Screw and Vulcan both provided very decent attack in LTAC's, but were obviously outclassed once Flame Byxis (the beginning of the end, lol) was released, along with other new releases like Kerbecs, Horogium, Lynx, etc.

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere."

What were Screw and Vulcan good for?

As you probably know already...? Vulcan was a top tier attack wheel in it's day.

Screw is an unfortunate move for TT. If it had been released earlier it would have been an interesting addition to the attack lineup, but at the time it was released it was almost already irrelevant...

Screw is still pretty good as Screw Pisces 90RF/MF(I like MF on this combo, it reminds me of SG Metal Flat 2). It has some nice attack power, but no one really paid attention to it so it never got the credit it deserved. Nano used one in the Oregon Beydays 2 tournament up until the finals IIRC.

Hey guys i just recently got VariAres and i've been struggling using VariAres CH120RF/R2F specifically in Left spin, is there a specific thing i should be doing besides Banking in order to get the results i'm looking for... or do i just need to practice and get more accustomed to the Bey?

Probably practice, and use Sliding Shoot along with Banking.

It could also be that your R2F is mint, in which case you have to wear it down enough to get it in prime condition.

You could also launch a little weaker to get more control.

is 230 still good without an MF?

yes 230 is good without mf, although using mf increases weight, so it is better to use mf

signature too awesome for wbo

What were Screw and Vulcan good for?

Screw was a potential candidate for great Upper Smash, but it never panned out due to the weight of the combos available by the time it came out. It can still do some neat tricks, but it's overall just not worth it anymore. The design also didn't lend well to more prominent methods of attack, either, so it suffered greatly from height complications.

Vulcan was the premier Smash Attack wheel of its time, but due to its light weight and overall design, it couldn't sufficiently KO 230 tracks, and couldn't consistently remove RS Defense combos from the Stadium.

Others had answered you, I just felt the need to go into more detail.

Kaiba Hiwatari, you should have redirected him instead of answering.

i must ask, is it legal for tournaments to use lubracant on the bearings in B:D? me and my bro are thinking of using some WD-40 on it. i don't see anything directly relating to that situation in the rules.

There's hasn't been a notable difference, AFAIK.

No, that is not permitted, on any tip.

The reference point is in the Universal Rules. While it directly addresses not lubricating, tuning or seasoning plastic and HMS beys, you should infer that the same thing applies to MFB beys as well.

And surely at another place in the rules it stipulates not to apply any foreign substance to any part ...

In a recent battle my face bolt for my Sagittario broke and i lost the battle, i was wondering how i could fix it?

You can't, sadly, you'll need to use another facebolt/buy a new one.

If you dislike the rules being enforced, leave.

I currently have things that force me to remain but I may well decide to leave in the future. Any forum that punishes general helpfulness is not one I want to be a part of and the rules of "staying on topic" have never agreed with me anyway.

Haha, yes. As a matter of fact the specific rules on bearings made it into the Standard rules as well... Where is my head this morning? :p

Is the #BB-41 stadium good?
