Gear Needle
Embedded Files
Weight: 2g
Design: Gear Needle is a Beyblade X bit with low burst resistance and a large gear cone shape with a tiny sphere like bottom.
Strengths:
Counter Movement: Due to the very nature of design the bit is focused on counter attack or counter defense where it will focus on the Xtreme Line and you will have a bit that won't go with out a fight.
Xtreme Dash: If launched correctly similar to a point Gear Needle is specialized in Xtreme Dash due to the nature of the gears.
Stamina Destablizer: While not good at specifically Defense Gear Needle has the property to be able to destablize other opponents and push back in counter movement.
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. Despite being a defense bit most of the use come at some wacky stamina hybrid combo where it can sometimes help beat a lot of stuff via destabilization but it is far too inconsistent.
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 Needle is too inconsistent to be seriously considered for anything, while it is usable for sure, at a tournament unless you want to gamble RNG you are better off using a High Needle at events. As such it is best kept for collection only unless you want the KO risk.
