-'''Earth Virgo GB145BS''' has many positive attributes. Earth is a wheel with great [[Defense]] and [[Survival | Stamina]], and GB145 is an extremely useful Track for Defense. While BS leaves much to be desired, Earth and GB145 more than make up for it. '''Every Blader should own at least one of this Beyblade'''.
+'''Earth Virgo GB145BS''' is comprised of mostly outclassed parts, and only GB145 holds enough potential in a contemporary metagame. '''Therefore, this Beyblade should only be considered if a preferred alternative cannot be purchased, or for collection purposes.'''

-GB145 is a wide, round track featuring two free moving metal balls. These balls move toward the outside of the Track while spinning, causing additional spin retaining force, similar to [[Draciel Metal Ball Defenser]]'s Metal Ball Base from the [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]]. Weighing in at 4.5 grams, GB145 is currently one of the heaviest Tracks available, and as such is useful in [[Defense]] customizations. At release, it was seen by some as inferior to [[Metal Fight Beyblade - Track List#C145: Claw 145 | C145]] due to the lack of energy-absorbing free spinning wings, making it not as effective as against low attackers such as [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF#Wheel: Quetzalcoatl | Quetzalcoatl]] 90RF, which were popular at the time.

These balls move toward the outside of the Track while spinning, causing additional spin retaining force, similar to [[Draciel Metal Ball Defenser]]'s Metal Ball Base from the [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]]. Weighing in at 4.5 grams due to the metal balls, GB145 is relatively heavy but it cannot hold its own compared to subsequent parts. At release, it was seen by some as inferior to [[Metal Fight Beyblade - Track List#C145: Claw 145 | C145]] due to the lack of energy-absorbing free spinning wings, making it not as effective as against low attackers such as [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF#Wheel: Quetzalcoatl | Quetzalcoatl]] 90RF, which were popular at the time. GB145 used to shine when utilized in Defense customizations against high CH120-based Attackers, such as MF [[Lightning L Drago 100HF | Lightning L Drago]] CH120RF. These types of Attackers do not aim to hit the Track, and thus the free spinning wings of C145 are not necessary, and you instead get a significant increase in the overall weight of the customization. However, it has been outclassed for Defense customizations by [[Metal Fight Beyblade - Track List#BD145: Boost Disk 145|BD145]], [[Thief Phoenic E230GCF|E230]] and [[Metal Fight Beyblade - Track List#TH170: Triple Height 170|TH170]].

-Earth has four thick, textured wings surrounding its perimeter, with each pair facing each other on a slight incline. The space created between the wings is quite small, and the resulting effect is similar to any Wheel that has no spaces: minimal recoil. Though it is on the lighter side of Metal Wheels, its almost unperturbed circular design, and minimal recoil make it one of the best, [[Defense]]-oriented Wheel available for competitive play. However, it has since been severely outclassed by the extremely heavy [[Basalt Horogium 145WD#Metal Wheel: Basalt | Basalt]].

 ===Use in Defense Customization===
-Earth is best utilized in the [[Defense]] customization, ''MF-H Earth Bull GB145RS''. The heavy weight of the Metal Face, and GB145 make it difficult to knock around, and GB145 provides exceptional Defense against low Attackers such as Vulcan Horseus 85R2F. And to top it off, RS is able to withstand powerful Attacks due to the strong grip created by the sharp, rubber tip.
+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 and can be utilized in the Stamina custom ''Earth Bull AD145SD'' or the Stamina custom ''Earth Bull AD145WD''.
