Buy the Nox ML10 Pro Cup if you're a committed defensive right-side player; the Adidas RX Series suits more styles for less money.
Intermediate teardrop against premium round shape.
The Adidas RX Series at £100-110 is a versatile intermediate: 360-375g teardrop, medium balance, EVA Soft Performance core, carbon fibre face. It does most things competently and won't punish off-centre hits.
The Nox ML10 Pro Cup at £180 is Miguel Lamperti's signature racket — a control-focused round shape built for defensive players and right-side specialists. The ML10 line is famous for its enormous sweetspot and forgiving feel.
This comes down to court position and style. If you play the right side, build points, and rely on glass play, the ML10 Pro Cup will reward your style with control and a huge sweetspot. If you play more aggressively or you're still developing your style, the RX Series teardrop suits you better.
The RX is the safer first upgrade for most intermediate players. The ML10 is a specialist tool — buy it because it suits your game, not because it's pricier.
