Rock Aquario DF145SD Tests

Hello there. I am new to this testing stuff, but don't go easy on me because of that. Today, I was playing around with parts and made a customization I took a liking to. So I decided to test it against what is (or was last time I checked) a top-tier combination: Earth Bull DF145WD. My own custom was of course (as the topic suggests), Rock Aquario DF145SD.

I conducted a somewhat thorough testing of Rock Aquario. The testing consisted of 20 rounds. For the first and eleventh rounds, the beyblades were launched using the Hasbro Duotron Launcher with a ripcord that has 64 teeth. Every other round the beys were launched using the standard launcher included with every beyblade with ripcords that each had 45 teeth. Both my blades are Hasbro. I used the Hasbro Pegasus Thunder Whip stadium (and wiped off the shmutz the cheap paint on the bottom leaves behind after each round). The winning bey was launched first in the round following its victory.

Here are the results of my testing:
Rock Aquario won 18 rounds and lost 2 rounds against Earth Bull. All wins were by out spinning the opponent, as neither of them were able to pocket the other (although they tried when one was knocked off balance and the tip caught traction).

My testing may not be thorough enough, as I only tested Rock Aquario against one top-tier combo and the testing was only for 20 battles.
Ideally you should use the same Bottom with the same amount of wearing, as well as an Attack Type Beystadium.
Duotron launcher?
PTW?
Rock BEATTING Earth?

Wut!?

Would you mind elaborating further. I just want to make sure I'm catching your concepts better.

While WD and SD are very similar, perhaps there is still a difference that is giving Rock Aquario the advantage. However, even if you were to use an SD for Rock Aquario and one for Earth Bull as well, one might be worn so that its performance differs from the other SD.

The Attack Type Beystadium is just the most balanced Beystadium available for Metal Fight Beyblade, and therefore the best for testing.

If you want to prove that Rock Aquario shines above Earth Bull, then you have to keep the parts consistant besides the parts being tested. For stamina testing, one would usually use the same track and bottom for both beys.

The second part is self explanatory.

Before this test, none of the parts used had been used over 15 times. So, wear of the parts was minimal, if any.

Metal wheels don't really wear, so the performance stays the same after long usage.

Wow, I wouldn't suggest using the duotron. Maybe next time get someone the same age to shoot with you? I hope that is a good suggestion. But i'm probably wrong. That 64 teeth ripcord must of got the job done. The ideal problem here is even though there are 64 teeth, the second beyblade is always weaker. My suggestion might work better but you guys might have different strength. I know this is weird but maybe an RPM laser detector would really help this would easily tell you how hard or how weak to shot a beyblade depending on how you shot the first one. Oh well, good testing.

BeybladeStation: The Duotron is of course, a crappy piece of equipment. I only used it the first and eleventh rounds, however. I used it the first round so both beys would be launched at the same time. I used it the eleventh round out of boredom. Both times Earth Bull was the first bey on the Duutron. It was on the spinner closest to you if you were holding the launcher.
i will test this combo soon, but with matching parts (except for the metal wheel of course)
It wasn't that I was testing to see if Rock was better than Earth. I was more or less just testing out my combination. I was extremely bored at the time I did this, so I thought it would be an interesting topic for my first post.

Here, i'll do some tests and post my results here.
Rock probably has the best solo spin-time that is for sure, I did not think it would do well in Stamina though.
I probably shouldn't include this here. I have a rather limited collection of beys. If anyone has any ideas for any good combinations I can make, it would be appreciated.

So here's what I have (All Hasbro, sadly):
Lightning L-Drago 100HF
Dark Cancer CH120FS
Storm Pegasus 105RF
Flame Sagittario C145S
Dark Wolf DF145FS
Flame Libra T125ES
Earth Eagle 145WD
Dark Bull H145SD
Evil Gemios DF145FS
Rock Aries ED145B
Storm Capricorn M145Q
Storm Aquario 100HF/S
Rock Orso D125B
Lightning LDrago CH120RF, Rock Bull H145RF, (MF's)
Earth Bull C145B (Get CS/RS/RSF and MF's if you can.)
Earth Bull 100WD (top)
Also, in the future, post this in the Build Me A Combo thread.

Well, I did say that this probably isn't the place for this. Hoping to get by with it since I'm new to the forum and I started this thread. Also, what parts are CS/RS/RSF? Can you provide pics or a link to pics?
Rock got pwned in my attack stadium... 10% against Earth Bull 100WD. 15% vs.Burn Bull 100WD.
Thanks for your input, but again, this wasn't so much a test of Rock as more of me just being bored and testing out the entire combination.
This combo has an awesome spin-time, but gets KO'ed insanely easily. But still, this is one of the few Stamina Combos that can get consistent KO's
.. Rock has the best spin times of all the wheels, yet sucks at stamina, I pointed this out on the first page. Thanks for reiterating it though.
I also pointed out it's sole good point in an actual battle. Was that meant as being sarcastic?
Well, being as this is my first combo I actually tested, I didn't expect the results to be all that great. On a side note, anyone know how long of a wait it is between the Takara-Tomy and Hasbro releases?
