I made edits to make this grammatically correct:


While Dark Knight and LW160 do not provide much use, Dark Knight Dragooon contains two very useful parts, Dragooon and BSF. While it is best as a spin equalizing Chrome Wheel, Dragooon's heavy weight and capability for left rotation make it one of, if not the best, Chrome Wheel in Zero-G. Its amazing versatility and use in all categories of customization also make it a very reliable part in tournaments. BSF is a very good part for resisting Zero-G Attacks in a Zero-G Stadium and for Balance in the BB-10. Therefore, '''this Bey is a must-have for all Bladers, and an excellent addition to any collection.'''

__TOC__


'''Note:''' The spelling "Dragooon" was probably chosen by TAKARA-TOMY to clearly differentiate the Bakuten Shoot Beyblade Dragoon tops and this Zero-G Beyblade.

Dark Knight Dragooon is the first left-spin Beyblade in the Zero-G series.

==Stone Face: Dragooon==
*'''Weight:''' 1.22 grams
With an original release of a blood red Stone Face, the mark on this sticker illustrates the profile view of a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon Dragon], drawn in a European fashion.

==Chrome Wheel: Dragooon==
*'''Weight:''' 30.90 grams
Dragoon is currently the third heaviest Chrome Wheel available, behind Wyvang, Balro, and Girago respectively. It is also currently the only Chrome Wheel capable of left rotation. Dragooon can be matched in Synchrom with Chrome Wheels that spin in the opposite direction, but the combo it is in can only spin left if Dragooon is placed on top of the other Chrome Wheel.

The Chrome Wheel depicts three dragon heads and two wings throughout its circumference. It features several small slopes in its design. Two heads circle almost half of its circumference in a lateral way, while a third head is flat on top, offering relief upwards by its lower jaw and teeth. Two webbed wings also cover the rest of the design, with four claws that appear to be gripping the hole where the orb from the Crystal Wheel gets inserted. The sides of the Dragooon Chrome Wheel are therefore composed of the top of one dragon head, the sides of two other heads, the curved structures of the wings' fingers, and the straight ends of the membrane between them. Overall, Dragooon has four sections, each similar in size and shape.

===When used as the top Chrome Wheel of a Synchrom===
When Synchromed on top of almost any other Chrome Wheel, Dragooon can deliver strong attacks, but its protrusions are small compared to other Chrome Wheels and thus it is outclassed in attack power. However, this Chrome Wheel's capability for left rotation gives it an advantage over other, more powerful right-spin Chrome Wheels because it will not be heavily affected by Zero G Attacks. Its slight slopes can be used to attack opposing Beys and knock them away when used with low tracks, but this has not proven to be a reliable characteristic. Because of its high weight, it can handle recoil very well when Synchromed with rounder, smoother or heavy Chrome Wheels, giving it use in [[Defense]] customs. Dragooon has terrible balance, making it bad for [[Survival | Stamina]], but it's spin-equalization ability gives it use in many useful spin-equalizing Stamina combos. Overall, Dragooon has use in Attack, Defense, or Stamina customizations and is a part of several top-tier customs for MFB and Zero-G, like MSF-H Reviser Dragooon B. This Chrome Wheel also has the ability to resist Sway Attacks from most right-spinning Beys because of it's left-rotation, giving it a large advantage over attackers. Thus, Dragooon is among the most useful top Chrome Wheels in Zero-G.

===When used as the bottom Chrome Wheel of a Synchrom===
When Synchromed on the bottom of a right-spin Bey, Dragooon provides weight and Smash Attack, but it shouldn't be used as an attack combo because its contact points are usually blocked by other Chrome Wheels. Also, its numerous but small protrusions are not usually enough to defeat a defense combo that is heavy or has low recoil. Because of its lack of balance, other, more balanced Chrome Wheels, such as Killerken, are generally used instead of it. However, when on the bottom of a right-spin Synchrom, Dragooon's slopes face downward and can force opponents downward, destabilizing them, but this is not a reliable trait and causes Dragooon to lose Stamina in the process. Thus, Dragooon should not be chosen as a lower Chrome Wheel unless there are not any better options like Killerken, Saramanda, Gryph, or Revizer.

===When Synchromed with Itself===
When Synchromed with itself, Dragooon makes a very heavy Bey, allowing it to handle recoil better. Since it has a similar shape on both sides, its contact points are exposed well and it retains its Smash Attack ability. That being said, it also exposes much more agressive contact points that are present on the back of dragon heads. This allows for stronger Smash Attacks, but much higher recoil as well. While this can sometimes be effective, the recoil often proves too much for Dragooon to handle. Thus, there are better Chrome Wheels to be used with Dragooon, such as Killerken, Gargole, Revizer, and Wyvang, but Dragooon can still be Synchromed with itself tomake a heavy, balanced combo.

==Zero-G Customizations==

===Use in Zero-G Attack Customization===
Dragooon is useful in the niche Zero-G Attack custom Dragooon/Phoenic/Ifraid/Gargole Dragooon SP230/E230/SA165 CF/GCF/GF. Unfortunately, this combo will only be able to sway out left spinning customs most of the time, due the fact that it sways right spin beys in the opposite direction.

===Use in Sway Defense Customization===
Because of its high weight and capability for left rotation, Dragooon can be effectively used to defeat right spinning Beys in the powerful Defense custom MSF/MSF-H Gargole/Killerken/Revizer Dragooon B.

===Use in Stamina/Spin-Equalizer Customization===
Dragooon's heavy weight and its ability to spin left also makes it useful in the customizations MSF/MSF-H Dragooon/Gargole/Killerken/Revizer Dragooon SA165EWD/B.

==BB-10 Customizations==

===Use in Attack/Spin-Equalizer Customization===
In a standard BB-10, Dragooon can be used in the custom MSF/MSF-H Killerken Dragooon DF105LRF.

===Use in Balance Customization===
Dragooon is a part of the top-tier Balance custom MSF/MSF-H Revizer/Wyvang Dragooon BD145RDF.

===Use in Stamina/Spin Equalizer Customization===
MSF/MSF-H Gargole/Killerken/Revizer Dragooon SA165EWD is also very useful in the BB-10 Stadium.

==Crystal Wheel: Dark Knight==
*'''Weight:''' 3.87 grams
Dark Knight is composed mostly of sharp studs on one half of the Crystal Wheel, with the other half depicting a aggressively curved blade. A slight, smooth slope is created by this blade in Dark Knight's design. Dark Knight is clear white in color. Like Dragooon, Dark Knight can be fit on any other Chrome Wheel, even right-spinning ones. It must be placed in Crystal Up Mode, however, to make the customization it is a part of spin left.

When paired with Dragooon and other Chrome Wheels, Dark Knight can provide some Smash Attack, but like all other Crystal Wheels it is rendered useless because of its light weight, compared to Synchromes.

==Track: Left Wing 160==
*'''Weight:''' 2.36 grams
The LW160 Track is in most aspects entirely identical to W145, however the wings face the left, and its height is different. This height difference makes the wings on the track much more susceptible to attacks from a shorter Beyblade, which will usually severely destabilize the Bey using LW160 and can sometimes damage the track. This track's counterpart, 160, albeit not having as much Stamina as LW160 in left spin, does not suffer from the same destabilization problems. The affect produced by the wings in right spin does not prove greater than 160. Thus, because of the fact that the strong affect produced by the wings is neutralized in left spin due to destabilization, this track only provides use when used on a left spinning Bey in battle against a Bey with a taller track.

==Bottom: Blade Semi Flat==
{| class="wikitable"
|<font size="1"><b>Weight:</b></font>
|<font size="1">1.19 gram</font>
|<font size="1"><b>Full Width:</b></font>

|<font size="1">10.89 mm</font>
|<font size="1"><b>Tip Height:</b></font>
|<font size="1">7.48 mm</font>
|}

While its tip is simply a slightly wider Semi Flat, it is mounted on an imposing base with a linear row of 8 blades facing left circling its circumference, as well as 8 ridges below them that circle the tip. The blades are shaped similarly to LW160's wings, however they are less spaced. This tip should not be used on [[Attack]] customs because of its lack of speed and mobility. Though it is possible that the blades help produce a downward force effect, they never make contact with the Stadium. Instead, the lower 8 ridges do, and while they do help the Bey regain balance, the effect they produce is negligible. While its lack of balance makes it a bad choice for a BB-10, in most instances, in a Zero-G Stadium, this tip has proven to be very useful for Defense against Zero G Attacks. When the Zero G Stadium is swaying, it avoids exiting the Stadium and it has the ability to wobble for extended periods of time and sometimes regain its balance, allowing it to outspin opponents. This makes BSF a very useful bottom for the Zero G Stadium.

Use in Zero-G Customization

BSF finds great use in the Sway Defense custom, MSF-H Revizer Revizer E230 BSF.

Use in BB-10 Customization

BSF also does excellent in the BB-10 Balance custom, MSF-H Gryph Gryph E230 BSF.

==Overall==
While Dark Knight and LW160 do not provide much use, Dark Knight Dragooon does contain two very useful parts, Dragooon and BSF. While it is best as a spin equalizing Chrome Wheel, Dragooon's heavy weight and capability for left rotation make it one of, if not the best, Chrome Wheels in Zero-G. Its amazing versatility and use all categories of customization also make it a very reliable part in tournaments. BSF, with use in the BB-10 and Zero-G, is a very good part for resisting Zero-G Attacks in a Zero-G Stadium and for Balance customizations in the BB-10. Therefore, '''this Bey is a must-have for all Bladers, and an excellent addition to any collection.'''

Hows this? Also, sorry for missing a few responses. When ShinobuXD replied, it made a new page and I he was the only one to reply again.

---

Anyone have any other suggestions? I don't think anyone noticed that I repliedXD.

A few things:

1) You can't really call the Zero G attack one a niche custom. Or even a custom really. There's no section of the "combo" that has one specific part (except for dragooon which isn't really the part that makes the combo) so its more a selection of combos.
2) What's up with the bit in brackets in the BSF section?
3) The combos need a lot more description. All you've done for most of them is state the combo and it's type.

2) What's up with the bit in brackets in the BSF section?
3) Explain why the combos suggested for BSF are good. You've basically just stated the combo.

Apart from that it seems good.

1: Should I take the combo out then? Are there any other combos that need added?
2: The word attack is bracketed so when its on Beywiki, it can link to the attack article.
3: I will do that. I will put the edited one on the OP.

EDIT: Finished. I need some elaboration on the first thing before I change it, though.

---

What I meant is that you need to change the wording since there's no specific combo there. Might be. I'll look tomorrow when I have time. I know how beywiki works man. I meant the large section in brackets to do with font size wiki coding that clearly shouldn't be there.

---

You forgot the third "O" in the word Dragooon; in the first sentence word of the Chrome Wheel section.

Are these what your talking about? The things in bold?

---

Yes that's what I was referring to.

---

I have no idea how those got there, but I removed them. As for the Dragooon combo, the person who orginally made it (It was Dragooon^2 LW160CF) intended for it to be a balance combo, meant to outspin other Beys instead of KO them. I've made according edits to the information on the combo.

---

Ok, this is looking to be nearly finished. Is there any other combos that should be added? Should I mention that Dragooon will be released by Hasbro and will apparently(based on videos) have a red Dark Knight?

---

Nothing is confirmed, so no.

Alright then. Are there any other Dragooon combos that need to be listed? Say, Bahamdia Dragooon?

EDIT: I made an edit to the BSF section. Should I include it?

Here it is:
While its tip is simply a slightly wider Semi Flat, it is mounted on an imposing base with a linear row of 8 blades facing left circling its circumference, as well as 8 ridges below them that circle the tip. The blades are shaped similarly to LW160's wings, however they are less spaced. This tip should not be used on [[Attack]] customs because of its lack of speed and mobility. Though it is possible that the blades help produce a downward force effect, they never make contact with the Stadium. Instead, the lower 8 ridges do, and while they do help the Bey regain balance, the effect they produce is negligible. This tip has proven to be very useful for Defense against Zero G Attacks. Beys using BSF are extremely difficult to sway out of the stadium, and the tip has the ability to wobble for extended periods of time and sometimes regain its balance, allowing it to outspin opponents. When used on a left-spinning Bey, it is even more difficult to sway out of the stadium. It also serves purpose in the BB-10. It can be used in semi-aggressive balance customs as well as wobbling combos. Overall, BSF is a very useful bottom for both the Zero G Stadium and the BB-10.

---

A few quick things I noticed....

I would change it in the beginning to say that Dragooon is the "only" left spin Zero G Chrome Wheel. Saying it is the first suggests there are others.

Separate "to" and "make" in the Synchromed with itself section, and change the title of that section to "When in Synchrom with itself"

In the Zero G Balance customs section opponents is spelled with an "i"

In the Overall section,

While Dark Knight and LW160 do not provide much use, Dark Knight Dragooon does contain two very useful parts, Dragooon and BSF. While it is best as a spin equalizing Chrome Wheel, Dragooon's heavy weight and capability for left rotation make it one of, if not the best, Chrome Wheels in Zero-G. Its amazing versatility and the fact it can be used in all categories of customization make it a very reliable competitive part. Also, BSF is a very good bottom for resisting Zero-G Attacks in a Zero-G Stadium and for Balance customizations in the BB-10. Therefore, '''this Bey is a must-have for all Bladers, and an excellent addition to any collection.'''


I changed that line about BSF because the other sounded a little repetitive.

I made a grammar edit and changed all the uses of "Zero G" to "Zero-G".

I think you might want to explain a little why _______dragoon B:d is both useful as a spin-stealer and sway defense custom, just give like a few performance notes or something.

It's explained how "swaying" works at the "zero g attack" draft

---

I hate Argentinian customs!

Time, I added further description of how Dragooon B wins its battles and I did so with some of the other combos in the draft. If this wasn't necessary, I will remove the added text in there.

---

SO, I am probably going to include the Dark Knight Dragoon measurements that were done as part of the measurements project, but I do not know how to insert this box. Can someone show me the text that needs to be typed in order to have it appear?

You could simply look at the code on any of the Beywiki Beyblade articles.

Ok, I will incorporate them very soon. However, the measurements were never done by another member so they are not quite "foolproof" yet. Should I still include them?
