The 2020 Combat B2 is a JustBats production---who acquired enough of the intellectual property rights during Combat's bankruptcy in 2018 to somehow produce a bat with the name Combat. The B2 is taken from a 2014/15 Combat bat but is put on a reprtin of the Combat Maxum from 2018. That entails the 2020 Combat B2 you see here. We think the Combat Maxum from 2018 was a good to great bat.
Models Overview
Our hitters like the single-piece feel of the 2020 Combat B2. It's a light swing in BBCOR and USSSA. The drop 5 is a fan favorite as the heavier swing weight and massive barrel make for a fun hit.

Performance Comparison
The Combat B2 is a JustBats sponsored and produced bat under the intellectual property rights they acquired during Combat parent company's bankruptcy. We aren't sure how it all works, but in any event, JustBats has retained the rights to both produce and sell a bat with the Combat name exclusively.
The Combat B2 takes the name from a 2014/15 Combat line and puts it on the Combat Maxum from 2018---which this 2020 B2 ATB is an exact replica of.
Comparable Bats
Other single-piece bats in the composite space include the Maxum series from Easton and Combat.
The Bottom Line
After years of going undetected, one of the hottest bats of the past is back! JustBats is reintroducing the Combat B2 for the season, looking to no longer go Under the Radar! The COMBAT B2 ATB -11 USSSA Baseball Bat: SL20B211 utilizes ATB Composite construction, which incorporates computer controlled precision providing the most technologically advanced barrel in the game. This one piece, fully composite model will be stiff on contact, offers a well balanced swing weight, and a large sweet spot making it a great option for any type of young hitter!
