Thermal Pisces article draft! - Sora. - Jun. 12, 2010
Face:
The face on this Beyblade depicts the Pisces, one of the 88 constellations in space.
Clear Wheel: Pisces
2.7 grams
The Pisces clear wheel is a semitransparent black color. The edge of the clear wheel is almost completely jagged all around, which, not only give the appearance of fins, but also teeth, representing the fish/shark, the symbol it's design is influenced by. This also gives it an aerodynamic advantage compared to other clear wheels. The shape of the clear wheel also tries to fit the aesthetic of Thermal; the shape of clear wheel is almost the same as the inner section of Thermal.
Metal Wheel: Thermal
30.3 grams
Like it's non-hybrid wheel hybrid wheel system predecessor, Pisces, Thermal has a smooth, circular, winged design. It is almost completely round, except for 3 notches on each wing and the small gaps between each wing. These properties make it a good choice for Stamina Customizations.
Use in Stamina Customizations:
Thermal can be put to good use in Thermal Gemios DF145WD.
Use in Defense Customizations:
If Earth is unavailable Thermal can substitute in Thermal Bull C145WB.
Track: T125
Weight: 1.7 grams
T125 has four upward-facing wing protrusions spaced apart widely. The Track is designed to work in a similar way to DF145, although the effect it produces is negligible. The performance of this Track is similar to D125, and as a height, is generally overshadowed by CH120.
Bottom: ES
Weight: 1.0 grams
Eternal Sharp features a free-spinning tip attached to a metal shaft which is held by the Bottom. The part was one of the most heavily anticipated parts in the MFB lineup when first announced, but ES is actually a hugely disappointing part in terms of performance.
Firstly, ES lacks a metal bearing, which would significantly reduce the friction between the free-spinning tip and the rest of the Bottom. All of the best free-spinning tips, notably Bearing Core, had NSK Shield bearings which allowed unhindered spin.
Secondly, the tip shape of ES is not conducive to maximum Stamina; the sharp nature of the Bottom means it is easily destabilized. As all Sharp tips do, Eternal Sharp also has trouble regaining balance, hence making this a poor choice for Stamina. That said, ES still remains superior to BS and S as Stamina Bottoms.
Overall:
Thermal Pisces is by no means a bad Beyblade, but T125 and ES have no competitive uses, which makes Thermal the only useful part. If you already have the correct parts to make a Stamina customization (DF145, WD) then this blade should be the next one to buy. But if you don't, then you should probably start somewhere else.
Comments/Suggestions?

i think the vocabulary and such should be slightly more formal, and the customisation and track sections should have some elaboration (i.e, intended effect of T125, and win rates etc of customisations) overall quite good IMO though.

I called this article already ...
I'll look this over when I'm done with school (expect a lot more Beywiki activity when that happens!). Thermal does seem too bare, but these are certainly good efforts! Thanks.

Oh, sorry.

and thermal has a little bit of upper attack as well
RE: Thermal Pisces article draft! - gurugulu - Jul. 12, 2010
No it doesn't. The thermal only has upper attack in left spin which is impossible.
