warlock plastics

can anyone enlighten me on the plastics gateway is using for their warlocks?
discgolfcenter.com is showing they offer S, SS, and SSS. i was wondering how soft these actually are in comparison to innova plastics (im new to gateway) and the texture of the plastics, i prefer a glossier, tackier blend (like a star plastic) compared to the the chalky feel of a DX plastic. what would the best choice be since i cant go physically feel them before i order online.

I may be wrong, but I think the letters mean as follows:
S- Soft
SS- Super soft
SSS- Super Stupid Soft

It doesn't sound like any of these are what you want. They're certainly nothing like Star plastic.

I have a regular Wizard and the plastic may be closest to a DX Aviar, but it's still a little soft, kind of like a JK Aviar. I've never used a Warlock, though.

I've got an SSS Warlock and its plastic is most like Innova's Pro, but it's a lot more flexible.

So does anyone have any suggestions? i recently switched from a straddle put to one foot in-line putting, so i figured i might as well give some other putters a try while im revamping things just to see what other options are out there. id like to test other putters (i currently use DX aviar p&a) with no bead in star similar plastics(i throw star drivers and get much more consistent releases), any suggestions?

Warlocks also come in E-line plastic which is comparable to Innova's Champion.
