I’m really happy with my Pulsar Hyperion Pro.
I haven’t tried an Artisan myself, but with Lethal Gaming Gear partnering with Pulsar, I’d imagine the Hyperion Pro is pretty much on par with Artisan in terms of quality.
The Zowie EC2-DW has been benched, and I’m now using the Pulsar Xlite Crazylight Medium. It feels much lighter in the hand, and the skates are noticeably faster. Going back to the Zowie, it feels heavier and a lot slower, which is why I’ve stuck with the Crazylight for now.
Always wanted to try the Crazylight, although couldn’t justify paying full price, but I pulled the trigger when it was 50% off.
