Metal Fight Beyblade

2008-07-03T00:58:54Z

Beywiki: /* External Links */

[[Image: MFBLogo.JPG|thumb| Metal Fight Beyblade logo]]
After an indefinite hiatus in 2005, where [[Takara]] suspended the [[Beyblade]] toyline, Beyblade is set to return this August with an anime and manga following in 2009. Takara-Tomy (Takara merged with Tomy in 2006) is currently aiming for 20 billion yen (approximately $200 million USD) in yearly revenue by next year. This new generation of Beyblades name has been translated as [[Metal Fight Beyblade]] (MFB) and on ''August 9th, 2008'' will be released to the public.

To celebrate the release of Metal Fight Beyblade, TAKARA-TOMY will be hosting two events on ''July 12th, 2008'' and ''July 21st, 2008'', under the name of "METAL FIGHT BEYBLADE BIRTH FESTIVAL".
__TOC__

==Components of MFBs==
[[Image:MFBchart.jpg|thumb|MFB Chart]]
There is four parts that make up a Metal Fight Beyblade:
*'''Face:''' Hexagonal disc that fastens the Beyblade together, similar to [[Bit Protector]] from the [[HMS]]. They feature graffiti-style illustrations on the top (i.e. Bull, Pegasus, etc).
*'''Wheel:''' Main source of attack from a Beyblade; unlike HMS, the Wheel is completely made out of metal to compensate for the lack of a Weight Disk. They use various shaped protrusions to lower the [[spin velocity]] of an opponent. The Wheel is fundamentally the same as the Attack Ring from the HMS and [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic Beyblades]].
*'''Track:''' Taking a step backwards, MFB has separated the spin direction part from the bottom, thus turning it into two pieces again (as it was in the plastic generation). The height and spin direction of a Beyblade can be changed with this. Similar to Spin Gear from plastic Beyblades.
*'''Bottom:''' The bottom of the Beyblade. It has interchangeable tips which the Beyblade spins on. Movement patterns can be altered with the differently shaped tips that can be used. It is similar to the Blade Base from plastic Beyblades or the Running Core from HMS.

===Types===
There is four different types of MFBs:
*[[Survival | Stamina]]
*[[Balance]]
*[[Attack]]
*[[Defense]]

These can be easily compared to the types of the plastic generation, the only difference being that survival/endurance is being called stamina.

===Size Difference===
Metal Fight Beyblade's will be significantly smaller than [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]] Beyblades, and slightly smaller than those of the HMS series.

==Shooter==
The shooters in Metal Fight Beyblade do not have multi-directional capabilities, as was possible with the [[HMS#The Dual Shooter and G-Winder | Dual Shooter]] in [[HMS]]. Of the pictures released so far, it seems as if they have reverted to the [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]] style of winder. Grip design is very similar to the [[Shooters and Grips | HMS Customize Grip]]. Some of the launchers also appear to have a screen, which implies that there may be some information such as RPM (rotations per minute) displayed when a Beyblade is launched.

==Stadiums==
Only two stadiums has been revealed so far, “Attack” and “Balance”; both are comparable to HMS stadiums, except for the fact that instead of a circular centre, it has a hexagonal shape just as the Face does.

==Currently Confirmed Metal Fight Beyblades (and prices/release dates)==

==International Development==
At a recent event where Takara-Tomy showcased MFB, they stated that expansion into overseas countries is being planned for 2010. No specifics were given, such as the company that will handle production, distribution, etc.

==Conclusion==
This page will be updated as new information arrives and when these Beyblades are released, until then no conclusions can be made.

Beywiki:

A Zombie customization is a Beyblade combo that is designed to:

* Steal spin from the opponent
* Have "life after death"

__TOC__

==Spin Stealing==

The most commonly known aspect of Zombie Beyblades, spin stealing refers to when your Beyblade uses the momentum of the opposing Beyblade to keep itself spinning. To do this, your Beyblade must be spinning in the opposite direction of the opponent's Beyblade. When the opponent's Beyblade hits yours, your Beyblade will use the rotation of the other Beyblade to propel itself to keep moving.

==Life After Death==

The origin of the name "Zombie" is not its ability to steal spin, but its "life after death" ability. To have this ability, your Beyblade must be perfectly round at the points it touches the stadium when it falls over.

==Parts Selection==

To build a true Zombie, there is a very specific list of parts that will work correctly. Below you will find a list of parts that will work with Zombie Beyblades along with their advantages and disadvantages.

===Attack Rings===

* '''Wing Cross ([[Bistool]], [[Gekiryu-oh]], [[Ultimate Frostic Dranzer]]:''' This AR is very light and the weight is distributed evenly. Unfortunately, this AR can only be used in right spin.

* '''Gyro AR ([[Bearing Gyros Magical Barancer]], [[Bearing Gyros Magical Layer]], [[Bearing Gyros Magical Stander]]):''' This AR is the perfect AR for [[Survival]]-type Beyblades. It has a perfectly round form with four small wings to steal spin. However, the Beyblades it originates from are incredibly rare.

* '''Twin Horn ([[Gabriel]]):''' This AR has a very round shape and small notches to steal spin from the opposing Beyblade. It also has a small amount of smash attack that can occasionally knock out the opposing Beyblade. Unfortunately, this can also cause Beyblades using Twin Horn to recoil.

* '''Tiger Defenser ([[Driger S]], Hasbro's [[Jumping Base]]):''' This AR is very compact and has small points where it can steal spin.

* '''War Lion ([[Galeon]], [[BBA Balancer]]):''' This AR is very compact and has small points where it can steal spin. Also, War Lion's [[free-spinning]] Sub-Ring prevents it from being hit hard by the opposing Beyblade.

* '''Turtle Survivor ([[Metal Draciel]], [[Master Dranzer]]):''' One of the less popular choices, it has great potential. It is very lightweight with perfect balance, and the four wings line up perfectly with [[Wide Survivor]] to steal spin.

===Weight Disks===

* [[Wide Survivor]] is the only proper choice for a Zombie combo. Its perfectly circular shape allows for life-after-death and lines up with most ARs well enough to steal spin. Some players who could not obtain Wide Survivor have attempted to build "Zombie-likes" using either [[Wide Defense]] or [[10-Wide]]. However, these combos will not work as effectively.

===Spin Gears===

* '''Bearing Base ([[Metal Dragoon Bearing Stinger]]):''' Although this BB does not have an SG, the metal shaft can be placed in Bearing SG ([[Wolborg]]) and Bearing SG 2 ([[Wolborg 2]]) to allow compatibility with [[4-Layer]] and [[5-Layer]] customization.

* '''Bearing SG ([[Wolborg]]):''' The most basic tip selection. However, only the [[Takara]] version is suitable; [[Hasbro]]'s Bearing SG has design flaws in the sharpness of the tip and the straightness of the shaft.

* '''Bearing SG 2 ([[Wolborg 2]]):''' Using this tip, you will sacrifice [[Survival]] for [[Defense]] ability. If you are facing a Beyblade with a significant amount of [[Attack]] ability, this tip may be a better choice than the others.

* '''Bearing Core ([[Burning Kerberus]]):''' Not to be confused with [[Wolborg MS]]'s Bearing Core, this Bearing Core is inserted into a [[Neo SG]]. Bearing Core is unique in that it has three bearings: two in the shaft and one in the tip. The one in the tip cannot be replaced, but the ones in the shaft can. It includes one [[NSK shield bearing]] and one [[metal bearing]]; you must replaced the metal bearing with an NSK shield bearing. The tip of Bearing Core is sharper than the previous tips, but it also has a lower angle that allows it to be shot into Attack-mode like a [[Metal Change]] tip.

===Blade Bases===

* '''Bearing Base ([[Metal Dragoon Bearing Stinger]]):''' This BB, like the SG of [[Burning Kerberus]], can hold two [[NSK shield bearings]]. However, one of the included bearings is a [[metal bearing]] and must be replaced. Unfortunately, this BB can't be shot in left spin.

* '''Defense Grip 2 ([[Wolborg 2]]):''' A round an evenly-weighted base that serves itself well to all of the above-listed SGs except for Bearing Core. However, this BB cannot use SP (Support Parts).

* '''Customize Grip ([[Dragoon V2]]):''' Dragoon V2's tip can be removed and Bearing SG, Bearing SG 2 and Bearing Core can all be inserted. This BB is the only way to use Bearing SG and Bearing SG 2 in conjunction with SP.

* '''Customize Bearing ([[Burning Kerberus]]):''' Only the Bearing Core can fit into this BB; however, it is sleeker and smaller than Customize Grip.

===Support Parts===

* '''Cross Survivor ([[Dranzer V2]]):''' These SP slope upwards to protect against [[Upper Attack]], and have four symmetrical notches that can steal spin in either spin direction.

* '''Defense Ring ([[Voltaic Ape]]):''' These SP are perfectly round with small bumps running along the edge that will assist slightly in spin-stealing.

* '''Survivor Ring ([[Dark Series]]):''' These SP are perfectly round with three small wings that assist greatly in stealing spin. Must be used with a left-spin Beyblade.

Metal Fight Beyblade

2008-06-16T20:34:11Z

Beywiki: /* External Links */

After an indefinite hiatus in 2005, where [[Takara]] suspended the [[Beyblade]] toyline, Beyblade is set to return this August with an anime following in 2009. Takara-Tomy (Takara merged with Tomy in 2006) is currently aiming for 20 billion yen (approximately $200 million USD) in yearly revenue by next year. This new generation of Beyblades name has been translated as [[Metal Fight Beyblade]] (MFB) and on ''August 9th, 2008'' will be released to the public.
__TOC__

==Components of MFBs==
There is four parts that make up a Metal Fight Beyblade:
*'''Face:''' Hexagonal disc that fastens the Beyblade together, similar to [[Bit Protector]] from the [[HMS]]. They feature graffiti-style illustrations on the top (i.e. Bull, Pegasus, etc).
*'''Wheel:''' Main source of attack from a Beyblade. They use various shaped protrusions to lower [[spin velocity]] of opponent. The Wheel is fundamentally the same as the Attack Ring from the HMS and [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic Beyblades]].
*'''Track:''' Taking a step backwards, MFB has separated the spin direction part from the bottom, thus turning it into two pieces again (as it was in the plastic generation). The height and spin direction of a Beyblade can be changed with this. Similar to Spin Gear from plastic Beyblades.
*'''Bottom:''' The bottom of the Beyblade. It has interchangeable tips which the Beyblade spins on. Movement patterns can be altered with the differently shaped tips that can be used. It is similar to the Blade Base from plastic Beyblades or the Running Core from HMS.

===Types===
There is four different types of MFBs:
*[[Survival | Stamina]]
*[[Balance]]
*[[Attack]]
*[[Defense]]

These can be easily compared to the types of the plastic generation, the only difference being that survival/endurance is being called stamina.

==Launcher/Shooter==
The launchers in Metal Fight Beyblade do not have multi-directional capabilities, as was possible with the [[HMS#The Dual Shooter and G-Winder | Dual Shooter]] in [[HMS]]. Of the pictures released so far, it seems as if they have reverted to the [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]] style of winder. Grip design is very similar to the [[HMS Customize Grip]]. Some of the launchers also appear to have a screen, which implies that there may be some information such as RPM (rotations per minute) displayed when a Beyblade is launched.

==Stadiums==
Only two stadiums has been revealed so far, “Attack” and “Balance”; both are comparable to HMS stadiums, except for the fact that instead of a circular centre, it has a hexagonal shape just as the Face does.

Special Parts

2008-06-14T17:04:15Z

Beywiki: Reverted edits by Unkown (Talk); changed back to last version by Kei

With [[Beyblade]]s, there are other parts aside from the basic Attack Ring, Weight Disk, Spin Gear, and Beyblade Base.

__TOC__

----

=== Sub Ring ===
----
The Sub Ring is an extra part of certain Attack Rings. The Sub Ring serves as a secondary ring that spins freely. Also, any Attack Ring that is cabable of fitting a Sub Ring must have a Sub Ring with it. 

The following Beyblades come with a subring: 
* [[Galzzly]]
* [[Galman]]
* [[Galeon]]
* [[Guardian Driger]]
* [[Gaia Dragoon]]
* [[Gaia Dragoon V]]
* [[Gaia Dragoon G]]
* [[Gabriel]]
* [[Dark Gaia Dragoon]]
* [[Dark Dragoon]]
* [[Dark Dranzer]]
* [[Dark Driger]]
* [[Dark Draciel]]
* [[Zeus]] 

=== Base Ring ===
----
The Base Ring is a part that comes with the [[Beyblade]] Base SG Wing Base found on Takara's Gabriel and [[Cyber Dragoon Battle Spec.]] The base is capable of holding sub rings so it must have one with it. 

=== Support Parts ===
----
Support parts are parts of the [[Beyblade]] Base that first came in the V2 Series Beyblades. The Support Parts can be customized onto Beyblade Bases capable of bearing Support Parts. 

List of Support Parts:
* Reverse Attack ([[Dragoon V2]])
* Upper Attack ([[Driger V2]])
* Defense Ring ([[Voltic Ape]])
* Cross Survival ([[Dranzer V2]])
* Cross Attack ([[Burning Kerberous]])
* Fin Tector ([[Draciel V2]])
* Over Attack ([[Uriel 2]] Takara only)
* Survivor Ring (Dark Series Beyblades)
* Twin Guard

*Note: ''[[Gaia Dragoon V]] is the only V2 Series Beyblade without Support Parts'' 

=== Bearing and Shaft ===
----
The Bearing and Shaft are parts of certain Free Spinning Spin Gears seen in these Beyblades: 
* [[Bearing Stinger]]
* [[Dranzer S]]
* [[Driger F]]
* [[Wolborg]]
* [[Wolborg 2]]
* [[Burning Kerberous]]
* [[Zeus]] ([[Takara]] ver.)
 
The Bearing is a device to permit constrained relative motion between two parts, typically rotation or linear movement while the shaft is an axle, attached with a tip, that is inserted into the bearing which allows for the free spinning Spin Gear to work.

=== Metal Balls ===
----
Metal Balls are balls that goes into the bases of most of the [[Draciel]] bases. All of the Draciels except for [[Draciel MS]] have some sort of Metal Balls located in the Beyblade Base, but they can only be removed or added, in [[Metal Ball Defense]], [[Draciel S]],[[Draciel F]]. [[Draciel V]], [[Draciel V2]], and [[Draciel G]] also have Metal Balls, but they are fixed into the base. 
Each metal ball approximately weighs 1 gram.

=== Heavy Metal Core ===
----
The Heavy Metal Core, or HMC, is a special part found in the [[Takara]] version of [[Metal Driger]]. It is a completely metal core similar to MG cores found on V and V2- series blades. The core adds weight to the blade and is a desirable for many combinations. 

=== Special Weight Disks ===
----
Some [[Beyblade]]s come with unique weight disks. These weight disks are usually shaped much differently than conventional Weight Disks. They are:

* Wide Defense ([[Official Tournament Companion Accessory Pack]], Special Clear Edition [[Draciel S]])
* Wide Attack (Special Clear Edition [[Driger S]])
* Wide Survivor ([[Random Booster]]s)
* Star Attack ([[Uriel]], Random Boosters)
* Revolver Attack ([[Uriel 2]] (Takara), Random Boosters, [[Wolborg 3]] ([[Hasbro]])
* Gyro Weight Disk ([[Spinning Gyros]] series)
* MG Weight Disk ([[Voltaic Ape]] (Takara), [[Dragoon V2]] (Hasbro and Takara), and [[Magnacore Accessory Pack]] (Takara and Hasbro)) 
* 17 gram WD Piece (Random Booster Act 2)

Kai Hiwatari

2008-06-14T17:04:06Z

Beywiki: Reverted edits by Unkown (Talk); changed back to last version by Katashi

Kai Hiwatari (火渡カイ, Hiwatari Kai) is one of the main protagonists in the Beyblade anime and manga.

{{Infobox Beyblade anime 
| Name = Kai Hiwatari
| Image = [[Kai_3.jpg]]
| Age = 15
| Hair = Blue-gray
| Eyes = Varies
| Bit Beast= [[Dranzer]]
}}

==Synopsis==

In the beginning of the anime, Kai is an introverted enigma, seldom speaking for the sake of conversation. Only when he has something truely valueable to say, he will speak it. This is usually in the form of "tough love" motivation or a tip for battle. Although he is still doing so by the end of Season Three, there is a lot of noticeable change in Kai's attitiude.Kai shows more of a mature attitude, his thinking calculated and methodic.

Throughout the series, Kai is shown as the rival of [[Takao Kinomiya]], the show's lead character. He views Takao as Kai's only real challenge, seeing as he was the first to ever step up to Kai and defeat him. This rivalry still held strong throughout most of the first season, transforming into mutual respect then a strong friendship by the end of Season Three. 

Kai is voiced by [[David Reale]] in the English dub and [[Urara Takano]] in the original.

==Season One (Bakuten Shoot!)==
<center> [[Image:Kaiseasonone.gif]] </center>

We first see Kai at the end of episode one. He appears after the second battle between [[Hiruta]] (Carlos) and Takao, where Takao had proved victorious. Kai then reveals himself as the leader of the [[Blade Sharks]], the Beyblade gang to which Hiruta belongs. He punishes Hiruta for his poor performance against Takao, and challenges Takao to a battle, which Kai easily wins.

Kai does not appear much until the Regional Qualifier Tournament, where Kai is placed in Block B. He takes on Takao's companion [[Kyouju]] and easily beats him. After Kai wins his block, he battles [[Max]] who had won A Block. Despite gaining his Bit Beast [[Draciel]] at the end of the first battle, Kai still defeats Max. He then moves on to the final round to face Takao, who had just defeated [[Rei Kon]] in his semi-final match. The two fight hard, but Takao and his recently-aqquired [[Dragoon S]] come out on top. Kai is dumbfounded that Takao had defeated he, the former champion.

At the end of the tournament, [[Mr. Daitenji]] (Mr. Dickenson) announces that all those that had made it to the semi-finals- Kai, Takao, Rei, and Max- were chosen to represent Japan in the Beyblade World Championships. Despite Takao winning the tournament, Mr. Daitenji decides that Kai should be team captain.

Later, the team is sent to Hong Kong to participate in the Asian Championship. Kai leaves the team, who go searching for him, thinking he had rejected them. In truth, Kai was teaching them the strength of street bladers by leading them down an alleyway to fight. When Rei's old team, the [[White Tigers]] showed up, Kai took a back seat in the affair and throughout most of the early rounds of the Asian Championships, fighting his battles and no more. At the semi-finals, however, Kai finds himself stalling for the absent Rei and Takao by enlongating his battle until they arrived. Kai does not participate in the final round against the White Tigers.

After winning the Asian Championship, the team heads for the United States to fight in the American Championship in Las Vegas, Nevada. During their tour of the BBA research facility, they battle several of the bladers there, Kai catching on to the reason why they were being challenged to the battles: to record information on each of the bladers' skills. He also senses that [[Emily]], a member of the [[All-Starz]] has particular interest in Kai's skills. During the American Championship, Kai is seen participating in more battles than in the Asian Championship, winning every time. Despite his increased participation, Kai does not battle in the final round.

With the Asian and American Championships behind them, the team heads to Europe en route to Russia for the World Championships. When they miss their boat, the team is stuck in London for the night. They are attacked by a blader named Cairo (Cenotaph), a member of a group called [[Team WHO]]. Kai defeats his mummy Bit Beast Sarcopholon with some trouble. As the team travels Europe by land and are met by Team WHO on several occaisions, Kai tends to stay out of the fights. That is, until the final showdown with this group in Paris, where Kai defeats the entire team with his new [[Dranzer F]] blade.

After a few run-ins with a team called the [[Majestics]], Kai finally battles Johnny in team captain Ralf's castle. Suprisingly, Kai loses to Johnny. Kai, furious, challenges Johnny to another battle at the rematch a few days later. This time, Kai wins.

When they arrive at Moscow, they are taken to a Beyblade training facility owned by [[Borcloff]]. This is the same training facility where Kai once trained. After he comes to the realization of this, Kai takes a powerful Beyblade, Black Dranzer, from Borcloff and leaves his team. Kai single-handedly defeats the All-Starz, absorbing the team members' Bit Beasts. Kai also defeats every member of the White Tigers one-by-one, absorbing their Bit beasts as well. On a frozen lake, Kai challenges his former teammates, save Max. For a long time, Kai seems to have the upper hand, but Max parachutes onto the lake with his new [[Draciel F]]. Takao also uses Kai's old Dranzer, and this duo is enough to defeat Kai and Black Dranzer. After the battle, Kai falls through the ice and into the frozen river. His teammates, however, rescue him.

Now blading for his old team again, Kai takes on Sergei of team [[Neo Borg]] (Simply Team Borg at this time), losing despite his knowledge of the team. However, this loss meant nothing as Takao defeated [[Yuriy]] to win the Championship.

==Season Two (Beyblade 2002/V-Force)==
<center> [[Image:Kai.gif]] </center>

Kai, who has given up Beyblade, is now going to a private school. One his classmates, Wyatt, recognizes him as a member of Team BBA and immediatly begins questioning him about his past and makes offers to battle. Kai ignores him for some time until Wyatt steals Kai's Dranzer F from his Beyblade hideaway and uses it to challenge [[Dunga]]. Dunga defeats Wyatt easily, which causes Kai to take on Dunga with the blade Wyatt had just used. The match ends in a draw. After Dunga runs away, Kai decides to return to blading to battle this "worthy" opponent again.

Kai returns to Takao's town to find out that he wasn't the only one attacked by a mysterious blader. This group is later reavealed to be known as the [[Saint Shields]].

The now-reunited team is invited to fight a team using artificial Bit Beasts named [[Team Psykick]], the second team that has been giving Team BBA trouble. On the way to the battle, the team's van is gassed. When they wake up, they find themselves not in a Bey arena,but on an island. In order to better their chances of escaping, the team splits up, [[Hiromi]], Kyouju, and Kai heading for a lighthouse to hopefully establish connection to the outside world. on their way, they are met by a blader named Figel, who challenges Kai. Kai defeats him and the group presses on. The group is then rescued by Mr. Daitenji and [[Grandpa Kinomiya]].

Once getting off the island, Kai is challenged again by Dunga. The two fight in a battle that ends in yet another draw, yet this is enough for [[Dr. B]]'s henchmen, who were secretly watching the battle to gather information on Dranzer. It is later at a Beyblade tournament that the team comes to the realization that Team Psykick is now using synthetic copies of their Bit Beasts. Because of this, Kyouju and Hiromi set a strict training regimine for the group. During this training, the Saint Shields attack the group. During this time, Kai helps Hiromi to see Bit Beasts for the first time.

To test Cyber Dranzer, Dr. B recruits Wyatt. Wyatt was sent to do battle with Kai, but Dunga stepped in his place. Wyatt and Dunga fought, Cyber Dranzer proving to be too much for the inexperienced Wyatt. Dunga wins the battle, and Wyatt goes into shock. It is later revealed that he died (This detail is left out of the [[Nelvana]] dub). Because of this, Kai begins to feel guilty for Wyatt's death.

A few days later, Hiromi decides to have a cookout to relieve some of the boys' stress. in the middle of the cookout, however, Grandpa Kinomiya is dragged into the water by a rather large fish. With the help of another group of bladers, they save him. When the group finds out that these are the candidates chosen by Dr. B to "Get the job done," the team minus Kai goes to find out the truth, which their assumptions are confirmed.

The team is then invited to [[Gideon]]'s battle tower to do battle with the new Team Psykick.Kai sees this as his chance to get revenge for Wyatt. However, this vengence is turned against him during Kai's battle with Gouki, where Kai begins seeing images of him fighting Wyatt. Eventually, Kai overcomes the visions and defeats Gouki. After the group escapes the battle tower with the former Team Psykick, the groups make amends with one another, Kai shown grappling hands with Gouki.

After the events concerning the Bit Beast rock in New York City (See [[Max Mizuhara]] for details), Kai is not significantly involved in investigating [[Dr. Zagart]]'s involvement with the rock. That is, until he fights one of Dr. K (an associate of Dr. Zagart)'s bladers, Jack. Kai defeats Jack after he reveals his wind-controlling Bit Beast.

In a last-ditch effort to take their Bit Beasts, the Saint Shields trap the team in an amusement park. Kai is attacked by Dunga and [[Jusuf]] on an abandoned roller coaster. Rei later joins the battle to even the odds, leaving Kai to face Dunga. Both win their respective battles, leaving Takao to fight [[Ozma]], a battle which he wins.After this, the Saint Shields decide to give up their pursuit of the team's Bit Beasts, feeling they are in capable hands.

The team then prepares for the World Championship, where Kai and Rei are paired up to represent half of Team BBA, Max and Takao the other pair. Before the tournament, however, Kai is challenged by a duo known as [[King and Queen]], who wish to battle Kai for his [[Attack Ring]]. The two team up on Kai, tearing his [[Dranzer V]] apart. Due to this, the two deem Kai's blade useless and decide to not take their prize. This upsets Kai, who seeks to fight them again with his new [[Dranzer V2]]. He finds them, but before their battle ends, the duo disappears.

Kai does not participate in another important battle until the semi-finals, where he can Rei face [[Zeo]] and [[Gordo]]. After Rei's tie match with Gordo, Kai faces Zeo and his blade, [[Burning Kerberous]]. Kerberous proves to be too much for Kai, who loses not only the battle but his Bit Beast. Dranzer is later returned to him after Takao defeats Zeo in the final round.

==Season Three (Beyblade G-Revolution)==
<center> [[Image:1149667057 l.jpg]] </center>

As the season begins, we see Team BBA begin to break apart, Max joining his mother's team, The PPB All-Starz and Rei his old team, White Tigers X. The team is then dwindled down to Takao, [[Daichi]], and Kai.

At the preliminary matches to decide the tag-team pairs for the World Championship, Kai faces Daichi in the B block finals. Throughout most of the battle, Kai does little, but soon enough, he defeats Daichi in one fell stroke. This sets the pair for Team BBA as Kai and Takao, Daichi and Kyouju serving as alternates.

After watching Max and Rei fight their respective final battles to determine their teams' pairs, Kai begins to understand why the two left Takao. Kai begins to see this as his chance to finally take Takao on again, one-on-one. He then decides to quit Team BBA and join the reformed Neo Borg team, Yuriy as his teammate.

During his first round against Team BBA, Kai fights Daichi and, acting as uninterested as his preliminary battle with Daichi, loses his match. This leads to Neo Borg losing the round, Daichi defeating Yuriy in the tiebreaker. Kai then helps win the next round against the now-hated PPB All-Starz, defeating Max in the first match and Rick in the tiebreaker. Kai makes a show of his sportsmanship by silencing the booing crowd as Max stepped up to the dish for the first match of the round.

In his next round, Kai and Yuriy defeat the [[Barthez Soldiers]], Kai defeating Mihaeru after he refused to use an illgally modified Beyblade given to him by Barthez. At this point, the Barthez Soldiers made their decision to stop cheating and take their loss. The next round brings an intense battle between Rei and Kai after Li's loss to Yuriy. Although weakened, Rei came back against Kai, bringing him close to defeat as well. However, Kai comes out on top, Neo Borg advancing to the final round, receiving a bye and not having to face either Team BBA or [[F Sangre]].

In the final round, Kai and Takao face off after a match between Daichi and Yuriy with a tie as a result. Both Kai and Takao are tired to begin the fights, and both carry new blades into battle, Kai with his [[Dranzer GT]] and Takao with his [[Dragoon GT]]. Kai and Takao face each other with as much strength as they can muster, tearing both the Beystadium and the BBA arena apart. Kai and Takao's blades fall at the same time, resulting in yet another tie. Because of the state of the stadium and for the safety of the audience, Mr. Daitenji insists that the two bladers leave this match a tie. Kai and Takao, both outraged by this suggestion, begin to protest, several of the bladers in the crowd joining in. Finally, Mr. Daitenji decides to allow a tiebreaker match between Kai and Takao. The battle is as fierce as the last one, ending in a standoff between the two rivals. They both begin to fall, but Kai is the first to fall, resulting in Team BBA winning the Beyblade World Championship for the third time in a row.

Kai is not seen for some time until the announcement of the [[BEGA]] Justice 5 tournament. He decides to enter a tournament that will determine who will become a member of the BEGA team that will take on Team BBA in the tournament. He sees joining BEGA as yet another chance to fight Takao and possibly win this time. Also, he wishes to use this as an opportunity to fight [[Brooklyn]], a Beyblade prodigy being trained under Takao's brother, [[Hitoshi]]. Kai gets his chance to fight this new blader in one of the final matches of the team determination tournament. Brooklyn overwhelms Kai, breaking him mentally and physically with his Beyblade [[Zeus]] and its devastating special attack, King of Darkness.

Kai returns to the Beystadium one last time as Team BBA's fifth member, seeking revenge for losing to Brooklyn. The match begins to look as bleak as the last one, Brooklyn matching Kai move for move, calling once again upon Zeus' destructive attacks. However, Kai, bent on destroying Brooklyn for himself, Yuriy, and his team, draws enough power from Dranzer to defeat Brooklyn, his vengence taken. This comes with a cost, however, as [[Dranzer MS]] and the Dranzer itself are destroyed. After the tournament, though, we see Kai with Dranzer, showing that he and his Bit Beast companion were not completely separated.

}}

__TOC__
== Bit Protector (BP): Heavy Metal Emblem ==
The Bit Protector of this Beyblade is Heavy Metal Emblem. It is the first mould verson of Bit Protectors.

== Attack Ring (AR): Advance Balancer ==

* '''Weight:''' 15 grams
This attack ring has a gear shaped metal sub-ring. This subring has a perfect circle form- able to mantain good [[defence]]. The gear shape makes it very good for stealing spin. It is able to steal spin almost perfectly. The ABS caul has 3 wings, about the same diameter as the metal subring. The three small spikes between these wings have very little effect on the AR. Advance Balancer has quite good balance due to its form. It can be seen as an upgrade from the Metal Saucer ([[Gaia Dragoon MS]]) attack ring- although it uses the same Metal Frame, the ABS caul has been designed to prevent the Metal Frame from rattling.

Another advantage is weight. This AR is about 1g heavier than Metal Saucer ([[Gaia Dragoon MS]]). The increase in weight comes from the ABS Caul- while Metal Saucer has a hollowed ABS Caul, Advance Balancer's ABC Caul is almost completely solid. The areas underneath two of the small spikes are hollowed out, but this does not apply for the third spike.

=== Use in [[Spin Stealing]] Customization ===
The main usage of this AR is for spin stealing combos. You can change your spin direction just by loading the G-Winder through the other slot in the shooter. Here is an example:

* '''AR:''' Advance Balancer ([[Advance Averazer]])
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Wide]]
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core ([[Wolborg MS]]) or Bearing Core 2 ([[Jiraiya MS]])

Select your core depending on the situation. If you expect to see more attackers and older stadiums or Tornado Balance Type S, you should select Bearing Core 2 to prevent knock out. If you expect to see defence or survival type Beyblades and stadiums like Tornado Balance or Tornado Attack, you should select Bearing Core as it has better survival than Bearing Core 2.

=== Use in [[Survival]] Customization ===
This is another survival type customization. However, the main purpose of this combo is to counter upper attackers. The AR has quite good balance. CWD was chosen to defend against lower Beyblades. A heavier CWD would allow for a higher spin rate, as with the Metal Sharp core.

* '''AR:''' Advance Balancer ([[Advance Averazer]])
* '''WD:''' CWD 17g ([[Sea Dragon]]) Reverse Defense ([[RBA4]] Secret Prize CWD)
* '''RC:''' Metal Sharp Core ([[Advance Eterner]])

== Weight Disk (WD): Circle Balance ==

See [[Circle Balance]].

== Running Core (RC): Metal Semi-Flat Core ==

* '''Weight:''' 3 grams

This core can be very useful, but is overshadowed by the Metal Change core ([[Death Gargoyle MS]]). The main advantage of this core is that it has a controllable attacker movement. Unlike Metal Change core (Death Gargoyle MS), in which the attack movement is relatively fixed once it goes into the center of the stadium, this core can continue to hit the center again and again. As a result, while Metal Change core may waste energy by riding the tornado ridge once struck out of the center by a [[Survival]] type Bey, Metal Semi-Flat core is less likely to do so. However, Metal Semi-Flat core has much less [[Attack]] and Survival capabilities as compared to Metal Change core (Death Gargoyle MS). Metal Semi-Flat core is an upgrade on Semi-Flat core ([[Driger MS]]). Changing the material to Metal is generally an improvement as compared to plastic. However, the tip mould is different. Semi-Flat core (Driger MS) has a much narrowed diameter, as compared to Metal Semi-Flat's 2.5mm tip diameter. Metal Semi-Flat has a lot of movement. It can keep on attacking throughout the match. However, it tends to go into survival mode towards the end of the match. As an attacker core, it is relatively high, so [[Force Smash]] can be more worthwhile.

=== Use in [[Compact]]/[[Attack]] Customization ===
This custom is based on spin rate. It is able to keep on attacking the opponent continuously.

* '''AR:''' Metal Ape ([[Magical Ape MS]])
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Heavy]]
* '''RC:''' Metal Semi-Flat core ([[Avance Averazer]])

=== Use in [[Survival]]/[[Wobbler]] Customization ===
You should set the AR depending on the opponent's height for this combo.
*'''AR''': Advance Balancer
*'''WD''': Circle Balance
*'''RC''': Metal Semi-Flat core

There is a quality control error that causes some Metal Semi-Flat Core tips to spin free. This error is not a bad one. It will improve survival and allow it to retain its wobbling position even longer.

== Overall ==
Advance Averazer is the first of the Advance series and makes a lasting impression. The performance of this Beyblade is higher than expected. It is also the best Beyblade to demonstrate the strength difference between plastic and HMS. This is one of the better [[Balance]] type Beyblades, with good [[attack]] and [[survival]] at once. With high speed movement and spin-stealing abilities, it is a good buy.

Master Dragoon

__TOC__
== Attack Ring (AR): Upper Dragoon ==

* '''Weight:''' 7 grams

Upper Dragoon is the best AR for right spin [[upper attack]] (if you want left spin upper attack, please see [[Dranzer GT]]'s Triangle Wing). Just from looking at it, you can see why this is. This AR has slopes that slant upwards to lift the opposing Beyblade off of the stadium floor. When this occurs, the opposing Beyblade has almost no [[defense]] ability. They can take critical damage from this, and can be knocked out of the stadium. The slopes are also very long, making it more likely to have a successful [[upper attack]].

=== Use in [[Attack]] Customization ===

For [[upper attack]] to be successful, the slope of Upper Dragoon must be able to reach below the opposing Beyblade. Because of this, using a low BB will make the attack effective against more Beyblades. The lowest BB available is [[Dragoon S]]'s Storm Grip Base. Combining these two parts, you can make an [[upper attack]]er that will repeatedly hit the opponent, reducing its [[survival]] ability and possibly knocking it out. Here is an example combo:

* '''AR:''' Upper Dragoon ([[Master Dragoon]], [[Kid Dragoon]])
* '''WD:''' [[10-Heavy]]
* '''SG:''' [[Neo-Right SG]]
* '''SG Core:''' Heavy Metal Core ([[Takara]] [[Metal Driger]])
* '''BB:''' Storm Grip Base ([[Dragoon S]])

=== Use in Specialized [[Upper Attack]] Customization ===

A popular strategy with [[upper attack]] is to create a Beyblade that sits in the center of the stadium and allows the other Beyblade to come to it. When it makes contact, it will be lifted, dealt damage and tossed away until it moves back to the center again. This strategy leaves the opponent with nowhere to go, as the opposing Beyblade cannot make contact with you without damaging itself seriously.

This Beyblade combines [[attack]], [[defense]] and [[survival]] very effectively. It is hard to knock out of the stadium due to its weight and round shape, has good [[survival]] and attacks effectively with Upper Dragoon.

* '''AR:''' Upper Dragoon ([[Master Dragoon]], [[Kid Dragoon]])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Defense]]
* '''SG:''' [[Right SG]] (Bearing Version) ([[Wolborg]])
* '''SP:''' Defense Ring ([[Voltaic Ape]])
* '''BB:''' Customize Grip Base ([[Dragoon V2]])

=== Use in [[Defense]] Customization ===

Upper Dragoon is almost perfectly round and is one of the heavier ARs. It can be used to effectively add some [[attack]] ability to your [[defense]]-type Beyblade.

* '''AR:''' Upper Dragoon ([[Master Dragoon]], [[Kid Dragoon]])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Defense]]
* '''SG:''' [[Neo-Right SG]]
* '''SG Core:''' Heavy Metal Core ([[Takara]] [[Metal Driger]])
* '''BB:''' SG Metal Ball Base ([[Draciel S]])

== Overall ==

This Beyblade contains Upper Dragoon, '''the best''' AR for right spin [[upper attack]]. It has also found a home in [[defense]] and [[survival]] combos. All players must utilize [[upper attack]] successfully in order to win consistently, simply because it is such an effective form of attack. For that reason alone, there is no reason not to recommend this Beyblade. '''Every player should buy this Beyblade.'''

Driger S

__TOC__
== Attack Ring (AR): Tiger Defenser ==
[[Image:TigerDefenser.gif|thumb|Tiger Defenser]]

* '''Weight:''' 5 grams

Tiger Defenser is one of the most popular AR selections in Beyblade. It has great [[survival]] ability due to its round shape; there are very few points of contact on Tiger Defenser that can cause heavy recoil. It has great [[defense]] ability due to its small size, leading to higher [[spin velocity]] and therefore, higher defense. It also has some [[attack]] ability due to its rounded spikes and small [[upper attack]] slopes.

=== Use in [[Survival]]/[[Zombie]] Customization ===

Using Tiger Defenser, you can create a strong [[survival]] combo. This AR does not take many heavy hits in battle. Here is an example:

* '''AR:''' Tiger Defenser ([[Driger S]])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Survivor]]
* '''SG:''' [[Left SG]] (Bearing Version) ([[Wolborg]])
* '''SG Shaft:''' Bearing Base ([[Metal Dragoon Bearing Stinger]])
* '''BB:''' Defense Grip Base 2 ([[Wolborg 2]])

The small projections on Tiger Defenser can steal spin from the opponent. The round shape will not take recoil, so the Beyblade will have higher defense. However, if you want a survival combo with better [[defense]] ability, [[Galeon]]'s War Lion is a better choice.

=== Use in [[Balance]] Customization ===

Using Tiger Defenser, you can build a good all-purpose Beyblade. This is a [[balance]] type Beyblade that performed very well under many scenarios:

* '''AR:''' Tiger Defenser ([[Driger S]])
* '''WD:''' [[10-Balance]]
* '''SG:''' [[Right SG]] (Bearing Version) ([[Wolborg]])
* '''SG Shaft:''' Bearing Base ([[Metal Dragoon Bearing Stinger]])
* '''BB:''' Defense Grip Base 2 ([[Wolborg 2]])

The purpose of this combo is not pure [[attack]], [[defense]], or [[survival]]. Rather it is a combination of all three. The problem with this type of Beyblade is that because it is not focused in a specific area, it can be defeated by a specialized combo.

=== Use in [[Compact]] Customization ===

Because of Tiger Defenser's small size and high [[spin velocity]], it is one of the most popular AR choices for [[compact]] combos. Here is an example:

* '''AR:''' Tiger Defenser ([[Driger S]])
* '''WD:''' [[10-Heavy]]
* '''SG:''' [[Neo Right SG]]
* '''SG Core:''' Heavy Metal Core ([[Takara]] [[Metal Driger]])
* '''BB:''' Metal Change Base ([[Driger S]])

As you can see, this Beyblade is not very different from an uncustomized [[Driger S]]. However, with just a few simple improvements, [[Driger S]]'s strongest attributes can be exploited even further.

=== Available in [[Hasbro]] [[Jumping Base]] ===

While [[Takara]] released [[Jumping Base]] as a stand-alone product, [[Hasbro]] released Jumping Base as a full Beyblade and gave it a recoloured Tiger Defenser AR. If you can't find [[Driger S]], you can get Jumping Base for Tiger Defenser.

* '''Weight:''' 5 grams

The BB of [[Driger S]], SG Metal Change, has an interesting function. The tip is sharpest at its direct center, but flat on most of the tip. Because of this, you can use this tip as either an [[attack]] tip or [[survival]] tip.

When shot straight, SG Metal Change will land on the sharpest part of its tip. In this form, this BB has great [[survival]], better than many bearing shaft BBs, such as [[Wolborg]]. However, if shot on a slant, the BB will land on the flattest part of its tip, causing it to move in an [[attack]] pattern. In this mode, SG Metal Change's movement is very fierce and fast moving like [[Gaia Dragoon V]]'s SG Metal Flat 2. With SG Metal Change, you can get the best of two types.

=== Changing Modes During Battle ===

When a Beyblade donning SG Metal Change is hit in battle while in [[survival]] mode, it will often tilt and shift into [[attack]] mode. This will allow the Beyblade to deliver a returning attack to the opposing Beyblade before regaining its balance and shifting back into [[survival]] mode.

=== Using [[Sliding Shot]] With SG Metal Change ===

[[Sliding shot]] causes the Beyblade to tilt when it is shot. Because of this, SG Metal Change will create a movement that sweeps through the center of the [[Beystadium]], shifting from [[attack]] to [[survival]] mode constantly.

=== Use in [[Compact]] Customization ===

SG Metal Change is round with a low diameter and a metal tip that has [[balance]]d performance. Because of this, it is the perfect choice for a compact combo. ''Note: This is the same compact combo that was listed for Tiger Defenser.''

* '''AR:''' Tiger Defenser ([[Driger S]])
* '''WD:''' [[10-Heavy]]
* '''SG:''' [[Neo Right SG]]
* '''SG Core:''' Heavy Metal Core ([[Takara]] [[Metal Driger]])
* '''BB:''' Metal Change Base ([[Driger S]])

As you can see, this Beyblade is not very different from an uncustomized [[Driger S]]. However, with just a few simple improvements, [[Driger S]]'s strongest attributes can be exploited even further.

=== Rule Clarification: Tip Exchange ===

It is '''illegal''' to exchange the tip of SG Metal Change with any other tip.

== Other Versions ==

* [[Driger S]] - [[Phantom Force]] Version
* [[Driger S]] - [[BBA Championship]] Version
* [[Jumping Base]] (Tiger Defenser AR Only)

== Overall ==

This Beyblade is a rare case of an older model being useful all over. Both Tiger Defenser and SG Metal Change are indispensable parts with many uses. The [[Phantom Force]] re-release was a godsend for people who missed this Beyblade the first time around. You can practice every shooting technique with this Beyblade, and many Beyblades can be defeated by [[Driger S]] with little or no customization.

Driger MS

2008-06-14T17:02:53Z

Beywiki: Reverted edits by Unkown (Talk); changed back to last version by Beywiki

{{Beybox

| item number = A-124
| beyblade system = [[HMS]]

| starter or booster = Starter
}}

Driger MS was the first HMS beyblade to be released by Takara in Japan and ushered in the HMS era.

== Attack Ring (AR): Metal Upper ==

* '''Weight:''' 20 grams 

Metal Upper features two slight ramps when in right spin direction that are designed to give the attack ring upper attack so that it may lift other beyblades. In left spin the "heads" of the tiger on the attack ring provide some decent smash attack due to its thick metal spikes. Overall the attack ring is rather rounded and is thus well suited for compact customizations. It was originally very useful when HMS first made it's debut, but has since been surpassed by later HMS beyblade parts.

=== Mould Differences ===

When Driger MS was first produced in China it shipped with a different Attack Ring from that of current models. This "China Mould" AR featured more flat edges on the upper-lifting ramps and a less enforced metal frame that held the AR together. 

When production was moved to Japan, the mould for Metal Upper was changed, adding somewhat rounded edges on the upper ramps and a thicker underlying frame to prevent the AR from breaking.

== Weight Disk (WD): Circle Balance ==

* '''Weight:''' 15 grams 

Circle Balance is a weight disk that is well suited for all purposes, thus the name. For more information, please see [[Circle Balance]].

== Running Core (RC): Semi-Flat Core ==

* '''Weight:''' 2 grams 

Semi-Flat core is more or less the HMS rendition of SG Semi-Flat; in other words, a nice Running Core. It's tip is sharp, yet flattened on the very end. This gives it a mild movement pattern when launched straight into a beystadium best suited for endurance or defense purposes. However, when launched on a slant it begins to move in a circular, more aggresive attack-type pattern.

== Overall ==

Driger MS was a strong start for the HMS series of beyblades. It offered a nice attack ring in Metal Upper and the HMS version of the popular bladebase SG Semi-Flat. However, it has since been usurped by later parts, such as [[Death Gargoyle MS]]'s Circle Upper as well as DEMS's Metal Change Core.

Burning Kerberous

}}

__TOC__
== Name Changes ==

Hasbro released this beyblade under two different names:
*Cerberous
*Howling Spirit

== Attack Ring (AR): Triple Attacker ==
* '''Weight:''' 7 grams

The AR of Burning Kerberous is very unique in that each of its wings perform a different type of attack. The thickest wing performs [[Spike Attack]], the next wing (clockwise) performs [[upper attack]], and the wing counter-clockwise from the Spike Attack wing performs [[Force Smash Attack]]. This AR can be used to differentiate between the different types of attack, but for competition purposes the AR isn't considered in serious gameplay.

== Weight Disk (WD): 10-Wide ==
See [[10-Wide]]

== Spin Gear (SG): Neo SG Right (Double Bearing Core) ==
This is the prized part of Burning Kerberous. The Double Bearing Core contains two bearings (hence its name) and provides very good endurance. The tip is similar to the tip of Metal Change Base ([[Driger S]]); when the beyblade is shot at the center, the tip has very high endurance, and when the beyblade is shot at an angle, the tip moves around in an attack pattern. The beyblade also switches between attack and endurance during a battle. The bearing case can only hold one other shaft, [[Wolborg 2]]'s shaft.

Sample combination:
*'''AR:''' [[Bearing Gyros]] AR
*'''WD:''' [[Wide Survivor]]
*'''SG:''' Neo Left SG (Double Bearing Core)
*'''SP:''' Survivor Ring ([[Dark Series]]
*'''BB:''' Customize Grip ([[Dragoon V2]])

This combination provides great endurance. The AR, WD, and SP work in unison to spin steal effectively, while the Double Bearing Base provides the endurance.

== Support Part (SP): Cross Attack ==

* '''Weight:''' 2 grams
This SP is used for smash attack, but it is not very efficient, due to the shape of the projections. Other SP parts outclass it, like Fin Tector ([[Draciel V2]])

== Blade Base (BB): Customize Bearing Base ==

* '''Weight:''' 4 grams (10 grams with Double Bearing Core)
This Blade Base can only house the Double Bearing Core. Only the shaft of Burning Kerberous and the shaft of Wolborg 2 can fit into the Double Bearing Core. Therefore, there are only two ways the BB can be used. The blade base can be used with the Burning Kerberous shaft inside the bearing cases, which has great endurance, or it can be used with the Wolborg 2 shaft, which stays fixed when placed in the BB. The Wolborg 2 shaft, when fixed in place, is used for [[attack]] combinations.

== Overall ==
This beyblade has many uses in [[Zombie]]/[[Spin Stealing]] combinations. The Double Bearing SG is an upgrade from the single bearing SGs, giving the zombie/spin stealing combinations more endurance. It is disappointing that only the Wolborg 2 shaft and Burning Kerberous shafts can fit into the bearing cases.

__TOC__
== Attack Ring (AR): Upper Claw ==

* '''Weight:''' 7 grams

The AR of [[Driger V2]] wan built for [[upper attack]] by having two upper attack ramp points. One problem with this AR is that the tiger heads on Upper Claw reduces the chances of the upper attack since they get in the way of the lift, but upper attack is still possible. With an attack surface that dips to the level of the weight disc, it it is able to perform an upper attack by lifting the opposing blade. However, the rather shallow lifting curve severely limits the lifting potential of this AR, and was generally outclassed by other upper attackers. However, the amount of upper attack on this AR can be improved by combination with its SP Upper Attack. It would be unwise to use this AR without the Upper Attack SPs. 

''* '''Note''' The [[Hasbro]] Driger V2 has reinforced plastic making it more durable than the [[Takara]] version.'' 

== Weight Disk (WD): 10-Balance ==
See [[10-Balance]]

== Spin Gear (SG): Neo SG Right ([[MW Core]]) ==
See [[Neo SG Right]]

== Support Part(SP): Upper Attack ==

* '''Weight:''' 4 grams

Upper Attack is the heaviest SP. Like with its AR Upper Claw, it is built for [[upper attack]] because of its ramp like shape. The problem with Upper Claw was that it was built for upper attack, but it wasn't steep enough on its own to have an efficient upper attack. It was solved when it was used with the Upper Attack SP which is twice as long as the AR's slopes. When used together, the SP would extend the Beylade's overall slopes or ramps by 200% allowing for an efficient upper attack. 

The Upper Attack can also be inversed like the other SPs, but it requires either a 6-Heavy or a 6-Balance to use it.

===Use in [[Upper Attack]] Combinations===
Unlike with Upper Claw on the other hand, the Upper Attack SP can be efficient on its own not relying on another part. Since Upper Claw is a support part, it has the advantage over [[upper attack]] ARs in terms of having a lower starting ramp point. Because of this, the SP can serve as the main point of attack instead of having the AR do that. Here is an example of how the Upper Attack SPs can be used on its own without the AR being the main attack part.

* '''AR:''' Trycutter ([[Polta]])
* '''WD:''' [[10-Heavy]]
* '''SG:''' SG Right
* '''SG Core:''' [[Dranzer S]] Casings (w/ Shaft from Full Auto Clutch) ([[Driger F]])*
* '''SP:''' Upper Attack ([[Driger V2]])
* '''BB:''' [[Customize Grip]] ([[Dragoon V2]])

In order to focus on attacking with the support part only, smaller parts aside from the SP and BB must be used thus the reasoning for the use of a small AR such as Try Cutter ([[Polta]]). A [[10-Heavy]] is used because it is fairly compact with a reasonable amount of weight to control the SG. The SG uses the shaft from [[Driger F]] because it is fast.

''* '''Note''' refer to [[Dragoon V2#Adding_a_Different_SG|Adding a Different SG]] if you do not know how to setup the SG.''

== Blade Base (BB): Customize Change ==

* '''Weight:''' 7 grams

The Customize Change BB is the updated version of Metal Change Base ([[Driger S]]). It still has the same metal change tip that allows it switch modes depending on the angle the tip is at. The main difference is that it is taller, weighs 2 grams more, and has the ability to have an SP with it which determines its uses. Though it might seem ideal for [[compact]] customization since more significant weight can be added on, it is not since the BB is taller which causes it to lose balance more and that most of the smaller, compact SPs are not shaped roundly to be [[compact]] for this kind of customization. Despite having more features, it doesn't outshine Metal Change Base ([[Driger S]]).

Another main problem with this BB is the general height of it when used with the Upper Attack SPs. Even though it is taller than Metal Change Base ([[Driger S]]), the Upper Attack SP often touches the stadium or tornado ridges when in attack mode causing it to lose spin.

== Overall ==
Driger V2 uncustomized is a very balanced Beyblade. It can go on the offense, the defense, or even try to out last the opposing Beyblade all depending on how it is launched. Although the Upper Claw AR is considered inferior to Triple Claw ([[Driger G]]), it still has its uses with its Upper Attack SP. This is a very unique Beyblade, but it's worth buying on a moderate level.

== Spin Gear (SG): Left SG ==

== Blade Base (BB): Storm Grip ==

* '''Weight:''' 4 grams

Storm Grip is one of the most popular bases for Upper Attack types. Storm Grip comes with a flat rubber tip. This makes combos with Storm Grip very fast and aggressive. One reason why this is one of the best bases for Upper Attack is its height. Storm Grip is the lowest base ever created. In order for Upper Attack to work your beyblade must be lower than your opponent's. Storm Grip is also the lightest blade base ever created.

=== Use in [[Attack]] Customization ===

* '''AR:''' Upper Dragoon ([[Master Dragoon]], [[Kids Dragoon]])
* '''WD:''' [[10-Heavy]]
* '''SG:''' [[Neo Right SG]]
* '''SG Core:''' Heavy Metal Core ([[Takara]] [[Metal Driger]])
* '''BB:''' Storm Grip ([[Dragoon S]])

The amazing Upper Attack ability of Upper Dragoon combined with Storm Grip's height and speed makes one of the most effective Upper Attack combinations made.

== Other Versions ==

* [[Dragoon S]] - [[Phantom Force]] Version
* [[Dragoon S]] - [[BBA Championship]] Version
* [[Dragoon S]] - Limited Edition Blue Dragon Version
'''***It should also be noted that the original Dragoon was released again with green colored stickers around the release of the later F series, Seaborg 2, Wolborg 2 and so on.'''

Storm Grip Base is an extremely useful part; however the tip wears down very quickly. All serious players should own many copies of Dragoon S.

Bit Protector

2008-06-14T16:59:42Z

Beywiki: Reverted edits by Unkown (Talk); changed back to last version by Kei

__TOC__

==Overview==
The [[Heavy Metal System]] introduced many new concepts compared to the first generation of Beyblades, one of them being the Bit Protector. As explained in the HMS article, the Bit Protector (BP) plays a much larger role in the assembly of a Beyblade than the Bit Chip did on [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic Beyblades]]. It is the “screw” that holds together the Beyblade, and what the [[Heavy Metal System#The Dual Shooter and G-Winder | dual shooter]] latches onto when preparing to launch.

For more information on the components and assembly of HMS Beyblades, please see the [[Heavy Metal System | HMS article ]].

==Bit Protector Molds==
Throughout the life of [[Heavy Metal System | HMS]], BPs were generally the same, however, as time went on [[Takara]] released newer Beyblades, with new Bit Protector molds. Takara produced three different molds during HMS’s production, they are as follows:

*'''1st:''' 
[[Gaia Dragoon MS]] 
[[Dragoon MS]] 
[[Dranzer MS]] 
[[Driger MS]] 
[[Draciel MS]] 
[[Einstein MS]] 
[[Wyvern DJ]] 
[[Dragoon MS UV]] 
[[Death Gargoyle MS]] 
[[Wolborg MS]] 

*'''2nd:''' 
[[Advance Averazer]] 
[[Advance Guardian]] 
[[Advance Striker]] 
[[Advance Eterner]] 
[[Phantom Fox MS]] 
[[Dark Leopard MS]] 
[[Magical Ape MS]] 
[[Round Shell MS]] 
[[Samurai Changer MS]] 
[[Thunder Dragon]] 
[[Sea Dragon]] 
[[Dragoon MF]] 
[[Dranzer MF]] 

*'''3rd:''' 
[[Jiraiya MS]] 
[[Aero Knight MS]] 
[[Bloody Devil MS]] 
[[Shining God MS]] 
[[Slash Riger MS]]

''Note: While Takara produced all three different molds, [[Hasbro]] only made one.''

=== Differences Between Molds ===
The first mold, produced in most of the original HMS releases, is loose; this results in an unstable Beyblade with lowered spin velocity. The second mold, is tighter than the first and was the most produced of the three molds. The third mold, only produced in four Beyblades is the most stable and tightest, with very little room between the BP and AR.

===Mold Uses===
Generally, using the tightest BP is the best choice. It makes the parts fit more snugly, not allowing them to rattle during battle. The first mold can be used for [[Wobbler | wobbler]] combinations, as the looseness contributes to the wobbling, but what it loses from this (stability and spin velocity) are far most costly in a battle situation.

==Running Protector==
The Running Protector is a [[Special Parts | special part]] that was only released in [[Round Shell MS]] for it's gimmick, running mode. For more information on the Running Protector, please see the Round Shell MS article.
==Overall==
Having all three different Bit Protector molds is essential for any serious Beyblade player; the difference they give may seem miniscule, but thats what it comes down to in serious matches.

Wolborg MS

__TOC__
== Bit Protector (BP): Wolborg Emblem ==
The Bit Protector of this Beyblade is Wolborg Emblem. It is the first mould version of Bit Protectors.

== Attack Ring (AR): Wolf Crusher ==

* '''Weight:''' 20 grams

Wolf Crusher is best used in conjunction with an uncustomized [[Wolborg MS]]. At first glance, it is deceptively aggressive looking. However, in actual performance it is very reserved. It has a circular, balanced form that lends itself well to [[Survival]]. It will not interfere with the [[life after death]] capability of the [[Circle Wide]]. However, this AR does not have many practical applications outside of being combined with [[Wolborg MS]]'s Bearing Core.

== Weight Disk (WD): Circle Wide ==

See [[Circle Wide]].

== Running Core (RC): Bearing Core ==

* '''Weight:''' 5 grams

Bearing Core was one of the most highly anticipated parts at the time of its release, and it did not disappoint. Bearing Core remains to be unarguably one of the most important parts for every Blader to own. It has the best [[Survival]] capability of any part ever.

Bearing Core has a thick, sharp plastic tip attached to a metal shaft that runs into the Running Core. Between the shaft and outer casing of the Running Core is an NSK [[ball bearing]], such as the ones present in previous Survival hallmark Beyblades. However, the Bearing Core completely outclasses every Survival part preceding it.

=== Use in [[Survival]] Customization ===

[[Wolborg MS]] works incredibly well as a [[Survival]] type on its own. However, it can be improved by many different types of customizations. You should try your own to see which ones work best for you. Here are just a few examples.

* '''AR:''' Advance Survivor ([[Advance Eterner]])
* '''WD:''' CWD God Ring ([[Shining God MS]])
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core ([[Wolborg MS]])

* '''AR:''' Wolf Crusher ([[Wolborg MS]])
* '''WD:''' CWD Reverse Defenser ([[Dranzer MF]])
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core ([[Wolborg MS]])

* '''AR:''' Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]])
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Wide]]
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core ([[Wolborg MS]])

=== Controversy Over Bearing Core ===

Bearing Core was a large source of controversy within the Beyblade community simply because of how powerful it is. In most stadiums, particularly [[Tornado Balance]], its ability to outlast almost any other Beyblade was game-breaking in its effectiveness. There are very niche methods available to beat it, but this did not change the fact that it still outclassed almost every other part in the game. There were even discussions of banning the part.

However, Takara addressed this issue by releasing [[Tornado Balance Type S]]. By releasing a smaller stadium, Bearing Core lost its advantage as it was easily knocked out of the stadium.

=== How to Defeat Bearing Core-Based Beyblades ===

In [[Tornado Balance Type S]], defeating Beyblades based on Bearing Core is easy because the stadium is small enough to allow for easy hits and knockouts. However, in most other stadiums defeating Bearing Core-based Beyblades is a chore because it is difficult to hit consistently. However, there are ways to do it. The following strategies are designed for best use in the [[Tornado Attack]] and [[Tornado Balance]] stadiums.

==== Halting + [[Force Smash]] Combo ====

It must be noted that this combo is only effective if both it and the Bearing Core Beyblade are spinning in the same direction. However, that is the only variable that affects this Beyblade's performance in a significant way.

* '''AR:''' Metal Ape ([[Magical Ape MS]])
* '''RC:''' Rubber Weight Core ([[Round Shell MS]])

This combo works because the rubber on the Rubber Weight Core saps the opposing Beyblade's energy effectively and also uses [[Force Smash]] to push it into the stadium floor. Metal Ape is the best choice of AR for this combo because the high spin velocity lends itself well to the concept, not to mention that the shape lines up perfectly with Rubber Weight Core. Tests have shown this combo to have an almost perfect victory rate.

==== [[Attack]] Combo ====

If you are a Blader who is skilled at shooting and knows how to control fast [[Attack]]-types, then this type of combo can serve you well. The goal is to hit the Bearing Core Beyblade as quickly as possible in order to KO it or hit it hard enough to stop it from spinning. Because Bearing Core Beyblades tend to sit in the center of the stadium, it is important that the Attack combo be shot in such a way that it moves through the center of the stadium repeatedly.

* '''AR:''' Samurai Upper ([[Samurai Changer MS]])
* '''WD:''' CWD Defense Ring ([[Sea Dragon]])
* '''RC:''' Grip Flat Core Ultimate Mode ([[Dragoon MS UV]])

If you find it too difficult to control with the above RC, you can also try replacing it with [[Dragoon MS]]'s Grip Flat Core.

==== [[Survival]] Combo (Bearing Core Variant) ====

You can also your own Bearing Core Beyblade in order to beat your opponent's. For best results, yours should be spinning in the direction opposite to your opponent's and be optimized for [[Spin-Stealing]]. The tip of your Bearing Core should be in near-mint condition or better, and there should be no bend in the shaft.

* '''AR:''' Advance Survivor ([[Advance Eterner]])
* '''WD:''' CWD Reverse Defenser ([[Dranzer MF]]) or CWD Free Survivor ([[Thunder Dragon]])
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core ([[Wolborg MS]])

== Overall ==
There is little to say about Wolborg MS that has not been repeated ad-nauseum within the Beyblade community. Simply put, if you want victory and can only purchase one Beyblade, this is the one to have. Out of the box and uncustomized it is a force to be reckoned with, and customized its potential only increases. Only very skilled Bladers are able to defeat it with consistency. Game-breakingly good, this should be at the very top of your purchase list. '''All Bladers should own multiples of this Beyblade.'''

Death Gargoyle MS

{{Beybox

}}

__TOC__
== Name Changes ==
Death Gargoyle MS was released by Hasbro as Dark Effigy MS.

== Bit Protector (BP): Gargoyle Emblem ==
The Bit Protector of this Beyblade is Gargoyle Emblem. It is the first mould version of Bit Protectors.

== Attack Ring (AR): Circle Upper ==

* '''Weight:''' 20 grams

Circle Upper is one of the most useful ARs available. This usefulness is due to the unique shape of its [[Metal Frame]]; it is an almost perfect circle shape that completely surrounds the outside of the AR, with two large, deep slopes on either side that are used for [[Upper Attack]]. Although it has some [[Smash Attack]] ability and [[Force Smash]] in left spin, these traits are negligible when compared to the effectiveness of its Upper Attack.

Because of the round shape of Circle Upper, many hits will not be incredibly effective against it. There are very few points of contact for another AR to latch onto during a hit, generally causing the Beyblade attacking Circle Upper to take the majority of the damage.

Circle Upper is the second widest [[HMS]] AR available (The widest being [[Samurai Changer MS]]'s Samurai Upper) Because of this, it has one of the widest attack range of all HMS ARs. While not as much of an advantage in [[Tornado Balance Type S]], in wider stadiums where making early contact is crucial, the extra range can mean the difference between winning or losing.

A point of note is the weight distribution on Circle Upper; because there is no metal near the center, only along the outside rim, all of the weight is focused there. This will generally lead to an AR with poor balance, and placing it on a tall RC will cause wobbling. However, there are two ways to negate this disadvantage:

* The most popular combos with Circle Upper generally use very low RCs, e.g. [[Dragoon MS]]'s Grip Flat Core, so the poor balance is generally not an issue.

* There are combos you can build where this poor balance can be used as an advantage, which is discussed on this page.

In contrast to the Metal Frame, the [[ABS Caul]] mostly serves to be a cradle for the Bit Protector. Most of the contact with the opposing Beyblade will be with the Metal Frame, another one of Circle Upper's great advantages.

Circle Upper has very few disadvantages and many advantages, and this is why it is one of the most-used ARs of all time.

=== Mould Differences ===
There was a change made to the mould of Circle Upper's [[Metal Frame]]. The change was first employed at the release of [[HMS Random Booster ACT 3]]. The [[Death Gargoyle MS]] in this booster has a Metal Frame that is reinforced along the entire [[Upper Attack]] slope. The result is that it is significantly thicker and weighs more. This does alter the balance so that it is even more prone to [[wobbling]]. The previous mould is lighter and has better [[Survival]] capability. These moulds are referred to as "first mould" and "second mould", respectively. You can select one or the other depending on your strategy.

=== Use in [[Upper Attack]] Customization ===
[[Death Gargoyle MS]]'s Circle Upper and [[Samurai Changer MS]]'s Samurai Upper dominated as the top choice ARs for Attack-types. This style of combo can be used effectively to defeat [[Survival]] types such as [[Wolborg MS]] in many stadiums.

* '''AR:''' Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]])
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Wide]]
* '''RC:''' Grip Flat Core Ultimate Mode ([[Dragoon MS UV]])

=== Use in [[Wobbling]] Customization ===

While wobbling is a strategy that is often difficult to implement effectively, this is one of the few ARs that makes it a viable strategy. You can combine it with a [[Survival]]-type core to beat other Survival-types. The [[Smash Attack]] gained from Wobbling, along with Circle Upper's innate [[Upper Attack]] and the Survival capabilities of its round shape make this a good strategy to attempt.

* '''AR:''' Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]])<nowiki>*</nowiki>
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Wide]]
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core ([[Wolborg MS]])

<nowiki>*</nowiki>''Select the first mould Circle Upper for more Survival ability, or the second mould for more [[Attack]] ability.''

=== Shared [[Metal Frame]] ===

The second mould of Circle Upper's Metal Frame is the same Metal Frame used in [[Samurai Changer MS]].

== Weight Disk (WD): Circle Heavy ==

See [[Circle Heavy]].

== Running Core (RC): Metal Change Core ==

* '''Weight:''' 3 grams

Metal Change Core has its roots early in the life of Beyblade, with the first incarnation being [[Driger S]]'s SG Metal Change Base. Since then, the tip was also used in [[Driger V2]] and [[Gigars]], but the Metal Change Core has the best implementation of it to date.

The design of the Metal Change Core is that there is a small metal tip on the end. At the very center of the tip it comes to a point, and all of the area of the tip surrounding the point is broad and flat. If the Beyblade is level to the angle of the stadium, it stands on the sharp tip and is stationary ([[Survival]] mode). If the Beyblade is on an angle to the stadium, it will stand on the broad portion of the tip and move quickly around the stadium ([[Attack]] mode). Metal Change Core's Attack mode is about the same speed as [[Advance Striker]]'s Metal Flat Core.

Another great advantage of Metal Change Core is its size. Its low height compliments the function of Circle Upper very well by allowing it to get under the opposing Beyblade and perform [[Upper Attack]].

=== Using Metal Change Core With [[Sliding Shoot]] ===

When you shoot Metal Change Core using [[Sliding Shoot]], the Beyblade will move in a flower pattern through the center of the stadium, switching between [[Attack]] and [[Survival]]. This works very well for beating Beyblades that spend most of their time at the center of the stadium.

=== Use in [[Compact]] Customization ===

Metal Change Core is a short, small part with both the sharpest tip available and the ability to move very quickly for [[Attack]]-mode. This makes it the perfect candidate for a Compact combo.

*'''AR:''' Metal Ape ([[Magical Ape MS]])
*'''WD:''' CWD Defense Ring ([[Sea Dragon]])
*'''RC:''' Metal Change Core ([[Death Gargoyle MS]])

=== Use in [[Upper Attack]] Customization ===

Upper Attack combos work very well with high [[spin velocity]] parts. The same attributes that make this part a perfect candidate for [[Compact]] customization also apply to Upper Attack. Although [[Death Gargoyle MS]] uncustomized can work fine for this, you can also try this combo for something with more [[Survival]] and spin velocity.

*'''AR:''' Advance Attacker ([[Advance Striker]])
*'''WD:''' CWD Defense Ring ([[Sea Dragon]])
*'''RC:''' Metal Change Core ([[Death Gargoyle MS]])

== Overall ==
[[Death Gargoyle MS]] has been a long-standing favourite of Bladers simply due to its versatility. No part is wasted, and it can be used with great results either uncustomized or by using its parts with others. Death Gargoyle MS is Beyblade in many forms; you can use many playing styles simply with this Beyblade. It is also a great Beyblade to practice your shooting with. However, as great as all of it is, Circle Upper is simply one of the most powerful ARs ever made, and it is worth owning just for it. '''Every Blader should own multiples of this Beyblade.'''

Shooters and Grips

Beywiki: Reverted edits by Unkown (Talk); changed back to last version by Composer of Requiems

[[Shooters and Grips]], along with [[Winder | winders]] are used to launch all Beyblades.
__TOC__

=Plastic=
===Standard Shooters===
[[Image:Bey_008.jpg|thumb|EZShooter (right spin).]]
[[Image:Bey_010.jpg|thumb|EZShooter (right spin) with Beyblade attached.]]
*'''EZShooter (right spin):'''
This is the standard right spin shooter/launcher. The winder/rip cord is inserted in the back end, and to attach the Beyblade, you put both prongs of the launcher in the openings beside the Bit Chip.
[[Image:EZshooterLEFT.jpg|thumb|EZShooter (left spin)]]
*'''EZShooter (left spin):'''
Same as EZShooter right spin, except it has a different design and is for left spin. Two versions exist, the original that came with earlier Dragoons, and the "Neo Left" version. The original version had an additional layer of gears to change the direction of rotation, so that the winder could be inserted in the same orientation as the EZShooter right spin. The Neo Left connects the winder to the prongs more directly, so the winder was inserted upside-down, hence changing the direction of rotation.
*'''EZShooter (spring):'''
Has a spring between the prongs that presses against the Beyblade bitchip. It pushes down when launching, forcing Beyblade downwards. This reduces the risk of mislaunch.

===Grips===
[[Image:Customgrip.jpg|thumb|Customize Grip with Sniper Compass and Roller Support]]
The purpose of all grips is to increase players launching stability and accuracy. All experienced players should use a grip when playing.

*'''Customize Grip:'''
Both types of EZShooters can be placed into these. You can customize this grip with various other parts, such as metal grip, rubber grip, spring support, and the metal trigger. Hasbro released this grip as the “Dragoon Grip” and “Dranzer Grip”.

*'''Marksmen Grip:'''
Both types of EZShooters can be placed into these. The special feature of this grip is the sniper scope. When in the vertical position, this scope emits a red light that is supposed to be used to project where your Beyblade will land when launched.

*'''Catapult Grip:'''
The EZShooter is attached to a catapult mechanism equipped with a spring. Pulling the winder pulled back the EZShooter as well as setting the Beyblade spinning; when the winder has been released at the end of launch, the catapult mechanism springs forward to shoot the Beyblade forward.

*'''Spring Shooter:'''
Has a spring support just behind the slot for the winder. Theoretically this gave you a faster launch, but the more practical purpose helped to give a straighter pull and prevent unnecessary wear and tear on winder and gears.

*'''Dranzer/Driger/Dragoon Shooter:'''
EZShooters are not required to use these shooters. All three of these electronic shooters are designed to represent the bit beast they are named after. When turned on, you are able to play various mini-games related to Beyblade by using the winder and Bit Chips. Next to the RC shooter, this series is the second largest grip available.

*'''RC Shooter:'''
EZShooters are not required to use this shooter. This shooter was included with [[Remote Control Beyblades]]. When turned on, the trigger was pushed forward or backward to control the RC Beyblade. The RC shooter is the largest grip available in the game, in both plastic and HMS.

*'''Duotron Launcher:'''
With this, you are able to launcher two Beyblades at once, using one winder. This launcher is very inconsistent; launching one Beyblade at a time right after each other is more efficient.

===Standard Shooters===
[[Image:Bey_013.jpg|thumb|Dual Shooter]]
[[Image:Bey_014.jpg|thumb|Dual Shooter with Beyblade attached.]]
[[Image:Doubleshooter.jpg|thumb|Double Shooter]]
[[Image:Stringshooter.jpg|thumb|String Shooter, shown open and closed]]
*'''Dual Shooter''':
Unlike the [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]], the Dual Shooter, as suggested by the name has the ability of selecting spin direction by simply flipping the G Winder and placing it in it’s appropriate hole. This capability opened up many possibilities for the whole [[HMS]] series as there is no need to change any parts which you were once forced to do with plastic Beyblades. Attaching HMS Beyblades to the Dual Shooter is similar to the plastic generation, just line up the two clips with the end of the [[Bit Protector]] and two smaller ones will clamp onto the BP. It is common for Dual Shooters to not be very reliable, some even useless, so finding a working Dual Shooter is vital.

*'''Double Shooter:'''
This shooter has two sets of prongs to launch two Beyblades at once, and attachments for the prongs so that it can launch plastic as well as HMS. Unfortunately, it can only launch in right spin; also, it has very weak launch power.

*'''String Shooter:'''
Instead of a winder, this shooter had to be manually opened up so that a string could be wound around an axis. The advantage of this shooter is that it prevented the opponents from seeing what spin direction you would be using; however, launching with this shooter has a very different feel as compared to regular shooters. Also, it is very troublesome to wind.

===HMS Grips===
[[Image:Bey_012.jpg|thumb|HMS Customize Grip.]]
[[Image:HMSgrips.jpg|thumb|HMS Customize Grip, Double Shooter and Running Shooter. Note how the handles can be interchanged.]]
*'''HMS Customize Grip:'''
This grip is basically an updated version of the Customize Grip from the [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]], except it can be used by both left handed and right handed players. To do this, you remove the compartment the Dual Shooter is placed into and slide the grip onto the other side. As with the Customize Grip, the HMS Customize Grip can be customized by adding the spring trigger or rubber grip.

*'''Running Shooter:'''
This shooter was included with [[Round Shell MS]] for use in its running mode. For more information on the Running Shooter, please see Round Shell MS’s article.

__TOC__
== Bit Protector (BP): Turtle Emblem ==

The Bit Protector of this Beyblade is Turtle Emblem. It is the second mould of Bit Protectors.

== Attack Ring (AR): Turtle Crusher ==

* '''Weight:''' 21 grams

Turtle Crusher is a heavy AR with its weight focused entirely on two adjacent sides. Its [[Metal Frame]] has two large, blunt projections at each end. On the underside, hidden by the [[ABS Caul]] are two small metal nubs. The entire Metal Frame is bluntly designed for [[Smash Attack]].

Because the weight of Turtle Crusher is focused on adjacent ends, it has very poor balance. However, this poor balance works perfectly with the design of the Metal Frame for [[Wobbling]]. You can build a Wobbling combo with very high Smash Attack capability using Turtle Crusher.

Unfortunately, Turtle Crusher lost a lot of its use when [[Aero Knight MS]] was released. Its AR, Knight Crusher, has the same Metal Frame as Turtle Crusher, but the ABS Caul has better Smash Attack.

=== Use in [[Wobbling]] Customization ===

* '''AR:''' Turtle Crusher ([[Round Shell MS]])
* '''WD:''' CWD Circle Attacker ([[Phantom Fox MS]])
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core ([[Wolborg MS]])

=== Shared [[Metal Frame]] ===

Turtle Crusher's Metal Frame is the same as [[Aero Knight MS]]'s Knight Crusher.

== Running Core (RC): Grip Weight Core ==

* '''Weight:''' 20 grams

Rubber Weight Core is unique in that it takes the position of both the WD and RC. It is essentially a weighted cylinder with a layer of rubber on the outside and a semi-flat plastic tip. This is the only Beyblade designed with rubber that is designed to make contact with the opponent, which makes Rubber Weight Core a completely unique part that cannot be substituted.

The function is the rubber is to act as a defensive mechanism by absorbing the shock from contact with the opposing Beyblade. In practice, this function works fairly well; most clashes will result in a soft sound and Rubber Weight Core losing little ground. However, there are issues with using Rubber Weight Core as a primary [[Defense]] RC.

* Most HMS [[Attack]]-types work using [[Upper Attack]], not [[Smash Attack]]. Rubber Weight Core does not protect against Upper Attack as well as a [[free-spinning]] [[CWD]] does.

* Rubber Weight Core's tip is plastic, and does not have very much friction with the stadium. While this increases [[Survival]] ability, this tip is very easy to knock around the stadium.

Another great function of Rubber Weight Core is its [[Force Smash]] ability. The lower rim of the rubber shell is on a diagonal angle that gradually forces the opposing Beyblade downward into the stadium floor. This strategy is very common in a specific [[Bearing Core|Wolborg MS]]-killing combo that is listed in this article.

For this RC to function properly, it has to be spinning in the same spin direction as the opposing Beyblade. If it is opposite, this RC will perform very poorly. It will not be able to deflect hits properly and can be outspun by even aggressive Attack-type Beyblades.

For pure Defense-types, [[Jiraiya MS]]'s Bearing Core 2 is a better choice. However, this does not mean this RC has no use.

=== Use in [[Force Smash]] Customization ===

This combo in the same spin direction has a high rate of victory against combos based on [[Wolborg MS]]'s Bearing Core. The high [[spin velocity]] combined with the Force Smash and halting capabilities of the rubber means it is able to outspin Bearing Core.

* '''AR:''' Metal Ape ([[Magical Ape MS]])
* '''RC:''' Rubber Weight Core ([[Round Shell MS]])

== Running Shooter ==

Included in this package is a grip called the Running Shooter. However, for it to function, you must already have an [[HMS Customize Grip]]. The part that is detachable from the handle of the HMS Customize Grip is attached to the Running Shooter.

It is a very small grip that is molded to fit fingers. For shooting techniques that require the shooter to move quickly, it is often a better choice than HMS Customize Grip. However, if you need to hold the shooter still, HMS Customize Grip is still a better choice.

== Running Mode ==

Round Shell MS’s gimmick is known as running mode; using the running shooter included in the package, it is possible to launch Round Shell MS vertically, making it roll like a tire.

To do this, you must remove the AR, [[Bit Protector]], and fasten the Running Protector in its place. With the Running Protector attached, you can turn Rubber Weight Core on its side put it into the special attachment on the running shooter. Running mode has absolutely no uses in any battle situations, and is not tournament legal.

== Overall ==

Turtle Crusher does have some use, but [[Aero Knight MS]]'s Knight Crusher or the second mould of [[Death Gargoyle MS]]'s Circle Upper both work just as well or better. However, Rubber Weight Core does have some particularly good niche uses, and the Running Shooter is very valuable for [[Attack]]-type Beyblades. This set is a good addition to any Blader's collection.

Draciel Metal Ball Defenser

2008-06-14T15:53:57Z

Beywiki: Reverted edits by Unkown (Talk); changed back to last version by Kei

{{Beybox
| image = MBD.jpg
| full item name = Draciel Metal Ball Defenser
| item number = 32
| beyblade system = [[4-Layer]]
| beyblade type = [[Defense]]
| starter or booster =
}}

__TOC__
== Attack Ring (AR): Max Shield ==

* '''Weight:''' 5 grams

The AR of [[Draciel Metal Ball Defenser]] has four almost straight edged panels around it. Because of this, it it not ideal for [[defense]] due to the amount of friction given off from the straight edged panels when spinning.

== Weight Disk (WD): Heavy ==

See [[Heavy (WD)]].

== Blade Base (BB): Metal Ball Base ==

* '''Weight of BB Only:''' 9 grams
* '''Weight of BB with 1 set of [[metal balls]] (Original Weight):''' 11 grams
* '''Weight of BB with 2 sets of [[metal balls]]:''' 13 grams

Metal Ball Base is the most valuable part in this Beyblade. It has the screw-in base from the 4-layer system which gives the impression of it being out of date, but it is still a good [[defense]] type base in due to the additional weight that can be added to it. MBD comes with one set of [[metal balls]] that go inside of the BB.

When spinning rapidly, the [[metal balls]] in MBD's base roll up the ramps inside to a position closer to the outside of the blade. This gives a higher center of gravity and increased stability, due to a more uniform distribution of overall weight. As the blade slows down, the force of gravity overcomes the centrifugal force and the [[metal balls]] roll back down the ramps towards the center of the blade. This hampers balance and stability, but increases spin time. The concept is to essentially remain motionless (in the lateral plane) for the first half of the battle, and then outlast the opponent's blade near the end. However, the design is somewhat flawed, in that the ramps aren't very steep at all, so nearly any rotational motion causes the metal balls to slide up the ramps.

=== Adding Metal Balls ===

As stated before, [[Draciel Metal Ball Defenser]] comes with one set of [[metal balls]] which is commonly known as the Draciel gimmick. It is possible to add one additional set of [[metal balls]] increasing the BB weight by almost 20% more. By loosening the screw in the BB, it'll slightly loosen the opening to where the [[metal balls]] go in. When it is loose enough for the [[metal balls]] to go in, inset them in and then re-tighten the screw back.

In addition to increasing the weight of the BB, it also changes how the [[Special Parts#Metal_Balls|metal balls]] function. Instead of constantly changing between a higher spin rate to a central weight focus with only one set of [[metal balls]], it combines the two features together providing a more solid [[defense]] type base which prevents KOs.

=== Use in a [[Defense]] Customization ===

Being a Draciel Beyblade capable of holding up to two more [[metal balls]], it has the weight the advantage in a defense type combination. He is an example of a defense type combination:

* '''AR:''' War Lion ([[Galeon]])
* '''Secondary AR:''' War Lion ([[Galeon]])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Survivor]]
* '''BB:''' Metal Ball Base (w/ 4 [[metal balls]]) ([[Draciel Metal Ball Defenser]])

The thing that makes this combination durable is how all of the parts work together in [[synergy]]. War Lion (both AR and Secondary AR) nearly aligns perfectly with the Wide Survivor WD to form a circle. Aside from that, the Secondary AR spins freely reducing the amount of force given on contact when hit. The problem with this combination is that the AR, Secondary AR, and WD together generally doesn't have good balance on its own, but the Metal Ball Base makes up for it by balancing it out by its weight and the amount of spin rate it has on its own.

=== Use in a [[Compact]] Customization ===

Compared to the updated SG Metal Ball Base ([[Draciel S]]), Metal Ball Base has one advantage over it: size. Because it is smaller in shape with an above average amount of weight, it is one of the ideal bases used for [[compact]] combinations. Here is an example:

* '''AR:''' Tiger Defenser ([[Driger S]])
* '''WD:''' [[Ten Heavy]]
* '''BB:''' Metal Ball Base (w/ 4 [[metal balls]]) ([[Draciel Metal Ball Defenser]])

== Overall ==

[[Draciel Metal Ball Defenser]] was a long overlooked Beyblade until the [[compact]] combo was realized in the international community. After this discovery, the Metal Ball Base became a popular choice not only for [[compact]] combos, but [[defense]] combos as well. For [[defense]], there may be better BBs (such as [[Draciel S]]'s SG Metal Ball Base), but the original Metal Ball Base still finds use due to its smaller size.

== Bit Protector (BP): Dragoon Emblem ==

The Bit Protector of this Beyblade is Dragoon Emblem. it is the second mould of Bit Protectors.

Attack Ring (AR): Upper Dragon

* '''Weight:''' 19 grams

The Upper Dragon attack ring metal frame is an exact replica of Upper Fox(Phantom Fox MS).The diameter however doesn't cover as much area as Phantom Fox's ABS Caul.Also note that in left spin,this AR performs smash attack,due to the spikes on the metal frame,where as Phantom Fox performs the same but with the plastic part.

Weight Disk (WD): CWD Chain Attacker

* '''Weight:''' 17 grams

The CWD Chain Attacker isn't so bad,as this has wide range and is free spinning,but since range will have an effect on balance,this beyblade should have a WD that isn,t very wide.

Running core (RC) Metal Weight Grip Core

* '''Weight:''' 3 grams

This RC is much like Grip Flat Core and Grip Flat Core(Ultimate Version),but tip is made from diffent type of rubber from the other two.This change gives Metal Weight Grip Core more control.

This beyblade can be found in RBA3,there is a 1/6 chance of getting it, the best feature is the Metal Weight Grip Core.

Winder

2008-06-14T15:51:46Z

Beywiki: BeyWiki dumb moved to Winder over redirect: vandalism

A winder is the cord placed into the [[Shooters and Grips | shooter]], and must be pulled for a Beyblade to launch. There is many different colour and length variations that were produced over the years.
__TOC__
==Plastic==
===Winder===
This is the standard winder that usually is packaged with all [[Shooters and Grips | EZShooters (right spin)]]. It is fairly short and has a ring shape on the end where you can place your index finger.

===Dragon Winder===
The Dragon Winder is included with all of the earlier generation Dragoons. It is longer than the standard winder, which will increase the [[spin velocity]] of a Beyblade. Its handle is in the shape of a dragon, which allows players to grip two fingers onto it. Originally, the teeth of this winder were facing the left, but was eventually changed to face the right for the Neo Left EZShooters. Every player should own multiple copies of this winder; there is no downside to using it over the original winder.
[[Image: Bey_015.jpg|thumb|Neo-Dragon Winder]]
===Neo-Dragon Winder===
The Neo-Dragon Winder was released by [[Takara]] with all of the later released Dragoons and [[Remote Control Beyblades | RC Beyblades]]. It is very similar in use compared to the Dragon Winder, with one notable difference; the handle. The handle of Neo-Dragon Winders is in the shape of a dragon like the Dragon Winder, except it is on a vertical angle. Many players consider this winder the best there is, but both the Dragon and the Neo-Dragon Winders are efficient. Every player should own multiple copies of this winder, or the Dragon Winder.

==HMS==
===G-Winder===
The G-Winder is the only winder that was produced for the [[HMS]] series. Its design is obviously derived from the Dragon Winder and unlike the [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]] winders, all G-Winders are of the same length. The plastic on G-Winders is much more thick and reliable than the old winders, and is easier to straighten.

==Straightening Winders==
To keep your [[Shooters and Grips | shooters]] from getting worn down quickly, it is important that you straighten your winders. Simply bending the plastic with your hands will not get the job done. Here is the step-by-step process for straightening all winders:

*Fill up a sink with hot water (make sure you are able to put your hand in it)
*Drop the winder you wish to straighten into the water and leave it for 60 seconds or so.
*After 60 seconds, take out the winder.
*Run the winder under cold water, and using your hands, bend the winder a bit in the opposite direction it was originally pointed towards and then force it into a straight line while running it beneath the cold water.
*Once you are satisfied, dry off the winder.

Your winder should be a lot straighter now.

Turtle Crusher does have some use, but [[Aero Knight MS]]'s Knight Crusher or the second mould of [[Death Gargoyle MS]]'s Circle Upper both work just as well or better. However, Rubber Weight Core does have some particularly good niche uses, and the Running Shooter is very valuable for [[Attack]]-type Beyblades. This set is a good addition to any Blader's collection.

__TOC__
== Bit Protector (BP): Turtle Emblem ==

The Bit Protector of this Beyblade is Turtle Emblem. It is the second mould of Bit Protectors.

== Attack Ring (AR): Turtle Crusher ==

* '''Weight:''' 21 grams

Turtle Crusher is a heavy AR with its weight focused entirely on two adjacent sides. Its [[Metal Frame]] has two large, blunt projections at each end. On the underside, hidden by the [[ABS Caul]] are two small metal nubs. The entire Metal Frame is bluntly designed for [[Smash Attack]].

Because the weight of Turtle Crusher is focused on adjacent ends, it has very poor balance. However, this poor balance works perfectly with the design of the Metal Frame for [[Wobbling]]. You can build a Wobbling combo with very high Smash Attack capability using Turtle Crusher.

Unfortunately, Turtle Crusher lost a lot of its use when [[Aero Knight MS]] was released. Its AR, Knight Crusher, has the same Metal Frame as Turtle Crusher, but the ABS Caul has better Smash Attack.

=== Use in [[Wobbling]] Customization ===

* '''AR:''' Turtle Crusher ([[Round Shell MS]])
* '''WD:''' CWD Circle Attacker ([[Phantom Fox MS]])
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core ([[Wolborg MS]])

=== Shared [[Metal Frame]] ===

Turtle Crusher's Metal Frame is the same as [[Aero Knight MS]]'s Knight Crusher.

== Running Core (RC): Grip Weight Core ==

* '''Weight:''' 20 grams

Rubber Weight Core is unique in that it takes the position of both the WD and RC. It is essentially a weighted cylinder with a layer of rubber on the outside and a semi-flat plastic tip. This is the only Beyblade designed with rubber that is designed to make contact with the opponent, which makes Rubber Weight Core a completely unique part that cannot be substituted.

The function is the rubber is to act as a defensive mechanism by absorbing the shock from contact with the opposing Beyblade. In practice, this function works fairly well; most clashes will result in a soft sound and Rubber Weight Core losing little ground. However, there are issues with using Rubber Weight Core as a primary [[Defense]] RC.

* Most HMS [[Attack]]-types work using [[Upper Attack]], not [[Smash Attack]]. Rubber Weight Core does not protect against Upper Attack as well as a [[free-spinning]] [[CWD]] does.

* Rubber Weight Core's tip is plastic, and does not have very much friction with the stadium. While this increases [[Survival]] ability, this tip is very easy to knock around the stadium.

Another great function of Rubber Weight Core is its [[Force Smash]] ability. The lower rim of the rubber shell is on a diagonal angle that gradually forces the opposing Beyblade downward into the stadium floor. This strategy is very common in a specific [[Bearing Core|Wolborg MS]]-killing combo that is listed in this article.

For this RC to function properly, it has to be spinning in the same spin direction as the opposing Beyblade. If it is opposite, this RC will perform very poorly. It will not be able to deflect hits properly and can be outspun by even aggressive Attack-type Beyblades.

For pure Defense-types, [[Jiraiya MS]]'s Bearing Core 2 is a better choice. However, this does not mean this RC has no use.

=== Use in [[Force Smash]] Customization ===

This combo in the same spin direction has a high rate of victory against combos based on [[Wolborg MS]]'s Bearing Core. The high [[spin velocity]] combined with the Force Smash and halting capabilities of the rubber means it is able to outspin Bearing Core.

* '''AR:''' Metal Ape ([[Magical Ape MS]])
* '''RC:''' Rubber Weight Core ([[Round Shell MS]])

== Running Shooter ==

Included in this package is a grip called the Running Shooter. However, for it to function, you must already have an [[HMS Customize Grip]]. The part that is detachable from the handle of the HMS Customize Grip is attached to the Running Shooter.

It is a very small grip that is molded to fit fingers. For shooting techniques that require the shooter to move quickly, it is often a better choice than HMS Customize Grip. However, if you need to hold the shooter still, HMS Customize Grip is still a better choice.

== Overall ==
G-Winder of this Starter is made of polyamide plastic. It's harder to straighten and much stiffer plastic than the older, polyethylene G-Winders.

[[Round Shell MS]]'s AR, Turtle Crusher, is okay for [[wobbler|wobbling attack]], but we have better choices such as [[RBA3]] Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]]) or Knight Crusher ([[Aero Knight MS]]). Its RC isn't bad. The [[defense]] is very good, and the [[force smash]] of the rubber part is admirable. However, now we have [[Samurai Changer MS]] for [[defense]] types, so this RC quickly lost its use.

The gimmick of this Beyblade is amusing. Using the Running Shooter, you can shoot Round Shell MS sideways, and it will race across the ground like a tire. You can race with other Round Shell MS's this way. Running Mode is not legal for battle.

The most useful part of this package is the included grip, Running Shooter.

Death Gargoyle MS

}}

__TOC__
== Name Changes ==
Death Gargoyle MS was released by Hasbro as Dark Effigy MS.

== Bit Protector (BP): Gargoyle Emblem ==
The Bit Protector of this Beyblade is Gargoyle Emblem. It is the first mould version of Bit Protectors.

== Attack Ring (AR): Circle Upper ==

* '''Weight:''' 20 grams

Circle Upper is one of the most useful ARs available. This usefulness is due to the unique shape of its [[Metal Frame]]; it is an almost perfect circle shape that completely surrounds the outside of the AR, with two large, deep slopes on either side that are used for [[Upper Attack]]. Although it has some [[Smash Attack]] ability and [[Force Smash]] in left spin, these traits are negligible when compared to the effectiveness of its Upper Attack.

Because of the round shape of Circle Upper, many hits will not be incredibly effective against it. There are very few points of contact for another AR to latch onto during a hit, generally causing the Beyblade attacking Circle Upper to take the majority of the damage.

Circle Upper is the second widest [[HMS]] AR available (The widest being [[Samurai Changer MS]]'s Samurai Upper) Because of this, it has one of the widest attack range of all HMS ARs. While not as much of an advantage in [[Tornado Balance Type S]], in wider stadiums where making early contact is crucial, the extra range can mean the difference between winning or losing.

A point of note is the weight distribution on Circle Upper; because there is no metal near the center, only along the outside rim, all of the weight is focused there. This will generally lead to an AR with poor balance, and placing it on a tall RC will cause wobbling. However, there are two ways to negate this disadvantage:

* The most popular combos with Circle Upper generally use very low RCs, e.g. [[Dragoon MS]]'s Grip Flat Core, so the poor balance is generally not an issue.

* There are combos you can build where this poor balance can be used as an advantage, which is discussed on this page.

In contrast to the Metal Frame, the [[ABS Caul]] mostly serves to be a cradle for the Bit Protector. Most of the contact with the opposing Beyblade will be with the Metal Frame, another one of Circle Upper's great advantages.

Circle Upper has very few disadvantages and many advantages, and this is why it is one of the most-used ARs of all time..

=== Mould Differences ===
There was a change made to the mould of Circle Upper's [[Metal Frame]]. The change was first employed at the release of [[HMS Random Booster ACT 3]]. The [[Death Gargoyle MS]] in this booster has a Metal Frame that is reinforced along the entire [[Upper Attack]] slope. The result is that it is significantly thicker and weighs more. This does alter the balance so that it is even more prone to [[wobbling]]. The previous mould is lighter and has better [[Survival]] capability. These moulds are referred to as "first mould" and "second mould", respectively. You can select one or the other depending on your strategy.

=== Use in [[Upper Attack]] Customization ===
[[Death Gargoyle MS]]'s Circle Upper and [[Samurai Changer MS]]'s Samurai Upper dominated as the top choice ARs for Attack-types. This style of combo can be used effectively to defeat [[Survival]] types such as [[Wolborg MS]] in many stadiums.

* '''AR:''' Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]])
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Wide]]
* '''RC:''' Grip Flat Core Ultimate Mode ([[Dragoon MS UV]])

=== Use in [[Wobbling]] Customization ===

While wobbling is a strategy that is often difficult to implement effectively, this is one of the few ARs that makes it a viable strategy. You can combine it with a [[Survival]]-type core to beat other Survival-types. The [[Smash Attack]] gained from Wobbling, along with Circle Upper's innate [[Upper Attack]] and the Survival capabilities of its round shape make this a good strategy to attempt.

* '''AR:''' Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]])<nowiki>*</nowiki>
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Wide]]
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core ([[Wolborg MS]])

<nowiki>*</nowiki>''Select the first mould Circle Upper for more Survival ability, or the second mould for more [[Attack]] ability.''

=== Shared [[Metal Frame]] ===

The second mould of Circle Upper's Metal Frame is the same Metal Frame used in [[Samurai Changer MS]].

== Weight Disk (WD): Circle Heavy ==

See [[Circle Heavy]].

== Running Core (RC): Metal Change Core ==

* '''Weight:''' 3 grams

Metal Change Core has its roots early in the life of Beyblade, with the first incarnation being [[Driger S]]'s SG Metal Change Base. Since then, the tip was also used in [[Driger V2]] and [[Gigars]], but the Metal Change Core has the best implementation of it to date.

The design of the Metal Change Core is that there is a small metal tip on the end. At the very center of the tip it comes to a point, and all of the area of the tip surrounding the point is broad and flat. If the Beyblade is level to the angle of the stadium, it stands on the sharp tip and is stationary ([[Survival]] mode). If the Beyblade is on an angle to the stadium, it will stand on the broad portion of the tip and move quickly around the stadium ([[Attack]] mode). Metal Change Core's Attack mode is about the same speed as [[Advance Striker]]'s Metal Flat Core.

Another great advantage of Metal Change Core is its size. Its low height compliments the function of Circle Upper very well by allowing it to get under the opposing Beyblade and perform [[Upper Attack]].

=== Using Metal Change Core With [[Sliding Shoot]] ===

When you shoot Metal Change Core using [[Sliding Shoot]], the Beyblade will move in a flower pattern through the center of the stadium, switching between [[Attack]] and [[Survival]]. This works very well for beating Beyblades that spend most of their time at the center of the stadium.

=== Use in [[Compact]] Customization ===

Metal Change Core is a short, small part with both the sharpest tip available and the ability to move very quickly for [[Attack]]-mode. This makes it the perfect candidate for a Compact combo.

'''AR:''' Metal Ape ([[Magical Ape MS]])
'''WD:''' CWD Defense Ring ([[Sea Dragon]])
'''RC:''' Metal Change Core ([[Death Gargoyle MS]])

=== Use in [[Upper Attack]] Customization ===

Upper Attack combos work very well with high [[spin velocity]] parts. The same attributes that make this part a perfect candidate for [[Compact]] customization also apply to Upper Attack. Although [[Death Gargoyle MS]] uncustomized can work fine for this, you can also try this combo for something with more [[Survival]] and spin velocity.

'''AR:''' Advance Attacker ([[Advance Striker]])
'''WD:''' CWD Defense Ring ([[Sea Dragon]])
'''RC:''' Metal Change Core ([[Death Gargoyle MS]])

== Overall ==
[[Death Gargoyle MS]] has been a long-standing favourite of Bladers simply due to its versatility. No part is wasted, and it can be used with great results either uncustomized or by using its parts with others. Death Gargoyle MS is Beyblade in many forms; you can use many playing styles simply with this Beyblade. It is also a great Beyblade to practice your shooting with. However, as great as all of it is, Circle Upper is simply one of the most powerful ARs ever made, and it is worth owning just for it. '''Every Blader should own multiples of this Beyblade.'''
