Rock Leone 145WB
150px
Number: BB-30
System: Hybrid Wheel System
Type: Defense

Face: Leone

The Face on this Beyblade depicts Leo, the fifth astrological sign in the zodiac. Leo is the Lion.

Clear Wheel: Leone

  • Weight: 3.0 grams

The regular release of Leone is a transparent, blue-green piece. Leone is very circular with small ridge details.

Metal Wheel: Dark

  • Weight: 31.4 grams

Rock has six large protrusions with small, shallow gaps between each one. It also overhangs the Track much like the original Leone Metal Wheel, although to a smaller extent.

Rock is currently the second heaviest Hybrid Wheel System Wheel to date. However, as a Defense type, it is unable to match the qualities of Libra, as firstly, it lacks the sufficient weight of Libra, and secondly, the shape of Rock produces a significant amount of recoil upon contact with another Wheel. As a result, Rock is an outclassed Defense Wheel.

Track: 145

  • Weight: 1.5 grams

The 145 Track is the highest Track available. This Track is very high up and leaves the Beyblade open for attack from below, and doesn’t offer much balance.

Bottom: Wide Ball

  • Weight: 0.7 grams

The Bottom of this Beyblade is its most valuable part. WB is essentially B, with a larger spherical surface, hence “wide”. As a result, it is seen as an improvement over B in terms of Defensive qualities. This is because of the greater surface area in contact with the Stadium floor at any one time. However, because of this wider contact area, the Bottom also causes more movement compared to B. This is disadvantageous when facing an Attack type, because the Defense customisation is closer to the Stadium exits, hence increasing the likelihood of a KO. To prevent this, many launch WB-based customisations at about 60-70% power, meaning that the Beyblade itself stays in the centre, while retaining the defensive qualities of WB.

Use in Stamina Customization

Currently, WB is the preferred choice of Bottom for Defense customisations, in particular top-tier customisation MF Libra C145WB.

Overall

Rock Leone 145WB is comprised of predominantly outclassed parts, except for WB, an extremely important part for Defense customisations. Currently the standard Defense Bottom used, every player should own at least one of this Beyblade.
