# Maverik Havok 2.0 Head

The Maverik Havok 2.0 Lacrosse Head continues the legacy of its predecessor as a top choice for elite defensemen and LSMs (Long Stick Midfielders). It features a tighter face shape for enhanced control and increased stiffness through a redesigned 4-strut design, aiming to deliver powerful checks and disrupt offensive plays. The scoop is specifically engineered to excel at ground ball pickups, making it easier to gain possession and transition the ball upfield.

Maverik has a history of prioritizing innovation and performance in their lacrosse equipment, and the Havok 2.0 embodies this focus. It represents a refinement of a successful design, incorporating player feedback and advancements in materials to solidify Maverik's position as a leader in defensive lacrosse equipment. 


 **Perfect head for:** elite defensemen and LSM


### Key Features Include



* Perfectly engineered scoop angle explicitly designed to pick up groundballs
* XRAIL Technology is engineered to distribute stress to the opposite rail creating a lightweight and stiff design.
* DURATOUGH Materials increase stiffness and provide consistency in all weather conditions.
* CONTROL CORE is designed with redistributed mass in the scoop and throat to decrease weight, increase stiffness, and enhance ball control.


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [Warrior Evo QX2-D](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-qx2-d/l350399) and the [Maverik Tank 2.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/maverik/tank-2-0/l164354)

The Maverik Tactic 2.0 carves its niche with a well-rounded design for diverse midfielders. It faces competition from the Warrior Evo QX2-D and fellow Maverik offering, the Tank 2.0. The Evo QX2-D prioritizes defensive midfielders with its stiff construction, close fit, and narrow face shape, ideal for disrupting opposing offenses. The Tank 2.0, on the other hand, leans towards offensive midfielders with its wider face shape and deeper pocket, facilitating powerful shots and passes. Compared to these, the Tactic 2.0 strikes a balance, offering a mid-pocket suitable for both controlled passing and decent shooting power. Its scoop design sits in the middle ground, making it adequate for ground ball pickups without excelling in either offense or defense.


### Progression:

The Havok lacrosse head series features two models: the Havok and the Havok 2. Here's a breakdown of their progression: 


[Maverik Havok](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/maverik/havok/l7600) 



* Designed for aggressive defensemen, long-stick midfielders, and face-off wings
* Good for a mid-high pocket
* Incorporates Ground Control tech so players can scoop ground balls from any angle. 

[Maverik Havok 2.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/maverik/havok-2-0/l272008) 



* 4-strut design: increased stiffness for stronger checks
* New strut orientation: improved balance and feel
* Tighter pocket: enhanced control and feel for passion and shooting


### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* I used the Havok for four years, then upgraded to the Havok 2.0. It's lighter, sturdier, and has a better face shape. The scoop is good and has 20 sidewall holes instead of 17. I would recommend it to anyone.
* Switched from the OG Havok to Havok 2.0. Improved stringing options and efficiency at picking up ground balls. Durable enough for checks.
* My sons love the Havok 2.0 head. I like the blue color so I can spot him from the stands!

CONS



* The Havok 2.0 has a decent amount of stringing holes, but not as many as some other options, which might limit pocket customization for some players
* The head was slightly heavier than expected, impacting my agility and maneuverability during checks.
* Mine cracked after only a few months. Although I am pretty hard on my heads. 


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

Building off of the first Havok, this head is for the playmaking LSM and defensemen. Maverik made two changes with this head, the first being a tighter face for more ball control for defensive players who like to carry the ball. The second change is increased stiffness to the head to avoid warping when throwing a variety of checks.
