Performance Tip - Charge Metal - p0l1w4g06 - Jul. 20, 2022
Charge Metal (チャージメタル, Chāji Metaru) is a Performance Tip released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Superking Layer System. It debuted in Japan with the release of the B-171 Superking Triple Booster Set on August 8th, 2020.
==Description==
Charge Metal, like its regular counterpart, [font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]features a metal-plated bottom, similar to Octa. Unlike Charge however, the tip is now made of metal and retooled into a Zephyr-esque tip. In theory, this design is meant to be both fast and hit hard, but in comparison to rubber tips such Xtreme', it is extremely lackluster in both departments, and has poor LAD potential due to the wide base being extremely jagged, with poor stamina to boot. It also has a weaker spring compared to most Performance Tips.[/font]
[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]That said, Charge Metal does have a niche use when paired up with the Guilty blade, where it can be hard-launched without fear of accidentally knocking the Charge Metal combo out itself, though it much less consistent than on usual Rubber Tips.[/font]
[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]==Use in Attack Combinations==[/font]
[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Charge Metal can be used in the extremely niche but somewhat workable Attack Combination Guilty Longinus/Bahamut Over/Giga Charge Metal-2. Due to being able to Bank aggressively without losing control, it can be used to build up enough momentum for Guilty to KO most combinations using it, though its Opposite Spin Stamina is not very good.[/font]
[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]==Overall==[/font]
[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Outside of a niche combination with Guilty, Charge Metal isn't worth using over traditional Attack Tips such as Xtreme'.[/font]
[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]As such, unless one wants to use the Guilty Blade with it for a niche combination, it is for collection purposes only.[/font]
