Blade: Shark Edge METAL COAT: BLUE

Weight:  34g (LOW END) - 35g (HIGH END)

• Design: A two sided sloped blade that extends down with large fins that extend up. 

• Uses a variety of attack potential: Capable of both strong upper attack (launching Beyblades into the air) and smash attack (sending Beyblades into pockets). 

•  Attack VS Attack performance: In an attack vs. attack (AVA) matchup, SharkEdge can do alright, the issue that it has is the stamina it has and strong hits can either make or break for the match.

• Attack VS Defense/Stamina: SharkEdge will certainly be your go-to if you want to nuke your opponent with a strong and powerful hit. It has a solid chance to either burst them due to the upper part of the blade making contact to hit the ratchet when it tilts, or knocking out the opponent with its attacks.

• SharkEdge on Stamina/Defense: If you want SharkEdge to be a silent killer with the ability to potentially defeat your opponent with standing still and strong hits, it is possible to do so. The tradeoff of hoping it can win like that will be up to you.

Strengths: 

• Explosive Critical Hits: SharkEdge whether worn or mint can do VERY strong last minute KOs and strong hits to burst or to have your opponent knocked out in the end.

Weaknesses:

• Low Stamina: Fast and aggressive but has low stamina, depleting quickly over time.

• Negative Recoil: However, it is susceptible to recoil, which can lead to rapid stamina depletion or failure to KO the opponent when used for attack combinations. An example can be if a blade just counters it too well like PhoenixWing the recoil can work against itself and it can lose via being KO'd (Over Finish) or Spin Finish via stamina loss.

• Glass Cannon: While it hits extremely hard, it also has no stamina, making it vulnerable if it doesn’t win early.

Overall: Shark Edge is a blade that is very explosive and solid for sniping ratchets, if one wants a hard hitting attacker then Shark Edge is a welcome addition to anyones collection.

Gameplan: On setups with low height on any aggressive bit that can get speed, like Flat Taper, you must hard launch and aim to defeat your opponent quickly. 

Combos:

Attack:  SharkEdge 3-60/4-60/5-60/9-60 /7-60 Point/Flat/Low Flat/Taper/Rush/Low Rush

Stamina:SharkEdge 3-60/4-60/5-60/9-60 Ball/ Orb / Free Ball

Defense: SharkEdge 3-60/4-60/5-60/9-60 Needle/HighNeedle/Under Need

Ratchet: 5-60

Weight: 6.6g

• Design: 5-60 is a ratchet that has 5 sides and a low height, the contact areas for the ratchet are 5 somewhat wide points.

Strengths: 

• Stamina: Generally due to the shape and its OWD (outwards weight distribution) it can have greater stamina than other ratchets giving Beyblades more balance.

• Defense: Due to being 5 sided and thick, this ratchet has some of the best defense out of all the ratchets and only really is worse than 9 sides due to how 9 sides is exposed. 

• Low Height: It is one of the lowest height ratchets, making it a great use for attack combinations or other low height setups depending on context.

Bit: Gear Flat

Weight: 2.3g

• Design: Gear Flat is a variant of the regular Flat Bit with a jagged gear shape and an indent. It features an 80 rating for Burst resistance. 

Strengths:

• Maximum Attack Potential: Gear Flat is currently the fastest bit in Beyblade X as of January 2023, offering the highest attack potential. 

• Xtreme Dash: Designed for Xtreme Line launches, Gear Flat excels in KOing or Xtreme Finishing opponents.

• Burst Resistance: With an 80 rating for Burst resistance, Gear Flat provides minimal Burst risk.

Weaknesses:

• Low Stamina: Due to its high speed, Gear Flat depletes stamina rapidly. Be cautious with your launch strength. 

• Vulnerability to Self-KO: Similar to other flat bits, Gear Flat can self-KO with a hard launch or improper angle, although it may occasionally result in an Xtreme Finish against the opponent.

Gameplan:

• Flat launch or a somewhat tilted angle shoot:Use a flat launch or a slightly tilted angle to leverage the stadium’s gimmicks and aim for knockouts.

Overall: While Gear Flat offers exceptional attack potential, its high risk and susceptibility to RNG make it a risky choice. It’s a valuable addition to any blader's collection, but its performance is highly dependent on precise technique and launch control.
