Please explain to more detail why you make the assumption that Virgo is a defense wheel? At least I think that's what you're saying.
This was against me, right? If you beat me by outspin, I don't believe it happened very many times. And for those one or two times that it did happen, consider that I did not launch at full power. Virgo's recoil had gone in your favour a few times, causing it to KO Burn. So, based on my testing of my 3:30 Virgo mold, which was heavily in Burn's favour, I figured that not launching at full power would not hurt my chances of still winning, and the lower RPM would reduce the chance of being KOed.
And, I would say that Virgo can indeed be used as a Defense Wheel. It was never considered one before because Libra dominated that type since before it was released, and after Libra was banned, Earth had already been released. It has never received much attention, and being honest, I haven't tested it in that fashion very much, but I think it would be viable.
What ♥ is trying to say though is that you can create a Beyblade that is a mix between two types (Stamina and Defense in this case), but you can't bring it very far without it becoming inadequate in both types. Aside from Stamina, using Virgo adds other qualities to a Stamina type, but it also is not the best Stamina Wheel any longer, and usually cannot withstand Attack types like it luckily did in our battle.
