Also, apparently "Fire" is associated with Attack.
I am unsure about that last statement. As you posted in the newest set of updates, Shinobi Salamander is a balance type associated with the element of fire. However I do not think this is relevant to the type of beyblade, but Salamander itself. The mythological being "Salamander" is commonly assosiated with the element of fire, and is even sometimes portrayed as a dragon like creature, (a winged lizard that can breathe fire, but not actualy a dragon) and othertimes as just a large version of a real salamander, but that can breathe fire.
BBG-01 being an attack type and "Hero" bey was clear from the start haha. $5 says Shinobi Salamander is a rival to BBG-01, and later, an ally.
\speculation start
Based on what we know so far, I would think that this new system is based around MFB, but is not MFB. The naming system seems the same, which hints similarities, but I do not think Zero-G will be compatiable with alot MFB. By this I mean, perhaps the concept of a CW, MW, ST and PT will exist, but maybe they will be under new names, be exclusive to Zero G, and have features that seperate them from thier MFB counterparts.
I wonder if ZG will include the dual spin feature HMS, Gravity Perseus, and Variares have? or at the least, something like an improved spin gear system from plastics, because that would be a step up from single spin direction beys...
