Attack Ring (AR): Upper Dragoon
Upper Dragoon is the best AR for right and second best for left spin Upper Attack (for other Left Spin Upper Attack AR's, please see Dranzer GT's Triangle Wing). Just from looking at it, you can see why this is. This AR has slopes that slant upwards to lift the opposing Beyblade off of the stadium floor. When this occurs, the opposing Beyblade has almost no Defense ability. They can take critical damage from this, and can be knocked out of the stadium. The slopes are also very long, making it more likely to have a successful Upper Attack.
 * Weight: 7 grams

Use in Attack Customization
For Upper Attack to be successful, the slope of Upper Dragoon must be able to reach below the opposing Beyblade. Because of this, using a low BB will make the attack effective against more Beyblades. One of the fastest and lowest BB's available is Dragoon S's Storm Grip Base. Combining these two parts, you can make an Upper Attacker that will repeatedly hit the opponent, reducing its Survival ability and possibly knocking it out. Here is an example combo:
 * AR: Upper Dragoon (Master Dragoon, Kid Dragoon)
 * WD: Ten Heavy
 * SG: Neo-Right SG/Neo-Left SG
 * SG Core: Heavy Metal Core (Takara Metal Driger)
 * BB: Storm Grip Base (Dragoon S)

Use in Specialized Upper Attack Customization
A popular strategy with Upper Attack is to create a Beyblade that sits in the center of the stadium and allows the other Beyblade to come to it. When it makes contact, it will be lifted, dealt damage and tossed away until it moves back to the center again. This strategy leaves the opponent with nowhere to go, as the opposing Beyblade cannot make contact with you without damaging itself seriously.

This Beyblade combines Attack, Defense and Survival very effectively. It is hard to knock out of the stadium due to its weight and round shape, has good survival and attacks effectively with Upper Dragoon.
 * AR: Upper Dragoon (Master Dragoon, Kid Dragoon)
 * WD: Wide Defense
 * SG: Right SG (Bearing Version) (Wolborg)
 * SP: Defense Ring (Voltaic Ape)
 * BB: Customize Grip Base (Dragoon V2)

Use in Defense Customization
Upper Dragoon is almost perfectly round and is one of the heavier ARs. It can be used to effectively add some attack ability to your defense-type Beyblade.

Overall
This Beyblade contains Upper Dragoon, the best AR for right spin upper attack. It has also found a home in defense and survival combos. All players must utilize upper attack successfully in order to win consistently, simply because it is such an effective form of attack. For that reason alone, there is no reason not to recommend this Beyblade. Every player should buy this Beyblade.
