Would this consist of weighing and measuring pieces, as well as getting information and finding angles? It sounds a lot harder than it seems, now doesn't it, aha?
As for credit, I guess including how I worked on those pieces of work would be good, though don't including the parts where I critiqued you. I'll work on a couple more things tomorrow morning, though they won't be anything big, as I wouldn't want to say how 75% of the work is mine.

For other versions, perhaps you should add the PHWS/Metal System version too? (D125 BS, I believe- at least, the one from the HK Special 3 Pack is).
Jul. 03, 2014 1:34 AM
There were actually three metal system Pisces made. The original from Random Booster Volume Two, the HK Three Pack (with Virgo and Aries), and then the Premium Returns version.

Thanks, I knew there were at least 2. I know that the HK Set and Premium Returns were both D125 BS, not sure about the Random Booster.

So, if this is for the FaceOff Set, post a new draft according to the articles we already have on Beywiki for other FaceOff Sets. Otherwise, I would have to close this, since as was mentioned by other people, we do not really make separate articles for Beyblades included in sets, unless they come with a unique part.
Jul. 03, 2014 2:19 AM
Please dont close it!!!!
This is my very first article and I'm doing my best to make this perfect!!!!
Check the op guys!

You did read Kai-V's post right?.... You need to make it so where it shows comtent like the 2-pack, and it needs to be how 2-pack draft are usually written on Beywiki for it to stay open.
(Jul. 02, 2014 8:35 PM)Raigeko13 Wrote: [ -> ]Spoiler (Click to View)Face: Pisces
The Face depicts Pisces, the twelfth astrological sign of the Zodiac.
Clear Wheel: Pisces
Pisces was first released in a translucent midnight blue colour. Pisces depicts two sharks circling clockwise around each other with the head, dorsal fin, and tail of each shark breaking through a series of waves. This Clear Wheel is best combined with Screw, as its shape and slopes allow proper space to enhance Screw's own slopes and it does not get in its way for attacks, maximizing the contact areas.
Metal Wheel: Killer
Like its Metal System predecessor Gemios, Killer has a textured, bumpy, two-winged design that ends in two rounded edges. However, unlike its predecessor, it is considerably thinner even with a smaller amount of metal dropping below the base of the Wheel. Being so thin, the edges of each wing do not apply as much force as those of the Gemios Metal Wheel; as a result, Killer loses any of the potential Smash Attack the first incarnation had.
Being so thin negates any possible defensive qualities, and though it may seem suited for Stamina, it performs poorly compared to other top-tier Stamina Wheels such as Virgo, Burn, and Earth.
Track: ED145
ED145 features three “wings†which rotate around the Track freely. The wings are similar to that of WD145. Because of their free-spinning nature, they can be used in Defense customisations, such as MF-H Basalt Bull ED145RS; however, the defensive capabilities of this part are not as effective as GB145, TH170, or BD145, as it does not absorb hits as successfully. The wings which rotate are hindered without the mechanism of a bearing, hence creating a force of friction between the wings and the body of the Track, in turn resulting in less significant damage absorption. Furthermore, it is easy for the low attacker’s Wheel to be caught between the Wheel and ED145, causing a lot of recoil and spin reduction to the Defense customization.
Bottom: Wide Defense
Wide Defense, as its name implies is one of the widest of the "Defense" series of Bottoms (D, SD, WD, PD, EWD). This brings numerous advantages, but also some disadvantages when compared to the other "Defense" Bottoms, specifically D. The advantages include its ability for abnormally long precession times due to its massive width that reaches the edge of the Bottom's perimeter. This allows it to wobble at a significantly larger angle for a longer period of time than D, and at a much lower spin rate. However, depending on the position of the Beyblade using WD and the spin rate of the opponent, this can be disadvantageous because of how easy it becomes to knock over the precessing WD custom. This low spin rate towards the end of the battle is created because in the process of wobbling at such a large angle, more friction is made with the stadium floor, thus decreasing its Stamina. Nevertheless, this more often an advantage than it is a disadvantage.
Newer parts such as CS, EDS and B have overshadowed WD to some degree: CS and EDS due to their ability to be paired with the popular BD145 Track without scraping, and B because of its height and even longer precession times, but WD is still one of the best pure Stamina Bottoms available. However, when selecting high Tracks such as TH170 and 230, WD's tendency to wobble at larger angles should be kept in mind, as its extreme precession can often become problematic.
Although the name suggests Defensive characteristics, WD does not possess any inherent defensive qualities. However, its proficiency can be increased significantly when facing left-spin Attackers through the utilization of the Weak Shooting technique.
Here's something closer to what it should look like. I don't know the other Beyblade in this 2 pack, otherwise I'd do it. I just copied and pasted each part from separate articles on Beywiki.
EDIT: Looks like it's got ED145, not 145, I'll revise that shortly.
EDIT 2: Added in Earth Virgo GB145BS, which was in the 2 pack this came with, below.
This isn't even a complete article, just the basics. No weights, photos, uses in customizations (which can easily be found for each respective part all throughout Beywiki) and whatnot. Fix that up and you're good.Spoiler (Click to View)Face: Virgo
The Face depicts Virgo, the sixth astrological sign of the Zodiac.
Clear Wheel: Virgo
Virgo was first released in a translucent yellow tint. Virgo has a smooth, easily flowing design to emulate a woman's hair, and features a small notch on both sides.
Metal Wheel: Earth
Earth has four thick, textured wings surrounding its perimeter, with each pair facing each other on a slight incline. The space created between the wings is quite small, and the resulting effect is similar to any Wheel that has no spaces: minimal recoil. Though it is on the lighter side of Metal Wheels, its almost unperturbed circular design, and minimal recoil made it one of the best, Defense-oriented Wheel available for competitive play. However, it has since been severely outclassed by the extremely heavy 4D Metal Wheels and Zero-G Chrome Wheels paired in Synchrom, such as Duo, Wyvang and Balro.
Track: Gravity Bowl 145
GB145 is a wide, round track featuring two free moving metal balls. These balls move toward the outside of the Track while spinning, causing additional spin retaining force, similar to Draciel Metal Ball Defenser's Metal Ball Base from the plastic generation. Weighing in at 4.5 grams due to the metal balls, GB145 is relatively heavy but it cannot hold its own compared to subsequent parts. At release, it was seen by some as inferior to C145 due to the lack of energy-absorbing free spinning wings, making it not as effective as against low attackers such as Quetzalcoatl 90RF, which were popular at the time. GB145 used to shine when utilized in Defense customizations against high CH120-based Attackers, such as MF Lightning L Drago CH120RF. These types of Attackers do not aim to hit the Track, and thus the free spinning wings of C145 are not necessary, and you instead get a significant increase in the overall weight of the customization. However, it has been outclassed for Defense customizations by BD145, E230 and TH170.
This Track has found use in the Attack field as a replacement for S130.
Bottom: Ball Sharp
BS offers very little movement and provides no Attack potential. The pointed tip allows for very little friction between the Bottom and the stadium surface, which helps prevent the loss of spin velocity. BS has decent Stamina, but it experiences the balance issues that the S series bottoms share because its tip is so fine. D, WD and SD are better choices.
One major flaw in your article though is that you don't put spaces between punctuation.

Emporer, This is now a two pack article so you should rewrite it already. You only mention 1 Bey.
Yeah,I know.I promised Kai-v I would add the Virgo part today.

Read the OP guys.
Is the name Faceof Set or Spiral Blitz Pack?Too many names and I'm getting confused...
Also,Gravity Bowls or Gravity Balls?

It would be the Spiral Blitz 2-Pack, as it is the name of the set. I thought this was originally for the Evil Pisces ED145WD, no? There's already an article for Earth Virgo on the BeyWiki already, if you weren't already aware of that.
(Jul. 03, 2014 7:08 PM)King E.Emperor Wrote: [ -> ]Also,Gravity Bowls or Gravity Balls?
Just to confirm, it is Gravity Balls, yes.
Jul. 03, 2014 7:23 PM
No, it is just Gravity Ball, don't know where any of you got Gravity Balls...
You have to do both Beyblades in the set, instead of the one.

I added the Earth Virgo part because Kai-v said I would have to write about the set.

TH170 doesn't have any use in Defense combos(Its mentioned in both beys). You should mention the combos GB145 is in, if any. You should add more detail to the face descriptions. For you to copy and paste the parts from other drafts, you need to at least make sure the information is up to date... change the ED145 section to reflect the current meta. And ED145 doesn't have any uses in defense. Change the Killer section to show that Burn and Earth are no longer top tier.

If I'm not mistaken, Hasbro renamed it Gravity Ball, and that was Takara's Gravity Bowl.

Well; Gravity Ball makes far more sense then Bowl. (What bowl is an oval with Bearings in it?)
Also, this is a Hasbro Product so..

As Gravity Ball makes far more sense than Gravity Bowl, as you previously mentioned, it is a Hasbro Product, so it only makes sense for it to be referred to as Gravity Bowl in this case scenario.
I think mentioning that it was originally named Gravity Bowl by Takara Tomy would still be the right thing to do, though. Beywiki did something similar with the whole Killer > Evil renaming, hence the paragraph titled 'Name Change' in the Killer Gemios DF145FS Article.

Explain that Hasbro re-named Takara Tomy's ''Gravity Bowl'' to being ''Gravity Ball'', yes.
You should title that paragraph being ''Name Change'', as Beywiki did that in the past writing one of their articles, as I previously mentioned.
