and the all-new V5 core. This is very exciting for me, because I loved the V2 core.
The thing that surprised me the most about this ball was the amount of hook I saw. It was way stronger than any of the other Gamebreaker-series balls.
The Game Changer clears the front, but reads the midlane really well and then has a very strong backend, which definitely makes it better suited for opening up your angles.
I think this piece will do very well on heavier volumes and longer patterns. It also looks like a ball I can use from start to finish in a block, because of the great midlane and strong backend.
I used it this weekend at the Danish Championships to bowl the only 300 of the tournament, lead going in to the stepladder and win the silver.
It responds very well to surface changes as I used it in a light 360 grit all weekend.

The Game Changer is another interesting realease from Ebonite in the mid price performance series. The former reviews that I have made of the Ebonite mid price series, clearly shows my enthusiasm aboute these, and this ball is no exception.
For the EMC 2011 I needed a very stable and controllable ball that I could use on the fresh long oil, and the Game Changer was my first choice. With a controllable drilling and a symmetric core, it doesn´t do that much in the backend but it saves enough energy to the pindeck. The combinations and opportunities with this ball seems to be quite high!

Much more ball than anticipated. This ball is supposed to be the new Gamebreaker.
While I do see similarities through the heads and midlane, I also see a much more violent chance of direction once the ball hit friction. I like how I can open up the lane with this piece. It handles oil really well and doesn’t quit on the backend. This is a ball for longer and/or high volume patterns.
