Leone is one of the first four Metal Fight Beyblade's released, and it is part of the Horoscope Series along with Pegasis, Bull, and Sagittario.
Face
The face on this Beyblade depicts Leo, which is a sign in the Zodiac.
Wheel
- Weight: 38 grams
- Maximum Outer Diameter: 43.57 Millimeters
- Maximum Height: 8.97 Millimeters
Leone's Wheel has been designed to be very compact and is currently one of the heaviest wheels at 38 grams (coming in second only to Libra, which is 43 grams). Because of its heavy weight, its Defensive ability is quite high and it is not very easily knocked around and is able to outspin or deflect most opponents the majority of the time. Leone's Wheel is one of the top choices for Endurance type customizations, however it is closely matched by Pegasis in that regard.
Leone's potential as a compact Beyblade presently untapped, but if a Track similar to the HMC from the plastic generation is released in the future, this may be changed.
Track: 145 (14.5mm)
- Weight: 1.5 grams
145 is the highest Track available, along with the various other 145-variants (C145, DF145, etc.). It can be used in Stamina customs to great effect due to its tall height, which allows for more wobbling as the Beyblade loses its spin velocity, but that being said, DF145 has this same effect but also the added bonus of its “Down Force” which while negligible, stabilizes the Beyblade it is being used on slightly. 145, being as tall as makes it easily susceptible to low Attackers; however, this should not be seen as a drawback because normally Stamina types are not used against Attack types.
Bottom: Defense
- Weight: 1 gram
This is a Defense Bottom, which acts as a wider version of a Sharp tip. When hit by an opponent, a Beyblade with this Bottom will have lessened recoil and will recover from attacks more efficiently than a Sharp Tip. However, while recovering, the Defense Bottom will cause the Beyblade to lose some stamina, caused by the added friction.
Use in Stamina customization
D was once the best Stamina bottom available, but has been outclassed by SD and WD. However, it can still be used to success in Virgo DF145D.

Overall
Leone 145D was once one of the top choices for defence but now it has been severly outclassed by the likes of Earth and Rock. Due to the wheel's high recoil it is best utilised in the Attack combo MF Leone H145RF.
