The normal String Launchers seem to be a little bit more durable. They only use 2 gears, while the LR Launchers use 3 gears at a time. There's less strain on the launcher and there are less gears to break. I'd recommend getting both of the Long BeyLauncher sets (the ones with Proof and the Xtend+ Chip) because they're the most powerful standard BeyLaunchers plus they give you launcher accessories and access to two pretty good parts (assuming that you have Xtend). If you don't want the full sets, there are separate releases of just the launchers (B-137 for Long BeyLauncher R and B-141 for Long BeyLauncher L).

What I'm saying is that the simpler the mechanisms involved (with the exception of proto launchers, those are utter carp), the more durable it is. However, durability does not necessarily translate to spin power, as the Long LR Beylauncher (that came with czA Starter) is the most powerful one as of now, followed by its predecessor (that was released as stand-alone) LR Beylauncher, then the Long  L and Long R Beylaunchers, then the LR Dragon/Diabolos Long Winder ripcord Launcher, then the Phoenix Launcher, and lastly the Digital Sword Launcher.

Hope this adds a bit more into your decision-making for choosing the best Launcher according to your pull strength

so to clear up as long as I don't strain the LR dragon long winder it won't break

Yeah, don't do it like Drum or Shu 2.0. Would suggest you try a gradual hard pull, where you start a bit slow then gradually quickening your pull. It does take a while to get used to, and can also be done with LR Beylaunchers since they have more prong rotations per pull compared to the LR Dragon/Diabolos ripcord ones

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee rip I was planing one swift pull I how do you start slow then speed up oh that's why I broke my LR string launcher facepalm

That is kinda hard to explain, cuz I do pull hard all the time with ripcord ones (the orange light launcher with that long winder and rotating handle with a finger hole grip was the bomb back then, surpassing power from the red Sword Launcher of Xeno Xcalibur), then I eventually read in the forum and watched in YT about that slow start then gradual hard mid to end-pull

If you have a good imagination, you can try visualizing (or whatever term is for imagining the sound) it as sound effects:

1. quick and hard pulls normally have that "KRRRIT" sound when you launch

2. slow to gradual fast pull should sound something like "Krrrrrrrrr" with a gradually increasing tempo then when you reach around half to end of your ripcord you should hear the familiar "KRRRIT" sound. So when you do it in a fluid motion it should have a "KrrrrrrRRRRRIT" sound


Another way to visualize is trying to imagine from beginning to around half of your ripcord you're on slow-motion pulling which gradually increases then an almost sudden jerk/pull towards the end. 

I've already graduated from school for a while now so I really can't explain why that method gives more spin than the lightning quick pulls you would usually do (I say that cuz there is a definite physics/logic that further delves on it, I don't remember anymore lol)

Maybe having an initial slow pull delays the stress on the 8-shaped ratchet thingy in the launching prong that makes that "KRRRRIT" sound as it rotates compared to pulling hard immediately (which apparently makes your 8-shaped ratchet thingy skip and produce an inversely weaker spin for the Bey)

Krrrrt? Does my launcher talk?

I'm so sorry if I can't find a better sound effect to have that visualization then. I'm at work and I'm too lazy to make a demo video just to explain it. And it was in quotation marks to signify that it sounds like it, but if you want to take it literally that your launcher "talks", then be my guest.
