The 2021 Victus Nox is a hybrid BBCOR Bat. It complements the Victus Vandal—which is a single-piece aluminum bat built with a light swing. Of all the data we gathered on the NOX, we found the swing weight lighter than we expected. For the 33-inch we were sent, the swing weight was 9150, which is about 50 points under the average 33-inch BBCOR. Bats like The Goods swing in the 9300 to 9400 range. The Nox should be considered an average or balanced swinging hybrid

The Victus Nox, for a first run bat, is fantastic. They claim the bat is endloaded, but our measurement showed it to be about average in the 33-Inch BBCOR market. The two-piece connection gives a semi…
Generally, mid range swinging two-piece hybrid bats perform much like the Voodoo or, these days, The Goods. It also uses the same tapered barrel wall found in other bats like the Vandal, CAT 8, Axe Hyerwhip, Rawlings VELO, and 5150s.

Victus added weight to the barrel to give it a heavier MOI. But, the marketing, with all respect, is the classic bat industry. It says it’s a balanced swing and a balanced approach. But, it isn’t. It’s all very confusing.
We find the bat to be average swinging—not end loaded. It is more balanced than it is end-loaded or hand loaded. At least, based on the 33-inch we were sent directly by Victus.
The bat is built for the average to good high school player that wants a big barrel, great feel and hot out of the wrapper performance. The connective piece should convince most that every hit is a bomb and save the hands from vibration.
Price Check
Not much has changed on the 2019 DeMarini Voodoo Balanced. It’s still a two-piece hybrid bat with a reasonably balanced swing, good barrel profile, and relativity stiffer feel than the two-piece composite world. The bat is very popular and difficult to find but everyone who has ever had the bat loves it. There is another version of this bat that has a heavier swing and a very stiff feel called the DeMarini Voodoo Loaded.
Our feedback on the 2017 Marucci CAT 7 connect is derived from 3 hours of use among several different hitters
See the Vandal Review
Our 2020 Victus Vandal review comes after hitting with the bat more than 200 times with 3 different hitters. In short, the 2020 Vandal’s inner barrel design and exit speeds make it a legit single piece aluminum bat with a premium price, great look and reasonable enough performance to serve the serious hitter. The barrel size is good but not functionally bigger than other comparable bats like the Solo. We think the 2020 Victus Vandal price is more than its performance and design deserves but, not more than it’s vibe and unique Victus brand should get.
