Buster Xcalibur Testing and Discussion - Needforspeed - Jul. 01, 2020
Since the burst limited format has given bX a chance i want to make it as effective as ever in this format.
Testing
Spoiler (Click to View)
Xceed might be good for opposite spin matches since it can equalize a opposite spin match up really well maybe as good as Ds idk need more testing tho but the bX layer is overall really good for same spin matches

Bump, Can someone do bX 00B Jolt Vs Nightmare luinor l3 Flow Xtreme
I don’t have a B-09

Xcalibur is good and breaker mode is the better mode cause since the the sword moves when he gets hit on the sword it hits it's opponent the sword gets pushed in and then bounces back out to do some serious damage.

ok I finally got around to testing this layer because I felt like it was an upgrade to Sieg Xcalibur. And my testing says I'm right, but its only just barely an improvement. Though none of these tests really show how much the improved teeth strength matter.
Also these tests have a Sieg Xcalibur test against the same opponent for comparison.
Vs Defense
So for these tests I wanted to see how capable they were at breaking defense combos compared to each other. I used orbit on aC/sA since that's more defensive than Atomic. While Shining Amaterios is considered an experimental opponent, its definitely a defensive upgrade to Alter Chronos and felt worth testing against. Buster Xcalibur is in buster mode because not even re-releases fixed its mode locking switch.
MGC Sieg Xcalibur.00Bump.Orbit vs Alter Chronos.00Proof.Orbit
(Simultaneous launches)

Ties: 0

(Simultaneous launches)
bX.00B.O: 3 wins (3 OS)

Notes: These matches were a lot more close than the matches with sX vs aC.

(Simultaneous launches)
bX.00B.O: 6 wins (6 OS)
sA.00P.O: 4 wins (4 OS)
Ties: 0
Notes: This match is kinda weird. bX just was perfectly able to destabilize sA for some reason.
Vs Stamina
Twin Nemesis is in upper mode since that's appearently good for destabilizing opponents. You learn something new everyday.

Notes: yeah this is a case where bX's better teeth would help

Using Keep'
Seems like in general both stationary Xcalibur combos were doing poorly, so I decided to change to a set up where I could launch them second instead of doing simultaneous launches. Though it seems worse. Also against Alter Chronos since that layer is defense.

(bX launched second)
bX.00B.Kp': 3 wins (3 OS)

Ties: 0
Overall, I feel like bX is definitely an improvement to sX, though slight. I would have tried it on a mobile combo using X', but I feel like the that test might not be reliable since my X' might be too worn, or I've lost my touch at launching rubber flats in right spin. bX doesn't seem formatting breaking, but at the same time do we even want an upgrade to sX to exist in this format? I'm skeptical to layer powercreep, especially since I want Legend Spriggan to be good.
RE: Buster Xcalibur Testing and Discussion - AirKingNeo - Nov. 07, 2020
I did some attack comparison tests, one reason to see how good bX was compared to sX and tN. Other layers are present because I was also testing them. Yeah my previous tests only did stationary attack, which isn't good imo. bX on KO attack is really, really good. Probably better than other attack layers.
Quote:Attack Comparison Test
I tested a bunch of attack layers, trying to compare the experimental layers (Union Power, Buster Xcalibur, Flare) with the control layers (Sieg Xcalibur, Twin Nemesis) using Alter Chronos as the opponent, since Alter Chronos is a well known defense layer, but its lack in stamina can show the stamina potential of attack layers if they exist.
