The verdict
Hyperia shades it 3–2. Close enough that calling the wrong stat hands the round over.
Hyperia is a steel Hypercoaster coaster at Thorpe Park, GB, built by Mack Rides. Nemesis Reborn is a steel Inverted Coaster (full retrack of 1994 Nemesis) coaster at Alton Towers, GB, built by Bolliger & Mabillard.
Both are in GB, which puts them in the same conversation for anyone planning a trip there.
Both are steel-track, so nothing here is the usual steel-versus-wood argument in disguise.
They are near-contemporaries — 2024 and 2024 — so they were competing for the same riders when they opened.
