'''''Note:''' BB-P01 Vulcan Horuseus 145D is a limited-edition Beyblade that is included in the Sony Playstation Portable game: '''Metal Fight Beyblade Portable Chouzetsu Tensei (超絶転生)! Vulcan Horuseus'''.''

==Face: Horuseus==
*'''Weight:''' 1.11 Grams

The Face depicts Horus; the ancient Egyptian falcon-god of Lower Egypt that represents: the Sky, War, and Protection.

==Clear Wheel: Horuseus==
*'''Weight:''' 2.92 Grams

The Horuseus Clear Wheel is of an overall stylized quadrilateral design with a shade of slightly faint, semi-reflective, gold as its predominant color. Parallel to each other are two "Wedjat" eyes, both of which have a red iris when the decals are applied. Above the eyes are a reflective black and green decals, emphasizing on the eyes' brow. Decals of a similar design and shape entail the eyes. These trail to the two feathered wings between each eye that have their inner feathers painted silver.

==Metal Wheel: Vulcan==
*'''Weight:''' 32.38 Grams

The Vulcan Metal Wheel has a total of two semi-circular prominences and two smaller wings painted with two red stripes that give breath to its design. Upon closer inspection, the two prominences have slight slopes that suggest the Wheel's capability of [[Upper Attack]]. Despite the fact that these sloped areas are major contact points, they do not provide Upper Attack; however, they do provide [[Smash Attack]]. Between the two prominences are the two smaller wings, which are also major contact points.

Having a total of four major contact points suggests the Wheel possesses an incomparable amount of Smash Attack. In fact, the Vulcan Wheel can be used in the top-tier Customization as described below:

===Use in Attack Customization===
Vulcan's full potential can be attained when paired with the [[Mercury Anubis 85XF | 85]] Track, thus giving birth to ''MF Vulcan Horuseus 85R²F''. The result is a low-height [[Smash Attack | Smash Attacker]] that beautifully uses its major contact points to consistently score a knock-out.

==Track: 145==
*'''Weight:''' 1.53 Grams

145, along with its variants (C145, DF145, etc.) were once the highest Tracks available, until the 230 Track was released with [[Flame Byxis 230WD | Flame Byxis]]. It can be used in Stamina customs to great effect due to its tall height, which allows for more wobbling as the Beyblade loses its spin velocity. 145, as tall as it is, makes it easily susceptible to low Attackers; however, this should not be seen as a drawback because traditionally, Stamina Types are not designed to be used against Attack Types.

145 is also not restricted to the use of Stamina Types. As a matter of fact, 145 has found its place in a top-tier Attack Customization as described below:

===Use in Attack Customization===
145 can be put to good use in the [[Attack]] custom, ''MF Pegasis 145RF''. Pegasis has been proven to perform viciously when used in unison with 145, which maximizes the effectiveness of its [[Smash Attack]].

===Use in Stamina Customization===
145-based [[Survival | Stamina]] types are perfect for countering a 230-based Stamina type. 145 can be used to great effect for this purpose in ''Burn Bull 145SD''.

==Bottom: Defense==
*'''Weight:''' 0.68 Grams

This is a Defense Bottom, which acts as a wider version of a Sharp Bottom. When hit by an opponent, a Beyblade with this Bottom will have lessened recoil and will recover from attacks more efficiently than a Sharp Tip. However, while recovering, the Defense Bottom will cause the Beyblade to lose some stamina, caused by the added friction.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
D was once the best Stamina bottom available, but has been outclassed by SD and WD. However, it can still be used successfully in ''Virgo 90D''.

==Gallery==

==Overall==
Vulcan has proven itself as one of, if not the best and most ferocious Metal Wheel released to date for the use in Attack Customizations. For this reason, '''every Blader should own at least one of this Beyblade'''.

__TOC__

==Face: Gemios==
The Face depicts Gemini, the Twins and is the third astrological sign in the Zodiac.

==Clear Wheel: Gemios==
*'''Weight:''' 2.2 grams
Gemios follows the same aesthetic principles as the [[Gemios DF145FS | Gemios]] Metal Wheel, and Killer, with a similar two-winged design. It is the lightest Clear Wheel available.

==Metal Wheel: Killer==
*'''Weight:''' 31.2 grams
Like its Metal System predecessor [[Gemios DF145FS | Gemios]], Killer has a textured, bumpy, two-winged design that ends in two rounded edges. However, unlike its predecessor, it is considerably thinner even with a smaller amount of metal dropping below the base of the Wheel. Being so thin, the edges of each wing do not apply as much force as those of the Gemios Metal Wheel; as a result, Killer loses any of the potential [[Smash Attack]] the first incarnation had.

Being so thin negates any possible defensive qualities, and though it may seem suited for [[Survival | Stamina]], it preforms poorly compared to the top-tier [[Survival | Stamina]] Wheels such as [[Virgo DF145BS | Virgo]], [[Burn Phoenix 135MS#Metal Wheel: Burn | Burn]], and [[Earth Aquila 145WD#Metal Wheel: Earth | Earth]].

Hasbro's version of this Beyblade is called Evil as opposed to Killer.

==Track: Down Force 145==
*'''Weight:''' 3 grams
==Track: Down Force 145==
*'''Weight:''' 3 grams
DF145 has four upward facing wings protruding from the top of the Track, which aside from giving it extra weight are meant to push air downwards. It is now outclassed for use in [[Survival|Stamina]] combinations. Intead, tracks such as AD145, 145, 100, 90, and even 85 are used.

==Bottom: Flat Sharp==
*'''Weight:''' 0.6 grams
FS features a flat tip with a smaller, sharper tip in the centre. As a result, when launched at a straight angle, the Beyblade spins on this sharp tip, with very little movement. However, when tilted, either from the contact of an opposing Beyblade or from the launch, the Bottom moves in an offensive pattern. However, it suffers from the same problems as other Balance Bottoms, in that the two qualities are compromised, resulting in mediocre performance in both fields.

==Face: Virgo==
The Face depicts '''Virgo''', the sixth astrological sign of the Zodiac.

==Wheel: Virgo==
*'''Weight:''' 37 grams
Virgo is one of the most smooth, circular Wheels currently available. Its circular shape is composed of two large, and long slopes which connect with each other to form the circle; however, despite their appearance, they don't offer any effective [[Upper Attack]]. These properties lend themselves well to [[Survival | Stamina]], and despite its relatively average weight in comparison to other Wheels, Virgo has found its place among the best Stamina-based Wheels currently available.

===IMPORTANT: Mold Variations===
One very important thing to note is the different mold variations that have been discovered for Virgo. Just looking at the Wheels themselves, it is impossible to tell what the actual difference in the mold is. However, through testing, it has been determined that there is balance issues that certain Virgo Wheels encounter. Some of them have been reported not having a solo spin time above three minutes while others are able to spin for over five minutes. The disparities between the Virgo Wheels cannot be ignored, so it is encouraged to test your Virgo Wheel by itself before using it in a competitive situation.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
You can put Virgo's great [[Survival | Stamina]] abilities to use in the custom, ''Virgo DF145SD''.

==Track: Down Force 145==

===Use in Stamina Customization===
DF145 can be put to good use in the custom, ''Virgo DF145SD''.

==Bottom: Ball Sharp==
*'''Weight:''' 1 gram
BSs performance is quite similar to that of S. BS offers very little movement and as such gives no [[Attack]] potential. The pointed tip allows for very little friction between the Bottom and the stadium surface, which helps prevent the loss of [[spin velocity]]. BS has decent [[Survival | Stamina]], but because the tip is so fine, it experiences the same balance issues that S does. Both D and SD are much better choices for Stamina.

==Overall==
'''Virgo''' has found its place as the best Stamina Wheel currently available, and that fact alone should be enough to warrant a purchase, but the original version also comes with DF145, one of the most popular Tracks for Stamina. BS may have been outclassed from the day it was released, but both Virgo and DF145 more than make up for it. '''Every blader should own multiples of this Beyblade'''.

==Face: Wolf==
The face on this Beyblade depicts Lupus, one of the 88 constellations in space.

==Clear Wheel: Wolf==
*'''Weight:''' 3 grams
The original release of Wolf is a dark brown, translucent plastic wheel. The edges of the Clear Wheel consists of 4 wolf 'heads', one in each quarter of the clear wheel, representing the body form of a Wolf, the symbol its design is influenced by.

==Metal Wheel: Dark==
*'''Weight:''' 31.4 grams
Dark has twelve spikes facing the clockwise direction. These protrusions are closely packed together with minimal space between each, resulting in an overall round shape. This shape hinders the Metal Wheel in two ways: its protrusions are not pronounced enough to provide sufficient [[Smash Attack]], while the perimeter is interrupted too frequently for sufficient [[Survival | Stamina]]. Additionally, its weight is distributed over too large a surface area, resulting in poor defensive capabilities.

__TOC__

==Face: Libra==
The Face depicts '''Libra''', the seventh astrological sign of the Zodiac.

==Wheel: Libra==
'''NOTE: This Wheel is now ''banned'' under WBO Organized Play Official Rules.'''
*'''Weight:''' 40.5 grams
Libra's design is very circular, with numerous extremely small notches surrounding its perimeter. This, combined with its abnormally heavy weight in proportion to other Wheels, (of which, the heaviest is 5 grams lighter than Libra) make Libra the best [[Defense]]-oriented Wheel available, and by a wide margin.

===IMPORTANT: Mold Variations===
[[Image:8Libra.JPG|thumb|Old mold: left, New mold: right]]
Libra has three different molds. The first mold was released in BB-18 Booster Libra DF145BS and BB-22 Bey Reshuffle Set Stamina & Defense Type, and the second in BB-25 [[Random Booster Vol.2 Legend Pisces]]. The second mold addressed breaking problems that the original mold faced by reinforcing the underside of four sections of the Wheel (pictured to the left). The performance of each mold varies from Wheel to Wheel; some are slightly heavier than others, which would make them better suited for [[Defense]] customizations, while lighter ones would be more effective in [[Survival | Stamina]] customs, the difference however is negligible.The third mold is released in BB-96 Super deck set which contains a Libra,Pegasis&Burn Cancer.This new mold is now allowed by WBBA regulations as adding a Metal face will result in the weight of 47.36g.

===Use in Defense Customization===
The reason why Libra is an absolute must own is because of its unrivalled Defensive power. ''MF Libra C145WB'' is the current staple [[Defense]] customization. The heavy weight of the Metal Face, Libra, and C145 make it an almost immovable tank, and C145 provides exceptional Defense against low Attackers such as Quetzalcoatl 90RF with its three movable wings. And to top it off, WB is able to withstand powerful Attacks due to its wide surface area.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
Libra also has use in top tier [[Survival | Stamina]] customizations due to its circular form; ''Libra DF145D'' is a great choice. However, [[Virgo DF145BS | Virgo]] is a better choice being the lightest of the two Wheels.

===Use in Balance Customization===
Surprisingly, Libra has found use in a very specific [[Balance]] customization; in fact, it is really the only competitively viable Balance customization at this point in time. The custom is ''Libra CH120RF''. Here is how it performs against the current staple customs:

*'''Versus Virgo DF145D -- use 120 height'''
Even though Libra is the heaviest Wheel ever created, because its weight is focused around the outside, it is still quite agile with RF. On its own, Libra is not a very effective [[Smash Attack]] Wheel, but its weight distribution in combination with the fast moving RF allow it to achieve an astonishing 90% win rate against [[Virgo DF145BS | Virgo]] DF145D. 120 height must be used in order for the Metal Wheels to make contact or it won't work.

*'''Versus Quetzalcoatl 90RF -- use 145 height'''
By switching to 145 height, the Track will absorb all of the hits dealt by [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]]. The weight of Libra combined with the grip of RF give it enough defense to withstand most attacks, and again, the win rate is 90%.

*'''Versus MF Libra C145WB -- use 120 height'''
The win ratio against the top tier [[Defense]] combo isn't that great -- only about 60% -- but this still isn't bad, considering how strong it is against the other two types. If you can avoid using this combo against Defense-types, you should, but if you're forced into that situation you can win with a perfect shot and a little luck.

To effectively use this custom, you absolutely must be able to perform [[Sliding Shoot]] because the window for landing a successful attack is much smaller than with other Storm or Quetzalcoatl-based Attackers. A skilled Blader can use this customization as an answer to almost anything that is thrown at them.

===Controversy Over Libra===
In April 2009 [[TAKARA-TOMY]] updated the WBBA Regulations. Included in these new regulations was a 47g weight limit, which meant that no Beyblade that cumulatively weighed more than 47g would be legal for tournament play. This was done to negate Libra's game-breaking power by making it illegal to use any [[Metal Face]] + Libra customization. This also allowed other Metal Face + Defensive Wheel customizations to be viable for competitive play. So, essentially, it could be said that the Metal Face was produced to allow [[Defense]] types other than Libra-based ones to be usable.

Initially the WBO did not react to this rule change and did not impose any sort of weight limit, allowing heavy Libra customs to still be tournament legal. However, in December 2009 after countless tournaments were won, most through simply the use of a Libra-based custom such as ''MF Libra C145WB'', and seeing that the then new RF, the one part that could stand up to these customizations was difficult to control, the following poll was conducted:

----
'''Changes to WBO Competitive Gameplay: Balancing Competitive Combo's [Re: Libra]:'''
What changes do you think should be made?

*Do not change the rules. - ''56 votes (54.37%)''
*Restrict the use of the Libra Wheel + Metal Face and any 145 Track except DF145 and 145 in combos. - ''27 votes (26.21%)''
*Ban the Libra Wheel entirely. - ''20 votes (19.42%)''
----

As the results illustrate, there was much controversy over even the suggestion of restricting a Wheel. Combining the second and third options, which advocate some sort of restriction, and comparing it to the first option, it can be said that the community could almost be split evenly into sides that wanted something done, and those that didn't. However, despite the majority of votes going towards not changing anything, the proportion of votes that came from what could be considered competitive-level Beybladers was larger for the second and third options. Addtionally, those that voted for the first option did not provide compelling arguments as to why Libra should be allowed. In May 2010, Release 2 of the WBOs Standard and Universal Rules was released, with the decision that Libra was now banned from use outright in any competitive situation.

===How Libra Dominated the MFB Metagame and Why It Was Banned===
After Libra was released and weighed, it did not take very long for it to shoot to the top of the [[Metal Fight Beyblade | MFB]] metagame in both [[Survival | Stamina]] and [[Defense]] customizations, and eventually a remarkably useful [[Balance]] customization, as listed above. Aside from it's circular, uninterrupted shape, it's insane weight in comparison with other Wheels is the main reason for its game-breaking power. The fact that [[TAKARA-TOMY]] imposed the 47g weight limit essentially means they admitted that it was a mistake to release Libra in the form that they did.

If it isn't obvious already, the reason that Libra was banned was that it transformed Beyblade into a game of rock-paper-scissors. Of course, inherently the game will always be this, but Libra allowed for no deviation. You either used Libra or you didn't win. The game revolved around defeating Libra, and that isn't what a good metagame looks like. There was no skill involved. Restricting Libra would have been a nice compromise for both sides, made it more difficult to police it's use in tournaments, so banning it outright was a much easier option.

The opposition towards banning Libra was incredibly high, especially among players who owned one, but among high level, competitive Bladers, the game had become incredibly boring. In the end though, through the banning of Libra, the Beyblade metagame was undeniably opened up considerably, allowed numerous parts that may have never seen use to be utilized in top-tier customizations.

==Track: Down Force 145==
*'''Weight:''' 3 grams
DF145 has four upward facing wings protruding from the top of the Track, which aside from giving it extra weight are meant to push air downwards. It is now outclassed for use in [[Survival|Stamina]] combinations. Intead, tracks such as AD145, 145, 100, 90, and even 85 are used.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
DF145 can be put to good use in the custom, ''Virgo DF145SD''.

==Bottom: Ball Sharp==
*'''Weight:''' 1 gram
BSs performance is quite similar to that of S. BS offers very little movement and as such gives no [[Attack]] potential. The pointed tip allows for very little friction between the Bottom and the stadium surface, which helps prevent the loss of [[spin velocity]]. BS has decent [[Survival | Stamina]], but because the tip is so fine, it experiences the same balance issues that S does. Both D and SD are much better choices.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
If you don't have access to D or SD, BS can be used to some degree of effectiveness in Stamina customs such as ''Virgo DF145BS''.

==Overall==
'''Libra''' is one of the most versatile parts currently available. It's usefulness is seemingly endless, being used in three different types of the current top tier customizations. As if Libra itself was not enough, it even comes with DF145, the most useful [[Survival | Stamina]] Track. BS may not be any good, but Libra and DF145 more than make up for it.

100 is currently the third lowest Track available. Its low height allows [[Attack]]-based Wheels such as [[Storm Pegasis 105RF | Storm]] to make good contact with opposing Tracks and Wheels.

==105==
[[Image:08StormPegasis.jpg|thumb|120px|105 Track]]
*'''Weight:''' 1.0 grams
105 is the fourth shortest Track and has been released multiple times. Although 90 and 100 have been proven to be better options for most [[Attack]] types, 105 is still a decent option if the aforementioned Tracks are unavailable.

==CH120: Change 120==
[[Image:06darkcancer.jpg|thumb|120px|CH120]]
*'''Weight:''' 2.7 grams
CH120 is unique as it features a height-changing gimmick. The user is allowed a choice of using 120 or 145 as the Track's height. This is done by rotating the bottom portion of the Track and pulling/pushing the central part out/in, and then rotating the bottom portion back to lock the height. Importantly, this can be done between each round of a match, as it does not involve any part-swapping.

The advantages of this Track are plentiful. Its most obvious benefit is allowing the user to change the height of their Beyblade between rounds; this means that the user can adapt their strategy to counter the opponents during a match. CH120 is currently the only Track featuring a 120 height. This height is useful for many [[Attack]] types.

==125==
* '''Weight:''' 1.0 grams
[[Image:Bulltrack 800x600.jpg|thumb|120px|125]]
The 125 Track is a midway between the 105 and the 145 Tracks. Utilised in mid-height stamina combos, it is more difficult to destablise compared to 145 height stamina combos. It has declined in popularity as the choice mid-height track due to the release of T125 and D125.

Beyblade: [[Bull 125SF]]

==D125: Defense 125==
D125 features 1 circular shield-like circle that goes out of the track body. It is viable for use in Stamina and Attack customizations.

Beyblade:[[Ray Unicorno D125CS]], [[Rock Orso D125B]]

==T125: Tornado 125==
[[Image:07FlameLibra.JPG|thumb|120px|T125]]
*'''Weight:''' 1.7 grams
T125 has four upward-facing wing protrusions spaced apart widely. The Track is designed to work in a similar way to DF145, although the effect it produces is negligible. The performance of this Track is similar to D125. It is used in some Attack and Stamina customizations.

Beyblade: [[Flame Libra T125ES]], [[Thermal Pisces T125ES]], [[Rock Escolpio T125JB]]

==145==
[[Image:007EarthAquila.JPG|thumb|120px|145]]
*'''Weight:''' 1.5 grams
145 is used in Stamina customs to great effect due to its tall height, which allows for more wobbling as the Beyblade loses its spin velocity.

Beyblade: [[Earth Aquila 145WD]], [[Leone 145D]], [[Rock Leone 145WB]], [[Sagittario 145S]], [[Pegasus 145D]]

==C145: Claw 145==
[[Image:09FlameSagittario.JPG|thumb|120px|C145 Track]]
*'''Weight:''' 3.2 grams
C145 has three wings which extend outwards, each separately joined onto the underside of the Track. These are free moving, and hence when the Beyblade is launched, these point outwards due to spin velocity. Their free moving nature make them very effective for defensive purposes, as they are able to withstand low hits to the Track without significant spin loss. Furthermore, the Track is significantly heavier than non-gimmicked Tracks such as 145, providing extra weight essential for [[Defense]]. As such, the Track is a viable part for current Defense customizations.

Beyblade: [[Flame Sagittario C145S]]

==DF145: Down Force 145==
[[Image:Virgo5.jpg|thumb|120px|DF145]]
*'''Weight:''' 3 grams
DF145 has four upward facing wings protruding from the top of the Track, which aside from giving it extra weight are meant to push air downwards. It is now outclassed for use in [[Survival|Stamina]] combinations. Intead, tracks such as AD145, 145, 100, 90, and even 85 are used.

Beyblade: [[Dark Wolf DF145FS]], [[Killer Gemios DF145FS]], [[Virgo DF145BS]]

==ED145: Eternal Defense 145==
* '''Weight:''' 3.6 grams
[[Image:ED145.jpg|thumb|120px|ED145]]
ED145 features three “wings” which rotate around the Track freely. The wings are similar to that of WD145. Because of their free-spinning nature, they can be used in Defense customisations, such as ''MF Libra ED145WB''; however, the defensive capabilities of this part are not as effective as C145, as it does not absorb hits as successfully. The wings which rotate are hindered without the mechanism of a bearing, hence creating a force of friction between the wings and the body of the Track, in turn resulting in less significant damage absorption. Furthermore, it is easy for the low attacker’s Wheel to be caught between the Wheel and ED145, hence causing a lot of recoil and spin reduction to the [[Defense]] customization.

Beyblade: [[Clay Aries ED145B]]

==GB145: Gravity Bowl 145==
[[Image:09EarthVirgo.JPG|thumb|120px]]
*'''Weight:''' 4.5 grams
GB145 is a wide, round track featuring two free moving metal balls. These balls move toward the outside of the track while spinning, causing some additional spin retaining force. Weighing in at 4.5 grams, GB145 is currently the second heaviest track available, and as such is extremely useful in [[Defense]] customizations. Because it lacks energy-absorbing free spinning wings, it is not as effective as [[Flame Sagittario C145S | C145]] against low attackers such as [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]] 90RF. However, the increased weight increases stability, which is very useful in Defense customizations

Beyblade: [[Earth Virgo GB145BS]], [[Infinity Libra GB145S]], [[Perseus Ultimate Reshuffle Set]]

==H145: Horn 145 (First Mold)==
[[Image:10DarkBull.JPG|thumb|120px|H145 (First Mold)]]
*'''Weight:''' 4 grams
H145 has two wings with two various protrusions, representing the horns of a Bull surrounding its perimeter. These four points are meant to provide [[Smash Attack]], and they do succeed on some levels. However, because the horns are so pronounced, and because the gaps between the wings are so wide, significant recoil is produced, especially when used in combination with small Metal Wheels that allow the Horns to extend well past the perimeter of the Wheel.

While H145 may not be an entirely noteworthy part as far as competitive customizations go, it is still quite a fun part to play with. You can score many impressive KO's with the recoil it produces in the first few seconds of a battle, but at the same time, this recoil does work against you in some battles, causing a self-KO or if not, a severe loss of [[Survival | Stamina]].

Beyblade: [[Dark Bull H145SD]]

==H145: Horn 145 (Second Mold)==
[[Image:12DarkBull.JPG|thumb|120px|H145 (Second Mold)]]
*'''Weight:''' 4.3 grams
H145 has two different molds. The first version's wings were not reinforced in anyway, so they were prone to breakages in some cases. The second mold which was brought into production a couple months after it was originally released rectified this problem by reinforcing the wings with a significant amount of plastic between the inside of the wings and the outside of the Track. This increased the weight of the Track to 4.3 grams, only .2 grams lighter than the second heaviest Track, GB145. The increased weight not only reduces breakages, but it also marginally helps reduce the recoil it produces.

==WD145==
''No Content Yet. Under Construction.''

==R145: Rubber 145 ==
[[Image:R145.JPG|thumb|120px|R145]]
*'''Weight:''' 4.7 grams

R145 is the heaviest of all the tracks available. It is made of a very firm Rubber. It is both a viable Track for Attack and Defense Customizations. The R145 track can be used effectively in combinations such as : MF Gravity Perseus R145RF/R^F (counter right spin) and opposingly: MF-H Earth Bull R145RS/WB.

Bull is one of the first four Metal Fight Beyblades released, and it is part of the Horoscope Series along with [[Pegasis 105F | Pegasis]], [[Leone 145D |Leone]], and [[Sagittario 145S | Sagittario]].

==Face==
The face on this Beyblade depicts a Bull, which is represented by Taurus in the Zodiac.
==Wheel==
* '''Weight:''' 36 Grams

[[Image:BullQuetz.jpg|thumb|Bull and Quetzalcoatl both have similar designs, but the key difference between them is their Smash Attack points]]
The Bull Wheel consists of two long, sloped wings adjacent to each other, both ending in a point. Along with this, there are two half-circles in the space between the slopes, emulating the nose rings sometimes worn by bulls. Bull was originally considered to be one of the most offensive [[Metal Fight Beyblade | MFB]] Wheels, but was subsequently outclassed with the release of [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]]. The design of Bull is similar to that of Quetzalcoatl. Despite this similarity, there is one key difference: the [[Smash Attack]] points. Both are visibly different (as shown on the right); this is the major factor contributing to the vast difference in their performance. Quetzalcoatl, but more so Bull, appear to have impressive [[Upper Attack]] slopes, but in reality; as with most MFB Wheels, they do not exhibit Upper Attack in battle.

===Use in Smash Attack Customization===
Bull is severely outclassed by numerous other Wheels. Most of the little success it has had has been on mid-height Tracks: ''Bull T125RF'' is one such custom.

==Track: 125==
* '''Weight:''' 1 Gram

The 125 Track is a midway between the 105 and the 145 Tracks. Utilized in mid-height stamina combos, it is more difficult to destablize compared to 145 height stamina combos. It has declined in popularity as the choice mid-height track due to the release of T125 and D125.

* '''Weight:''' 1 Gram

SF is wider than Sharp but not as wide as any Flat Bottom. It produces a movement pattern that, while it is aggressive, is much slower than any Flat Bottom. The increased friction with the stadium floor due to the wider tip both increases its [[Defense]] and [[Survival | Stamina]] in comparison to a bottom similar to S or ES. However, it is in absolutely no competition with bottoms similar to WD for Stamina or RS for Defense. Semi-Flat is best utilized in Balance type Beyblades, as it combines aspects of [[Attack]], Defense and Stamina. Despite exhibiting aspects of all three, it excels in none and thus is essentially useless.

* '''Bull 105D''' - Random Booster Vol.1 Secret Aries (Light Blue)
* '''Bull DF145HF''' [[Random Booster Vol.2 Legend Pisces]] (Orange)
* A recoloured Bull Wheel is included with the Pegasis DX Set. It features blue paint in place of the gold.

==Overall==
The Bull Wheel, was only briefly one of the top offensive choices for Wheels after Metal Fight Beyblade was released, and has since been outclassed severely. 125 Track variants in T125 and D125 have filled in the mid-height niche with additional gimmicks. SF is mediocre since it is outclassed by rubber Bottoms in Attack, and it is easily outspun by Stamina-based combos. '''There is absolutely no competitive reason to purchase this Beyblade.'''

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

* '''Weight:''' 6 grams
Strike Turtle is constructed in an elliptical shape. It is composed of three small "claws" on each side, and a "head" just behind them. The claws are not pronounced enough to provide any strong [[Smash Attack]], and thus is outclassed by the likes of the popular Triple Wing ([[Trygle]]), Eight Spiker ([[Dragoon G]]), and even Double Wing ([[Dranzer S]]).

== Weight Disk (WD): Ten Heavy ==
See [[Heavy Weight Disks | Ten Heavy]]

== Spin Gear (SG): Neo Right SG ([[S-MG Core]]) ==
See [[Spin Gear#V and V2 Series Spin Gears | Neo Right SG]]

== Support Part (SP): Fin Tector ==

* '''Weight:''' 2 grams

Fin Tectors, like other Support Parts, can be flipped upside down for usage in different customizations. In Attack Mode, Fin Tectors greatly aid [[Smash Attack]], and are the best choice of SP for this purpose. Alternatively, Fin Tectors can also be used for defensive purposes: when placed in Defense Mode. However, in this mode they are outclassed by many other SP's; most notably Defense Ring ([[Voltaic Ape]]). Fin Tectors can be used to moderate effectiveness in Zombie customizations if installed in Defense Mode.

===Use in [[Smash Attack]] Customization===
* '''AR:''' Spiral Wing ([[Dranzer S]])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Defense]]
* '''SG:''' [[Spin_Gear#A_to_F_Series_Spin_Gears|Left SG]] SG Bearing Ver. 2 ([[Wolborg 2]])
* '''SG Shaft:''' Full Auto Clutch ([[Driger F]])*
* '''SP:''' Fin Tector ([[Draciel V2]])
* '''BB:''' Customize Grip ([[Dragoon V2]])

This is a fearsome [[Smash Attack]] combo, and can be used very effectively despite its tall height due to the nature of the Fin Tector SP. Another option for this combo would be to use SG Grip Change ([[Uriel 2]]) with a Neo Left SG with a HMC ([[Metal Driger]]), in its Rubber Flat mode. However, with this modification, the probability of breakage is increased.
*'''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): Switch Metal Ball Base ==

* '''Weight:''' 6 grams

Switch Metal Ball base features a tall round tip, which provides minimal [[Survival|Endurance]] and negligible [[Attack]] and [[Defense]]. The BB houses 2 unremovable metal balls, that can be set to either an inward or outward position. The only virtue this BB possesses is the ability to hold SP, which is overshadowed by its useless tip shape and tall height.

== Other Versions ==

==Gallery==

== Overall ==
[[Draciel V2]] is for the most part, an outclassed Beyblade. However, it is a worthwhile purchase for its SP, the best SP for [[Smash Attack]] ever manufactured. This Beyblade is recommended for those who already have considerable Plastic collections.

Bull is one of the first four Metal Fight Beyblades released, and it is part of the Horoscope Series along with [[Pegasis 105F | Pegasis]], [[Leone 145D |Leone]], and [[Sagittario 145S | Sagittario]].

==Face==
The face on this Beyblade depicts a Bull, which is represented by Taurus in the Zodiac.
==Wheel==
* '''Weight:''' 36 Grams

[[Image:BullQuetz.jpg|thumb|Bull and Quetzalcoatl both have similar designs, but the key difference between them is their Smash Attack points]]
The Bull Wheel consists of two long, sloped wings adjacent to each other, both ending in a point. Along with this, there are two half-circles in the space between the slopes, emulating the nose rings sometimes worn by bulls. Bull was originally considered to be one of the most offensive [[Metal Fight Beyblade | MFB]] Wheels, but was subsequently outclassed with the release of [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]]. The design of Bull is similar to that of Quetzalcoatl. Despite this similarity, there is one key difference: the [[Smash Attack]] points. Both are visibly different (as shown on the right); this is the major factor contributing to the vast difference in their performance. Quetzalcoatl, but more so Bull, appear to have impressive [[Upper Attack]] slopes, but in reality; as with most MFB Wheels, they do not exhibit [[Upper Attack]] in battle.

===Use in Smash Attack Customization===
Bull is severely outclassed by numerous other Wheels. Most of the little success it has had has been on mid-height Tracks: ''Bull T125RF'' is one such custom.

==Track: 125==
* '''Weight:''' 1 Gram

The 125 Track is a midway between the 105 and the 145 Tracks. Utilized in mid-height stamina combos, it is more difficult to destablize compared to 145 height stamina combos. It has declined in popularity as the choice mid-height track due to the release of T125 and D125.

==Bottom: Semi-Flat==
* '''Weight:''' 1 Gram

SF is wider than Sharp but not as wide as any Flat Bottom. It produces a movement pattern that, while it is aggressive, is much slower than any Flat Bottom. The increased friction with the stadium floor due to the wider tip both increases its [[Defense]] and [[Survival | Stamina]] in comparison to a bottom similar to S or ES. However, it is in absolutely no competition with bottoms similar to WD for Stamina or RS for Defense. Semi-Flat is best utilized in Balance type Beyblades, as it combines aspects of [[Attack]], Defense and Stamina. Despite exhibiting aspects of all three, it excels in none and thus is essentially useless.

* '''Bull DF145HF''' [[Random Booster Vol.2 Legend Pisces]] (Orange)
* A recoloured Bull Wheel is included with the Pegasis DX Set. It features blue paint in place of the gold.

Bull is one of the first four Metal Fight Beyblades released, and it is part of the Horoscope Series along with [[Pegasis 105F | Pegasis]], [[Leone 145D |Leone]], and [[Sagittario 145S | Sagittario]].

==Face==
The face on this Beyblade depicts a Bull, which is represented by Taurus in the Zodiac.
==Wheel==
* '''Weight:''' 36 Grams

[[Image:BullQuetz.jpg|thumb|Bull and Quetzalcoatl both have similar designs, but the key difference between them is their Smash Attack points]]
The Bull Wheel consists of two long, sloped wings adjacent to each other, both ending in a point. Along with this, there are two half-circles in the space between the slopes, emulating the nose rings sometimes worn by bulls. Bull was originally considered to be one of the most offensive [[Metal Fight Beyblade | MFB]] Wheels, but was subsequently outclassed with the release of [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]]. The design of Bull is similar to that of Quetzalcoatl. Despite this similarity, there is one key difference: the [[Smash Attack]] points. Both are visibly different (as shown on the right); this is the major factor contributing to the vast difference in their performance. Quetzalcoatl, but more so Bull, appear to have impressive [[Upper Attack]] slopes, but in reality; as with most MFB Wheels, they do not exhibit [[Upper Attack]] in battle.

===Use in Smash Attack Customization===
Bull is severely outclassed by numerous other Wheels. Most of the little success it has had has been on mid-height Tracks: ''Bull T125RF'' is one such custom.

==Track: 125==
* '''Weight:''' 1 Gram

The 125 Track is a midway between the 105 and the 145 Tracks. Utilized in mid-height stamina combos, it is more difficult to destablize compared to 145 height stamina combos. It has declined in popularity as the choice mid-height track due to the release of T125 and D125.

==Bottom: Semi-Flat==
* '''Weight:''' 1 Gram

SF is wider than Sharp, yet not as wide as any Flat Bottom, and thus produces a movement pattern that, while it is aggressive, is much slower than any Flat Bottom. The increased friction with the stadium floor due to the wider tip both increases its [[Defense]] and [[Survival | Stamina]] in comparison to a bottom similar to S or ES. However, it is in absolutely no competition with the likes of WD for Stamina or RS for Defense. Semi-Flat is best utilized in Balance type Beyblades, as it combines aspects of [[Attack]], Defense and Stamina. However, while exhibiting aspects of all three, it excels in none and thus is essentially useless.

The Bull Wheel, was only briefly one of the top offensive choices for Wheels after Metal Fight Beyblade was released, and has since been outclassed severely. 125 Track variants in T125 and D125 have filled in the mid-height niche with additional gimmicks. SF is mediocre since it is outclassed by rubber Bottoms in Attack, and it is easily outspun by Stamina-based combos. '''There is absolutely no competitive reason to purchase this Beyblade.'''

__TOC__

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

* '''Weight:''' 6 grams
Strike Turtle is constructed in an elliptical shape, with three small "claws" on each side, and a head just behind them. However, the claws are not pronounced enough to give it any strong [[Smash Attack]], and thus is outclassed by the likes of the popular Triple Wing ([[Trygle]]), 8-Spiker ([[Dragoon G]]), and even Double Wing ([[Dranzer S]]).

== Weight Disk (WD): Ten Heavy ==
See [[Heavy Weight Disks | Ten Heavy]]

== Spin Gear (SG): Neo Right SG ([[S-MG Core]]) ==
See [[Spin Gear#V and V2 Series Spin Gears | Neo Right SG]]

== Support Part (SP): Fin Tector ==

* '''Weight:''' 2 grams

Fin Tectors, like other Support Parts, can be flipped upside down for usage in different customizations. In Attack Mode, Fin Tectors greatly aid [[Smash Attack]], and are the best choice of SP for this purpose. Fin Tectors can also be used for defensive purposes, when placed in Defense Mode, but in this mode they are outclassed by many other SP's, most notably Defense Ring ([[Voltaic Ape]]). Fin Tectors can be used to moderate effectiveness in Zombie customizations if installed in Defense Mode.

===Use in [[Smash Attack]] Customization===
* '''AR:''' Spiral Wing ([[Dranzer S]])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Defense]]
* '''SG:''' [[Spin_Gear#A_to_F_Series_Spin_Gears|Left SG]] SG Bearing Ver. 2 ([[Wolborg 2]])
* '''SG Shaft:''' Full Auto Clutch ([[Driger F]])*
* '''SP:''' Fin Tector ([[Draciel V2]])
* '''BB:''' Customize Grip ([[Dragoon V2]])

This is a fearsome [[Smash Attack]] combo, and can be used very effectively despite its tall height thanks to the power of the Fin Tector SP. Another option for this combo would be to use SG Grip Change ([[Uriel 2]]) with a Neo Left SG with a HMC ([[Metal Driger]]), in its Rubber Flat mode. However, with this modification, there comes a high chance of breakage.

''* '''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): Switch Metal Ball Base ==

* '''Weight:''' 6 grams

Switch Metal Ball base has a tall round tip, that provides little endurance, no attack, and no defense. The BB holds 2 unremoveable metal balls, that can be set to either an inward or outward position. The only virtue this BB possesses is the ability to hold SP, which is overshadowed by it's useless tip shape, tall height, and overall impracticality.

== Other Versions ==

==Gallery==

== Overall ==
[[Draciel V2]] is for the most part, an outclassed Beyblade. However, it is a worthwhile purchase for its SP, the best SP for [[Smash Attack]] ever made. This Beyblade is recommended for those who already have considerable Plastic collections.

Bull's Wheel was originally considered to be one of the most offensive MFB Wheels, yet it has been outclassed with the releases of Quetzalcoatl, Lightning and Ray. Due to the wings on the Metal Wheel (similar to that of Quetzalcoatl), it is best utilised in the combo Bull T125RF as a Smash Attacker.

==Track: 125==

* '''Weight:''' 1 Gram

The 125 Track is a midway between the 105 and the 145 Tracks. Utilised in mid-height stamina combos, it is more difficult to destablise compared to 145 height stamina combos. It has declined in popularity as the choice mid-height track due to the release of T125 and D125.

==Bottom: Semi-Flat==

* '''Weight:''' 1 Gram

* '''Height:''' 8.87 Millimeters

* '''Tip Width:''' 4.11 Millimeters

* '''Flat Section Width:''' 2.33 Millimeters

This tip is Semi-Flat. It provides a semi-aggressive movement pattern. SF exhibits increased Defense over the Sharp and Defense Bottoms due to the increased friction. The downside is that [[Survival|Stamina]] is decreased and causes the Beyblade to move around more, exposing it to an Attack type. The trade-off in stamina for stability makes it inferior to SD and WD in terms of [[Survival|Stamina]]. Semi-Flat tip is usually used in Balance type Beyblades as it combines aspects of Attack, Defense and Stamina.

Bull has vastly declined in popularity as an attack wheel with the release of Quetzalcoatl, [[Metal Wheel: Storm|Storm]] and [[Lightning]]. 125 Track variants in T125 and D125 have filled in the mid-heigt niche with additional gimmicks. SF is mediocre since it is outclassed by rubber Bottoms in Attack, and it is easily outspun by Stamina-based combos. Few aspects warrant this Beyblade a buy for a competitive Blader.

==Attack Ring (AR): Upper Force Ring==
'''Weight:''' 4 grams

This AR has three triangle shaped wings that could be used for [[Smash Attack]] in left spin. However, due to first generation limitations, this AR may only be used in right spin. In this spin direction, the large and flat projections create incredible amounts of recoil while providing minimal [[Attack]]: essentially nullifying any potential use it may have had. Useless and fragile, this is often considered one of the worst ARs ever created.

==Blade Base (BB): Flat==

'''Weight:''' 7 grams

The predecessor to SG Flat, this BB was designed for attacking purposes. Useless even at the time of its release, this part is outclassed and serves no use. It should not even be considered for usage.

==Overall==

This Beyblade is composed of completely useless and outclassed parts: a continual source of jokes within the Beyblade community. There is absolutely no reason to purchase one, outside of collection purposes.

==Attack Ring (AR): Dual Dragon==
*'''Weight''': 6 grams

Dual Dragon can be considered an upgrade of Reverse Dragon ([[Dragoon S]]' AR). Like Dragoon S, it has four left-facing projections to provide [[Smash Attack]]. The red part of the AR is made of a substance called Dual Carbonate. This increases the AR's durability; being able to absorb shock from hits more efficiently than regular plastic. However, this AR is outclassed by many other ARs and thus has no competitive use.

Fantom Grip Base has a flat rubber tip. Fantom Grip is slightly taller than its predecessor, Storm Grip Base ([[Dragoon S]]) and due to increased height and its poorer [[Survival | Stamina]], Fantom Grip Base a less suitable choice for [[Upper Attack]] customs compared to Storm Grip Base. Overall, Fantom Grip Base is a less useful BB than Storm Grip Base. In spite of this, it can still be used with mild effectiveness in [[Smash Attack]] and [[Upper Attack]] customs.

[[Dragoon F]] was a disappointing upgrade to the previously released Dragoon S. All of its parts, such as its AR (Dual Dragon) are heavily outclassed. However, if access to the superior: Storm Grip Base is not available, Dragoon F's Fantom Grip Base is a passable alternative.

__TOC__
== Bit Protector (BP): ==
This is the second generation bit protector released; it is tighter that the initial bit protectors allowing for a better fit.

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

* '''Weight:''' 21 grams
The attack ring of this beyblade is Advance Attacker, its gimmick is a reversible Metal Frame. The Metal Frame separates from the ABS Caul so it can be flipped to provide [[Upper Attack]] ability or [[Force Smash]] attack ability. It is also characterized by being symmetrical, so the attack in left spin and right spin are equivalent. This versatility allows Advance Striker to be the best option for [[Upper Attack]] in left spin. In right spin however it is outclassed Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]]) and Samurai Upper ([[Samurai Changer MS]]). Even though they both possess a 20 degree slope, the length of Advance Attacker's is only 1.5 cm compared to the 2.5 cm of Samurai Upper and Circle Upper. This difference of 1 cm. makes a noticeable difference to the amount of lift capable. The Force Smash feature is very useful if paired with an effective RC since 20 degree slopes make it one of the most pronounced force smash attack rings available. Uncustomized, its potential remains untapped since Metal Flat Core's height is to low to utilize it.

The ABS Caul is a fairly conservative shape, it is nearly a full circle with three small triangular protrusions, and most of the contact is made by the metal frame. Other than some wear on the protrusions, the rest of the ABS Caul will receive minimal damage. Its circular shape also allows for better balance.

Another feature of this AR is its size/weight ratio; weighing in at 21 grams Advance Attacker is the second heaviest attack ring in the category for compact Attack Rings. This weight combined by its small shape allows it to be a good choice for compact customizations. The only AR to weigh more and be as small is Jiraiya Blade ([[Jiraiya MS]]); but the difficulty obtaining that blade leaves Advance Attacker as a more viable option for most bladers. Other AR’s like Metal Ape’s ([[Magical Ape MS]]) are more compact, but weigh less.

=== Use in [[Upper Attack]] Customization ===
Advance Attacker can be used effectively in Upper Attack customs in both left and right spin.

* '''AR:''' Advance Attacker ([[Advance Striker]]) (Upper Mode)
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Heavy]] /CWD Defense Ring ([[Sea Dragon]])
* '''RC:''' Grip Flat Core ([[Dragoon MS]]) Or Grip Flat Core Ultimate Mode ([[Dragoon MS UV]])

=== Use in [[Force Smash]] Customization ===
With a taller RC, the Force Smash mode of Advance Attacker is perfect for Force Smash customs.

* '''AR:''' Advance Attacker ([[Advance Striker]]) (Force Smash Mode)
* '''WD:'''[[Circle Balance]]
* '''RC:''' Tornado Change Core ([[Dark Leopard MS]])/Metal Sharp Core ([[Wyvern DJ]]) ([[Advance Eterner]])/Manual Change Core ([[Dranzer MS]])

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

* '''Weight:''' 16 grams

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

* '''Weight:''' 3 grams

Metal Flat core was intended to be an upgrade to [[Gaia Dragoon MS]]' Flat core; and has generally proven to be so. It has superior movement speed, survival and durability than its predecessor. The metal tip allows for extremely high speeds matching that of Metal Change Core ([[Death Gargoyle MS]]) and falling behind only to Grip Flat Core [[Dragoon MS]]) and Grip Flat Core Ultimate Mode [[Dragoon MS UV]]). Because it is metal, it will not be worn down through use in battle in comparison to plastic and rubber tipped Running Cores.

This RC also has the benefit for being extremely short. It is the third shortest RC, bested only by Grip Flat Core and Grip Flat Core Ultimate Mode. This height makes is a good option for employing upper attack combos and compact attackers. By using the Sliding Shoot technique this can be an effective attack RC; without Sliding shoot, it is very uncontrolled and wild. Metal Flat Core is difficult to control in a stadium without a [[Tornado Ridge]].

=== Use in [[Upper Attack]] Customization ===
The high movement speed of Metal Flat Core makes it a great choice for attack customs when [[Dragoon MS UV]]'s RC is not a viable option.

* '''AR:''' Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]]) /Samurai Upper ([[Samurai Changer MS]])
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Heavy]] /CWD Defense Ring ([[Sea Dragon]])
* '''RC:''' Metal Flat Core ([[Advance Striker]])

=== Use in ([[Smash Attack]]) Customization ===
Because the tip of Metal Flat Core is metal, its survival capability is much higher than that of Grip Flat Core and other similar RC's. This, along with the compact nature of Metal Spring and Circle Heavy make this high spin-rate Smash Attack custom something that can be used to counter the generic Grip Flat Core (Ultimate Mode) customs that are commonly seen in tournaments.

* '''AR:''' Metal Spring ([[Einstein MS]]) / Metal Ape ([[Magical Ape MS]]) / Jiraiya Blade ([[Jiraiya MS]])
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Heavy]]
* '''RC:''' Metal Flat Core ([[Advance Striker]])

== Overall ==
'''Advance Striker''' as a whole is a very well designed and constructed beyblade. Its attack ring does has effective upper attack in right spin, but it is outclassed by the two most popular choices in the format (Circle Upper, Samurai Upper). This disparity prevents it from being used in most competitive play as an Upper Attack AR unless playing within Restricted HMS tournament Rules. Its real strength lies in its [[Force Smash]] ability and left spin upper attack; two attack styles which are far less populated. Force smash AR's are infrequent; contrary to Circle Upper and Samurai Upper, which are only effective [[Upper Attack|upper attackers]] in right spin.

The RC Metal Flat core is a very useful part to own. The low height, high speed and excellent durability make it a very good option for all attack combos. Its features lend itself well to Smash Attack customizations in a field overpopulated with [[Upper Attack]] Combos. Overall this is a good buy for HMS, and serious players and [[Attack]] beyblade enthusiasts should have one in their collection.

== Overall ==
'''Advance Striker''' as a whole is a very well designed and constructed beyblade. Its attack ring does has effective upper attack in right spin, but it is outclassed by the two popular game breakers in the format (Circle Upper, Samurai Upper). This disparity prevents it from being used in most competitive play as an Upper Attack AR unless playing within Restricted HMS tournament Rules. Its real strength lies in its force smash ability and left spin upper attack; two attack attack style far less populated. Force smash AR's are few and far between, and the game breakers are only effective upper attackers in right spin.

The RC Metal Flat core is a very useful part to own. The low height, high speed and excellent durability make it a very good option for all attack combos. Its features lend itself well to Smash Attack customizations in a field overpopulated with Upper Attack Combos. Overall this is a good buy for HMS, and serious players+attack beyblade fans should have one in their collection.

__TOC__
== Bit Protector (BP): ==
This is the second generation bit protector released; it is tighter that the initial bit protectors allowing for a better fit.

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

* '''Weight:''' 21 grams
The attack ring of this beyblade is Advance Attacker, its gimmick is a reversible Metal Frame. The Metal Frame separates from the ABS Caul so it can be flipped to provide [[Upper Attack]] ability or [[Force Smash]] attack ability. It is also characterized by being symmetrical, so the attack in left spin and right spin are equivalent. This versatility allows Advance Striker to be the best option for [[Upper Attack]] in left spin. In right spin however it is outclassed Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]]) and Samurai Upper ([[Samurai Changer MS]]). Even though they both possess a 20 degree slope, the length of Advance Attacker's is only 1.5 cm compared to the 2.5 cm of Samurai Upper and Circle Upper. This difference of 1 cm. makes a noticeable difference to the amount of lift capable. The Force Smash feature is very useful if paired with an effective RC since 20 degree slopes make it one of the most pronounced force smash attack rings available. Uncustomized, its potential remains untapped since Metal Flat Core's height is to low to utilize it.

The ABS Caul is a fairly conservative shape, it is nearly a full circle with three small triangular protrusions, and most of the contact is made by the metal frame. Other than some wear on the protrusions, the rest of the ABS Caul will receive minimal damage. Its circular shape also allows for better balance.

Another feature of this AR is its size/weight ratio; weighing in at 21 grams Advance Attacker is the second heaviest attack ring in the category for compact Attack Rings. This weight combined by its small shape allows it to be a good choice for compact customizations. The only AR to weigh more and be as small is Jiraiya Blade ([[Jiraiya MS]]); but the difficulty obtaining that blade leaves Advance Attacker as a more viable option for most bladers. Other AR’s like Metal Ape’s ([[Magical Ape MS]]) are more compact, but weigh less.

=== Use in [[Upper Attack]] Customization ===
Advance Attacker can be used effectively in Upper Attack customs in both left and right spin.

* '''AR:''' Advance Attacker ([[Advance Striker]]) (Upper Mode)
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Heavy]] /CWD Defense Ring ([[Sea Dragon]])
* '''RC:''' Grip Flat Core ([[Dragoon MS]]) Or Grip Flat Core Ultimate Mode ([[Dragoon MS UV]])

=== Use in [[Force Smash]] Customization ===
With a taller RC, the Force Smash mode of Advance Attacker is perfect for Force Smash customs.

* '''AR:''' Advance Attacker ([[Advance Striker]]) (Force Smash Mode)
* '''WD:'''[[Circle Balance]]
* '''RC:''' Tornado Change Core ([[Dark Leopard MS]])/Metal Sharp Core ([[Wyvern DJ]]) ([[Advance Eterner]])/Manual Change Core ([[Dranzer MS]])

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

* '''Weight:''' 16 grams

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

* '''Weight:''' 3 grams

Metal Flat core was supposed to be an upgrade to [[Gaia Dragoon MS]]' Flat core, and in general it is. It has superior speed, survival and durability than its predecessor. The metal tip allows for extremely high speeds matching that of Metal Change Core ([[Death Gargoyle MS]]) and falling behind only to Grip Flat Core [[Dragoon MS]]) and Grip Flat Core Ultimate Mode [[Dragoon MS UV]]), and because it is metal, it won't be worn down through use in battle.

This RC also has the benefit for being extremely short. It is the third shortest RC bested only by Grip Flat Core and Grip Flat Core Ultimate Mode. This height makes is a good option for employing upper attack combos and compact attackers. By using the Sliding Shoot technique this can be an effective attack RC; without it though it is very uncontrollable and wild in the stadium. This RC is difficult to control in a stadium without a [[Tornado Ridge]].

=== Use in [[Upper Attack]] Customization ===
The high movement speed of Metal Flat Core makes it a great choice for attack customs when [[Dragoon MS UV]]'s RC is not a viable option.

* '''AR:''' Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]]) /Samurai Upper ([[Samurai Changer MS]])
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Heavy]] /CWD Defense Ring ([[Sea Dragon]])
* '''RC:''' Metal Flat Core ([[Advance Striker]])

=== Use in ([[Smash Attack]]) Customization ===
Because the tip of Metal Flat Core is metal, its survival capability is much higher than that of Grip Flat Core and other similar RC's. This, along with the compact nature of Metal Spring and Circle Heavy make this high spin-rate Smash Attack custom something that can be used to counter the generic Grip Flat Core (Ultimate Mode) customs that are so commonly seen in tournaments.

* '''AR:''' Metal Spring ([[Einstein MS]]) / Metal Ape ([[Magical Ape MS]]) / Jiraiya Blade ([[Jiraiya MS]])
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Heavy]]
* '''RC:''' Metal Flat Core ([[Advance Striker]])

{{Beybox

}}

__TOC__

==Face: L. Drago==
The Face on this Beyblade depicts a Dragon, Draco, one of the 88 constellations in space.

==Clear Wheel: L. Drago==
*'''Weight:''' 3.7 grams

The L Drago Clear Wheel features three Dragon-head designs formed to create a circle. It carries a few distinct differences from the rest of the [[Metal Fight Beyblade#Hybrid Wheel System | Hybrid Wheel System]];
* Left-spin only.
* Unique shape is only compatible with Lightning Metal Wheel.
* L Drago's unique function is mode change. Turning it 180° allows one to switch between two modes on the Metal Wheel; Upper to Multi-Hit Mode. The Clear Wheel allows this differentiation since it covers three of the six protrusions at all times.

==Metal Wheel: Lightning==
*'''Weight:''' 30 grams
This Wheel is characterized by its prominent [[Smash Attack]] in Upper Mode. Of the total six protrusions, three are of the ‘Upper Mode’ and three are of the ‘Multi-Hit mode’. To switch between these modes, the Beyblade would need to be disassembled, and then the L Drago Clear Wheel rotated 180°.

Of the two available modes it is widely considered that ‘Upper Mode’ is superior. Contrary to the name, the strength of this wheel doesn’t come from [[Upper Attack]], but [[Smash Attack]]. Lightning does suffer from some recoil, but this problem can easily be rectified with both MF and RF. Paired with the right Track, Lightning can provide a ferocious Smash Attack.

===Use in Attack Customization===
A current top-tier [[Attack]] combo is ''MF Lightning L Drago CH120RF (Upper Mode)''. MF and RF help reduce the recoil Lightning experiences, and CH120 allows change in height to counter the opposing Beyblade.CH120 is used at the 145 height against a higher opposing Beyblade, and at the 120 height against medium and low height Beyblades. This allows Lightning make maximum contact with the opposing Wheel, rather than the Track.

==Track: 100==
*'''Weight:''' 1.0 grams
100 is currently the third lowest Track available. Its low height allows [[Attack]]-based Wheels such as [[Storm Pegasis 105RF | Storm]] to make good contact with opposing Tracks and Wheels.

==Bottom: Hole Flat==
*'''Weight:''' 0.5 grams

HF has a very similar movement speed to that of F, with the main difference being a slight [[Survival | Stamina]] improvement due to the hole in the middle of the tip. But, with this comes the detriment of even less grip to the stadium floor than F, and also increased fragility.

==Other Versions==
*'''Ultimate Lightning L. Drago 100HF''' - Coro Coro Limited Edition (Black Clear Wheel, Track and Bottom; Gold Metal Wheel)
*'''Lightning L. Drago 100HF''' Beyblade metal fusion Super Vortex Battle Set ( Red metal wheel track and bottom ;Gold Clear wheel )

==Overall==
[[Lightning L Drago 100HF]] is a useful Beyblade with more than one top-tier part included. While Hole Flat is only adequate, the 100 Track is an alternative to the 90 Track; which is more difficult to obtain. However, the real reason to own this Beyblade is Lightning L Drago; its effective [[Smash Attack]] in Upper mode makes it a worthwhile purchase for all Bladers. '''Every Blader should own at least one of this Beyblade.'''

Bladestorm: /* Lightning */

==Dark==
[[Image:05DarkBull.JPG|thumb|120px|Dark]]
*'''Weight:''' 31.4 grams
Dark has twelve spikes facing the clockwise direction. These protrusions are closely packed together with minimal space between each, resulting in an overall round shape. This shape hinders the Metal Wheel in two ways, as its protrusions are not pronounced enough to provide sufficient [[Smash Attack]]; while the perimeter is interrupted too frequently for sufficient [[Survival | Stamina]]. Additionally, its weight is distributed over too large a surface area, resulting in poor defensive capabilities.

Beyblade: [[Dark Bull H145SD]], [[Dark Cancer CH120SF]], [[Dark Wolf DF145FS]]

==Earth==
[[Image:10EarthAquila.JPG|thumb|120px|Earth (Second Mold)]]
*'''Weight:''' 33.1 grams
Earth has four thick, textured wings surrounding its perimeter, with each pair facing each other on a slight incline. The space created between the wings is quite small, and the resulting effect is similar to any Wheel that has no spaces: minimal recoil. Though it is on the lighter side of Metal Wheels, its almost unperturbed circular design, and minimal recoil make it one of the best, if not the best, [[Defense]]-oriented Wheel currently available for competitive play. The second mold of Earth is included with Earth Virgo GB145BS

Earth has two different molds. The first mold was released in BB-47 Starter Earth Aquila 145WD, and the second in both the purple WBBA "Event Special" MF Earth Aquila 105HF/S, and SonoKong manufactured Earth Metal Wheels. However, TAKARA-TOMY has since ceased production on the first mold, thus making it a difficult part to obtain. The second mold addressed breaking problems that the original mold faced by modifying the inside of each of Earth's wings. The new mold is up to three grams heavier than the old mold (30-31 grams versus 33 grams on the new mold), which makes it significantly more effective for [[Defense]] customizations. Therefore, the new mold is the preferred choice for Defense customs using Earth, while the original mold would be the best for [[Survival | Stamina]].

Beyblade: [[Earth Aquila 145WD]], [[Earth Virgo GB145BS]]

==Flame==
[[Image:05FlameLibra.JPG|thumb|120px|Flame]]
*'''Weight:''' 32.5 grams
The Metal Wheel Flame was first released with Flame Sagittario C145S. It is predominantly circular, with two small spikes and two additional smaller gaps on its circumference. The Wheel is relatively thin throughout, with the very edge of the Wheel being slightly thicker. Due to the design of Flame where the Wheel’s perimeter is raised slightly, more of the Track below is exposed compared to other Wheels, hence making it easier for other Beyblades to strike its Track. This significantly reduces its [[Defense]] capabilities.

Beyblade: [[Flame Libra T125ES]], [[Flame Sagittario C145S]], [[Flame Byxis 230WD]]

==Killer==
[[Image:KillerGemios22.jpg|thumb|120px|Killer]]
*'''Weight:''' 31.2 grams
Like its Metal System predecessor [[Gemios DF145FS | Gemios]], Killer has a textured, bumpy, two-winged design that ends in two rounded edges. However, unlike its predecessor, it is considerably thinner even with a smaller amount of metal dropping below the base of the Wheel. Being so thin, the edges of each wing do not apply as much force as those of the Gemios Metal Wheel; as a result, Killer loses any of the potential [[Smash Attack]] the first incarnation had.

Being so thin negates any possible defensive qualities, and though it may seem suited for [[Survival | Stamina]], it has shown no advantage over any of the top-tier [[Survival | Stamina]] Wheels like [[Virgo DF145BS | Virgo]], [[Burn Phoenix 135MS#Metal Wheel: Burn | Burn]] or even [[Earth Aquila 145WD#Metal Wheel: Earth | Earth]].

Hasbro changed the name of the wheel to "Evil" to avoid being offensive. As a result, the Hasbro version is "Evil Gemios" as opposed to "Killer Gemios".

Beyblade: [[Lightning L Drago 100HF]]

==Rock==
[[Image:002RockLeone.jpg|thumb|120px|Rock]]
*'''Weight:''' 31.4 grams
Rock has six large protrusions with small, shallow gaps between each one. It also overhangs the Track much like the original [[Leone 145D | Leone]] Metal Wheel, although to a smaller extent.

Rock as a [[Defense]] type is unable to match the qualities of Metal Wheels such as Earth and Virgo, because the shape of Rock produces a significant amount of recoil upon contact with another Wheel. As a result, Rock is an outclassed Defense Wheel.

Beyblade: [[Rock Leone 145WB]], [[Rock Giraffe R145WB]]

==Storm==
[[Image:03StormPegasis.jpg|thumb|120px|Storm]]
*'''Weight:''' 30.4 grams
The main shape of Storm consists of three wing like forms, which are used for considerable [[Smash Attack]]. The wheel is a cheaper alternative for that of [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]], and is considered by many to be inferior to the [[Lightning L Drago 100HF | Lightning]] Metal Wheel.

Storm Pegasis 100RF however is still a good [[Attack]] combo, due to a decent level of [[Smash Attack]] ability from the Storm Wheel. The slightly jagged end of each of the three wing like forms that Storm consists of are well suited for Smash. Quetzalcoatl, however, is still a far more consistent Attack wheel.

This Wheel is characterized by its prominent Smash Attack in Upper Mode. Of the total six protrusions, three are of the ‘Upper Mode’ and three are of the ‘Multi-Hit mode’. To switch between these modes, the Beyblade would need to be disassembled, and then the L Drago Clear Wheel rotated 180°.

Of the two available modes it is widely considered that ‘Upper Mode’ is superior. Contrary to the name, the strength of this wheel doesn’t come from [[Upper Attack]], but [[Smash Attack]]. Lightning does suffer from some recoil, but this problem can easily be rectified with both MF and RF. Paired with the right Track, Lightning can provide a ferocious Smash Attack.

Beyblade: [[Lightning L Drago 100HF]]

==Rock==
[[Image:002RockLeone.jpg|thumb|120px|Rock]]
*'''Weight:''' 31.4 grams
Rock has six large protrusions with small, shallow gaps between each one. It also overhangs the Track much like the original [[Leone 145D | Leone]] Metal Wheel, although to a smaller extent.

Rock as a [[Defense]] type is unable to match the qualities of Metal Wheels such as Earth and Virgo, because the shape of Rock produces a significant amount of recoil upon contact with another Wheel. As a result, Rock is an outclassed Defense Wheel.

Beyblade: [[Rock Leone 145WB]], [[Rock Giraffe R145WB]]

==Storm==
[[Image:03StormPegasis.jpg|thumb|120px|Storm]]
*'''Weight:''' 30.4 grams
The main shape of Storm consists of three wing like forms, which are used for considerable [[Smash Attack]]. The wheel is a cheaper alternative for that of [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]], and is considered by many to be inferior to the [[Lightning L Drago 100HF | Lightning]] Metal Wheel.

Storm Pegasis 100RF however is still a good [[Attack]] combo, due to a decent level of [[Smash Attack]] ability from the Storm Wheel. The slightly jagged end of each of the three wing like forms that Storm consists of are well suited for Smash. Quetzalcoatl, however, is still a far more consistent Attack wheel.

Beyblade: [[Storm Pegasis 105RF]]

Metal Fight Beyblade - Bottom List

2010-11-17T20:07:02Z

Bladestorm: /* FS: Flat Sharp */

==B: Ball==
[[Image:Clay_Aries_B.jpg|thumb|120px|B: Ball]]
The Bottom Ball’s tip is, as its name suggests, shaped like a ball. This hemispherical shape provides a large area for the Bottom to make contact with the Stadium floor; hence increasing friction and making it more difficult to knockout. B’s shape also makes it likely to stay in the central areas of the Stadium, hence maximizing the customization’s distance from the Stadium exits. B is therefore suitable for defensive purposes, although has been outclassed with the release of WB. One advantage it holds over Wide Ball is that it has more [[Survival | Stamina]], and does not require a weakened launch; B can be used if WB is not available.

Beyblades: [[Wolf D125B]], [[Escolpio WD145B]], [[Clay Aries ED145B]], [[Counter Leone D125B]]

==WB: Wide Ball==
[[Image:06RockLeone.jpg|thumb|120px|WB: Wide Ball]]
WB is essentially B, with a larger spherical surface, hence “wide”. As a result, it is seen as an improvement over B in terms of Defensive qualities. This is because of the greater surface area in contact with the Stadium floor at any one time.
However, because of this wider contact area, the Bottom also causes more movement compared to B. This is disadvantageous when facing an [[Attack]] type, because the [[Defense]] customization is closer to the Stadium exits, hence increasing the likelihood of a KO. To prevent this, many launch WB-based customizations at about 60-70% power, meaning that the Beyblade itself stays in the centre, while retaining the defensive qualities of WB.

Beyblades: [[Rock Leone 145WB]], [[Rock Giraffe R145WB]]

==D: Defense==
[[Image:Leobottom 800x600.jpg|thumb|120px|D: Defense]]
This is a Defense Bottom, which acts as a wider version of a Sharp tip. When hit by an opponent, a Beyblade with this Bottom will have lessened recoil and will recover from attacks more efficiently than a Sharp Tip. However, while recovering, the Defense Bottom will cause the Beyblade to lose some stamina, caused by the added friction.

Beyblades: [[Leone 145D]], [[Aries 125D]], [[Vulcan Horuseus 145D]]

==SD: Semi-Defense==
[[Image:11DarkBull.JPG|thumb|120px|SD: Semi-Defense]]
*'''Weight:''' 0.5 grams
Just as the Semi-Flat Bottom has a sharper tip than Flat, so too does Semi-Defense when compared to Defense. Before the release of SD, D was the absolute best [[Survival | Stamina]] Bottom available, but SD quickly took over the top spot.

SD is not able to wobble as much as D, so for defensive purposes, D should still be chosen over SD if you are trying to add some Stamina to your Defense custom. That being said, WD would be a better choice than D for that situation, and also arguably for Stamina as well because with the even wider tip. With it, it is allowed to circle the stadium in some situations when it is on a larger angle towards the end of a battle, thus outspinning D or SD based opponents. However, sometimes this does not happen, and SD easily knocks over the wobbling WD custom before it topples over itself.

It really comes down to personal preference when deciding whether to use SD or WD because they are so closely matched. For pure Stamina it impossible to tell which would win a given match, but WD would prepare you for more situations by being able to take hits better than SD. Test both and decide for yourself which one works best for what you are trying to do.

Beyblades: [[Dark Bull H145SD]], [[Poison Serpent SW145SD]]

==WD: Wide Defense==
[[Image:8EarthAquila.JPG|thumb|120px|WD: Wide Defense]]
Wide Defense, as its name implies is the widest of the “Defense” series of Bottoms (D, SD, and now WD). This brings numerous advantages, but also some disadvantages when compared to the other “Defense” Bottoms. Because of its massive width that reaches the edge of the Bottom's perimeter, it is able to wobble at a significantly larger angle for a longer period of time than D or SD, and at a much lower spin rate. This can be advantageous in many battles, particularly those between two [[Survival | Stamina]] types when they are about to topple over; however, if you happen to have a weaker shot than your opponent who is using something such as [[Virgo DF145BS | Virgo]] DF145SD, WDs low spin rate towards the end of the battle will make it extremely easy for the opponent to knock it completely over. This low spin rate towards the end of the battle is created because in the process of wobbling at such a large angle, more friction is made with the stadium floor, thus decreasing its Stamina. This is all avoidable however if your shot is at least as powerful as your opponent, as the extra time it is able to spin on an angle will allow you to narrowly outspin your D or SD based opponent.

WD has significant defensive capabilities as well, but because it still uses a form of sharp tip, its friction with the stadium floor is decreased, which as a result makes it easier to knock around than something like WB which has much more friction with the stadium floor. WD does of course offer superior Stamina to WB which in rare cases would be an advantage, but WB more often than not has enough Stamina to outlast [[Attack]] types.

Beyblades: [[Earth Aquila 145WD]], [[Gravity Perseus AD145WD]], [[Flame Byxis 230WD]], [[Grand Capricorne 145WD]]

==S: Sharp==
[[Image:Sgtobottom 800x600.jpg|thumb|120px|S: Sharp]]
The Sharp Bottom offers very little movement and as such provides no attack potential. The pointed tip allows for very little friction between the Bottom and the stadium surface, which helps prevent the loss of spin velocity. However, due to the fine nature of the tip, the Bottom is easily knocked off balance, and hence is outclassed by superior alternatives such as D or SD.

Beyblades: [[Sagittario 145S]], [[Flame Sagittario C145S]], [[Infinity Libra GB145S]]

==BS: Ball Sharp==
[[Image: 7Libra.JPG|thumb|120px|BS: Ball Sharp]]
BSs performance is quite similar to that of S. BS offers very little movement and as such gives no [[Attack]] potential. The pointed tip allows for very little friction between the Bottom and the stadium surface, which helps prevent the loss of [[spin velocity]]. BS has decent [[Survival | Stamina]], but because the tip is so fine, it experiences the same balance issues that S does. Both D and SD are much better choices.

Beyblades: [[Libra DF145BS]], [[Virgo DF145BS]], [[Pisces D125BS]], [[Earth Virgo GB145BS]]

==ES: Eternal Sharp==
[[Image:10FlameLibra.JPG|thumb|120px|ES: Eternal Sharp]]
Eternal Sharp features a free-spinning tip attached to a metal shaft which is held by the Bottom. The part was one of the most heavily anticipated parts in the MFB lineup when first announced, but ES is actually a hugely disappointing part in terms of performance.

Firstly, ES lacks a metal bearing, which would significantly reduce the friction between the free-spinning tip and the rest of the Bottom. All of the best free-spinning tips, notably [[Wolborg MS#Running Core (RC): Bearing Core | Bearing Core]], had NSK Shield bearings which allowed unhindered spin.

Secondly, the tip shape of ES is not conducive to optimum [[Survival | Stamina]]; the sharp nature of the Bottom means it is easily destabilized. As all Sharp tips do, Eternal Sharp also has trouble regaining balance, hence making this a poor choice for Stamina. That said, ES still remains superior to BS and S as Stamina Bottoms.

Beyblades: [[Flame Libra T125ES]], [[Thermal Pisces T125ES]]

==FS: Flat Sharp==
[[Image:KillerGemios66.jpg|thumb|120px|FS: Flat Sharp]]
FS features a flat tip with a smaller, sharper tip in the centre. As a result, when launched at a straight angle, the Beyblade spins on this sharp tip, with very little movement. However, when tilted, either from the contact of an opposing Beyblade or from the launch, the Bottom moves in an offensive pattern. However, it suffers from the same problems as other Balance Bottoms, in that the two qualities are compromised, resulting in mediocre performance in both fields.

Beyblades: [[Gemios DF145FS]], [[Dark Wolf DF145FS]], [[Mad Cancer CH120FS]], [[Killer Gemios DF145FS]]

==F: Flat==
[[Image:Pgssbottom 800x600.jpg|thumb|120px|F: Flat]]
The Flat Bottom has a flat tip, which gives it an offensive movement pattern. It is the equivalent of Flat Core (HMS) or SG Flat (Plastic).

Beyblades: [[Pegasis 105F]], [[Aquario 105F]], [[L Drago 105F]]

==SF: Semi-Flat==
[[Image:09darkcancer.jpg|thumb|120px| SF: Semi-Flat]]
This tip is Semi-Flat. It provides a semi-aggressive movement pattern. SF exhibits increased Defense over the Sharp and Defense Bottoms due to the increased friction. The downside is that Stamina is decreased and causes the Beyblade to move around more, exposing it to an Attack type. The trade-off in stamina for stability makes it inferior to SD and WD in terms of Stamina. Semi-Flat tip is usually used in Balance type Beyblades as it combines aspects of Attack, Defense and Stamina.

Beyblades: [[Bull 125SF]], [[Dark Cancer CH120SF]]

==RF: Rubber Flat==
[[Image:07StormPegasis.jpg|thumb|120px|RF: Rubber Flat]]
RF, as its name implies has a flat, hard rubber tip, with a small indentation on the base of the tip. Its tip has just about the same width as WF, and is the second highest Bottom next to HF/S, which makes the shortest Track, 90, particularly useful in combination with this part.

By using its wide surface area and rubber material, the Bottom has a large amount of traction against the stadium floor, resulting in a such a fast and powerful attack pattern that it often renders itself useless by self-KOing the Beyblade it is being used on. Part of the blame for this problem can be put on the poor Tornado Ridge of the Attack Stadium, but the fact remains that RF was designed long after the release of the Attack Stadium, and should be able to maintain itself within it. To alleviate this problem it is recommended that you never use a brand new RF in any sort of competitive situation, as its likelihood of self-KOing is much higher; wear it down a little with some practice battles first. When this is done, the rapid movement of RF may subside slightly, but it becomes more controllable, and thus, more useful.

The use of rubber and the friction it creates with the stadium floor does lower its [[Survival | Stamina]] in comparison to plastic flat tips such as F and WF, but this is usually not a problem as an [[Attack]] types goal is to KO the other Beyblade, and it also helps reduce the recoil of violent wheels such as [[Sagittario 145S | Sagittario]].

Beyblade: [[Storm Pegasis 105RF]]

==HF: Hole Flat==
[[Image:0009LLDrago.JPG|thumb|120px|HF: Hole Flat]]
HF has a very similar movement speed to that of F, with the main difference being a slight [[Survival | Stamina]] improvement due to the hole in the middle of the tip. But, with this comes the detriment of even less grip to the stadium floor than F, and also increased fragility.

Beyblades: [[Capricorne 100HF]], [[Lightning L Drago 100HF]], [[Cyber Pegasis 100HF]], [[Thermal Lacerta WA130HF]]

==HF/S: Hole Flat/Sharp==
[[Image:03WindAquario.JPG|thumb|120px|HF/S (Sharp Mode)]]
[[Image:04WindAquario.JPG|thumb|120px|HF/S (Hole Flat Mode)]]
HF/S is the tallest Bottom to date. HF/S’ gimmick is mode-change. The idea behind the mode-change is potent as it allows users to adapt their strategy between rounds, so that they can adjust their type to counter their opponents. The user is able to change the tip manually between Hole Flat, and Sharp, by rotating the lower portion of the Bottom:

----
*'''Sharp Mode:'''
There is balance problems associated with the Sharp Mode because of its height, and also just because it is a Sharp tip, which always have poor balance. There is no reason to choose this over Bottoms such as D, SD, or WD.

*'''Hole Flat Mode:'''
Compared to the original HF Bottom, the HF of HF/S is much wider to accommodate enough space for the Sharp Bottom to fit through when changed. It is just as wide as WF, and as a result, is one of the fastest moving Bottoms available aside from RF. Its usefulness in traditional low Attack customizations is somewhat hindered by it being the tallest Bottom released to date, but the speed is still there, so it does have use.
----

Currently there are no competitive customizations utilizing HF/S, but it is an interesting Bottom to experiment with.

==90==
''No Content Yet. Under Construction.''

==100==
[[Image:08LLDrago.JPG|thumb|120px|100 Track]]
*'''Weight:''' 1.0 grams
100 is currently the third lowest Track available. Its low height allows [[Attack]]-based Wheels such as [[Storm Pegasis 105RF | Storm]] to make good contact with opposing Tracks and Wheels.

Beyblade: [[Lightning L Drago 100HF]], [[Wind Aquario 100HF/S]], [[Cyber Pegasis 100HF]]

==105==
[[Image:08StormPegasis.jpg|thumb|120px|105 Track]]
*'''Weight:''' 1.0 grams
105 is the fourth shortest Track and has been released multiple times. Although 90 and 100 have been proven to be better options for most [[Attack]] types, 105 is still a decent option if the aforementioned Tracks are unavailable.

Beyblade: [[Pegasis 105F]], [[Storm Pegasis 105RF]], [[Aquario 105F]], [[L Drago 105F]]

==CH120: Change 120==
[[Image:06darkcancer.jpg|thumb|120px|CH120]]
*'''Weight:''' 2.7 grams
CH120 is unique as it features a height-changing gimmick. The user is allowed a choice of using 120 or 145 as the Track's height. This is done by rotating the bottom portion of the Track and pulling/pushing the central part out/in, and then rotating the bottom portion back to lock the height. Importantly, this can be done between each round of a match, as it does not involve any part-swapping.

The advantages of this Track are plentiful. Its most obvious benefit is allowing the user to change the height of their Beyblade between rounds; this means that the user can adapt their strategy to counter the opponents during a match. CH120 is currently the only Track featuring a 120 height. This height is useful for many [[Attack]] types.

Due to its weight in comparison to other 145 Tracks and lack of protrusions likely to produce recoil, CH120 has some uses with regard to [[Defense]] customizations.

Beyblade: [[Dark Cancer CH120SF]], [[Mad Cancer CH120FS]]

==125==
* '''Weight:''' 1.0 grams
[[Image:Bulltrack 800x600.jpg|thumb|120px|125]]
The 125 Track is a midway between the 105 and the 145 Tracks. Utilised in mid-height stamina combos, it is more difficult to destablise compared to 145 height stamina combos. It has declined in popularity as the choice mid-height track due to the release of T125 and D125.

Beyblade: [[Bull 125SF]]

==D125==
''No Content Yet. Under Construction.''

==T125: Tornado 125==
[[Image:07FlameLibra.JPG|thumb|120px|T125]]
*'''Weight:''' 1.7 grams
T125 has four upward-facing wing protrusions spaced apart widely. The Track is designed to work in a similar way to DF145, although the effect it produces is negligible. The performance of this Track is similar to D125, and as a height, is generally overshadowed by CH120.

Beyblade: [[Flame Libra T125ES]], [[Thermal Pisces T125ES]], [[Rock Escolpio T125JB]]

==145==
[[Image:007EarthAquila.JPG|thumb|120px|145]]
*'''Weight:''' 1.5 grams
145 is the highest Track currently available, along with the various other 145-variants (C145, DF145, etc.). It can be used in Stamina customs to great effect due to its tall height, which allows for more wobbling as the Beyblade loses its spin velocity, but that being said, DF145 has this same effect but also the added bonus of its “Down Force” which while negligible, stabilizes the Beyblade it is being used on slightly. 145, being as tall as makes it easily susceptible to low Attackers; however, this should not be seen as a drawback because normally Stamina types are not used against Attack types.

Beyblade: [[Earth Aquila 145WD]], [[Leone 145D]], [[Rock Leone 145WB]], [[Sagittario 145S]]

==C145: Claw 145==
[[Image:09FlameSagittario.JPG|thumb|120px|C145 Track]]
*'''Weight:''' 3.2 grams
C145 has three wings which extend outwards, each separately joined onto the underside of the Track. These are free moving, and hence when the Beyblade is launched, these point outwards due to spin velocity. Their free moving nature make them very effective for defensive purposes, as they are able to withstand low hits to the Track without significant spin loss. Furthermore, the Track is significantly heavier than non-gimmicked Tracks such as 145, providing extra weight essential for [[Defense]]. As such, the Track is an essential part for current Defense customizations.

Beyblade: [[Flame Sagittario C145S]]

==DF145: Down Force 145==
[[Image:Virgo5.jpg|thumb|120px|DF145]]
*'''Weight:''' 3 grams
DF145 has four upward facing wings protruding from the top of the Track, which aside from giving it extra weight are meant to push air downwards. While the effects of the wings themselves may be negligible, they likely do help stabilize the Beyblade they are being used on to some capacity. This capability makes it quite useful for [[Survival | Stamina]] customs, where staying balanced and retaining spin is of utmost importance. The wings can also help protect from low, 90 or 100 based Attackers, but to a much lesser extent than something like C145.

Beyblade: [[Dark Wolf DF145FS]], [[Killer Gemios DF145FS]], [[Virgo DF145BS]]

==ED145: Eternal Defense 145==
* '''Weight:''' 3.6 grams
[[Image:ED145.jpg|thumb|120px|ED145]]
ED145 features three “wings” which rotate around the Track freely. The wings are similar to that of WD145. Because of their free-spinning nature, they can be used in Defense customisations, such as ''MF Libra ED145WB''; however, the defensive capabilities of this part are not as effective as C145, as it does not absorb hits as successfully. The wings which rotate are hindered without the mechanism of a bearing, hence creating a force of friction between the wings and the body of the Track, in turn resulting in less significant damage absorption. Furthermore, it is easy for the low attacker’s Wheel to be caught between the Wheel and ED145, hence causing a lot of recoil and spin reduction to the [[Defense]] customization.

Beyblade: [[Clay Aries ED145B]]

==GB145: Gravity Bowl 145==
[[Image:09EarthVirgo.JPG|thumb|120px]]
*'''Weight:''' 4.5 grams
GB145 is a wide, round track featuring two free moving metal balls. These balls move toward the outside of the track while spinning, causing some additional spin retaining force. Weighing in at 4.5 grams, GB145 is currently the second heaviest track available, and as such is extremely useful in [[Defense]] customizations. Because it lacks energy-absorbing free spinning wings, it is not as effective as [[Flame Sagittario C145S | C145]] against low attackers such as [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]] 90RF. However, the increased weight increases stability, which is very useful in Defense customizations

Beyblade: [[Earth Virgo GB145BS]], [[Infinity Libra GB145S]]

==H145: Horn 145 (First Mold)==
[[Image:10DarkBull.JPG|thumb|120px|H145 (First Mold)]]
*'''Weight:''' 4 grams
H145 has two wings with two various protrusions, representing the horns of a Bull surrounding its perimeter. These four points are meant to provide [[Smash Attack]], and they do succeed on some levels. However, because the horns are so pronounced, and because the gaps between the wings are so wide, significant recoil is produced, especially when used in combination with small Metal Wheels that allow the Horns to extend well past the perimeter of the Wheel.

While H145 may not be an entirely noteworthy part as far as competitive customizations go, it is still quite a fun part to play with. You can score many impressive KO's with the recoil it produces in the first few seconds of a battle, but at the same time, this recoil does work against you in some battles, causing a self-KO or if not, a severe loss of [[Survival | Stamina]].

Beyblade: [[Dark Bull H145SD]]

==H145: Horn 145 (Second Mold)==
[[Image:12DarkBull.JPG|thumb|120px|H145 (Second Mold)]]
*'''Weight:''' 4.3 grams
H145 has two different molds. The first version's wings were not reinforced in anyway, so they were prone to breakages in some cases. The second mold which was brought into production a couple months after it was originally released rectified this problem by reinforcing the wings with a significant amount of plastic between the inside of the wings and the outside of the Track. This increased the weight of the Track to 4.3 grams, only .2 grams lighter than the second heaviest Track, GB145. The increased weight not only reduces breakages, but it also marginally helps reduce the recoil it produces.

The wings which rotate are hindered without the mechanism of a bearing, hence creating a force of friction between the wings and the body of the Track, in turn resulting in less significant damage absorption. Furthermore, it is easy for the low attacker’s Wheel to be caught between the Wheel and ED145, hence causing a lot of recoil and spin reduction to the [[Defense]] customization.

==GB145: Gravity Bowl 145==
[[IImage:09EarthVirgo.JPG|thumb|120px]]
*'''Weight:''' 4.5 grams
GB145 is a wide, round track featuring two free moving metal balls. These balls move toward the outside of the track while spinning, causing some additional spin retaining force. Weighing in at 4.5 grams, GB145 is currently the second heaviest track available, and as such is extremely useful in [[Defense]] customizations. Because it lacks energy-absorbing free spinning wings, it is not as effective as [[Flame Sagittario C145S | C145]] against low attackers such as [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]] 90RF. However, the increased weight increases stability, which is very useful in Defense customizations

==H145: Horn 145 (First Mold)==
[[Image:10DarkBull.JPG|thumb|120px|H145 (First Mold)]]
*'''Weight:''' 4 grams
H145 has two wings with two various protrusions, representing the horns of a Bull surrounding its perimeter. These four points are meant to provide [[Smash Attack]], and they do succeed on some levels. However, because the horns are so pronounced, and because the gaps between the wings are so wide, significant recoil is produced, especially when used in combination with small Metal Wheels that allow the Horns to extend well past the perimeter of the Wheel.

While H145 may not be an entirely noteworthy part as far as competitive customizations go, it is still quite a fun part to play with. You can score many impressive KO's with the recoil it produces in the first few seconds of a battle, but at the same time, this recoil does work against you in some battles, causing a self-KO or if not, a severe loss of [[Survival | Stamina]].

==H145: Horn 145 (Second Mold)==
[[Image:12DarkBull.JPG|thumb|120px|H145 (Second Mold)]]
*'''Weight:''' 4.3 grams
H145 has two different molds. The first version's wings were not reinforced in anyway, so they were prone to breakages in some cases. The second mold which was brought into production a couple months after it was originally released rectified this problem by reinforcing the wings with a significant amount of plastic between the inside of the wings and the outside of the Track. This increased the weight of the Track to 4.3 grams, only .2 grams lighter than the second heaviest Track, GB145. The increased weight not only reduces breakages, but it also marginally helps reduce the recoil it produces.

Bladestorm:

== Aries ==
*'''Weight:''' 2.7grams
Aries was originally released as a bright pink Clear Wheel with three “heads” which point outwards, hence forming a roughly triangular perimeter.

Beyblade: [[Clay Aries ED145B]]

== Aquila ==
[[Image:003EarthAquila.JPG|thumb|120px|Aquila]]
*'''Weight:''' 2.9 grams
Aquila was first released in a translucent purple colour. Each side of this Clear Wheel represents an Eagle's pair of wings, with the notches on either side representing its head. It was clearly designed to fit with the aesthetic of the Earth Metal Wheel with its two spikes/notches fitting nicely over the small notches on the inner section of Earth.

Beyblade: [[Earth Aquila 145WD]]

== Aquario ==
[[Image:005WindAquario.JPG|thumb|120px|Aquario]]
*'''Weight:''' 3.2 grams
Aquario’s original release colour is navy, featuring a wave pattern which repeats itself four times. It is amongst the heaviest Clear Wheels, making it one of the best Clear Wheel choices for [[Metal Fight Beyblade#Hybrid Wheel System | HWS]] based [[Defense]] customizations.

Beyblade: [[Wind Aquario 100HF/S]]

== Bull ==
[[Image:07DarkBull.JPG|thumb|120px|Bull]]
*'''Weight:''' 3.3 grams
Bull's original release colour is red, and features a two-winged design with two small openings between each wing. It is the heaviest Clear Wheel in Right spin with excellent weight distribution. This makes it one of the best choices for HWS based Defense and Stamina customizations.

Beyblade: [[Dark Bull H145SD]]

== Cancer ==
[[Image:05darkcancer.jpg|thumb|120px|Cancer]]
*'''Weight:''' 3.0 grams
The Cancer Clear Wheel featured in Random Booster Light Vol.1 Mad Cancer CH120FS is of a brighter red, while the BB-55 Booster version is slightly darker. Both are identical in shape and weight.

Beyblade: [[Dark Cancer CH120SF]]

== Gemios ==
[[Image:KillerGemios4.jpg|thumb|120px|Gemios]]
*'''Weight:''' 2.2 grams
Gemios has a follows the same aesthetic principles as the Gemios Metal Wheel, and Killer, with a similar two-winged design. It is the lightest Clear Wheel available.

Beyblade: [[Killer Gemios DF145FS]]

== L Drago ==
[[Image:04LLDrago.JPG|thumb|120px|L Drago]]
*'''Weight:''' 3.7 grams
The L Drago Clear Wheel features three Dragon-head designs formed to create a circle. It carries a few distinct differences from the majority of the Hybrid Wheel System:
1. Left-spin only.
2. Unique shape is only compatible with Lightning Metal Wheel.
3. L Drago's unique function is mode change. Turning it 180° allows one to switch between two modes on the Metal Wheel; Upper to Multi-Hit Mode. The Clear Wheel allows this differentiation since it covers three of the six protrusions at all times.

Beyblade: [[Lightning L Drago 100HF]]
