The steeze is quite a bit stiffer, and a little turnier than the Made'n/AK enemy. It also only comes in one size thats any use (unless you're really short). It measures a couple cms longer than the 179 Made'n/AK Enemy, and is likely to be a much more versitile ski. If you look closely at the specs, it is a Scratch BC + 12mm at every dimension, so it will likely ski quite similarly to the BC, just fatter.
All reviews I've heard of it make it out to be a fabulous all mountain ski despite its girth. A buddy of mine is buying them for just that. It will rule the pow trees and groomers, but likely be a little out of place when absolutely ripping or in the crud cause its a medium flex. I would say it would be a better ski than the Made'n/AK enemy for pretty much everything except park and perhaps BC booters.
Also, if you don't like the graphics, try and find the Rossi Raven. Its the tele version of the ski but is exactly the same except with much more subdued graphics.

Didn't I already mention its only a couple cms difference? The 179 Made'n/AK Enemy measures to about 182 and the Steeze measures to about 184.
