[MVP] MVP Ion?

My 171 proton ion has been my hands down favorite disc forever. Still flies like new. Thinking of getting a 155 plasma ion for fun. How will they compare?
I just ordered one. I'm thinking about overhauling my putting game with a focus on spin putting and it seemed like a good excuse to try a Plaz Ion.
Respect.

Is there anywhere that has a breakdown of the various valuable Ions? I'm curious as I found one that is bright green, and looks like the one attached except it's green. I also found one that is blue metal flake, and said it was soft proton, but I think it said it right below ION IIRC.

Throwback ions don't really have much value, soft proton even less.
If you're looking for history of the ion mold though, try this link

Great firmer neutron with generally big beads and makes for nice putting putter. I own many and love this run but it is just an ION these days with a misleading stamp lol.
So, how many of you are using Electron for an understable Ion?

I tried putting with an electron ion, but didnt find it stable enough and was missing right on longer putts.. Decided to try soft electron envy and its exactly what i wanted. if you want more understable than neutron though the electron ion is perfect!
never found electron to be less os than its counterparts in diff plastic however i only have the first run electrons i just gave a freshie to a friend that is just starting i think i was happier to get rid of it than he was to have a free disc

The Ions i have may be different than new ion runs ive heard they changed bead size or something? Anyways, the new electron ion i bought is a little different from the rest of my old ones i bought probably 5 or more years ago.
The new electron neutron i just got turns over, the old first run of soft proton and neutron that i have is beef.

If I were to bag one of the Electron molds, it would be the Ions. They don't feel so tall and are perfect stability for times when I'd be throwing them. I'd still rather bag Wizards though.

I just prefer the mold in general. They fit like a glove from the first fondling. I've even begun to enjoy throwing them of the tee. While I was pretty critical in the initial (lack of) difference in the early electron and soft, they've shown their true colors being in my practice basket, and they're both great for what they are. And very different, even in higher (mid-90s) temps. When friends and I play horseshoes on the Portals one stack is Wizards. The other is a mix of Atoms and Ions. Never thought I'd say that. It's a start, right?
i can respect that
i use the wiz in my description of wiz ion and aviar with wiz being glideless ion being the middle and aviar being floaty
its turned a lot of people onto the wiz who kinda like the ion or aviar but not really
I have two Plasmas that have been good but I bet they're gonna be amazing with some wear.
i have one beat to piss
throw flat just straight
throw on hyzer and it holds
anny holds too

I've been putting with the same yellow neutron Ion for the last 5 years. MVP discs seem almost indestructible to me. Is it normal to be using the same putter for that long?
