Performance Tip/Driver - Loop

Quote:Loop is a Performance Tip released as part of the Burst System. It debuted with the release of the B-74 Starter Kreis Satan 2Glaive Loop on March 18th, 2017.

==Description==
Loop features a ball shaped tip that sits at a standard height with four tabs, akin to Defense, but differs by having two free rotating rollers draping down on either side of the Tip in place of the defensive ring.

The diameter and placement of the four tabs is identical to Defense, thus the tabs act as brakes against Knock-Outs by striking against the stadium floor at the cost of stamina, the diameter of the ball prevents aggressive movement meaning that Loop will mostly stay in the center of the stadium during battle.

In theory the rollers would bring a Beyblade using Loop back upright if knocked off balance with little stamina loss due to the free rotating nature of the wheels, while this action does happen, it only works early in the battle when spin velocity is high. Later in the battle, when spin velocity drops, the lower placement of Loop's rollers compared to Defense's ring causes scraping, instead of preserving spin and aiding Life-After-Death in this state, the low placement instead acts as brakes that stop the rotation quicker, completely nullifying any Life-After-Death.

==Overall==
The shape and placement of the rollers makes Loop lag behind Defense severely in terms of stamina. However the almost identical tip shape and performance early in battle makes Loop a decent alternative to Defense if the latter is not available and/or stamina is deemed less important in the combo. Because of this, Loop is a welcome addition to any blader's collection.

Not too sure about the Overall section, what do you guys think?
Your overall section needs work. From what you wrote in the other parts and in the first part of the overall the part is mediocre and there isn't any reason to own it over good parts like Defence or Revolve yet you say it's a welcome addition to any blader's collection? Also your comment about combos where stamina is deemed less important should probably be taken out since those combos don't really exist (other than attack types but those combos wouldn't be using this driver). Considering it is worse than defence based on what you said about the gimmick I don't think decent alternative is really the wording that should be used either.

==Overall==
The shape and placement of the rollers makes Loop lag behind Defense severely in terms of stamina. While Loop does have an almost identical performance to Defense early in a battle, that does not make up for this weakness. As such, this part is suitable for collection purposes only.

Okay, updated the Overall section.

You were right, had not idea what I was thinking at the time
loop weighs 6.2g.
Article Skeleton is up. Here's the link: http://beyblade.wikia.com/wiki/Performance_Tip_-_Loop
There's Two loops in random boosters, acid Anubis and killer deathscyther
Loop is a fun driver because it is unblance which makes it move around the center
What should be tried with loop is tilting your launcher opposite of a rush launch... be prepared to watch your bey bounce like crazy
 
Yeah, I remember someone doing that repeatedly on one of my beystadiums after asking them to stop. It was doing a lot of damage to the beystadium. It was really irritating and rude of them. Do that damaging trick on your own beystadiums, just not on other people's beystadiums.
