ELX Deadmau5 Tropi-ko Combo Review

Reviewing the incredibly interesting Deadmau5 x ELX flavor collaboration from E-Sports Nutrition® – Deadmau5 Tropi-Ko Combo! Read my review below to find out if the flavor is for you or not.

 

Introduction

 

It’s time for my ELX Deadmau5 Tropi-ko Combo review! I have been aching to review this flavor since it was first announced, so when I finally got my hands on it, I knew I had to strike fast! There aren’t that many reviews around about it, see. Heck, most of you all reading this might not even have heard about it – which is exactly what I am here for, to introduce you to new brands and flavors that might otherwise go unnoticed. 

 

I’ll discuss and talk about the design, taste and the overall experience of this collaborative flavor. I hope that this review will help you decide if ELX Deadmau5 Tropi-Ko Combo could be a flavor for you – or not!

Design

 

Now, I have to be honest, I haven’t really been that awestruck by ELX regular designs. They are very basic for the most part, with large black tubs with 4 colored spheres matching the flavor of the drink, and with simple lettering. And some tubs you can barely see a difference with, like with ELX Mango Madness and Orange Oblivion. Yes, they have a unique UV design for every tub, which is really cool, but who really has a blacklight at their setup? So all of them have gone mostly unnoticed for me, sadly.

ELX Deadmau5 Tropi-Ko Combo, however, is a step in the right direction. It’s still the black primary color of the tub, with a huge splash of orange on it, together with what is clearly a sliced pineapple – shaped like the well known Deadmau5 head. It brings forth the savory fruitiness of the flavor, and makes you more interested in checking the tub out, in my opinion. Now, this might very well be a collaborative flavor, but I still think that ELX should use this design as sort of a benchmark going forward when it comes to designs. It’s really unique, exciting and fresh, in my book.

ELX Deadmau5 Tropi-Ko Combo's design sticks out from the rest of their other flavors, with a more colorful label. It also tributes Deadmau5 well by including his iconic mouse head, disguised as a pineapple.

Taste

Now, I’ve mentioned before on various occasions that ELX has a pretty mild taste overall. That means it doesn’t taste as strong as other popular brands, like GFUEL or Gamer Supps. However, it can sometimes feel a good alternative when you’re not looking for something overly sweet. They have a certain mature taste to them, that I’m sure a lot would appreciate, while others maybe wouldn’t. 

For ELX Deadmau5 Tropi-Ko Combo, the strength of the flavor has been ramped up a bit. Not by a lot, but enough to feel a difference from previous flavors. The smell, taste and color is incredibly appetizing for this one, and reminds me of tropical fruit juice, like Glocken Gold, if you’ve ever heard about it or tried it. I highly recommend this flavor for anyone. 

Experience

The overall experience from drinking ELX Deadmau5 Tropi-Ko Combo was great! Just like any ELX drink, their active ingredients are nothing to mess with, especially considering the price you pay! To know more about the ingredients, you should check out my blog on ELX.

I can honestly say that the overall value you get from ELX makes it happier experience whenever you drink, especially considering that you don’t have to calculate double scoops and the amount of water you need. You just pour 400 ml of water into the shaker, mix with 1 whole scoop and voila! Easy as pie. You get a great focus and energy from just half a serving, so a whole one will probably keep you active throughout most of your day, whether it is school or work. Top tier! 

Summary

Overall, If it is a great, mature gaming drink you’re looking for, look no further than to ELX Deadmau5 Tropi-Ko Combo! It’s got a good middle-ground flavorwise, looks quite interesting on a shelf or by your gaming setup (especially if you got a blacklight!), and gives you an incredible experience through its great active ingredients. All that for a price that’s less than you would pay for other popular brands. So give it a go, why don’t you? 

I hope you enjoyed my ELX Deadmau5 Tropi-Ko Combo review! Make sure to check out some of our other flavor or brand reviews as well.
