The Metheora+ is StarVie's versatile model of the season: hybrid shape and medium balance result in behaviour that leans neither one way nor the other. The 12K carbon frame gives clear feedback, while the EVA Balance core keeps the hardness in the middle range. At around 370 grams the weight is at the upper end, which brings stability against fast balls. We have not played this model ourselves; the information comes from the manufacturer.
At 370 g, it is heavier than three quarters of all models in our comparison: that puts mass behind the ball and adds stability against hard shots, but costs reaction speed at the net. Head shape Teardrop means: the sweet spot sits a little higher – more punch in attack than a round racket, more forgiving than a diamond; plus the medium balance as the all-round standard. The medium-hard core balances feedback and comfort. With power 8 and control 8 out of 10, it is evenly geared towards power and precision.
With a forgiveness rating of 4.9 out of 10, it is less forgiving than 77% of the teardrop-shaped rackets in our comparison. 8 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €212.92 to €297.35 – a €84 difference for the same model.

Our classification: Intermediate. Its forgiveness is 4.9 out of 10 – balanced.
The StarVie Metheora+ 2027 weighs 370 g and has a teardrop shape, a medium balance and a medium-hard core (EVA Balance). The frame is made of Carbon 12K.
Not by our rule: the core is medium-hard, 370 g is above 360 g. We only call rackets arm-friendly if they have a soft core, a balance that isn't head-heavy, a round or teardrop shape and weigh 360 g at most. Suitable models are listed in our guide to padel rackets for tennis elbow.
On 14/11/2026, Padel Nuestro was the cheapest of 8 shops in our comparison at €212.92 including shipping. The price applies with the discount code OURPRIME. We check prices daily; the current ones are at the top of this page.
The closest matches in shape, hardness, balance, weight and price: Bullpadel Vertex 05 Hybrid 2026 (8.6/10), Siux Diablo Elite 2027 (Tino Libaak) (7.6/10) and Bullpadel Hack 04 Hybrid 2025 (8.5/10).
Vertex 05 in hybrid form: more sweet spot, hardly any loss of power.
Versatile teardrop with medium balance, 3K carbon faces and a medium-hardness EVA core – well balanced in its set-up, but on the heavy side at 368 g.
Colour/edition variant of the Bullpadel Hack 04 Hybrid 2026: technically identical (same shape, same MultiEVA core, same frame), just a different look.
