His skill level shows that he knows what he is talking about, and that means we should deeply consider what he has to say.

Imagine having such a high-and-mighty opinion of yourself that even the word of the #1 blader on the WBO means nothing to you.
B3 and Hasbro Bearing were once a significant issue, but I think it’s use has declined due to the release of Judgment Joker and Zwei Longinus, both of which can take it out with relative ease. B3 is still certainly good, but not really the best anymore. Lord Spriggan can now do what B3 did best, not be burst, with the addition of about 8-10 grams of weight. Hasbro and Takara products are so different now, a Hasbro Format revitalization is probably a good idea for the many Hasbro users out there, so they can have the same amount of fun as Takara players, without worrying that their bey will be one shot by a Judgment or Zwei combo.

Wow, you sure know how to be humble.
Don't put anyone, ANYONE, on a pedestal. They will disappoint you. Their win records don't matter. Sometimes people who are experienced have skewed views and goals. And sometimes people who focus on parts of a specific brand have their own goals and biases.
Just because a part is strong and has been for several release generations doesn't mean it's too strong. You cannot spam B3 on Bearing in a standard tournament and make it to finals. Perhaps a year ago, but not now.

And even back then, with all the hS spam, it kinda countered the B3 spam.

Why do you hate B3 so much? It's use is practically becoming outdated here. And you're no longer arguing against B3, you're just arguing with other people now over how bumble they are?

Did anyone test Hercules H4 against Balkesh? I am pretty sure he beats him.

I you are testing stock combos then Hercules H4 will be more likely to win bc Eternal will win Against Atomic in opposite spin. But H4 has no chance of Winning Against Balkesh if it was on Bearing
In my opinion, Dm-S is good enough on 00W that almost anything right spin with this setup will OS B3 on 00W Br or any other LAD heavy combo.
EDIT: Just tested this matchup. Lots of ties. Slight edge goes to gK3 00W Dm-S tho.

Not to mention, if you get the mode right on Dm-S, you can get it to not fall over on 00E, so you don't have the downside of the W or L frame. Plus you can't go wrong with a tall staller. But yeah, I made this combo for limited and it is super safe and can beat pretty much anything in limited. It's N3.00E.Dm-s

bladekid, this morning, I actually found a better mode for Dm-S, which can OS B3 00W Br somewhat consistently; I'll test this matchup more fully after school.

In some circumstances, you can even get 00E.Dm-s to beat and tie with 00W.Br
Can someone explain to me how Dm-S is so good? I can't find any articles telling me how it works.

It has quite a lot of LAD, enough to counter bearing, or at least tie (this is in lowest height balanced mode). I use Hercules (probably will replace the layer with Turbo Spryzen's later) 0E Dm-S, and it can tie or beat Balkesh 0L Br. Also, the mode change to attack mode is useful to Tornado Stall any opponent.
My pP00CXt+ oS my friend’s B3, literally everytime we have battled
(PS - We have just battles around 12-15 times)
Though there were a couple of draws

I can burst B3 with my left spin Lord combo. I did it in a local tournament that I held. It slowly but surely removed B3 off of Bearing..
