I can't see many XF combos popping up as a counter to this due to the rarity of the blade, ecspecially if a cheap alternative can be acquired by using CS or a destabilizer instead.

And I haven't done testing yet, but I can pretty much guarantee that destabilizers will obliterate RS due to it's poor balance and stamina.

Perhaps. But if many RF-based customs are having trouble KOing RS-based customs, what makes you think they'll have any better luck using something like XF? Using XF, WF or any other Flat Bottom would allow you to outspin the RS Beyblade, but in that case, why not just use a Stamina custom?

It's only something probably everyone's heard from me about a 1000 times already, and we know.
We think RS is a good thing, no one thinks it's bad.

Its not that Attack style bladers are going to struggle. Hypothetically, if RS becomes part of a Tier 1 Defense custom, Attack style bladers will simply have to find a Bottom with more Stamina than that of RS or RF. Meaning several options open up including the following: F, XF, WF, and even HF.
Sure, switching to a non-rubber bottom means you are sacrificing attack, but in a match up against RS, it is more than likely going to be worth it.
