What is your suggestion Warrior or Fireball. It will be open in the house so if I found a used Tornado I would have to redo the laminate wife said no marble. I'm new to foosball currently have a sportcraft that isn't cutting it the table is level but the ball still moves like it's not level

JMO, I would suggest purchasing in this order:
1. Tornado- You can redo laminate or get a newer icebox version. This is the most popular table and if you end up playing tournaments it will likely be on one of these.
2. Warrior- New table is supposed to be good. Also will likely have more options if it comes to playing tournaments than a Fireball will.
3. Fireball- Very well made table but likely has less tournament support than the other 2 tables.
All 3 are well made and if you just want to play w/ friends any of them will work fine. 9/10 tournaments are going to be played on Tornado though, so if you ever get serious you will likely want to have the real thing at home so you can practice.

Thanks I'm leaning towards Warrior for the price as of now it is friends and beer night. How do they play different? What is the ice box version.
What about 3 man vs 1 man goalies doea the ball get stuck in the corner?

Ice box is a silver finished cabinet. I'm sure if you search for it you can find a pic online. I don't have the energy right now to go into all the differences in play, but they are fairly significant. Warrior plays a bit slower than a Tornado and lends itself to a more old school style (more front pin/ back pin). 3 man v. 1 man goalie is not a huge difference. The 1 man goalie has ramps that keep the ball from getting stuck.
