Shinobi Shadow
Weight: 27.9g (LOW END) - 28.2g (HIGH END)
Design: Shinobi Shadow is a 3-sided blade smoothed out at its contact points.
Parry Defense: Shinobi Shadow is designed to have a smooth shape to parry off attackers. The issue in this Blade lies in the shape being decent, but the Blade being so incredibly light negates any potential use.
Attack VS Attack: Shinobi is far too light to be consistent in any attack vs. attack (AVA) matchup; it will simply lose by being deflected and knocked out.
Attack VS Defense/Stamina: Shinobi Shadow is far too light to win any attack combination consistently.
Stamina / Defense: While Shinobi will not win in a stamina vs stamina battle, in defence use, if paired with Disc Ball on a low height ratchet like 60, it is possible to win and potentially out-spin attackers; the same in regards if paired with Hexa. The properties it has to fly around could be utilized in the best case for trying to give this a victory. However, even at that point, you would just use any other Blade for that purpose since a competent attacker user should not struggle against that Blade.
Strengths:
Shape: Shinobi Shadow has a good shape in its design, which is what makes it its biggest strength.
Weaknesses:
Weight: Shinobi is exceptionally light, which only works to ruin anything positive for the Blade.
Overall: Due to its lightweight, Shinobi Shadow's potential is ruined by its being highly outclassed by the majority of Beyblade X, making it a very disappointing release.
Gameplan: On setups with low height on any aggressive bit that can get speed, like Point/Rush, you must hard launch and aim to defeat your opponent via KO or outspin. On other setups, you want to tilt shoot with defense and stamina setups hard to outlast your opponents.
Combos:
Stamina(To be used against attack): Shinobi Shadow 9-60DB
Defense: Shinobi Shadow 3-70/5-70H
Attack: Shinobi Shadow 1-60P
Overall
Due to its lightweight, Shinobi Shadow's potential is ruined by its being highly outclassed by the majority of Beyblade X, making it a very disappointing release.
