Blade Base - SG Metal Flat 2

Blade Base - SG Metal Flat 2 is a Blade Base released as part of the Magnacore System. It debuted with the release of Gaia Dragoon V on September 2002.

Description
The BB of Gaia Dragoon V, SG Metal Flat 2, is the second BB released with a metal flat tip with SG Metal Flat (Driger V) being the first.
 * Weight: 5 grams

SG Metal Flat 2 is the improved version of SG Flat because it is 1 gram heavier and remains nearly the same height. The most distinct change in this BB is having a metal flat tip. Because of this, the Spin Velocity of the BB when spinning increases due to less friction against the stadium surface. This makes it one of the most useful BB for Attack-types such as Smash Attack and Upper Attack.

Use in Smash Attack Customization
Although the metal flat tip isn't as fast as other BBs with grip tips such as Grip Base (Grip Attacker) and SG Grip Change Base (Takara Uriel 2), its Survival ability lasts longer allowing more hits to happen. Here is an example:

Triple Wing, one of the best Smash Attack ARs, combined with Wide Defense accounts for the offense in this. Although the wings of the AR aren't as exposed due to the WD, the Wide Defense adds to the amount of Smash Attack it has from the notches along it. Together with SG Metal Flat 2, which has excellent survival for an attack Blade Base (allowing Triple Wing to deliver decent hits even as the combination is slowing down), and Magnecore (while a Heavy Metal Core may be used for extra controllability, it has negative impact on Survival of the combination) which controls any recoil produced, this is a great attack customization.
 * AR: Triple Wing (Trygle)
 * WD: Wide Defense
 * SG: Neo Right SG
 * SG Core:South/North Magnecore
 * BB: SG Metal Flat 2 (Gaia Dragoon V)

Use in Attack Customization
Triple Tiger has the capability of both Smash Attack as well as Upper Attack depending on how it is used. In this case, because SG Metal Flat 2 is about the average height for an Attack-type base, it has chances to perform both types of Attack. Although versatile with both Smash Attack and Upper Attack, its only flaw is that it doesn't truly focus on just one type of Attack. If you want to focus on just Upper Attack, a lower BB such as Storm Grip (Dragoon S) should be used.
