Gear Ball
Weight: 2.1g
Design: GearBall is a Beyblade X bit with low burst resistance and a large semi-sphere on the bottom.
Strengths:
General High Stamina: The Ball bit due to its design of semi sphere is currently the best bit to use for pure stamina in Beyblade X.
Xtreme Dash: If launched correctly similar to a point gear ball can be used to do have movement that can fight back against whatever Beyblade it is up against to KO them or Xtreme.
Weaknesses:
KO Risk: Due to shape not being something that can really grip the stadium it can easily be KO'd costing you big points.
Gimmick failure?: Since the bit has low burst resistance and it is focused on fast movement it forces this bit to just die easily to Burst Finish and not be as consistent as you want. At BEST, you can have this used for pure stamina battles as opposed to any attack stuff. It can just perish too much to be considered.
Gameplan:
Somewhat tilted angle shoot and throw: To maximize the effectiveness of this Bit, you can employ a slight angle and throw the Beyblade on the opposing side from where you launch. This is to avoid knockouts and to conserve stamina.
Be aware of the top corners on the opposite side of where the Xtreme Finish is: Aim to try to KO with your movement.
Needs a STRONG shoot to be consistent.
Overall
Gear Ball is too inconsistent to be seriously considered for anything, while the stamina can be greater than regular ball, the fact the gimmick is focused on the Xtreme Line with no real added Burst resistance makes this suffer. Gear Ball bursts far too easily compared to other ball variants and should not be prioritized over them. The most you get out of Gear Ball is just stamina vs stamina battles. As such it is a welcome addition to any bladers collection but should not really get used.
