Th!nk: GFC (UV) name correction, we must take another look at this article though because I really think it makes the beyblade out as much better than it really is.

-Metal Flat Core was intended to be an upgrade to [[Gaia Dragoon MS]]'s 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]].

-'''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.

-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 by 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 variation 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.
