Variares D:D

Variares D:D is a Defense-Type Beyblade that appears in the Anime and Manga series, Metal Fight Beyblade 4D. It can spin left and right, exactly like Gravity Destroyer AD145WD. It comes with a multi-directional Light Launcher called Light Launcher LR (L3R) in which the prongs can be removed and stored in a clip on the Launcher's side. It was released on July 16, 2011 in Japan but had an early release at the World Hobby Fair 2011. It is owned by King.

Face Bolt: Variares
The Face Bolt depicts "Ares". In Greek mythology, Ares was the Greek god of War. The design features a yellow helmet-like design with glowing green eyes on a red background whilst on a black Face Bolt. The helmet looks like it has swords at the sides and a shield between the blades.

Fusion Wheel: Variares

 * Weight: 43.7 grams

Variares is known to be the second Fusion Wheel that can be spun left and right, after Gravity. Variares has a unique design featuring three wings with many spikes and protrusions sticking out. There is a gap between each wing which reveals the PC Frame. The Wheel consists of the metal part, the yellow PC Frame with a shield-like design that can retract during battle, and a red plastic part at it's bottom. The Wheel can also change mode similar to other 4D Beys. However, this occurs during battle from the centrifugal force and is not manual. At first it starts out in "Attack Mode" in which the PC Frame is hidden and when rotation becomes lower, it reverts to "Defense Mode" where the PC Frame appears. However, unlike the other 4D Wheels, all pieces of this Fusion Wheel are together.

Because of Variares's unique and versatile design, it makes it the most powerful Heavy-Attack-Type Fusion Wheel. Combined with it's heavy weight and many spikes and protrusions, it is perfectly capable for Smash Attack and has become a top-tier attack wheel.

It does suffers from moderate recoil however, but this can be overcome via Metal Face bolt or Metal Face-Heavy from the MF2 custom face set, of which the latter is generally preferred. With the Metal Face, the recoil becomes more controllable and is used to create powerful Smash Attacks, and with the ability to rotate left, it has become the most versitile, and powerful attack wheels to date. Though it does require a powerful launch to make VariAres perform optimally due to the weight of the wheel. Overall, Variares is an excellent Attack-Type Wheel and can be very powerful in battle with the right parts.

Use in Attack Customization
Variares can be use in Attack Customizations, like MF-H Variares 85/CH120/R145RF, which is Top-Tier, and even works well on BD145 against some opponents, although the Boost Disk does block full access to its natural contact points, causing a reduction in the Power of the smash attacks. Because of this CH120 has become the frontrunner as the 'track of choice' for Variares in the WBO community.

Attack: 1 - Defense: 6 - Stamina: 0.



4D Performance Tip: Delta Drive (D:D)

 * Weight: 5.44 grams

Delta Drive is an interchangable 4D Performance Tip unique to Vari Ares. It can change between three different modes which change how it performs: "Flat" for Attack, "Wide Ball" for Defense, and "Sharp" for Stamina. The Tip can simpily be changed by pulling the Tip until it lightly clicks, then scrolling to your preferred Tip and pushing it back in place. It is black in color.

These Tips sometimes wobble during battle and thus, reduces Stamina. The Sharp Tip has bad stability due to the D:D height, which there for does not have many uses, while Flat works great, its low grip, and small diameter makes it relatively useless, the Wide Ball mode of this Delta Drive looks like a completely different mold of WB, but performs relatively the same as its predecessor, and has mediocre defensive properties. Overall, Delta Drive is a useless Performance Tip due to it's Tips; Sharp, Flat, and Wide Ball all being outclassed by Tips like Rubber Sharp, Metal Flat, and Defence Sharp and having bad balance. Despit this, it does have use in Balance-Type Customizations.

The ability to have all these tips in one Performance Tip, helps Bladers in a battle, as they can switch the Tip for any purpose between rounds.

Attack: 2 - Defense: 3 - Stamina: 2
