I like Mantis but it's not on the same level as Raptor...especially with it's 90 minute waits of late.

I love raptor much better. But I need to have front on that type of ride.

Although they are both B&M's, I think that Raptor easily wins this.

Raptor. The only value that the Mantis has is that it keeps people out of other que lines.

Apples and oranges guy. I might prefer one over the other, but to say one is better......Can't do it.

Well looking at a poll given by DBCahill (on this site), that has been growing like wildfire, Raptor, is winning with a total of 3 votes against it. Mantis was eliminated after the 4th round!
Hmmm... I think Raptor is the favorite. ;)

Well, I have to honestly be a rebel and say that I prefer Mantis. I really enjoy the feeling of standing while going through all of the elements. It is especially awsome when I sit in the front. I notice the sensation of standing on Mantis, much more than I notice the sensation of dangling legs on Raptor.
Both are great rides.

...and enjoy the rest of your day at Cedar Point, The Am-aaaa-zement park!

Well, remember how Raptor "magicly" got faster this season (because of the paint on the rails), well just think of Mantis next year! The intensity on this ride will be unparalleled with any other ride at Cedar Point.
I haven't decided on which is my favorite...ask me next year after I ride Mantis when it has a new coat of paint.
