 The good weight distribution and lack of scraping Defense Grip Base 2 presents allow for its use in a rather unorthodox Upper Attack/Spin Stealing combination:

The inside of the Casings is perfectly shaped to hold the tip, allowing its use without its own Base, which is extremely fragile due to the phenomenon known as [http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Gold_Plastic_Syndrome Gold Plastic Syndrome], a factor which combined with its rarity had seen it fade from use.

 By using these casings, the extremely fast tip may be used in far more reliable setups, allowing the creation of a number of extremely powerful [[Smash Attack]] customizations.

-Making great use of the speed and control offered by Ariel 2's tip, Triple Tiger offers solid [[Upper Attack]] in addition to excellent [[Smash Attack]], both of which are useful in a mid-height Attacker such as this. [[Wide Survivor]] is chosen as it allows this combination to move faster than [[Wide Defense]], which is extremely useful to Triple Tiger, though other AR setups may benefit more from the additional weight of the latter.  Lastly, Defense Grip Base 2 is chosen for its light weight and excellent Life After Death, the former maximising the speed of the combination, and the latter being of occasional use against left spin opponents.

 The shaft of SG (Bearing Version 2) is able to fit into all Bearing-Supported casings, however, due to the relatively tall height of the tip, and friction issues in most casings, only two are competitively notable:

 The AR of Wolborg 2 consists of three wolf heads, with sloped projections which are spaced similarly to those of Triple Wing ([[Trygle]]). In right spin, despite the name implying [[Upper Attack]], the slopes of these projections are too short to exhibit this to any useful degree. Thus, Upper Wolf relies more on its [[Smash Attack]], however even here, and despite being shaped similarly to the famed Triple Wing, Upper Wolf is rather ineffective. This is due to the fact its contact points are angled slightly more outward than those of Triple Wing, reducing their ability to land solid hits and greatly increasing the [[Recoil]] they produce. As such, Upper Wolf is outclassed by even second-tier Smash Attack ARs such as [[Burning Kerberous|Triple Attacker]] and [[Dark Series|Dark Wing]].

 SG (Bearing Version 2) is the successor to [[Wolborg|Wolborg's]] SG (Bearing Version). Both use a bearing supported shaft to improve their [[Survival]], however SG (Bearing Version 2) comes with a rubber tip, which produces very different performance to the plastic tip of its predecessor. The unique combination of a rubber tip and bearing support is what makes this part so important in the plastic generation, as due to the relatively light weight of Plastic combinations, the use of a rubber tip for anything other than [[Attack]] is considered suicidal, due to the extremely poor Survival that results. However, by using bearings, a Beyblade can still have excellent Survival as well as the extraordinary [[Defense]] provided by a rubber tip, as the Beyblade spins around the Shaft, while the Shaft itself can remain largely stationary, with the rubber tip anchoring the Beyblade in place. This makes the Shaft of SG (Bearing Version 2) invaluable to Defense customizations.

 A relatively round, externally distributed Base, Defense Grip Base 2 was considered an upgrade to [[Wolborg|Wolborg's]] SG Bearing Base, but fell from use with the release of Customize Grip Base and Customize Bearing Base, due to their ability to hold Support Parts. However, this fall from use was entirely unjustified - while the Customize Bases do provide better Defense, even the best Support Parts cannot match the Life After Death of Defense Grip Base 2, which is second only to the unwieldy [[Dranzer S|Spiral Change Base]] for Life After Death. In addition to this, Defense Grip Base 2's short Shaft section means it can use any compatible SG setup without suffering from scraping issues. These factors, combined with the large number of compatible Shafts and Casings make it a highly competitive, versatile Blade Base, which is an excellent choice for any customization which is compatible with it.

-Wolborg 2 is an extremely useful Beyblade. While its Attack Ring and Weight Disk are lacklustre, its Casings, Shaft, and Base are either useful to or staples of almost every major type of customization. Due to the huge number of uses for its parts, and the fact its tip wears down with use, '''all serious Bladers should own multiple copies of this Beyblade.'''
