'''Fang Fenrir''' features a design with too little recoil for Attack, too much recoil for Defense, only average Stamina and weak Burst Resistance. Furthermore, with the release of Cho-Z Layers such as [[Energy Layer - Wonder Valtryek V4|Winning Valkyrie]] and [[Energy Layer - Buster Xcalibur|Buster Xcalibur]], '''Fang Fenrir '''is far too light to be competitive.

Hasbro's '''Fengriff F2''' is virtually unchanged from Takara Tomy's '''Fang Fenrir''' with the same issues of recoil and Burst Resistance. Furthermore, with the release of SwitchStrike Layers such as [[Energy Layer - Xcalius X3|Xcalius X3]] and [[Energy Layer - Luinor L3|Luinor L3]], '''Fengriff F2 '''is too light to be competitive.
