Ah where do I start with GF? Perhaps the funky name? Maybe the fact that it is the widest flat tip made so far, an evolution of the f, wf, xf lineage?
GF(Giga Flat):
Despite being the widest flat, Giga Flat is definitely not the most uncontrollable. Because WF and XF get easily caught in the Tornado Ridge, it is much harder to launch them in a way that they can go through the center, or at least not Tornado Stall.
Giga Flat on the other hand, is just the right size that it will be able to hop the Tornado Ridge when desired and catch the TR when desired. (And boy....it catches the TR well.....almost too well)
This is not what makes Giga Flat so amazing though. (If you wanted a sort of attack/spin equalizer hybrid, Killerken Dragooon DF105LRF would be sufficient.)
Giga Flat is amazing because it almost never falls over against another stamina/defense type. GF is so wide that as it slows down, it always stays upright! (paired with a favorable track of course) Because it doesn't fall over, it has so much more LAD than any other bottom in MFB.
The current standard for outspinning/winning against pure spin-equalizing Dragoon combos is MF-H Duo Cancer B:D or something along those lines. I think my B:D is mold A4, but not sure if that has significance to anyone.
Killerken Dragooon D125GF vs MF-H Duo Cancer B:D
Killerken: 10/10 (All OS)
Duo: 0/10 (N/A)
Killerken Win Rate: 100%
I stopped after 10 rounds because the matches continued to remain the same. Basically Killerken Dragooon would stand upright for the entire battle and would get the last 3-4 rotations. BTW: I didn't count the match where I self-koed, but just be wary of you launch if you do go you use this. It is pretty easy to self-ko especially if you are not paying much attention to your launch.
Killerken Dragooon D125GF vs MF-H Duo Cancer BD145RDF
Killerken: 10/10 (9 OS, 1 KO)
Duo: 0/10 (N/A)
Killerken Win Rate: 100%
Again there was no reason to do 20 rounds since it was pretty redundant. The only odd win was by KO, but again I messed up the TS and got a flower patter somehow and managed to KO it. Probably all luck. I'm not sure if I'd be able to do that again. What was funny here, was actually the fact that GF won, not even touching Duo. It just plain outspun Duo while still circling with no contact whatsoever...
All in all, this thing is really scary, being that it completely trashes everything we know about LAD. (How does a flat tip have so much LAD!!!!!!!!!!Rage!!!!) And it goes so fast, I'm starting to wonder what it does to other attack types......more testing for tomorrow!!!!
On a lighter note, just some fun facts to help you picture GF's performance if you don't already have one:
1. GF has almost double the diameter of RF2. If launched perfectly, GF can move the stadium....a lot. My record was 1' 10'' away from the starting place of the stadium, which is pretty far if you think about it. It reminds me of watching like a turtle race. I got it on video so I should have it up in the future.
3. I actually have some footage of Gravity Perseus BD145MF stalling and I speed it up 250%. That edited footage is a tad bit slower than GF's optimal stall.
