And the wheel, with the huge spikes and everything that hasn't been tested in a recoil-reducing combo?
Writing that off are we?

Yerp.
I'm positive that this wheel has a 50/50 shot at greatness.
50 for all of the spikes and such for making a great attacker.
The other 50 is for it has TOO much recoil, and fails as a wheel.

well, from the battle's i've seen with it, it's recoil isn't that extreme... quite honestly, it's recoil is just as much as Beat
I'm giving it a 83.322%(recurring, of course) chance of success (being at least good).
You mean %? Being a dual-spin, it should at least have some use, IMO. Plus, it has decent weight too.

How in blasted carp do you get those results th!nk?! XD
And SkyPrince, IIRC Beat has horrible recoil
Also in left spin, I'm sire this will do bloody great!

But seriously guys, we should stop speculating either way until it's actually released, or we (somehow) get a video of it in a decent combo (which is highly unlikely).

he didn't say it was a result... it was an assumption....
and Beat's recoil is horrible if it's on a "non aggressive" tip.... and if i recall, beat is a top tier.....
Ahh, that's what it is. And I haven't checked the tiers in quite some time... I need to do that.
its already released. check on animetoyzone. so early. also im hoping the yellow stuff is stiff during battles. it looks weak imo
It's like a Wing Attacker, Yellow plastic is hard, springs are weak as carp. ® is right about it being released.

That is because they got it from the World Hobby Fair, so at the moment its quantity is limited, and that price reflects this fact. It is not the real release.
well, yeah but wouldn't the quantity increase if we waited... =/ why blow ur money now if u could be patient?
It's not blowing your money if you can get it early on and use everyone's lack of knowledge on Vari Ares to win during a tournament this weekend.
Of course, it risks it not being good, though I personally doubt it'll not be good.
On the bright side, at least I can still use the plastic version of this on the 17th.

Someone has gotten Vari Ares already here ?
or.... you could always counter it with a gravity perseus upper attack combo... from the looks of it (and entirely my opinion) i think it'll lose to upper attack like gravity perseus.

last i checked, gravity has no upper and no good slopes for it...
Deikailo: i agree, if its greek, it is awesome
GP doesn't have upper attack...
Upwards smash maybe, just maybe (read the link in mah sig bru).
Anyway, it 1) has plastic on the bottom, 2) isn't gonna be used in a combo where that matters anyway.

That's where you have the advantage because if you have Variares and no one else knows anything about it outside of its appearance, you will know its weaknesses and strengths while everyone else is just guessing.
