The Poison Maelith is the dark aesthetic series in the Poison by Predator lineup. Every Maelith cue is built around the Venom Carbon Fiber shaft engineered by Predator, with a Radial joint, stainless steel accents, and dark colorways that range from all-black to black and red, gray, and pink. The performance specs are identical to the rest of the Poison range, what changes is the visual direction.
What Defines the Maelith Series
The Maelith is built around a consistent set of design and construction decisions that set it apart from the Candy series and the rest of the Poison lineup:
1
Dark Colorways With Shadow-Point Architecture
Colorways include all-black, black and red, black and gray, dark and light gray, and pink and black. The silver Maelith emblem on the handle or butt sleeve and Poison logo bumper complete the look.
2
Venom Carbon Fiber Shaft — 12.4mm
The Venom shaft is the Predator engineered carbon fiber shaft at the heart of every Poison cue. The 12.4mm diameter delivers low-deflection performance, reducing cue ball squirt so your aim translates more accurately to the shot. Carbon fiber also resists warping regardless of humidity or temperature, so the shaft plays the same in every environment.
3
Radial Joint With Stainless Steel Accents
The Radial joint provides a precise, balanced connection between butt and shaft. Two stainless steel rings on the black joint collar add a premium hardware detail that reinforces the cue's overall aesthetic without being decorative for its own sake.
4
No-Wrap Handle
Every Maelith cue uses a no wrap handle, giving you direct contact with the butt for clean feedback through the stroke without the added texture of linen or leather. Players who prefer a bare grip will appreciate the unobstructed feel. Every Maelith cue also ships with Radial joint protectors and a soft Poison cue bag included.
Maelith vs. Candy — Which Poison Series Is Right for You?
Both the Maelith and Candy series share the same Venom Carbon Fiber shaft and core Poison construction. The difference is entirely in visual direction:
Maelith — Dark, Bold, Aggressive+
Deep black and dark colorways, long shadow-point architecture, carbon fiber striping, and stainless hardware. Built for players who want their gear to project a commanding presence at the table without being loud or colorful about it.
Candy — Vibrant, Expressive, Bold Color+
Bright, vibrant two-tone colorways with 3D-textured grips and metallic accents. Built for players who want carbon fiber performance wrapped in a cue that stands out for its color and energy rather than its darkness. Browse the
Poison Candy series if you want something bolder and more colorful.
