Basically, bollocks to both of these. R145 is the only valid "attack" track I have, so I'm not really open for requests, but here's this, at least.

Flash's OS's were from it tornado-stalling. Saramanda Saramanda BD145 has really poor Stamina, yet is very aggressive. Also, the disk on BD145 can slide up some on Saramanda, but I pushed it back down between every battle in case it may have moved up during.


Benchmark:
MF-H Duo Aquario BD145CS v. MF-H Flash Orion S130MF:
DA: 11 (3 KO, 7 OS)

And this is just a thought that came to me when testing first started: Wouldn't it make more sense to just put MF before a Zero-G combo as isn't it common knowledge that Faces are incompatible between the series? We never put MFB before combos for Metal Facebolt in the past, so why do we do so with Metal Stone Faces?

I could always attempt with VariAres, though.

I don't have a Metal Ball. And my last post in the E230 thread and the one above were general questions not necessarily directed towards you, FYI, but since you were the only one to make any sort of a reply, I'll go ahead with both later today anyway.

MSF Saramanda Saramanda E230CS v. MF-H VariAres R145R2F (Right Spin)
SS: 25 (6 KO, 19 OS)
VA: 5 (5 KO, 0 OS)
Ties: 1

SS: 25 (5 KO, 20 OS)
VA: 5 (3 KO, 2 OS)
Ties: 2
Mislaunches: 0

Saramanda win rate: 83%


All of Saramanda's OS' versus VariAres in Left were extremely close! R145R2F would begin to equalize with Saramanda, but would always fall short ever so slightly thanks to all of that rubber (especially R145). So to fix this to some degree, I swapped R145R2F out for ED145MF.

MSF Saramanda Saramanda E230CS v. MF-H VariAres ED145MF (Left Spin)
SS: 14 (5 KO, 9 SO)
VA: 16 (6 KO, 10 SO)
Ties: 17 (LOL)
Mislaunches: 0

Saramanda win rate: 47%

As you can see, VariAres did a lot more equalizing than attacking, but it certainly outperformed its previous setup with the added Stamina. It was able to destabilize as well as KO Saramanda much better with MF as opposed to R2F (KO thanks to destabilization), and ED145 allowed VariAres to keep spinning shortly after toppling over; scoring the win over E230. In Right Spin, this variant sucks big time, so there's no reason to look further into that. But VariAres is definitely easier to control and far more effective with ED145MF in Left than R145R2F in either direction against MSF Saramanda Saramanda E230CS.


Time to begin the higher Track Attack testing... Yea!

@Carly
Magnificent tests.

I can't say I'm surprised about the whole ED145>R145 thing, as you put an MF on (which has quite a bit more stamina) and ED145 isn't stationary, like R145.

You may have just found out a key part for attack in left spin for Zero-G!

How do I still have 17th most posts here...?

Do you mind trying variares with xf in left spin? I feel the added speed destablizes much easier. The wide tip also helps the bey keep balance at low spin which is vital to spin equalize.

I guess the set-up should be Variares ED145XF.

I don't have XF, so would GCF be okay? The extra stamina couldn't hurt it.

R145 = insta-death once VariAres is down. And this was a BB-10 stadium, not a Zero-G stadium, unless I misunderstood your post.

Go for it. The disk around it that prevents it from going fast will probably defeat the purpose of xf however I'm not sure how effective the disk will be in a bb10.

Thanks for the tests

GCF performs exactly the same in a BB-10 as XF does, except when it wobbles at the end, the disk around it keeps it from falling over completely, allowing it to get just barely another rotation-or-so in. It'd probably be pretty beneficial to Dan's combo...

I knew i wasn't the only person to see some use for GCF. When i tested it, it was interesting.

I haven't used CF in BB10 because I havent had one yet. But it has decent stamina. Better then RF. A little bit more then XF. If i can get to some testing tonight ill open a thread for it.

It's like comparing WF to XF, so whatever the results are with those will be the results with these two...

But we're getting off topic from Saramanda, so we should continue this in the Beyblade Random Thoughts thread.


I could see Saramanda getting outclassed within the next few Zero-G releases, especially with Pirates Hazel looking so circular... see wut i did there

Well, CF is faster than GCF but I hypothesize that both will have approximately about the same amount of Stamina in a standard BB-10.
