Jiraiya MS

{{Beybox
| image =JiraiyaMS.jpg
| full item name = Jiraiya MS (Metal Spirits)
| item number = MA-22
| beyblade system = [[HMS]]
| beyblade type = [[Survival]]
}}

__TOC__

== Name Change ==
[[Jiraiya MS]] was released by [[Hasbro]] as Bearing Survivor MS.

== Bit Protector (BP): Jiraiya Emblem ==
The [[Bit Protector]] of this Beyblade is Jiraiya Emblem. It is the third mould version of Bit Protectors. It is the tightest version; there is almost no room between the BP and AR.

== Attack Ring (AR): Jiraiya Blade ==

* '''Weight:''' 22 grams

Jiraiya Blade is a deceptively useful AR. It equals [[Samurai Changer MS]]'s Samurai Upper AR in weight, making it also the heaviest AR in the [[HMS]] series. The weight distribution is on the outside due to the [[metal frame]] being on the perimeter. On the outside of the metal frame are small metal spikes with [[Smash Attack]] capability.

In addition to the heavy weight caused by its thick metal frame, Jiraiya Blade has another attribute that works very well with this weight; its size. It is just a little larger than [[Magical Ape MS]]'s Metal Ape, the smallest AR in the HMS series. This gives Jiraiya Blade great [[spin velocity]]. You can replace Metal Ape with it in your [[Compact]] combo to add more [[Attack]] ability, and add it to other types of combos to add spin velocity and Attack ability.

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

Generally, Smash Attack combos rely on high movement speed for their power. However, with Jiraiya Blade you can substitute high movement speed with high [[spin velocity]]. Using Metal Change Core, you can have this Beyblade remain stationary and hit with its high spin velocity, or make it move quickly for damage using high movement speed.

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

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

You can also use this AR to add some [[Attack]] ability and [[spin velocity]] to your [[Survival]]-based combos:

* '''AR:''' Jiraiya Blade ([[Jiraiya MS]])
* '''WD:''' [[Circle Wide]]
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core ([[Wolborg MS]])

== Weight Disk (WD): CWD Free Cross ==

CWD Free Cross is a free-spinning CWD with a circular shape and four spikes sticking out of it, resembling a ninja star. This CWD doesn't have any real usage.

== Running Core (RC): Bearing Core 2 ==

* '''Weight:''' 4 grams

Bearing Core 2 is the successor to [[Wolborg 2]]'s SG Bearing Version 2. It is essentially the same design as [[Wolborg MS]]'s Bearing Core, except that instead of having a plastic tip, it has a hard rubber tip to add [[Defense]] ability. The plastic casing of the RC appears to be the same mold, but the tip design makes Bearing Core 2 slightly taller than Bearing Core.

The rubber itself is slightly hard and more similar to the rubber used on [[Dragoon MF]]'s Metal Weight Grip Flat Core rather than the Grip Flat Cores of [[Dragoon MS]] and [[Dragoon MS UV]]. This allows it to keep more [[Survival]] ability than a softer rubber would, but also decreases the [[Defense]] ability drastically.

In [[Tornado Balance Type S]], it's impossible to use Bearing Core for Survival-types. The smaller stadium makes it too easy to knock out. If you need to use a bearing tip in this stadium, you should use Bearing Core 2. However, even in that situation this RC may not have enough Defense to survive powerful attackers. However, for beating strong Attack Bladers in larger stadiums, this RC is a great choice.

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

You can build good Survival and Defense-type Beyblades with this RC. Here are some examples:

* '''AR:''' Circle Upper ([[Death Gargoyle MS]])
* '''WD:''' CWD Reverse Defenser ([[Dranzer MF]])/CWD Free Survivor ([[Thunder Dragon]])
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core 2 ([[Jiraiya MS]]) 

* '''AR:''' Samurai Upper ([[Samurai Changer MS]])
* '''WD:''' CWD God Ring ([[Shining God MS]])
* '''RC:''' Bearing Core 2 ([[Jiraiya MS]])

This is not an exhaustive list of strong combos that can be built with Bearing Core 2. You should try your own combinations and see what works best for you.

===Tuning: Tip Condition ===

* '''Mint Condition:''' A mint condition tip will have more [[Survival]] ability, but less [[Defense]]. It should be used to defeat less aggressive Beyblades. In [[Tornado Balance Type S]], mint condition's Defense-ability will generally be too low to withstand attacks. You should consider using [[Wolborg MS]]'s Bearing Core for situations where a mint tip seems appropriate.

* '''Worn Condition:''' You can wear down Bearing Core 2's tip quickly through natural play. A worn down tip will have more Defense ability. Generally, for situations where Bearing Core 2 is a better choice than Bearing Core, a worn tip will work better.

== Overall ==

[[Jiraiya MS]] is a good package. Although CWD Free Cross is a useless CWD, Jiraiya Blade has some niche use among [[Compact]]-type Beyblades. However, the main feature of Jiraiya MS is Bearing Core 2. While it may not be as large of a staple as [[Wolborg MS]]'s Bearing Core, it is not meant to be; whereas Wolborg MS is the [[Survival]] king, Bearing Core 2 serves a very niche purpose and it serves it well. If you want to play Survival against skilled Attack Bladers, this RC is a perfect choice. '''Every Blader should own multiples of this Beyblade.'''

Guardian Revizer 160SB

}}

__TOC__

== Name Change ==
Guardian Reviser is released by [[Hasbro]] as Guardian Leviathan 160SB.

==Stone Face: Revizer==
*'''Weight:''' 1.2 grams
The sticker for this aqua green Stone Face depicts a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviathan Leviathan].

==Chrome Wheel: Revizer==
*'''Weight:''' 30.6 grams

Revizer has a mostly circular shape for increased Defense, and its design is only interrupted by two holes that detail the fins on the Chrome Wheel. Overall, a very visible pattern of serpent heads, clawed feet, fins and spikes can be observed on Revizer's design.

==Crystal Wheel: Guardian==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|4.1 gram
|Full Width:
|46.0 mm
|Minimum Width:
|33.0 mm
|Full Height:
|5.0 mm
|Height at borders:
|3.0 mm
|}

This Crystal Wheel compliments Revizer exceptionally with its original release in clear blue. Although named Guardian, it acts as the water beneath the leviathan-inspired design of Revizer. Underneath the latter, Guardian barely protrudes and mostly provides bulged protection from lower Attacks. It embraces Revizer's shape completely, even following the curves of the holes which stop Revizer from being entirely circular.

==Track: 160==
*'''Weight:''' 2.1 grams

Unlike the majority of the non-gimmick Tracks, 160 resembles 230 more than 145, with a round and large body around its hexagon-shaped core. This construction is probably meant to strengthen it, since chances of getting hit are relatively low compared to 230, and the stair-like design would have become too slim at this height.

==Bottom: Sharp Ball==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|0.6 gram
|Full Width:
|15.91 mm
|Tip Width:
|9.22 mm
|Full Height:
|8.77 mm
|Tip Height:
|5.01 mm
|Tip Angle:
|25°
|}

SB is essentially cone-shaped, with a very subtle rounded tip at its end. It differs from BS exactly for that reason: while BS consists of a ball with a slight sharp tip, SB has the opposite with a sharp base that ends in a more ball-like tip.

Dark Knight Dragooon LW160BSF

| item number = BBG-16
| beyblade system = [[Beyblade Zero-G]]
| beyblade type = [[Attack]]
| element = Thunder
}}

__TOC__

'''Note:''' The spelling "Dragooon" was probably chosen by TAKARA-TOMY to clearly differentiate the Bakuten Shoot Beyblade Dragoon tops and this Zero-G Beyblade.

Dark Knight Dragooon is the first left-spin Beyblade in the Zero-G series.

==Stone Face: Dragooon==
*'''Weight:''' 1.22 grams
With an original release of a blood red Stone Face, the mark on this sticker illustrates the profile view of a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon Dragon], drawn in a European fashion.

==Chrome Wheel: Dragooon==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|30.90 grams
|Full Width:
|47.30 mm
|Maximum Height:
|6.34 mm
|Minimum Height:
|3.1 mm
|}
With three heads, Dragooon strongly resembles most L-Drago Wheels, especially since it's a left-spin Chrome Wheel. Two heads circle almost half of its circumference in a lateral way, while one head is actually flat on top, offering relief upwards only by its lower jaw and teeth. Two webbed wings also cover the rest of the design, with claws encircling the hole where the orb from the Crystal Wheel gets inserted. The sides of the Dragooon Chrome Wheel are therefore composed of the top of one dragon head, the sides of two other heads, the curved structures of the wings' fingers, and the straight ends of the membrane between them. In general, Dragooon consequently has four sections.

Interestingly, Dragooon can be matched in Synchrom with Chrome Wheels that spin in the opposite direction. The combo it is in can only spin left if Dragooon is placed on top of the other Chrome Wheel though, unless another left-spin Chrome Wheel is positioned atop it instead.

==Crystal Wheel: Dark Knight==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|3.87 grams
|Full Width:
|45.18 mm
|Minimum Width:
|41.0 mm
|Maximum Height:
|6.78 mm
|Minimum Height:
|3.5 mm
|}
Dark Knight is composed of a half-circle of sharp studs, with another half almost resembling a scythe. An interesting feature of this Crystal Wheel is the smooth slope created by this scythe in its design. In its original release, Dark Knight is clear white.

Contrary to previous trends in Metal Fight Beyblade, Dark Knight can be fit on any other Chrome Wheel, even of the right-spin kind. It must be placed in Crystal Up Mode, however, to make the customization it is a part of spin left.

==Track: Left Wing 160==
*'''Weight:''' 2.36 grams
The LW160 Track is in most aspects entirely identical to W145, however the wings face the left, and its height is different.

==Bottom: Blade Semi Flat==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|1.19 gram
|Full Width:
|19.70 mm
|Inner Blade Width:
|16.04 mm
|Tip Width:
|5.50 mm
|Flat Tip Width:
|2.66 mm
|Full Height:
|10.89 mm
|Tip Height:
|7.48 mm
|Tip Angle:
|40°
|}
[[image:MFB_PSF_01.jpg|thumb|Semi Flat Bottoms comparison (3/4 view): SF, BSF, WSF]][[image:MFB_PSF_02.jpg|thumb|Semi Flat Bottoms comparison (top view): SF, BSF WSF]]

While its tip is a simple Semi Flat one, it is mounted on an imposing base with a linear row of blades around it. These blades are generally shaped just like LW160's wings, however they are less spaced. BSF was clearly designed for optimal use in Zero-G Stadiums, where the blades on this Bottom could come into contact with the Stadiums' slope, considering the many angles that are possible in their new swaying gimmick.

Diablo Nemesis X:D

2014-01-02T17:44:29Z

Justaway: /* Diablo Nemesis X:D - Original Version */

{{Beybox
| image = DiabloNemesis_AttackMode.jpg
| full item name = Diablo Nemesis X:D
| item number = BB-122
| beyblade system = [[Metal Fight Beyblade]]
| beyblade type = [[Balance]]
}}

__TOC__

==Face: Nemesis==
The Nemesis Face Mark is an amalgam of the Face Marks from thirteen of the 4D system Beyblades, excluding [[Omega Dragonis 85XF|Omega Dragonis]]. From the bottom, going clockwise, one can observe the following Face Mark features: [[Variares D:D|VariAres]]’ Face Mark's chin, [[Death Quetzalcoatl 125RDF|Quetzalcoatl]]’s wing, [[Blitz Unicorno 100RSF|Unicorno II]]’s head, [[Big Bang Pegasis F:D|Pegasis III]]’s wing, [[L Drago Destroy F:S|L Drago III]]’s head, [[Jade Jupiter S130RB|Jupiter]]’s eagle head, [[Beat Lynx TH170WD|Lynx]]’s eye, [[Fang Leone 130W²D|Leone II]]’s paw, [[Scythe Kronos T125EDS|Kronos]]’ scythe, and [[Kreis Cygnus 145WD|Cygnus]]’ swan head. In the center, there are three eyes which resemble [[Phantom Orion B:D|Orion]]’s, but the middle eye is replaced with Nemesis’ unique mask and surrounded by black- and purple-colored wisps from the [[Fusion Hades AD145SWD|Hades]] Face Mark helmet which extend to the perimeter of the Face design. The left eye is adorned with [[Flame Sagittario C145S|Sagittario]]’s arrow and the teeth are from [[Duo Uranus 230WD|Uranus]]. Overall, the Nemesis Face Mark forms quite a chimera.

Despite not being a member of the 4D system, Flame Sagittario is included in the Nemesis Face Mark because the owner of Flame Sagittario in the Metal Fight Beyblade anime, Kenta, acts as a companion to the owner of L-Drago Destroy, Ryuuga, and eventually receives a [[Flash Sagittario 230WD|4D system Beyblade]] through the star fragment obtained from L-Drago Destroy. Since Flame Sagittario was present at the creation of Nemesis in the anime, its design is incorporated into Diablo Nemesis.

==4D Clear Wheel: Nemesis==
*'''Weight:''' 3.23 grams

Just like the Nemesis Face Mark, the Nemesis 4D Clear Wheel offers an integration of the design highlights of other 4D Beyblades at a complex level. There are two halves to the Nemesis 4D Clear Wheel, creating a design similar to the Pegasis III Clear Wheel. Cygnus' 4D Clear Wheel is represented on the smooth, flowing side with the large wing expanding behind it, while Uranus' 4D Clear Wheel is shown on the other side depicting some form of tendrils or whiskers behind it. Officially, a part of Jade Jupiter is integrated into the Nemesis 4D Clear Wheel through the placement of circles on the 4D Clear Wheel which represent the metal balls in Jupiter’s 4D Metal Wheel, but the Nemesis 4D Clear Wheel is already saturated and the design is very difficult to distinguish.

Nemesis, despite being one of the heaviest Clear Wheels released, is outclassed by other Clear Wheels such as Aquario, Cancer, and Kerbecs due to its irregular weight distribution and poorly designed shape, and therefore sees little use outside of aesthetic purposes.

==4D Metal Wheel: Diablo==
*'''Weight:''' 51.26 grams

Diablo is the heaviest standalone Metal Wheel ever released. Like the other parts of Diablo Nemesis X:D, the Diablo 4D Metal Wheel incorporates several 4D Beyblade design points in its overall schema. Because Kreis Cygnus was not out at the time of Diablo Nemesis's release, the latter's 4D Metal Wheel was the first to introduce a semi-free-spinning gimmick in Metal Fight Beyblade. The placement of the Metal Frame in Ultimate Balance Mode was also new to the hobby.

====Metal Frame====
*'''Weight:''' 25.35 grams
Diablo’s Metal Frame consists of three mugshot heads distributed around its circumference. The biggest head is a lion’s head, depicting Leone, with red eyes and the top row of teeth. Part of the lion’s mane is visible around the head. The smallest of the three heads is a lynx’s head, from Lynx, with yellow-black cat eyes and two paws. Again, only the upper row of teeth is visible on this head. The last of the three heads, with an intermediate size, is derived from Orion, and shows Orion’s face from the Phantom Metal Wheel in Stamina mode with blue eyes and a full snarl on its face, unlike the smirk seen on the original 4D Metal Wheel.

Since the Metal Frame simply rests in the space between the elevated Core and the 4D Bottom when in Ultimate Balance Mode, it can rotate freely to a point: spinning on its own, the Metal Frame would not rotate independently. It is the impact of the opposing Beyblade that will make it spin semi-freely towards the right or towards the left depending on the spin direction of the opponent, trajectory, and angle of impact. The Metal Frame has one of three positions it pauses on after each impact due to the Metal Frame's three-headed shape. These positions push down on the small pins on top of X:D with varying force and activate the descent or retraction of the sharp tip from X:D, either completely or only half-way, consequently changing the Beyblade's behavior.

====Core====
*'''Weight:''' 25.94 grams
The design of the underside of Diablo’s Core originates from the Scythe 4D Metal Wheel on Kronos and allows for smooth rotation of the Metal Frame when in Ultimate Balance Mode. The Core depicts one of Unicorno II’s heads, originating from the Unicorno II 4D Clear Wheel, connected to the bones from Quetzalcoatl's 4D Metal Wheel on one side, with the wings of Pegasis III's 4D Clear Wheel on the other side linked to a dragon head derived from L-Drago III's 4D Metal Wheel. On the side of Quetzalcoatl's and Unicorno II's sections is an irregular, jagged edge reminiscent of Hades' 4D Metal Wheel. In front of the unicorn head is a small portion resembling a scythe from Kronos' 4D Metal Wheel, which is connected to a section of a bow from Sagittario’s Clear[b] W[b]heel. Finally, in between the wings of Pegasis and the bow of Sagittario is a section derived from the wings of VariAres' 4D Metal Wheel.

Like all 4D Metal Wheels, Diablo has a mode change. This is performed by flipping the Metal Frame and placing it under the metal frame. However, this mode change is unique because it requires the X:D 4D Bottom in order to stay in place and work. The two modes are:

----
* '''Attack Mode''': The normal mode for Diablo Nemesis; the Metal Frame lies on top of the Core in an upright position with the heads facing upright as well. The difference in the heights of each head, with Lynx's head being the smallest, creates varying relief around the Clear Wheel. In this mode, one can manually choose between XF or S on X:D before the beginning of the battle without any automatic changes occurring.

* '''Ultimate Balance Mode''': It is the X:D-exclusive mode. the Metal Frame lies upside-down underneath the Core. The Clear Wheel is fully exposed and X:D is holding the Metal Frame in place underneath the Core. The Metal Frame can spin freely and change the tip of X:D when contact is made on itself.
----

Attack Mode is considered to be vastly superior to Ultimate Balance Mode due to its universal compatibility with other parts combined with the higher attack power offered by the former. Ultimate Balance Mode requires the use of the outclassed 4D Bottom X:D and causes decreased attack power due to the free-spinning nature of the Metal Frame in this mode. Ultimate Balance Mode also offers poorer stamina because despite theoretically absorbing spin with the semi-free-spinning 4D Metal Wheel upon impact, too much disturbance is caused to the spinning Beyblade to allow for an increase in stamina.

Diablo, despite its extreme weight, does not see much use in Defense or Stamina customization thanks to its aggressive design. At the same time, the shape is not aggressive enough to produce the large amounts of smash required in the metagame to create a successful KO. Instead, Diablo has found its niche in Balance customizations which successfully combine its Attack and Defense properties.

===Use in Balance Customizations===
Due to the aforementioned qualities, Diablo has found use in Balance customizations such as MF-H Diablo Kerbecs BD145R2F. This combination works as an effective Anti-Attack Beyblade, scoring extremely high win rates against top-tier Attack Beyblades of the metagame. While not matching the sheer weight and power of Zero-G’s Synchrom combinations, Diablo certainly finds use as a powerhouse against Attack types through its utilization as an aggressive Defense Beyblade.

==4D Bottom: X:Drive==
[[image:Ultimate Balance Mode.jpg|thumb|Ultimate Balance Mode]]
*'''Weight:''' 7.19 grams

X:D is the widest 4D Bottom ever released. It extends almost all the way to the end of Diablo, where it spreads beyond the Core but is fully encompassed by the Metal Frame. Following the overarching principle of Diablo Nemesis’ design, X:D is a collection of several 4D Beyblades' features. X:D mixes L Drago Destroy's F:S and Big Bang Pegasis's F:D in a way, but mainly draws from VariAres's D:D in terms of function. X:D has three tips: XF, S, and a new tip called S²D, for Stern Semi Defense. Stern is the German word for "star" and appears specifically when talking about Nemesis in legends, further displaying the connection between X:D and the overall Beyblade. X:D’s tip change can be either automatic or fixed when on Diablo. In Diablo’s Attack Mode, one can manually choose between XF or S, while in Diablo’s Ultimate Balance Mode where only X:D can be used, one can automatically go from XF to S²D to S. This can occur in the opposite order if the Beyblade fighting Diablo either hits Diablo in the other direction or spins left itself. Before launching, one can choose which tip to start on. The following patterns are therefore possible: 
<blockquote>XF -> S²D -> S 
S -> S²D -> XF 
S²D -> S -> S²D -> XF 
S²D -> XF -> S²D -> S </blockquote>

The mechanism housed inside X:D to allow for automatic tip change and tip selection is quite complex. When in either of the fixed states of Attack Mode, the tip selection depends on the manual rotation of two tabs on the underside of the 4D Bottom. In Attack Mode, to choose the tip, one needs to push those tabs down, and then rotate the tabs to lock the 4D Bottom in either XF or S mode. When the tab is turned to the left, the Extreme Flat Bottom is exposed, but when it is turned to the right the Sharp tip protrudes from the center. In Ultimate Balance Mode, two small tabs get pushed down or up by the interior shape of Diablo's Metal Frame, which contracts the spring inside X:D and makes the sharp tip come out more. However, this will only occur if the tabs are originally placed in the Extreme Flat position. When the tabs are forcefully pulled and rotated clockwise, causing the sharp tip to manually protrude, no automatic mode change will occur in Ultimate Balance Mode.

Like most 4D Bottoms, X:D sees little use competitively. Its reliance on an inconsistent mode change when used with Diablo in Ultimate Balance Mode prevents any major usage. Both of its tips in the fixed state are not nearly as useful as the XF or S bottoms themselves when combined with other Tracks at variable heights, and having access to the unique tip S²D is not worth the drawbacks associated with it, especially since little difference has been noted in performance between it and the S tip. XF on X:D is prone to self-KO and is unable to perform a Sliding Shoot effectively, while S is outclassed overall as a Stamina bottom by other options like WD. While there may be use for it in the newer Zero-G stadiums due to the unique properties of said stadiums, extensive testing has not been performed by several bladers to validate the usefulness of this part in such situations.

==Overall==

Diablo Nemesis is an interesting bey. Unique from a design standpoint, this Beyblade contains outclassed but viable parts such as the Nemesis 4D Clear Wheel and X:D. However, the main draw of this Beyblade is the powerful Diablo 4D Metal Wheel, which sees use in top-tier customizations. While by no means worthy of an immediate purchase, '''Bladers who already own the fundamental parts in the metagame should purchase this Beyblade.'''

}}

__TOC__

==Face: Orion==
The Face of this Beyblade depicts the Orion constellation, a mighty hunter in Greek Mythology.

==4D Clear Wheel: Orion==
*'''Weight:''' 3.0 grams

Orion is a four-sided 4D Clear Wheel that has two sharper contours and two broad edges. The two sharper sides of the 4D Clear Wheel represent the top of Orion's forehead, and create a distinct face when used in conjunction with Phantom. It contains the iron powder that all 4D Clear Wheels have. However, this does not add significant weight.

===Use in Attack Customization===
The Orion 4D Clear Wheel works well with the Flash 4D Metal Wheel in combinations such as ''MF-H Flash Orion GB145RF'': Orion's weight distribution is synergetic with Flash's, while Orion's shape exposes Flash's contact points perfectly, its broader sides complimenting Flash's oval shape in Attack Mode.

==4D Metal Wheel: Phantom==
*'''Weight:''' 44.50 grams
Phantom is composed of both a Metal Frame and a Core. By removing and flipping the Metal Frame, Phantom can alternate between two modes: Stamina Mode and Attack Mode.

====Metal Frame====
*'''Weight:''' 42.0 grams
Phantom's Metal Frame makes up for most of Phantom's weight. It consists of two vastly different faces. The first one, facing up when Phantom is in Stamina Mode (henceforth known as the ''Stamina Face''), displays Orion's figure--eyes, nose and grin--twice, as well as two identical long surfaces--smooth, but uneven--representing Orion's sword and scabbard. On each is engraved two shallow holes where stickers can be applied to depict a total of four blue stars, which, combined with Orion's Face's three blue flames, form the Orion constellation. The second face, the ''Attack Face'', on the other hand, is a rough, but even, patterned surface, only broken by a single octagonal shape overlapping and sticking out of the otherwise circular Metal Wheel's shape.

====Core====
*'''Weight:''' 2.50 grams
Phantom's Core is a small piece of polycarbonate, roughly the size of a Clear Wheel. It features four small, upward protrusions that fit in the Metal Frame's four matching slot, locking the latter in place in either mode.

Phantom's modes, Stamina and Attack, are distinguished as followed:
----
*'''Stamina Mode'''
Stamina Mode is when the Metal Frame displays the ''Stamina Face'', while the ''Attack Face'' faces the Stadium floor.

*'''Attack Mode'''
Stamina Mode is when the Metal Frame displays the ''Attack Face'', while the ''Stamina Face'' faces the Stadium floor.
----

Generally, Phantom's Stamina Mode is preferred since this 4D Metal Wheel performs the best in top-tier Stamina combos and that its design is much smoother.

The Cancer, Orion and Hades Clear Wheels are considered to have the best synergy with Phantom, with Cancer being able to spin around 2 minutes longer than Aquario on it, another widely-used Stamina Clear Wheel.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
Phantom's Stamina Mode demonstrates the best endurance in combos such as ''Phantom Cancer W145WD'' or ''Phantom Cancer TH170/230D''.

===Use in Tornado Staller Customization===
Phantom's Attack Mode has been shown to work well in the Tornado Staller combo ''MF-L Phantom Hades/Cancer 85MF'', which circles the BeyStadium's Tornado Ridge until it gradually dives towards the center for a finishing strike. This combination is functional in large part due to Phantom's nearly unmatched characteristics: the combination of top-tier Stamina with enough Attack potential to deliver meaningful hits to weakened opponents.

===Mold Variation: Hasbro Metal Fury Version===
Like all of Hasbro's Metal Fury releases, Metal Fury Phantom's parts are fused into one piece, stuck in its default mode (Stamina Mode). What stands as the PC Core on the original version is made completely out of metal. However, the resulting increase in weight is offset by the hollowed underside of Metal Fury Phantom, which removes about ten grams from the wheel's total weight, a trait it shares with other Metal Fury Metal Wheels. This, combined with the reduced Flywheel Effect from the PC Core being made of metal, makes Phantom no better than Earth and Burn, which are completely outclassed, even in Hasbro BeyStadiums, by Basalt, Hell, and Hyperblade Phantom, amongst the good Stamina Metal Wheels distributed by Hasbro. The Metal Fury version of this 4D Metal Wheel is thoroughly useless. The original 4D version of Phantom has since then been made available to Hasbro Bladers through Hasbro's Hyperblade series.

==4D Bottom: Bearing Drive (B:D)==
{| class="wikitable"

|3.45 grams
|Full Width:
| mm
|Tip Width:
| mm
|Full Height:
| mm
|Tip Height:
| mm
|Tip Angle:
|25°
|}

B:D has a unique, tall shape, and a height comparable to the TH170 (170 height) Track without a Bottom associated to the latter. It is also of a translucent yellow color which allows a faint view of the internal workings of the Bearings. This metal ball bearing mechanism allows the Beyblade to spin for long periods of time with minimal amounts of friction. Indeed, B:D paired with its release parts Phantom Orion is one of the only combinations able to spin up to 7 minutes.

Bearing Drive features, inside its plastic casing, a metal shaft connected to the middle of the 4D Bottom, a metal casing that is connected to the tip of B:D, and metal spheres in between them. Sometimes, the bearing is able to stop the shaft from spinning, resulting in less friction between the stadium floor and itself. These factors increase Stamina, but there exists many mold variations even within the same distributing company and general inconsistencies that can make this rarely happen. B:D's solo spin time often ranges between 2-5 minutes.

This interesting 4D Bottom reminescent of HMS' Bearing Cores however has considerable issues. Firstly, since all it focuses on is stamina, it remains very easy to knock out of the stadium, with its tip being similar to other vulnerable Stamina Bottoms such as WD. Secondly, while its height isn't a huge mistake and still allows the customization it is part of to be balanced with a decent center of gravity, the fact that this height is fixed becomes a disadvantage against the more varied assortments of Attack combinations.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
While B:D has many issues in a [[BeyStadium Attack Type (MFB)|BeyStadium Attack Type]], it has proven to work extremely well in Zero-G Stadiums, such as the combo Gargole/Revizer/Killerken Dragooon B:D. In fact, B:D does not appear to suffer the same vulnerability issues as in the traditional metagame, due to Zero-G's wild, swaying gimmick that give new angles of stadiums for B:D to embrace.

==Overall==
Phantom Orion B:D is an extremely versatile Beyblade that contains many useful parts: Phantom's Stamina is roughly equal to that of Duo, albeit performing better in different competitive situations; B:D is considered one of the best parts to use in Zero-G Stadiums, especially with beginners. '''Every Blader should own at least one of this Beyblade'''.

__TOC__

== Attack Ring (AR): Eight Spiker==
* '''Weight:''' 5 grams

'''Eight Spiker''' takes the form of four dragon heads followed by slightly smaller fins, for a total of eight contact points. Each one of its eight well-spaced, well-shaped contact points is further enhanced by small spikes, adding [[Smash_Attack#Points_of_Pressure|Spike Attack]] to its already prodigious [[Smash Attack]]. Despite its hyper-aggressive profile, Eight Spiker is low on [[Recoil]], and is capable of exceptionally clean knock outs at any stage of a battle.

It is therefore one of the best left spin Smash Attack ARs. However, being effective in left spin only comes at a cost: it is unable to make use of [[Dragoon Grip Attacker|Grip Base]], the fastest low-height base. Additionally, its lack of any [[Upper Attack]] slopes means that it has more trouble outspinning opponents when using bases such as [[Gaia Dragoon V|SG Metal Flat 2]]. Nonetheless, it is an excellent [[Smash Attack]] AR, commonly considered the best Left-Spin Smash AR, and is, at the very least, a strong contender for this title.

=== Use in [[Smash Attack]] Customization ===
* '''AR:''' Eight Spiker ([[Dragoon G]])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Defense]]
* '''SG:''' [[Spin_Gear#V_and_V2_Series_Spin_Gears|Neo Left SG]] (Normal Core) ([[Dragoon V2]])
* '''SP:''' Fin Tectors ([[Draciel V2]])
* '''BB:''' Customize Grip Base ([[Dragoon V2]])

In this custom, Eight Spiker's consistently powerful Smash Attack is enhanced in a couple ways: by the outwardly focused weight of Wide Defense–which increases movement speed–and by the additional lower Smash Attack provided by the Fin Tectors, which is useful given the slightly tall nature of Customize Grip Base.

== Weight Disk (WD): 10 Wide ==
'''See''' [[Wide Weight Disks|10 Wide]]

== Spin Gear (SG): Left Engine Gear (Metal Semi-Flat) ==
* '''Weight:''' 11 grams

[[Dragoon G]] is equipped with a Left Engine Gear which has a Metal Semi-Flat tip. Despite the name, however, the tip is flat, only having slight rounding of the edges. This provides aggressive movement and decent [[Survival]]. The Engine Gear itself provides a burst of speed (the timing of which depends on the base it is used with). However, the tip isn't fully able to make use of this, and often, the most noticeable effect of activation is self-KO.

Furthermore, it is too tall to hit many opponents, and is limited to Engine-Gear compatible bases, all of which are impractical and/or bulky. Overall, this part has no competitive use.

== Blade Base (BB): First Clutch Base (Dragoon G version) ==
* '''Weight:''' 7 grams

Like all First Clutch blade bases, Dragoon G’s base activates the Engine Gear at the start of the battle.
The base has eight protrusions, four of which are similar in shape to Eight Spiker, the other four are slightly smaller, and lack the spikes. While this base provides some means to make contact with lower opponents, it is very prone to [[Recoil]], and as such is not commonly used.

== Overall ==
The excellent Attack Ring and useful Weight Disk, alongside the fact it comes with a Launcher and Dragon Winder make '''Dragoon G''' an enticing purchase, given it is generally cheaply available NIB. However, the requirement of a Left Spin Gear and compatible Blade Base to use Eight Spiker effectively means that Right Spin alternatives such as [[Driger G]] should be considered instead, and even if one decides they wish to use Left Spin, [[Metal Driger]] is arguably a better source of a competitive Attack Ring as it comes with more useful parts overall. '''This Beyblade is not a must-have, but it is nevertheless a welcome addition to any collection.'''

__TOC__

== Name Changes ==

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

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

The AR of Burning Kerberous is very unique in that each of its wings perform a different type of attack. The thickest wing performs [[Spike Attack]], the next wing (clockwise) performs [[Upper Attack]], and the wing counter-clockwise from the Spike Attack wing performs [[Force Smash]]. This AR can be used to differentiate between the different types of attack, but it is a jack of all trades and a master of none; it cannot be used in serious competitive play.

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

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

Sample combination:
*'''AR:''' [[Bearing Gyros]] AR
*'''WD:''' [[Wide Survivor]]
*'''SG:''' [[Spin_Gear#V_and_V2_Series_Spin_Gears|Neo Left SG]] (Double Bearing Core)
*'''SP:''' Survivor Ring ([[Dark Series]])
*'''BB:''' Customize Grip ([[Dragoon V2]])

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

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

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

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

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

==Name Variation==

[[Hasbro]] released this product as Strata Dragoon V.

== Attack Ring (AR): Dragon Breaker ==

* '''Weight:''' 8 grams

Dragon Breaker has an unorthodox shaped AR. It is more in the shape of an oval and contains two distinctive sets of spikes. The first set of spikes are slanted in shape while the second set contains several smaller spikes. Because of this, it is unable to have stable hits when in contact with opposing Beyblades. In order to maximize its potential [[Smash Attack]], it must used in left spin, however, the combination of a higher Smash Attack with its unorthodox shape causes it to recoil frequently making it not worth using.

Dragon Breaker also has a [[free-spinning]] [[S-AR]] that contains four spikes. It does contain some amount of Smash Attack in left spin as well. However, when the S-AR gets in contact with opposing force, it hinders the rest of the Beyblade instead of spinning freely because of its larger structure unlike other S-ARs such as War Lion ([[Galeon]]).

The BB of Gaia Dragoon V, SG Metal Flat 2, is the second BB released with a metal flat tip with SG Metal Flat ([[Driger V]]) being the first.

SG Metal Flat 2 is the improved version of [[SG Flat]] because it is 1 gram heavier and remains nearly the same height. The most distinct change in this BB is having a metal flat tip. Because of this, the [[Spin Velocity]] of the BB when spinning increases due to less friction against the stadium surface. This makes it one of the most useful BB for [[Attack]]-types such as [[Smash Attack]] and [[Upper Attack]].

=== Use in [[Smash Attack]] Customization ===
Although the metal flat tip isn't as fast as other BBs with grip tips such as Grip Base ([[Grip Attacker]]) and Customize Grip 2 ([[Takara]] [[Uriel 2]]), its [[Survival]] ability lasts longer allowing more hits to happen. Here is an example:

* '''AR:''' Triple Wing ([[Trygle]])
* '''WD:''' [[Wide Defense]]
* '''SG:''' [[Spin Gear#V and V2 Series Spin Gears | Neo Right SG]]
* '''SG Core:''' Heavy Metal Core ([[Takara]] [[Metal Driger]])
* '''BB:''' SG Metal Flat 2 ([[Gaia Dragoon V]])

Triple Wing, one of the best [[Smash Attack]] ARs, combined with Wide Defense accounts for the offense in this. Although the wings of the AR aren't as exposed due to the WD, the Wide Defense adds to the amount of Smash Attack it has from the notches along it. Together with SG Metal Flat 2,

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

* '''AR:''' Triple Tiger ([[Driger G]])
* '''WD:''' [[Heavy Weight Disks | Ten Heavy]]
* '''SG:''' [[Spin Gear#V and V2 Series Spin Gears | Neo-Right SG]]
* '''SG Core:''' S-MG Core
* '''BB:''' SG Metal Flat 2 ([[Gaia Dragoon V]])

Triple Tiger has the capability of both [[Smash Attack]] as well as [[Upper Attack]] depending on how it is used. In this case, because SG Metal Flat 2 is about the average height for an [[Attack]]-type base, it has chances to perform both types of Attack. Although versatile with both Smash Attack and Upper Attack, its only flaw is that it doesn't truly focus on just one type of Attack. If you want to focus on just Upper Attack, a lower BB such as Storm Grip ([[Dragoon S]]) should be used.

== Overall ==
A powerful if somewhat difficult to use Attack Ring, useful if generic Spin Gear and Weight Disk and an excellent Blade Base make '''Gaia Dragoon V''' a very enticing purchase, however the wide availability of more useful or equally-useful-but-cheaper alternatives to each of these parts means it is not a must-have. '''This Beyblade is not a must-have for anyone other than Attack Type fans, but it is nevertheless a welcome addition to any collection.'''
