MF-H Libra 85RF
Anti-Attack/Destabilizer? Call it what you with this thing is the Shaft! "One bad... shut your mouth"
Beywiki article on Libra
Back in the day this was the first bey being considered to be banned in competitive play. With the LTD format, it's dominance could once again reign supreme. LTDC have been very affective here, so I wanted to put a little twist on it. I was thinking I loved Basalt and Diablo when they came out and people weren't sure whether to call them defensive or attack beys at times. They could use the attackers aggressive behavior against them as well as lay some power themselves. Combining these two ideas I created MF-H Libra 85RF.
Tests!
MF-H Libra 85RF vs. MF-H Gravity Perseus D125RF right spin
Libra: 15 wins (11 OS, 4 KO)
Gravity right spin: 5 wins ( 0 OS, 5 KO)
Libra Win %: 75%
MF-H Libra 85RF vs. MF-H Gravity Perseus D125RF left spin
Libra: 17 wins (4 OS, 13 KO)
Gravity left spin: 3 wins (0 OS, 3 KO)
Libra win %: 85%
Gravity proved to be no problem in either direction. Libra was able to destabilize it for many of the OS victories. It was a like a boxing match Libra is not a heavy hitter but the constant jabber which after awhile gets the opponent to fall over. Also even when it came to spin stealing the precision of Libra proved most beneficial by OS Gravity with stamina to spare.
MF-H Libra 85RF vs. MSF-H Samurai Wyvang GB145RF
Libra: 15 wins (6 OS, 9 KO)
Wyvang: 5 wins (O OS, 5 KO)
Libra Win %: 75%
This wasn't even as close as the testing shows. Every single KO by Wyvang was a fluke, just skimmed by Libra while it was past the TR or there was one that was nearly a double KO as Wyvang came rolling on its side out of the stadium right after. Libra the constant annoyance getting under Wyvang and making it look like it was on a M145 was able to destroy this bey.
Vs. MF-H Scythe Peg II CH120RF
Libra: 15 wins (10 OS, 5 KO)
Scythe: 5 wins (2 OS, 3 KO)
Libra Win %: 75%

Vs. MF Earth Sag II TH170CS
Libra: 4 wins (0 OS, 4 KO)
Earth: 16 wins (16 OS, 0 KO)

This combo is steller test for yourselves, I'd appreciate more results.
Current tested counter(s):
MF-H Earth ____ GB145RSF: 60% win rate
MF(H) Earth ____TH170CS: 80% win rate
CH120 would probably help here, but I'm still not sure how much. To counter my combo it looks like it's go tall as with most LTAC & LTDC.
