Community testing, 2008-05-31 — summarised

The competitive view

Wolborg MS is a Hard Metal System Beyblade widely regarded as an archetypal 'Zombie' survival build, valued for combining a circular Attack Ring, circular Weight Disk, and Bearing Core into one part configuration.

The Bearing Core-equipped attack build is reported to perform best when launched in the same spin direction as the Bearing Core combo it is paired against, suggesting spin-direction matching matters for its attack performance.

  • A a later account reports a black Wolborg MS variant with a harder tip, distinct from the commonly-owned ice-blue version
