It's both. The fundamental misunderstanding everyone seems to have is that spin equalizers are in no way whatsoever only left spinning. It's just everyone's "understanding" of how stamina works is very warped. I'm working on a massive project to "correct" this so anyone who wants to offer your assistance to me via PM I would very much appreciate it.

really long rambling statement on spin-equalizing and left-spin :

Spoiler (Click to View)

Spin equalizers can be used in left or right spin... However, I think many people over exaggerate the magnitude at which spin-equalizers, specifically zombies, are used in the current metagame. Whether you want it to be or not, the current metagame is still very primarily right-spin, at least where I am. I've only actually ever seen 6 people use left spin combos at tournaments before, and I've only ever had 3 people use it on me. I don't have much tournament experience, but out of my 42 total matches I've only ever faced left spin 4 times...

That means that at least I only come up against a left-spin opponent 9.5% of the time... that's only about 1 in every 11 matches.

So, yes, by definition, a spin-equalizer/zombie can be either right or left spin, but considering the fact that most people use right-spin for most of their matches, It wouldn't be very effective, unless it had some other great quality besides high LAD (Duo SA165BWD, which has pretty decent stamina on the side, for instance). If the metagame shifts to primarily left spin (which looks like it could happen in the near future, with the dominance of so many Dragooon customs), then right-rotating spin equalizers will be a better choice.

... In my humble opinion.

As for duo scraping, if it's on SA165 it shouldn't matter, since Duo and SA165 have such ridiculously high LAD. I find that really hard to believe, unless SA165 is in attack mode.

Again, I'm not just guessing. I did extensive informal testing on this thing when I first came up with it a few months ago, and I've seen it vs. Duo on SA165.

Finally! Someone understands. You're correct. Beyblades are governed by physics like everything else. Right and Left spin are perfectly equal because Takara designs it's parts that way. Anyway i'm going to start testing this soon so you don't all hate me for bragging or something (i'm not btw).

---

Can some test this against MSF Gryph Gryph E230BSF?
I am going to use L-Drago Destroy on my first tourney.
Im gonna see how far I can get with a stock beyblade

Allright, I did some tests!

After trying out SA165 in normal mode, I found that it lost to just about everything on SA165/B : D...
However, when I switched it to attack mode, which is mostly what I tested it with a few months ago, it actually took some serious stuff down! Thus, I did tests with it in attack mode too.

Some statements on this thing in attack mode:

Spoiler (Click to View)

One thing I'd like to say first... This combo did OS duo a couple times in this test, but only 1 of those was due to scraping (not really "scraping," more of just getting swung around really, really hard. ).
The other times were because is actually got on top of duo (like literally on top, as in force-smashing it.).

However... I seriously do not remember attack mode having this impressive LAD before! I tried it vs. some killerken Genbull combos, and though it was not able to OS Killerken Genbull SA165EWD/W2D/B : D, it was able to tie with Killerken Genbull SA165WD, and actually beat Killerken Genbull SA165BWD via spin-steal. I think it will still be a problem, with the presence of SA165 and B : D combos in the zero-G metagame, but I am really considering taking this thing back out again...

It may have been a fluke this time, though, since it lost to pretty much every SA165 combo I put it up against before this, but maybe, just maybe, it could actually pull off some wins against them. What we really need to determine that are tournament results, though.

ATTACK MODE tests:

Spoiler (Click to View)

Reviser Dragooon SA165GF (attack mode) vs. Duo Cancer SA165EWD (normal mode)
Duo launched first on all launches. New EWD.
Cancer: wins, 14/20 (11 OS, 2 OGKO, 1 KO)
Dragooon: wins, 6/20 (5 OS, 1 KO)
Reviser Dragooon SA165GF win rate: 30%

Despite the fact that it actually got a losing win rate, this is very impressive for a left-spin combo vs. and anti-spin-stealer (or right-rotating spin stealer. ). I really think switching to attack mode helps this thing out a LOT.

NORMAL MODE tests:

Spoiler (Click to View)

Reviser Dragooon SA165GF (normal mode) vs. Duo Cancer SA165EWD (normal mode)
Duo launched first on all launches. New EWD.
Cancer: wins, 20/20 (19 OS, 1 Self KO)
Dragooon: wins, 0/20
Reviser Dragooon SA165GF win rate: 0%

This just failed miserably. Sorry dude. I'm not saying that this is necessarily a bad combo, but it just can't OS stuff like this, at least when I try it. I REALLY like this thing in attack mode though!

Sum evaluation:

Spoiler (Click to View)

1) putting this thing in attack mode, like, doubles its LAD.

2) Putting this thing in attack mode gives it better sway, IMO.

3) I think we can all agree that putting this thing in attack mode makes it better, based on the tests I just did.

Because it was in reverse .. Swaying is reasonably harder if the opposing Beyblade is in reverse rotation.

And it was on a D-series Bottom. Had it been on an S-series Bottom, the Left-Spin Zero-G/'Sway' Attacker shouldn't have had any trouble destabilizing and then out-spinning it.

I'm gonna try this out with tests. Should I do against Reviser Reviser E230MB? Also, what mode is it in?

---

I am your dog.
Thanks for the sig, Rock kyoya!

Generally, you should test spin equalizers against something like Duo Cancer B/SA165 BWD.

Any spin equalizer will destroy 230 heights(even more so on MB), so testing against that combo would just be stating the obvious.

---

Like B-Daman! Go here!

Well ultimitecrown at Beyblade Revolution used a _____E230MB and it destroyed Duo 3-0. This isn't the BB-10 we're talking about, this is Zero-G. MB is a great bottom for Sway Defense and when SA165 loses speed and starts spin equalizing, E230 absorbs the hits and wins by a few rotations. But I'll do Duo BD

I do not own a Zero G Beystadium but I had an idea. Can anyone do a comparison between Reviser Dragoon SA165 GF and MSF-L Wyvang Dragooon SA165 GF? I'm nearly certain Wyvang should get better results due to more stamina, weight, and smash. MSF-L can increase movement which is critical for Sway KO Combo's. Seriously though, Someone Should Test MSF-L Wyvang Dragooon SA165 GF as a comparison to this. If no one owns a MSF-L, then a MSF-F is fine. If no one owns both, then a Regular Stone Face is fine as well.

Wyvang Dragooon should get more better results in terms of KOes, yes! But Revizer is there to reduce the amount of recoil; its round and ability to spin equalize is more superior in terms of wins rather than Stamina.

Sway KO is quite rare to occur in Left V Right, even with GF due to resistance, and a regular Stone Face, or MSF-F is the best possible choice to enhance its chances of Sway KO, and quicker movement.

I'm actually making this exact combo with a different Chrome Wheel for Dragooon! It's showing great results in the BB-10. At least for me...

Reviser Dragooon SA165GF vs Duo Bull SA165EWD
SA165 Attack Mode on dragoon
Normal on duo
RD wins: 19 wins, 1 Og KO, 18 KO
DB wins: 1 os

Can you test this against Wywang Wywang E230GCF?

Wyvang would probably win, since its an opposite spin matchup.

Thanks for the sig, Rock kyoya!

Wyvang would probably win, since its an opposite spin matchup.

Just because it is opposite spin doesn't automatically give Wyvang the win, E230 would be making the most contact and GF is faster than XF so you really just assume that..

---

When you enter the stadium with me you feel fear for the first time!

MI tournament thread Click or u will die
#1 In MI, #3 in BR:NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPIONSHIPS #22 In World

What I mean is because Wyvang is opposite spin so it wouldnt get swayed out as easily in a same spin matchup, and again, GF has low stamina and depends on spin equalozing, but E230 wouldnt allow that, and drain GFs Stamina.

---

I am your dog.
Thanks for the sig, Rock kyoya!

No.. Opposite spin eats E230 for breakfast. And GF has more stamina than XF especially when it is opposite spin.

Reviser Dragooon SA165GF(attack mode) vs Wyvang Balro E230GCF
Beys launched first alternatively. GF has one or two scars but doesnt affect the speed and the stability.
RD:15 wins (9 ko, 6 os)
WB:5 wins(5 ko)
RD win rate:75 %
2 ties

Some of the most freak ties I've ever seen. RD was racing to a pocket which WB was very very near and it took WB with it into the pocket!!!!
There was this one ko that WB could have acheived. WB smashed RD to a pocket in the opposite side of the stadium and RD smashed into a pocket wall and ricocheted back in!!
LOL

I don't have 2 Wyvangs...... D:
