Taking Sides: Whose side are you on anyways?

Hello community, I am back with some tests to see the performance of different blades with ratchets. I decided to do this test to see which ratchet and blade combo is ideal. To test, I used Needle bit because that sharp tip is the most sensitive to any weight balance differences. Please keep in mind, this test is NOT to see which beyblade combination is good. This is merely to see which ratchet has a better weight balance with what blade.  Methodology: Each blade was spun 3 times on Needle bit. Since this test was to test the weight balance of the blade and ratchet combo, I decided to go with Needle since its sharp tip makes it very sensitive to weight imbalance. Due to time constraints I only decided to spin each combo 3 times and took the average. However to make the results more accurate, a large sample size of 10 spins would be better. Since Dran Dagger, Hells Chain, Rhino Horn, and 5-80 were not available they were not included in this test. Results: Hells Scythe 3-60: Average 1:4

LeonClaw (blade review)

 Hello community, I am back with some testing on LeonClaw, the blade. Ever since the release of LeonClaw, the community has been very hyped to see a new beyblade that isn't defensive/stamina oriented. Our wishes were fulfilled when LeonClaw was released as a Balance type. While the beyblade has been out for a while now, I have only got the time recently to test it due to midterms.  LeonClaw presents an interesting dilemma for the Beyblade X analysts. While previous generations relied on aggressive blade (attack ring) design and aggressive movement drivers (rubber drivers) in conjunction with weight, Beyblade X seems to have relied very heavily on its rail system to utilize kinetic energy to KO opponents. While testing LeonClaw, unfortunately it has also fallen into the trap of being too dependent on its rail gimmick.  Abstract:  This study examined the performance of LeonClaw blade in different configurations. I used LeonClaw 5-60 on Needle, High Needle, Ball, Tapered, Flat, Low Fl
