It was originally released in [[Random Booster Vol.4 Mirage Virgo]], where it is a rare Beyblade. It has since become more easily obtainable in the Starter version released SonoKong, and Hasbro's normal release. The beyblade contains two metal balls in the middle giving it good balance. In the anime, Gingka mentions that it's a Bey that never wobbles due to GB145. Earth Virgo is said to be one of the best Beys in the 'Metal Fusion' series. With its Spin Track and Fusion Wheel, Earth, it is a top-tier Bey. {{Template:Beyblade Metal Fusion

Virgo was first released in a translucent yellow color. Virgo has a smooth, flowing design to emulate, a woman's hair, which has lots of centrifigal force, and features a small notch on both sides, though it dents quite easily. It's quite similar to the shape of the Burn Fusion Wheel.

==Spin Track: GB145==
Earth is a great Stamina Wheel that also exhibits a good deal of Defense. It has small openings as well, to help the air flow. It has four "Blades", each of which are curved in, like a shield. This makes Earth insanely deflective and helps with lowering recoil from Smash Attacks. Earth also seems to beat Rock in more battles due to weight again deflection for a undisturbed spin. In terms of outclassing, Earth is a better choice for Defense than Rock, Counter, and most other Metal Wheels available. However, since Twisted (Basalt) is much heavier than Earth and has the same or even less low recoil, Twisted and Duo outclass Earth in Defense. Earth has absolutely no Attack potential and should never be paired competitively with an Attack Bottom.

===Toyline===
Earth has two different molds. The first mode was released in BB-47 Starter Earth Aquila 145WD, and the second in both the purple WBBA "Event Special" MF Earth Aquila 105HF/S, and SonoKong manufactured the Earth Metal Wheels. However, Takara-Tomy has since ceased production on the first mold, thus making it a difficult part to obtain. The second mold addressed breaking problems that the original mode faced by modifying the inside of each of Earth's wings. The second mold is up to three grams heavier than the old mode (30-31 grams versus 33 grams on the new mold), which makes it significantly more effective for Defense customizations. Therefore, the new mold is the preferred choice for Defense customs using Earth, while the original mode would be the best for Stamina.

'''Earth Virgo GB145BS''' is comprised of mostly outclassed parts, and only GB145 holds enough potential in a contemporary metagame.
*'''Weight:''' 4.5 grams
 
[[File:Track_gb145.jpg|thumb|GB145 Side View]]GB145 is a wide, round Track featuring two free moving metal balls. These balls move toward the outside of the Track while spinning, causing additional spin retaining force which increases stamina, similar to Draciel Metal Ball Defender's Metal Ball Base from the plastic generation. Weighing in at 4.5 grams, GB145 is currently the third heaviest Track available, and as such is extremely useful in Defense customizations. However, because it lacks energy-absorbing free spinning wings, it is not as effective as C145 against low attackers such as Quetzalcoatl 90WF.
 
 
Where GB145 does shine is when it is utilized in Defense customizations against high CH120-based Attackers, such as MF Lightning L Drago CH120RF. These types of Attackers do not aim to hit the Track, and thus the free spinning claws of C145 are not necessary, and you instead get a significant increase in the overall weight of the customization. It's good when used in Attack customization like Ray Capricorne GB145MF. It can also be extremely effective in this Defense combo: MF-H Basalt (Twisted) Capricorne GB145 RS/ES/BS
 
 
Note: If you shake the Random Booster Vol. 4 Mirage Virgo and it rattles, there is a high chance you will get an Earth Virgo GB145BS. The rattling sound is caused by the balls in GB145, this is a good way to obtain Earth Virgo or you could get the Sonokong version, if the package wasn't a box and a bag, you could feel the package and if you felt a large Track then its likely to be GB145 and that only comes with 1 bey of its series, or you can feel its weight. If you could feel an oval shaped track, it should be GB145. PS: Do not rely too much on shaking the box. You might get other beys with ES bottoms e.g. Earth Cancer DF145ES, Flame Aquila 100ES since of the metal bar that wobbles. All RBV4 that has the Earth Virgo has a thin cardboard slit through the small holes of the GB145, thus not making any sound, never rely on shaking the box. GB145 can add spin time to the beyblade, about 45-1min.

==Performance Tip: BS (Ball Sharp/Ball Spike)==
 
*'''Weight:''' 1.2 grams
 
 
[[File:BS.jpg|thumb]]Ball Sharp is amazing for Stamina-Type customisations due to its sharp point and round surface. When the Bey is knocked, it will spin around on the spheric surface and re-stabilise itself with ease. It works well with GB145 and permits excellent stability.

Revision as of 18:22, 12 June 2020

Earth Virgo GB145BS is a Stamina-type Beyblade released in Japan as the prize Beyblade in Random Booster Vol. 4 Mirage Virgo in September 2009 for 682円.

Face Bolt: Virgo

Main article: Face Bolt - Virgo

The Face Bolt depicts "Virgo", the sixth astrological sign in the Zodiac and one of the 88 constellations in space. The word "Virgo" is written in stylized letters below a head representing Virgo. The initial Hasbro release of this Face Bolt fills in the letters, while later releases such as Night Virgo DF145BS replace the letters with a swoosh instead.

Energy Ring: Virgo

Main article: Energy Ring - Virgo

Virgo was first released in a translucent yellow tint. Virgo has a smooth, easily flowing design to emulate a woman's hair, and features a small notch on both sides. Attack: 1 - Defense: 2 - Stamina: 4

Fusion Wheel: Earth

Main article: Fusion Wheel - Earth

Earth has four thick, textured wings surrounding its perimeter, with each pair facing each other on a slight incline. The space created between the wings is quite small, and the resulting effect is similar to any Wheel that has no spaces: minimal recoil. Though it is on the lighter side of Metal Wheels, its almost unperturbed circular design, and minimal recoil made it one of the best, Defense-oriented Wheels available for competitive play. However under Standard format, it has since been severely outclassed by the extremely heavy 4D Metal Wheels and Zero-G Chrome Wheels paired in Synchrom, such as Duo, Revizer and Genbull.

Spin Track: GB145

Main article: Spin Track - GB145

Gravity Ball 145 (GB145) is a wide, round Spin Track with two free moving metal balls. These balls move towards the outside of the Spin Track while spinning, causing additional spin retaining force. While the Spin Track is relatively heavy due to the inclusion of the metal balls, it has been outclassed by later releases of Stamina Type Spin Tracks.

At release Gravity Ball 145 was seen as inferior to Claw 145 (C145), due to the lack of energy-absorbing free spinning wings, making it not as effective against low attacker Beyblades, which were popular at the time. Gravity Ball 145 later found use in Defense Type combinations against Change Height 120 (CH120)-based attacker Beyblades. These types of attackers do not aim to hit the Spin Track, and thus the free spinning wings of C145 are not necessary, and instead a Beyblade could be given a significant increase in the overall weight of the customization. However, it has been outclassed for Defense Type customizations by Spin Tracks such as Boost Disk 145 (BD145). Attack: 0 - Defense: 3 - Stamina: 2

Performance Tip: BS

Main article: Performance Tip - BS

Bottom Spike is quite similar to that of Spike. Bottom Spike offers very little movement and as such gives no Attack potential. The pointed tip allows for very little friction between the bottom and the stadium surface, which helps prevent the loss of Spin Velocity. Bottom Spike has decent Stamina, but because the tip is so fine, it experiences the same balance issues that Spike does. Defense, Semi-Defense, and Wide Defense are much better choices. Attack: 0 - Defense: 3 - Stamina: 4
