War Monkey is a double layered attack ring with the second layer being free-spinning [[Special Parts#Sub_Ring|Sub Ring]]. It is primary used is for [[defense]] type combinations because it has the shape of a circle which is good . War Monkey's [[Special Parts#Sub_Ring|Sub Ring]] is parallel in shape to the AR, but has a different use. Since it spins freely, it can act as shock absorbers, in combination with the AR, allowing it to take harder blows while preventing KO.

War Monkey contains two parts: a main AR and the Sub-AR. The main AR is characterized by four small projections. These projections do not protrude much and posses little offensive power, but allow for low recoil. The main strength of this AR comes from its harmony with the Sub-AR which is identical in shape to the Main AR. This means that the shape of War Monkey is that of a full circle enhancing many of its current defense attributes.

Since it is free-spinning the Sub-AR acts as a shock absorber and allows the beyblade to take harder hits whilst reducing recoil and KO’s, making it is a very good choice for [[Defense]] customizations.

Attack Ring (AR): War Monkey

  • Weight: 6 grams

War Monkey contains two parts: a main AR and the Sub-AR. The main AR is characterized by four small projections. These projections do not protrude much and posses little offensive power, but allow for low recoil. The main strength of this AR comes from its harmony with the Sub-AR which is identical in shape to the Main AR. This means that the shape of War Monkey is that of a full circle enhancing many of its current defense attributes.

Since it is free-spinning the Sub-AR acts as a shock absorber and allows the beyblade to take harder hits whilst reducing recoil and KO’s, making it is a very good choice for Defense customizations. The circular shape and free spinning attributes also allow War Monkey to have some spin stealing ability giving it some use in Survival customizations.

Whilst a powerful AR; it is important to note that it falls short in many areas when directly compared to the top contender in this category: War Lion (Galeon).
