==Description==
Rubber Accel, abbreviated as RA, is a variant of Accel that features a flat tip made of rubber with no circular indentation in the center and a round dish pointed towards the Ratchet.
Due to the surface area and friction, Rubber Accel will create a highly aggressive and, if launched at an angle, controllable movement pattern. In terms of speed without factoring the Xtreme Line, Rubber Accel is faster than Flat and Rush which would allow for strong attacks with less chances of losing the Banking Pattern in battle than its plastic alternatives.
However, Rubber Accel has three major weaknesses. Firstly, the high friction of the rubber means that Rubber Accel has incredibly low Stamina. Secondly, Accel with wear down with use, decreasing its aggression over time and requiring replacements. Finally and most importantly, Rubber Accel is almost incapable of using the X-Line. The surface area and friction of the rubber tip interferes with an Xtreme Dash, acting as brakes that slows the Rubber Accel combination down and severely draining Stamina. Furthermore, the diameter and speed of Rubber Accel means that even if one tries to attack with Rubber Accel's movement speed alone, contact with the X-Line frequently happens anyway which interrupts Banking Patterns.
==Overall==
While rubber based flat tips were central to many top tier Attack combinations in previous generations, the addition and importance of the Xtreme Dash in Beyblade X leaves Rubber Accel outclassed by plastic Attack Bits such as Rush.
As such, Rubber Accel is recommended for collection purposes only
