Limited Format Defense Wheel Comparison
________________________________________________________________________________________
Hey everyone, how's it going? So recently, I decided to do comparisons between our present top-tier wheels for Defense, and even in other areas, Libra, Earth, Scythe and Bakushin, to see which of the four does best in certain Defense areas; LTDCs, HTDCs, as well as MTDCs. With that in mind, let's begin, then!
______________________________________________________________________________________
Libra Weight: 42 grams.
Earth Weight: 33 grams.
Bakushin Weight: 31 grams.
Scythe Weight: 34 grams.
So, we see that Libra is by far the heaviest, whereas Earth, Bakushin and Scythe seem to be around the same.______________________________________________________________________________________

Before we get onto the testings, however, lets take a look at the fours' weights. Just to mention, though, my Libra is one of which from the BB-96, and an A2 mold. (Click to View)
Libra Weight: 42 grams.
Earth Weight: 33 grams.
Bakushin Weight: 31 grams.
Scythe Weight: 34 grams.
So, we see that Libra is by far the heaviest, whereas Earth, Bakushin and Scythe seem to be around the same.

R2F and RSF in their prime.
When wins are above 7 once the first ten matches are done, no more testings are done, as we're already able to see what kind of potential it has; this would be the same if the wins are below three.
LTDC Comparison Testings:
Libra 85RSF: 82.5% Average
Libra 85RSF versus Lightning L-Drago 90R2F
Libra: 9/10 (5 OS, 4 KO) 90% win rate.
LLD: 1/10 (ALL KO) 10% win rate.
Libra 85RSF versus Pegasis 90R2F
Libra: 15/20 (7 OS, 8 KO) 75% win rate.
Pegasis: 5/20 (ALL KO) 25% win rate.
Just to mention, the prime reason why so many of Libra's wins were won by KO were simply because Pegasis' recoil. Despite that, though, the overall result was good.
Libra 85RSF versus Omega Horuseus 90R2F
Libra: 9/10 (8 OS, 1 KO) 90% win rate.
Omega Horuseus: 1/10 (ALL KO) 10% win rate.
Overall, Libra's definitely amazing in this area!
Earth Leone 85RSF: 74% Average
Earth Leone 85RSF versus Lightning L-Drago 90R2F
Earth Leone: 14/20 (12 OS, 2 KO) 70% win rate.
LLD: 6/20 (ALL KO) 30% win rate.
A 14/20, definitely passable, though only ten rounds were needed for Libra, Lightning managed to get one more coincidental KO off of Earth, and still following the rules of doing 20 matches where it's wins are between 4 and 6.
Earth Leone 85RSF versus Pegasis 90R2F
Earth Leone: 15/20 (ALL OS) 75% win rate.
Pegasis: 5/20 (ALL KO) 25% win rate.
Okay, I don't really know what to say; this is definitely confusing, seeing as eight of Libra's win the last match with Pegasis were by KO's. I'm not too sure what difference could have been.
Earth Leone 85RSF versus Omega Horuseus 90R2F
Earth Leone: 8/10 (7 OS, 1 KO) 80% win rate.
Omega Horuseus: 2/10 (ALL KO) 20% win rate.
Bakushin Leone 85RSF: 64% Average
Bakushin Leone 85RSF versus Lightning L-Drago 90R2F
Bakushin Leone: 7/10 (12 OS, 2 KO) 70% win rate.
LLD: 6/20 (ALL KO) 30% win rate.
A 14/20, definitely passable, though only ten rounds were needed for Libra, Lightning managed to get one more coincidental KO off of Earth, and still following the rules of doing 20 matches where it's wins are between 4 and 6.
Bakushin Leone 85RSF versus Pegasis 90R2F
Bakushin Leone: 12/20 (9 OS, 3 KO) 60% win rate.
Pegasis: 8/20 (1 OS, 7 KO) 40% win rate.
12/20 isn't necessarily a bad score, but for LTDC, against attack, it kind of is.
Bakushin was KO'ed rather easily and move around the stadium quite a lot, which isn't good.
Bakushin Leone 85RSF versus Omega Horuseus 90R2F
Bakushin Leone: 13/20 (ALL OS) 65% win rate.
Omega Horuseus: 7/20 (ALL KO) 35% win rate.
Overall, Bakushin did pretty horrendously. :\
While the results were always above 60 percent as a win rate, it again, was KO'ed very easily, and when it wasn't, it moved around the stadium quite a lot. Still, despite that, though, it's still a passable option as an LTDC, but didn't do as good as Libra and Earth in this area.
Scythe Leone 85RSF: 70% Average
Scythe Leone 85RSF versus Lightning L-Drago 90R2F
Scythe Leone: 12/20 (5 OS, 7 KO) 60% win rate.
LLD: 8/20 (3 OS, 3 KO) 40% win rate.
Wow, not good. Scythe clearly did really bad against Lightning! Lightning even managed to pull of OS'S off of Scythe, believe it or not. When Scythe did win by OS, though, the matches were always real close. I'm disappointed.
Scythe Leone 85RSF versus Pegasis 90R2F
Scythe Leone: 8/10 (4 OS, 4 KO) 80% win rate.
Pegasis: 2/10 (ALL KO) 20% win rate.
Note: One of the four of Scythe's wins won by KO were out of Pegasis' recoil and it Self-KO'ing itself.
Scythe Leone 85RSF versus Omega Horuseus 90R2F
Scythe Leone: 8/10 (ALL OS) 65% win rate.

Okay, so before I say anything else, let me just say that these HTDCs got absolutely WRECKED by Lightning, like it moved them like they were stamina! I didn't really expect them to do all that impressive, though. I mean, even if Lightning didn't get the KO, it still had a chance at destabilizing the four because of their height.
Overall, nothing much can be determined just yet. Though Earth did best, all of the battles' results and final outcomes were just about the same, so I can't really say much. They still are all fine options for HTDCs.
