:: Omega Discussion ::
Before freaking out and posting "READ BAN LITS OMEGAA IS 4D BAY ITS BANND", I made this thread because I think it's potentially unnamable, and the ban list states the same thing. Its pretty heavy compared to some attack wheels in the format but its not as great as you'd expect, albeit still pretty good.
Here are the modes just in case you don't know them straight from Beywiki:
Beywiki Wrote:Assault Mode:
In Assault Mode, the Frame is positioned as to cover the gap between the talon and the scale protrusions.
Barrage Mode:
In Barrage Mode, the Frame completely covers the scale protrusions.
Clear wheels to test with- Unicorno
- Uranus
- Horogium (possibly)
- Kerbecs (just see if you get good results, I didn't.)
If you find a better clear wheel, by all means test the heck out of it!
I will state what mode I am testing in with the tests.
Tests
Tests all in Barrage Mode because it covers the "scales". It's shaped like Galaxy in assault mode and isn't near as good.
MF-H Omega Uranus 90R2F vs. MF-H Scythe Aquario GB145RSF
Omega Uranus: 8 wins (All KO)
Scythe Aquario: 12 wins (6 KO, 6 OS)
Omega Uranus win rate: 40%
I'm definitely up for banning Scythe after this, and other tests with that combo, haha.
MF-H Omega Uranus 90R2F vs. MF-H Earth Aquario R145CS
Omega Uranus: 10 wins (All KO)
Earth Aquario: 10 wins (1 KO, 9 OS)
Omega Uranus win rate: 50%
I figured low height would be its best because the metal frame protrudes so far up, but lets move on to a little higher height with CH120 and see how it does.
MF-H Omega Uranus CH120R2F vs. MF-H Scythe Aquario GB145RSF
Omega Uranus: 7 wins (All KO)
Scythe Aquario: 13 wins (3 KO, 10 OS)
Omega Uranus win rate: 35%
Scythe, get out.
MF-H Omega Uranus CH120R2F vs. MF-H Earth Aquario R145CS
Omega Uranus: 13 wins (All KO)
Earth Aquario: 7 wins (All OS)
Omega Uranus win rate: 65%
Well, it does surprisingly well on CH120! Awesome! It's not to over powering, seeing as Gravity can get higher win rates as so...
MF-H Gravity Perseus D125R2F (Left spin) vs. MF-H Earth Aquario R145CS
Gravity Perseus: 14 wins (All KO)
Earth Aquario: 6 wins (1 KO, 5 OS)
Gravity Perseus win rate: 70%
MF-H Omega Uranus 90R2F vs. MF-H Bakushin Leone 90RSF
Omega Uranus: 10 wins (All KO)
Bakushin Leone: 10 wins (All OS)
Omega Uranus win rate: 50%
Judging from these tests, I say take Omega off the ban list. Gravity's likelihood of being banned is very high at the moment so Omega could come on and do some damage as well, just not 'ban-list-material-damage'. Having a 4D metal wheel in limited format would e kind of weird, but keeping a well balanced format is the goal, and seeing as Omega is overpowering according to these tests, it'd be a great part for limited.
Post what other tests I should do!
