Is the flame claw gimmick good or does it get in the way?
[Answered] C145 gimmick
It's effect is mostly negligible iirc
What DaJetSnake said. It's just flappy plastic that doesn't help with much. Not even LAD. Or OWD. Just anime logic all the way...
In zero g stadiums, it causes the beyblade to lose stamina if tilted.
it does nothing particularly beneficial besides adding weight, and even then the weight it adds is so marginal it's made pointless by the complete nullification of LAD the combo might have had, especially in Zero-G stadiums.
