Community testing, 2008-08-30 — summarised
The competitive view
Samurai Changer MS is a Hard Metal System Beyblade built around the Samurai Upper attack ring, which is made for Upper Attack, and it is known for a number of complex mode usages. Its attack ring and the Jiraiya Blade are both reported at 22 grams.
The Samurai Upper attack ring's core strength is that it 'lifts things, sends them far away' -- strong Upper Attack.
- Samurai Upper and Jiraiya Blade both reported at 22 grams, though anecdotal reports place Jiraiya Blade slightly higher
