'''Note:''' This article was written near the release of [[Metal Fight Beyblade]] and must be updated. Please do not take all of the information here as the truth, as they had not been tested as extensively then as they have been now, and the uses of their parts have changed since their original release. Updates will be posted on the main page when completed.
__TOC__

Leone is one of the first four Metal Fight Beyblade's released, and it is part of the Horoscope Series along with [[Pegasis 105F | Pegasis]], [[Bull 125SF | Bull]], and [[Sagittario 145S | Sagittario]].

==Face: Leone==
The face on this Beyblade depicts Leo, which is a sign in the Zodiac.

==Wheel: Leone==
* '''Weight:''' 38 grams
* '''Maximum Outer Diameter:''' 43.57 Millimeters
* '''Maximum Height:''' 8.97 Millimeters

The Leone Wheel has six protrusions, each separated by v-shaped gaps, resembling the paws of a lion. Three of the protrusions have a purple marking on them, with the paws sloping slightly down and curving outwards. The rest of the three protrusions have the paws sloped outwards and downwards, with no paint marks. Leone's Wheel has been designed to be very compact although due to the high recoil of this wheel it has been outclassed for defensive purposes by Earth, Libra and even Rock. Due to the wheel's high recoil it has proved to have promise as an attack wheel and is best utilised in the [[Attack]] customizations MF Leone H145RF, MF Leone 145RF, Leone 90HF or Leone 100RF as a Recoil attacker.

==Track: 145 (14.5mm)==
*'''Weight:''' 1.5 grams

145, along with its variants (C145, DF145, etc.), was once the highest Track 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 Stamina Types are not traditionally designed to be used against [[Attack]] Types.

===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]].

==Bottom: Defense==

* '''Weight:''' 1 gram

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.

===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 to success in ''Virgo 90D''.

==Other Versions==
* BB-08: Leone [[Pegasis 105F | 105F]]
* BB-13: Leone [[Bull 125SF | 125]][[Sagittario 145S |S]]
* BB-22: Leone D125B (Reshuffle Set)

==Overall==
Leone 145D is composed entirely of at least somewhat useful parts, and is a welcome addition for those who already have a decent collection of Metal Fight Beyblades.

__TOC__

==Face: Leone==
The Face on this Beyblade depicts '''Leo''', the fifth astrological sign in the zodiac. Leo is the Lion.

==Clear Wheel: Leone==
*'''Weight:''' 3.0 grams
The regular release of Leone is a translucent, blue-green piece. Leone is circular with small ridge details.

==Metal Wheel: 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 is somewhat useful for [[Smash Attack]], and can be used to relative success in conjunction with a Metal Face.

==Track: 145==
*'''Weight:''' 1.5 grams

145, along with its variants (C145, DF145, etc.), was once the highest Track 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 Stamina Types are not traditionally designed to be used against [[Attack]] Types.

===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 can be put to good use in the custom, ''Burn Bull 145SD''.

==Bottom: Wide Ball==
*'''Weight:''' 0.7 grams
WB used to be widely considered the best Defense bottom when launched at 80% power with a Beylauncher. It has since been outclassed by the likes of RS, RSF, and CS.

===Use in Defense Customization===
WB was once one of the preferred choices of Bottom for Defense customizations, however, it has been outclassed in performance by RS in the top-tier customization ''MF-H Earth Bull GB145WB''.

Ray Unicorno D125CS

2011-12-02T22:57:59Z

DaBull124: /* Clear Wheel: Unicorno */

{{Beybox
| image = RayUnicornoD125CS.jpg
| full item name = Ray Unicorno D125CS
| item number = BB-71
| beyblade system = [[Metal Fight Beyblade]]
| beyblade type = [[Attack]]
| starter or booster =
}}

==Name Change==
[[Ray Unicorno D125CS]] was released by [[Hasbro]] as Ray Striker D125CS.

==Face: Unicorno==

The face of Ray Unicorno depicts Monoceros, one of the 88 constellations in space. Monoceros depicts the Unicorn.

==Clear Wheel: Unicorno==
* '''Weight:''' 2.7 grams

The Unicorno Clear Wheel was initially released in a teal tint. It features three unicorns with orange horns. Being one of the few three-sided Clear Wheels, Unicorno is especially useful for three-sided Metal Wheels like Ray, Torch, and [[Hell Kerbecs BD145DS#Metal Wheel: Hell | Hell]] to provide an even weight distribution.

==Metal Wheel: Ray==
* '''Weight:''' 30.4 grams

Ray has a relatively thin, slightly bumpy, three-winged design. Between each of these "wings" are small gaps, which allow the blunt ends of each wing to provide a small amount of [[Smash Attack]]. Additionally, along each wing there are two indents which follow the contours of the Metal Wheel; these indents are pronounced enough to provide additional Spike Attack and work in tandem with the aforementioned blunt ends of each wing. Ray's window to KO the opponent is quite small, as its Smash Attack is only prominent at the very high spin velocities found at the beginning of each battle.

Ray has fallen into disuse since the introduction of RS and other rubber-based [[Defense]] Bottoms, as it has tremendous difficulty KOing such Bottoms. And, there are also numerous other Metal Wheels that outclass it, such as [[Lightning L Drago 100HF#Metal Wheel: Lightning | Lightning]] and [[Gravity Perseus AD145WD#Metal Wheel: Gravity | Gravity]].

===IMPORTANT: Mold Variations===
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ray has two different molds. The first mold was released in the Ray Unicorno D125CS Starter Set, and the second mold was released with the Ray Unicorno D125CS Aurora Version, the Ray Unicorno D125CS Booster Set, and [[Ray Gil 100RSF]]. The second mold rectifies the original mold’s breakage problems. The gaps between the second mold are slightly wider and are more rounded on the inner gaps of Ray than the original mold. This change was carried foward to all further releases of the Ray wheel, such as Hasbro's release of Ray Striker.

===Use in Attack Customization===

Though Ray is now competitively negligible with the release of rubber defense tips, you can maximize whatever [[Smash Attack]] Ray is capable of with the combination: ''Ray Unicorno 100RF/R²F''.

==Track: Defense 125==
* '''Weight:''' 1.7 grams

Defense 125 is similar to 125 and Tornado 125. Apart from the shifts in weight distribution and air resistance, there are few notable differences. The ring serves no significant defensive purposes. The track’s relatively low height prevents the opponent’s Bey from making any sort of consistent contact. D125 is an outclassed track for [[Survival | Stamina]] and [[Defense]] Customizations.

===Use in Attack customization===

D125 can be used to some extent in some [[Attack]] customizations. ''MF Gravity Perseus D125RF'' is one such combination.

===Use in Stamina customization===

If the 85, AD145 or 230 tracks are unavailable to you, D125 can be put to use in the customization ''Burn Bull D125WD/SD''.

==Bottom: Coat Sharp==
* '''Weight:''' 0.8 grams

The "Sharp" in "Coat Sharp" is derived from the standard plastic S series Bottoms, while the "Coat" refers to the rubber coating that now surrounds the sharp tip. CS acts similar to FS and the [[Death Gargoyle MS#Running Core (RC): Metal Change Core | Metal Change Core]] from the [[HMS]] era.

Because of the rubber coating, different –sometimes odd– attack patterns can be produced by CS. When launched at an angle or hit onto the Beystadium's slope, it will move more aggressively due to the increase in the amount of traction going from the sharp tip, to the rubber coating. Unforunately however, when CS will begin to move aggressively is often unpredictable, and when it does happen, it usually circles the Tornado Ridge, rather than sweeping into the centre of the Beystadium, as if you had Banked or done Sliding Shoot. That said, while CS's aggressive movement can be unpredictable, this is often not a large issue, because some CS's actually cannot be shot or hit into "attack mode" at all. This can be a boon or bane depending on what your Beyblade and strategy is.

CS's also has top-tier [[Defense]] capabilities, particularly the ones which have trouble moving aggressively. The rubber coat allows for more friction once it gets moved onto the Beystadium's slope, causing more grip, which helps in defending against oncoming attacks.

While the defense that the rubber coating of CS provides is good, it is unquestionably inferior to that of RS and RSF. However, what you might lose in defensive ability, you more than gain back in [[Survival | Stamina]]; for this reason, CS is often used over RS and RSF, which both have incredibly poor Stamina. CS is even used over Bottoms such as those from the Defense series (WD, SD, etc.) as well sometimes, especially on higher Tracks such as 230, which are only made stronger with the additional height of CS, without sacrificing very much Stamina.

===Use in Defense Customization===

To put CS's defensive capabilities to use, ''MF-H Basalt Aquario BD145CS'' would be the prime choice.

===Use in Balance Customization===

Along with having great Stamina, the combo ''MF Hell Bull/Kerbecs BD145CS (Boost Mode)'' also has good Defense against Attackers which will be partially neutralized by both the wide, plastic "Boost Disk", and the rubber surrounding the sharp tip of CS.

===Use in Attack Customization===

If you happen to have an aggressive CS you can put it to use in the customization ''MF Lightning LDrago BD145CS''.

==Other Versions==
* '''Ray Unicorno D125CS Aurora Version''' - WBBA Exclusive (Clear)
* '''Burn Unicorno SW145JB''' - [[Random Booster Vol.5 Grand Ketos]] (Orange)
* '''Poison Unicorno 130HF''' - Random Booster Vol.5 Grand Ketos (Yellow)
* '''Ray Striker (Unicorno) D125CS''' - Hasbro
* '''Ray Striker (Unicorno) D125CS''' - Hasbro Face Off Set (painted parts)

==Gallery==

==Overall==
While most of [[Ray Unicorno D125CS]]'s parts may be outclassed, the incredible versatility of CS–a Bottom which can be used in all types to great effect–makes this Beyblade well worth the purchase. Because CS wears down over time, '''Every Blader should own multiples of this Beyblade.'''
