__TOC__

==Face: Quetzalcoatl==
The Face depicts Quetzalcoatl, the Mesoamerican feathered serpent deity. This Face mark differs from both Metal System [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]] Face designs, however. Though more closely resembling its first Face mark, this version has more colours, exaggerated traits, a more fierce design, as well as patterns in the sticker's background, inspired by the artwork of Mesoamerican civilizations.

==4D Clear Wheel: Quetzalcoatl [[Image:BeywikiBannerOK.jpg]]==
*'''Weight:''' 2.6 grams

The Quetzalcoatl Clear Wheel is of a pale golden colour and illustrates two winged serpents with a head more like that of a cobra. Competitively, Quetzalcoatl has niche uses in Clear Wheel attack, which it does effectively to thwart opposing Beyblades of greater height thanks to the cobra heads that curve upwards, but overall, it is not necessary. It has some attack potential when paired with Flash.

==4D Metal Wheel: Death [[Image:BeywikiBannerOK.jpg]]==
*'''Weight:''' 43.6 grams

The gimmick introduced in this 4D Metal Wheel is that one of the two metal parts, the Metal Frame, can be flipped to form another mode. Death has no PC Frame, only metal pieces, which makes it one of the heaviest 4D Metal Wheels available.

====Metal Frame====
*'''Weight:'''
The Metal Frame of this 4D Metal Wheel is the piece that acts as the primary mechanism behind its Mode Change. It has four small indents which act as a locking mechanism when placed on the Core. On the Defense side it has eight shallow slopes with a reptile-like texture and the large slopes of the Attack mode connect perfectly with the Core's. On the Attack side, as previously mentioned, there are eight significantly larger slopes each with the face of a serpent sculpted in.

====Core====
*'''Weight:'''
As with any other Core in 4D, this part connects the Wheel with the Track. Its design is based on wings, so the combination of the Metal Frame and the Core indeed illustrate a winged serpent, which is the representation of Quetzalcoatl.

Like all 4D Metal Wheels, Death features a mode changing gimmick. It works by flipping the Metal Frame on the opposite side while the Beyblade is disassembled. The two Modes are:

----
* '''Attack Mode'''
If Death is set in Attack Mode, the Metal Frame shows details of several serpent heads with fangs, enhancing the term "Attack". This mode is in no way more useful than Defense Mode as it does not provide sufficient Smash Attack to be of any use in Attack Type customs, and its Recoil renders it useless when compared to Defense Mode for other areas.

* '''Defense Mode'''
If the Metal Frame is completely flipped to be in Defense Mode, this other side reveals a design of serpent scales, which relates to the term "Defense" and how animals defend themselves with their back, their scales, etc. Defense Mode's top half is also sloped, which reduces Recoil and is also an uncommon trait among Metal Wheels.
----

Defense Mode is preferred over Attack Mode in every aspect due its much smoother design, which provides much less Recoil. Death, in Defense Mode, was arguably the first to dethrone Basalt in terms of Defensive prowess: it may not have had the weight that Basalt did, but the fact that it had much, much less Recoil made it the better Metal Wheel. Without this Recoil, Death is much harder for any Attack Type to KO or for many Stamina Types to outspin, defeating most top-tier combinations in the latter category.

If the unbalanced Basalt wins because it can wobble and smash away the opponent’s spin while conserving its own rather than simply absorbing shocks, the balanced Death wins by shaving, or grinding, away the opponent’s spin instead using the relief created by the Metal Wheel's designs on the sides. While Death has not necessarily outclassed Basalt, it does earn a position as a top-tier Defense Metal Wheel. However, with the release of much heavier Attack parts such as Wyvang, Balro and Gryph, as well as defense parts like Revizer and Genbull, Death became outclassed. It can still be used to a certain extent of effectiveness in Defense, but it's nowhere near as sturdy as it once was.

===Use in Defense Customizations===
Death, in Defense Mode, can be put to great use in the following [[Defense]] combo: ''MF-H Death Aquario BD145RDF''. Death’s low Recoil in tandem with the sturdy weight of BD145 and the exceptional grip of RDF form a remarkably resilient [[Defense]] customization with the ability to withstand ferocious attacks from the best Attack type customizations of its time.

==Track: 125 [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
*'''Weight:''' 1.0 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 gimmicked tracks of the same height, such as T125 and D125.

==Bottom: Rubber Defense Flat [[Image:BeywikiBannerGreat.jpg]]==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|1.1 grams
|Full Width:
|15.89 mm
|Tip Width:
|14.81 mm
|Full Height:
|10.20 mm
|Tip Height:
|8.49 mm
|Tip Angle:
|80°
|Tip Angle with encasing:
|30°
|}

RDF is an odd combination of shapes to hypothetically form a tip with both Defense and Attack abilities. This Bottom consists of a very wide plastic encasing which holds a rubber tip with a large, flat surface and a small protuberance in the middle which ends in another flat point. The rubber, which constitutes the actual tip, comes very flush with the plastic structure that contains it. In actual performance, it is similar to CS in the sense that it can have an aggressive pattern and a Defensive pattern.

The release of RDF essentially made RS irrelevant, since it is just as effective, if not more, but also because of certain key differences. First, its superior height and better balance allows RDF to be used with the best defensive Track available at the time, BD145, without being hindered by floor scraping. Secondly, RDF has much more Stamina than RS, which was always an obstacle to the latter.

When shot in a standard manner, it is stationary, much like the S tip. When weak launched, it is similar to a worn RS' movement patterns which is usually a light circling around the center of the stadium. When banked, the outer plastic part of RDF comes into contact with the stadium causing instability and erratic behavior, much like an aggressive CS, but with more grip as it has a much larger surface area of flat rubber and plastic. When contact is made with the opposing Beyblade, RDF may tilt and fall onto its outer ring and begin an aggressive movement again, before regaining balance relatively quickly. Stamina-wise, it is a tad inferior to CS and should therefore not be used for Stamina purposes.

Wearing does occur with RDF, like any other rubber-based tip, and it is recommended you buy a mint one for optimum Defensive performance.

===Use in Defense/Balance Customization===
RDF can be utilized in the Defense/Balance customization ''MSF-H Wyvang Dragooon BD145RDF''. RDF's grip, together with the heavy weight of BD145 negates Wyvang's recoil, and provides Dragooon the balance and precession it needs to outspin opponents in the opposite direction. The result is an incredibly powerful Defense customization which can easily weather down the fiercest of attack types.

==Overall==
[[Death Quetzalcoatl 125RDF]] was a welcomed release in the competitive community. While Quetzalcoatl and 125 are not overly useful, Death brought a potent alternative to an otherwise Basalt-dominated Metagame, and RDF offered a great Bottom for pure Defensive customs. Duo is generally better than Death for both Stamina and Defense, however it's considerably harder to aquire in comparison, and RDF is a staple. '''Every Blader should own at least one of this Beyblade.'''

| item number = BB-105
| beyblade system = [[Metal Fight Beyblade]]
| beyblade type = [[Attack]]
}}

__TOC__

==Face: Pegasis III==
The Face depicts Pegasus, one of the 88 constellations in space. The Pegasis III version has horizontal lines breaking through the "P" and "S" on either side of the Pegasus head, and is generally in a lighter tone.

==4D Clear Wheel: Pegasis III [[Image:BeywikiBannerOK.jpg]]==
*'''Weight:''' 3.14 grams
The Pegasis III Clear Wheel's original release is blue. It has two crescent-shaped edges which have wing designs on them. It also has "iron dust" particles that slightly shine inside of it for extra weight, although the effect is negligible since its weight remains average. It was, however, supposed to be a new feature of the 4D System.

==4D Metal Wheel: Big Bang [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
*'''Weight:''' 41.83 grams
Big Bang is a unique Metal Wheel. It has three "wings", each etched with the intricate design of feathers. It is separated into three parts, the PC Frame, the Metal Frame, and the Core.
====PC Frame====
*'''Weight:''' 2.50 grams
The PC Frame is the plastic and top part of Big Bang. It has three sets of two square holes underneath it that connect with the Metal Frame. When rotated, the cubes on the Metal Frame that the holes connect to are inserted in a different hole, changing the mode of the PC Frame. It is dyed red and is made of polycarbonate, but it is generally too far away and too incrusted inside the Metal Wheel to really come into contact with an opposing Beyblade and absorb the shock as it should.

====Metal Frame====
*'''Weight:''' 25.48 grams
The Metal Frame is the main and middle part of Big Bang. It has three cubes on the top that connect to holes in the PC Frame. It also has three sets of two holes on the underside that allow a mode change with the Core's own cubes. As its name suggests, it is made of metal, and it contains most of the feather details in Big Bang’s design.

====Core====
*'''Weight:''' 13.81 grams
The Core is the bottom part of Big Bang. It connects with the Metal Frame with cubes that get inserted in the Metal Frame’s holes. It is the part that the Track and Clear Wheel attach to. It is also made of metal, and is shaped mostly like lower wings full of small feathers that complement the Metal Frame's design.

By turning the PC Frame and Core, you can make four different modes:

----
* '''Smash Attack Mode'''
The PC Frame blocks the upper part of the hole between the Metal Frame's wings, and the Core is retreated closer to the end of the Metal Frame's feathers, to create a bigger wing.

* '''Upper Attack Mode'''
The slope of the PC Frame aligns with the angle of the Metal Frame's wings, and the Core fits more under the holes between the Metal Frame's wings.

* '''Barrage Mode'''
The slope of the PC Frame aligns with the angle of the Metal Frame's wings, but the Core is retreated closer to the end of the Metal Frame's feathers, to create a bigger wing.

* '''Omni-Directional Attack Mode'''
The PC Frame blocks the upper part of the hole between the Metal Frame's wings, but the Core fits more under the holes between those wings.
----

Barrage Mode and Omni-Directional Attack Mode are largely considered the best modes, although the difference between each mode is almost negligible. Testing has shown it is a good Attack Metal Wheel, and it has use in Defense, to an extent. It has since been severely outclassed by many much better Metal Wheels in Attack and Defense though. Basalt and almost every other 4D Metal Wheel have performed considerably better in all aspects since its release, and with the beginning of Synchrom, it is not recommendable to use Big Bang anymore.

===Use in Attack Customizations===
Big Bang has been proven to have decent Attack power when paired with the TH170 track at 220 height, producing the combo ''MF Big Bang (Barrage Mode) Pegasis III TH170(220 height)RF''.

==Bottom: Final:Drive [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|5.85 gram
|Full Width:
|27.78 mm
|Full Height:
|21.18 mm
|Tip Height at rubber:
|19.65 mm
|}

F:D is a 4D Bottom, a fusion between a Track and a Bottom. It is therefore fairly large, to compensate for this merge of two parts. The main gimmick of this 4D Bottom is the automatic change of tip that activates during battle, where the SF-shaped tip retracts inside the base to allow the very wide rubber-coated, Hole-Flat-like shape to make contact with the stadium floor. This mechanism works because two tabs on the side of F:D pull out from the centrifugal force. When they extend, the SF tip comes out of the hole, and when the centrifugal force decreases because the Beyblade loses spin, the tabs pop back inwards and the SF bottom retreats, leaving an aggressive rubber tip with a hole in it. F:D has only found use in niche Anti-Meta combos, but is otherwise ruined by the automatic gimmick which cannot be stopped, therefore it is competitively useless. The intent of the mechanism is to give one last boost of energy to an Attack type, however at such low velocity, the hits are poor, it gets destabilized, and the added rubber surface only serves to lower the customization’s stamina drastically, which is actually how most Beyblades try to win at the end of a BeyBattle.

===Use in Anti-Meta Customization===
An example of an Anti-Meta custom that F:D can be used in is ''MF-H Gravity Perseus F:D''.

'''''Note:''' Hell Kerbecs BD145DS was released as a starter by [[TAKARA-TOMY]] with the Light Launcher 2, while the [[Sonokong]] starter was released with the Snipe Launcher.''

[[Hell Kerbecs BD145DS]] is the second Beyblade in the Maximum Series. Hell Kerbecs BD145DS's "gimmick" is the "maximum diameter" of its Metal Wheel and Track.

==Name Change==
'''Hell Kerbecs BD145DS''' was released by [[Hasbro]] as Hades Kerbecs BD145DS.

==Face: Kerbecs==
The Face on this Beyblade depicts Cerberus, a former constellation in space and Kerberos, the 3-headed dog of the underworld and also Hades' pet.

==Clear Wheel: Kerbecs [[Image:BeywikiBannerOK.jpg]]==
* '''Weight:''' 3.3 grams
This Clear Wheel was released in a translucent yellow. Like its Metal Wheel, it is split into three parts, each separated by a notch. The pattern repeated around Kerbecs depicts interlocked chains. Kerbecs is one of the heaviest and well-balanced Clear Wheels available, and has great use in [[Defense]] and [[Survival | Stamina]] customizations. Being one of the few three-sided Clear Wheels, Kerbecs is especially useful for three-sided Metal Wheels such as Hell and [[HWS Metal Wheel List#Ray | Ray]].

==Metal Wheel: Hell [[Image:BeywikiBannerOK.jpg]]==
* '''Weight:''' 39.6 grams
Hell was first released in a radiant gold colour. As a part of the Maximum Series, it had the largest diameter of any Metal Wheel ever released. However, Big Bang has since been shown to have an equal diameter.

Hell is split into three different wings which are shaped to represent the Three-Headed Dog, Kerberos, and between each of them is a large gap allowing BD145's protrusions (while in Boost Mode) to point upwards past the bottom of the Metal Wheel. On the side of each wing are four indents which, in addition to the end of each wing which ends in a pointed "head" for [[Smash Attack]], increase Hell's Attack capabilities. Due to its heavy weight, its relatively high recoil is lessened by a significant amount and because of this, as listed above, in combination with BD145 (Boost Mode) it can be used effectively in Stamina customs.

===Use in Attack Customizations===
Hell's three wings and [[Smash Attack]] points provide consistent results against top-tier Defense customizations in the combo ''MF Hell Kerbecs BD145RF/R2F''.

==Track: Boost Disk 145 [[Image:BeywikiBannerGreat.jpg]]==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|8 grams
|Full Width:
|48.3 mm
|Full Height:
|14.50 mm
|Vertical Protrusions Height:
|7.8 mm
|Disk Height:
|4.0 mm
|}

BD145 shares a similar trait with its partner Hell, in that, like Hell is one of the widest Metal Wheels ever released, BD145 is the widest Track ever. This Track is unique both because of its width and also its ability to change modes. Changing modes is similar to how it is done with SW145, however this time, instead of removing the changeable part from the bottom and flipping it, it is removed from the top and then flipped. BD145 has two modes:

----
* '''Normal Mode'''
In Normal Mode the "Boost Disk" sits lower on the Track, which causes most Beyblades to scrape the Beystadium floor easily due to the three downward facing protrusions. However, when using a taller Bottom such as RF, this tendency is lessened somewhat, and the wide diameter of BD145, while it is not able to necessarily provide [[Smash Attack]], it assists in "pushing" the opposing Beyblade out of the Beystadium.

* '''Boost Mode'''
Boost Mode works exclusively in combination with Hell. The three upward facing protrusions on BD145 go past the bottom of the Metal Wheel into the gaps of Hell itself and unlike Normal Mode, there is absolutely no space between the Metal Wheel and Boost Disk. This mode has proven to be incredibly effective in Stamina, Defense, and even Attack customizations.
----

===Use in Attack Customizations===
Somewhat surprisingly, BD145 found use in Attack customizations such as ''MF Lightning L-Drago BD145LRF''. The increased diameter allowed by BD145 makes it easier to strike the opposing Beyblade, and in combination with the high Smash Attack of Lightning L-Drago and the speed of LRF, this combination is deadly.

===Use in Defense Customizations===
BD145 is the heaviest Track available, and that along with the fact that it almost completely nullifies low Attackers makes it one of the best Defense Tracks available. It can be used in the custom ''MF-H Basalt Kerbecs BD145CS/MB''.

===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 Stamina Customization===
BD145 goes well with Scythe and EDS. EDS, being a tall bottom, solves WD's scraping problem with BD145, thus, making it the best Stamina bottom with BD145. It can be used in the combo Scythe Kronos BD145EDS.

==Bottom: Defense Sharp [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|0.73 gram
|Full Width:
|15.83 mm
|Tip Width:
|8.93 mm
|Sharp Tip Width:
|3.80 mm
|Full Height:
|8.86 mm
|Tip Height:
|7.91 mm
|}

DS is essentially a hollowed out Defense bottom with a thinner Sharp tip placed in the middle, leaving a gap in between it and the outer "ring" that is created. This should create centrifugal force but that´s not notable. There is no reason to use this Bottom over the multitude of other options available for both [[Survival | Stamina]] and [[Defense]], such as CS, D, WD, and SD.

==Overall==
'''Hell Kerbecs BD145DS''' is a great [[Survival | Stamina]] customization out of the box. Hell is outclassed and DS is negligible, but BD145 and Kerbecs make up for it by working very well in Stamina and Defence types. '''Every Blader should own at least one of this Beyblade.'''

Earth Aquila was re-named Earth '''Eagle''' by [[Hasbro]].

==Face: Aquila==
The Face on this Beyblade depicts '''Aquila''', one of the 88 constellations in space. In mythology, Aquila is seen to represent an eagle, which is featured on this Beyblade's Face.

==Clear Wheel: Aquila [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
*'''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.

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 made it one of the best, [[Defense]]-oriented Wheel available for competitive play. However, it has since been severely outclassed by the extremely heavy 4D Metal Wheels and Zero-G Chrome Wheels paired in Synchrom, such as [[Duo Uranus 230WD|Duo]], [[Guardian Revizer 160SB|Revizer]] and [[Bandid Genbull F230TB|Genbull]].

===IMPORTANT: Mold Variations===
[[Image:10EarthAquila.JPG|thumb|Earth Metal Wheel (second mold)]]
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]].

===Use in Defense Customization===
Earth is best utilized in the top-tier [[Defense]] customization, ''MF-H Earth Bull/Kerbecs BD145CS''. Earth's low recoil can be put to good use in combination with BD145 which prevents many KO's by top-tier low track attackers and adds a fair amount of weight making it difficult to knock around. CS, being the tallest defense tip currently, is the only suitable choice in combination with a BD145 in normal mode and due to BD145's weight, it makes up for CS' lesser defensive prowess compared to the completely rubber tip, RS. When you add Bull or Kerbecs for extra weight along with MF-H you essentially have a very low recoil, decently heavy defensive beyblade which can withstand attackers from all heights. Nevertheless, even [[Basalt Horogium 145WD|Basalt]] outclasses it due to its sheer weight, rendering Earth completely useless in the metagame.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
Earth also has exceptional [[Survival | Stamina]] capabilities because of its low recoil and good weight distribution. Earth can be utilized in the top-tier Stamina custom, ''Earth Bull AD145WD''. Bull is chosen due to it being one of the heaviest Clear Wheels with with a great distribution of weight.

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]]. However, gimmick-paired Tracks like [[Hell Kerbecs BD145DS|BD145]] have immensely outclassed their original bare variant, on top of several taller gimmick Tracks surpassing 145 as well against heavy, mid-height Attackers. Even in Stamina battles, 145 does not offer enough balance: Tracks like [[Gravity Perseus AD145WD|AD145]] and [[Samurai Ifraid W145CF|W145]] provide a good center of gravity, and aid with a slight downforce to maintain stability.

Wide Defense, as its name implies is one of the widest of the “Defense” series of Bottoms (D, SD, WD, PD, EWD). This brings numerous advantages, but also some disadvantages when compared to the other “Defense” Bottoms, specifically D. The advantages include its ability for abnormally long precession times due to its massive width that reaches the edge of the Bottom's perimeter. This allows it to wobble at a significantly larger angle for a longer period of time than D, and at a much lower spin rate. However, depending on the position of the Beyblade using WD and the spin rate of the opponent, this can be disadvantageous because of how easy it becomes to knock over the precessing WD custom. 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. Nevertheless, this more often an advantage than it is a disadvantage.

Newer parts such as CS, EDS and B:D have overshadowed WD to some degree: CS and EDS due to their ability to be paired with the popular BD145 Track without scraping, and B:D because of its height and even longer precession times, but WD is still one of the best pure Stamina Bottoms available. However, when selecting high Tracks such as TH170 and 230, WD's tendency to wobble at larger angles should be kept in mind, as its extreme precession can often become problematic.

Although the name suggests Defensive characteristics, WD does not possess any inherent defensive qualities. However, its proficiency can be increased significantly when facing left-spin Attackers through the utilization of the [[Weak Shooting]] technique.

===Use in Stamina customization===
WD is arguably the best of the “Defense” series of Bottoms, and its effectiveness can be utilized in the custom Phantom Bull AD145WD.

==Overall==
[[Earth Aquila 145WD]] uncustomized is a quite strong [[Survival | Stamina]] type by itself, and, taken separately, Earth used to be top-tier in [[Defense]], and 145 serves no purpose anymore due to its lack of gimmick. Even if WD remains top-tier, it has been released in many subsequent Beyblades and Sets. There is little or no reason to buy this Beyblade, aside from collection purposes.'''

__TOC__

==Face: Bull==
The face on this Beyblade depicts a '''Bull''', which is represented by Taurus in the Zodiac symbols. Its coloring is slightly different from its Metal counterpart.

==Clear Wheel: Bull [[Image:BeywikiBannerGreat.jpg]]==
*'''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 one of the heaviest Clear Wheels with excellent weight distribution. This makes it one of the best choices for [[Metal Fight Beyblade#Hybrid Wheel System | HWS]] based [[Defense]] and [[Survival|Stamina]] customizations.

==Metal Wheel: Dark [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
*'''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. There is thus no reason to use Dark in any competitive situation whatsoever.

==Track: Horn 145 [[Image:BeywikiBannerOK.jpg]]==
*'''Weight:''' 4 grams
*'''Height:''' 14.5 millimeters
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 smash it produces in the first few seconds of a battle, but at the same time, it's recoil does work against you in some battles, causing a self-KO or if not, a severe loss of [[Survival | Stamina]].

===IMPORTANT: Mold Variations===
[[Image:12DarkBull.JPG|thumb|H145 Track (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 third heaviest Track, [[Metal Fight Beyblade - Track List#GB145: Gravity Bowl 145|GB145]]. The increased weight not only reduces breakages, but it also marginally helps reduce the recoil it produces.

===Use in Smash Attack Customization===
H145's recoil can be utilized best in combination with the extremely proficient [[Smash Attack]] Wheel [[Lightning LDrago 100HF | Lightning]], in the custom, ''MF Lightning LDrago H145RF''. Both MF and RF help reduce the amount of recoil produced by this customization, and RF of course increases its movement speed.

==Bottom: Semi-Defense [[Image:BeywikiBannerGreat.jpg]]==
[[Image:09EarthAquila.JPG|thumb|Tip Comparison: SD, D, and WD]]
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|0.5 gram
|Full Width:
|15.65 mm
|Tip Width:
|7.0 mm
|Full Height:
|8.74 mm
|Tip Height:
|7.75 mm
|Tip Angle:
|30°
|}

SD is the reason to buy this Beyblade. 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, as is evidenced by the following tests:

----
'''Virgo DF145D vs. Virgo DF145SD'''
*Balance Stadium
*Alternating Shots
*Beylauncher
*20 Battles

'''Results:'''
*''Virgo DF145SD:'' 18 wins
*''Virgo DF145D:'' 2 wins
*''SD win percentage:'' 90%
----

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 is 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.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
SD is an excellent stamina bottom, and its effectiveness can be utilized in the custom ''Burn Bull AD145SD''.

==Overall==
[[Dark Bull H145SD]] does have a few noteworthy parts, but really, only one absolutely necessary part; SD. SD is arguably one of the best [[Survival | Stamina]] Bottoms available, so that alone should be reason enough to purchase one. But, there is also H145 which is fun to experiment with, and Bull, one of the heaviest right-spin Clear Wheels, which is also an essential part of almost all current [[Defense]] and [[Survival | Stamina]] customizations. '''Every Blader should own at least one of this Beyblade.'''

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

==Clear Wheel: Wolf [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
*'''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 [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
*'''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]].

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 on par with 145, while [[Gravity Perseus AD145WD#Track: Armor Defense 145 | AD145]] is superior by a small margin when used in Stamina combinations.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
If the aforementioned parts aren't accessible, DF145 can still be put to good use in the custom, ''Scythe Kronos DF145WD''.

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.

__TOC__

==Face: Pisces==
The Face depicts Pisces, the twelfth astrological sign of the Zodiac.

==Clear Wheel: Pisces [[Image:BeywikiBannerOK.jpg]]==
*'''Weight:''' 2.7 grams
Pisces was first released in a translucent midnight blue colour. Pisces depicts two sharks circling clockwise around each other with the head, dorsal fin, and tail of each shark breaking through a series of waves. This Clear Wheel is best combined with Screw, as its shape and slopes allow proper space to enhance Screw's own slopes and it does not get in its way for attacks, maximizing the contact areas.

==Metal Wheel: Thermal [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
*'''Weight:''' 30.5 grams
Thermal consists of two large wings in the shape of sharks with a small gap in between. Thermal is largely based on the Metal System Pisces, and as such, the three notches on each wing of the Wheel are representative of a shark's gills. The wings also have a noticeable slope leading up to the thicker center. However, despite this slope, Thermal generates no observable Upper Attack. In addition, even though it has relatively sharp contact points, they do not protrude far enough outward to provide any significant Smash Attack. Although Thermal’s design is mostly continuous and interrupted by only the two small gaps, but it has only moderate Stamina qualities at best, and is outclassed by multiple Stamina Wheels such as even Earth and Burn.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
Thermal can be used in the Stamina Customization: ''Thermal Bull AD145WD''.

==Track: Tornado 125 [[Image:BeywikiBannerOK.jpg]]==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|1.7 gram
|Full Width:
|24.5 mm
|Minimum Width:
|17 mm
|Full Height:
|12.50 mm
|}

T125 has four upward-facing wing protrusions spaced apart widely. The Track is designed to work in a similar way to DF145, although this effect of downward force it produces is highly negligible. The performance of this Track is similar to D125, and as a height, is generally overshadowed by CH120.

===Use in Attack Customization===
Although CH120 is considerably more versatile than T125, T125 can still be used to a moderate degree of effectiveness in ''MF Gravity Perseus T125R²F'' (Attack Version, Counter Mode). Metal Wheels that were released subsequently to Gravity and that do better in Attack, like VariAres and Blitz, can also fit well with T125 and other 125 Tracks, however the combination of Gravity and T125 is notable because Gravity cannot perform as well at any other height.

==Bottom: Eternal Sharp [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
{| class="wikitable"
|Weight:
|1.0 gram

|}

Eternal Sharp features a free-spinning tip attached to a metal shaft which is held by the Bottom. This 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 Bearing Core, had NSK Shield Bearings which allowed unhindered spin.

Secondly, the tip shape of ES is not conducive to optimum Stamina; the sharp nature of the Bottom means it is easily destabilized. Consequently, 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 a Stamina Bottom.

Pisces was first released in a translucent midnight blue colour. Pisces depicts two sharks circling clockwise around each other with the head, dorsal fin, and tail of each shark breaking through a series of waves. This Clear Wheel is best combined with Screw, as its shape and slopes allow proper space to enhance Screw's own slopes and it does not get in its way for attacks, maximizing the contact areas.

==Metal Wheel: Thermal [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==
*'''Weight:''' 30.5 grams
Thermal consists of two large wings in the shape of sharks with a small gap in between. Thermal is largely based on the Metal System Pisces, and as such, the three notches on each wing of the Wheel are representative of a shark's gills. The wings also have a noticeable slope leading up to the thicker center. However, despite this slope, Thermal generates no observable Upper Attack. In addition, even though it has relatively sharp contact points, they do not protrude far enough outward to provide any significant Smash Attack. Although Thermal’s design is mostly continuous and interrupted by only the two small gaps, but it has only moderate Stamina qualities at best, and is outclassed by multiple Stamina Wheels such as even Earth and Burn.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
Thermal can be used in the Stamina Customization: ''Thermal Bull AD145WD''.

==Track: Tornado 125 [[Image:BeywikiBannerOK.jpg]]==

|Weight:
|1.7 gram
|Full Width:
|24.5 mm
|Minimum Width:
|17 mm
|Full Height:
|12.50 mm
|}

T125 has four upward-facing wing protrusions spaced apart widely. The Track is designed to work in a similar way to DF145, although this effect of downward force it produces is highly negligible. The performance of this Track is similar to D125, and as a height, is generally overshadowed by CH120.

===Use in Attack Customization===
Although CH120 is considerably more versatile than T125, T125 can still be used to a moderate degree of effectiveness in ''MF Gravity Perseus T125R²F'' (Attack Version, Counter Mode). Metal Wheels that were released subsequently to Gravity and that do better in Attack, like VariAres and Blitz, can also fit well with T125 and other 125 Tracks, however the combination of Gravity and T125 is notable because Gravity cannot perform as well at any other height.

==Bottom: Eternal Sharp [[Image:BeywikiBannerBad.jpg]]==

|Tip Angle:

Eternal Sharp features a free-spinning tip attached to a metal shaft which is held by the Bottom. This 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 Bearing Core, had NSK Shield Bearings which allowed unhindered spin.

Secondly, the tip shape of ES is not conducive to optimum Stamina; the sharp nature of the Bottom means it is easily destabilized. Consequently, 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 a Stamina Bottom.

==Overall==
Thermal Pisces T125ES lacks any worthwhile parts, save for Pisces due to its harmony with [[Flash Sagittario 230WD|Flash]] and Screw. '''There is little reason to own this Beyblade outside of collection purposes.'''
