The MVP Octane is a stable-understable distance driver from the new high speed 23mm class. Octane falls in the general stability lineage of Switch, Amp, Inertia, and Wave, with a slight-turn profile that holds long and straight until its fade finish. The 23mm Octane is designed to be relatively less understable than its 21.5mm counterpart Wave. Average throwers should see straight flights with fade, while power throwers will be able to hyzerflip for max distance and tailwind lines.

A friend gifted a L2 Neutron Octane and I followed up with this and a Proton to check out the different feels and stabilities. Still working out roles in the bag, but it'll go like stink on the forehand (where I have better spin) and still functions admirably as a stable backhand option. I can lean into the flex a bit from either side with full confidence that we're going to get a solid, stable finish.
