Hi guys!
I decided while a lot of people have not received their Beyblade X products yet, why not do some testings alone. It also gave me an idea of creating my own blog. There was no dedicated Beyblade X thread so I decided to post it here.
This study examined the differences between Needle and Ball bit for Beyblade X. Three different beyblades Wizard Arrow, Knight Shield and Hellscythe were all tested with 4-60, 3-80 and 4-80 ratchet against Dransword 3-60F. I predicted that while Needle is stated as a defense bit in its stock combo with the defensive Knight Shield and Ball bit is stated as a Stamina bit in its stock combo of Wizard Arrow, Needle would be heavily outperformed against attack. As our results indicate, Needle consistently performed poorly against Attack type beyblade while Ball fared significantly better. When comparing the results of ratchets with different heights (such as 4-60 Needle against 4-60 Ball) the results did not significantly differ against the attack type beyblade. Needle consistently performed worse against Ball regardless of ratchet height or shape suggesting that performance in the testing was more dependent on the bit rather than ratchet being a factor.
Needle
Wizard arrow 4-60 won 3/10 times, 4-80 won 3/10 times, 3-80 won 5/10 times
Knight Shield 4-60 won 3/10, 4-80 won 5/10 times, 3-80 won 6/10 times
Hellscythe 4-60 won 4/10, 4-80 won 5/10 times, 3-80 won 2/10 times
Avg win ratio 36/90 (40%)
Ball
Wizard Arrow 4-60 won 6/10, 4-80 won 6/10, 3-80 won 7/10
Knight Shield 4-60 won 7/10, 4-80 won 4/10, 3-80 won 7/10
Hellscythe 4-60 won 6/10, 4-80 won 5/10, 3-80 won 7/10
Avg win ratio 55/90 (61.11%)
I have a full detailed breakdown as well, including the methodology in case anyone wants to read it. The link to my blog post is:

Have a great day and Thank you for giving me your time :)
