First post!
Forgive me if this is the wrong area of the forum for it. Saw other testing threads here so assumed it to be right!
Just wanted to share some fun results I got from testing a meme/gimmick build I've been playing with.
Just to preface this: I'm a reasonably new player so my launch technique/strength isn't amazing.
Test results are from solo launches, alternating between rounds, using string launcher and Hasbro arena.
I love the idea of Bound Spike as a bit gimmick, absorbing the shock from big hits, and was sure I had read somewhere that there was a Blade designed with a similar concept.
Lo and behold it was Weiss Tiger, a blade that... to be generous, it not well looked upon. (*Yes, also Knight Shield, but meh!)
"Mastery Of Balance: Weiss Tiger is described as using the holes on the blade for shock absorption, similar to Knight Shield. The edges of the blade hang low to dampen stamina like Viper Tail, and the curve on the blade has an Upper Attack like Shark Edge."
So I had the idea to combine these two parts, a blade and bit, both designed to absorb shock.
It's an odd bey to launch, still figuring out the best technique. You have to be really careful with the BS bit since if you tilt too far it scrapes like crazy, however I've found best results with stall/drop launches or just flat launch.
It takes big hits very well, seemingly draining a ton of stamina from the opponents with each hit it takes (from what I could see), even recovering from wobbles after taking a decent smack which I found very strange!
Of course, it definitely lacks stamina, as you'd expect, pretty sure it'd go 0-10 against Wizard Rod, but against Attack types it's performed shockingly well, rarely winning on points but almost always tieing which, for a gimmick build, is pretty impressive! So maybe someone can draw more out of this combo than myself!
Still unsure what ratchet I like best, from what I've tested so far 1-60 and 5-60 seem good, but been meaning to test out others like 7-60 etc.
But regardless,
Here are my test results! Hope someone gets a chuckle out of it at the very least!

Like I said, it certainly isn't winning points wise, but definitely a lot of draws, which is wild to me!
There we have it, all the testing I've done for now, might bring it back out for a few more in the future (Feel free to suggest combo's to test against).
Thanks for reading!
