Evil Pisces ED145WD is a Defense-type Beyblade and a variation of Thermal Pisces T125ES. It comes in the Spiral Blitz 2-Pack, with a recolored version of Earth Virgo GB145BS.
Face Bolt: Pisces[]
- Main article: Face Bolt - Pisces
The Face Bolt depicts "Pisces", the twelfth astrological sign in the zodiac and one of the 88 constellations in space. While Pisces is commonly associated with fish, the design features a shark instead. The word "Pisces" is displayed underneath the shark; this is absent in Hasbro releases of Pisces, with the letters being filled in.
Energy Ring: Pisces[]
- Main article: Energy Ring - Pisces
Pisces features a design depicting two sharks circling clockwise around each other with the head, dorsal fin, and tail of each shark breaking through a series of waves. The upward protrusions are designed as shark teeth, thus making the Energy Ring resemble an open shark's mouth.
Fusion Wheel: Evil/Killer []
- Main article: Fusion Wheel - Evil
Evil has a textured, bumpy, two-winged design that ends in two rounded edges. However, unlike its predecessor, it is considerably thinner even with a smaller amount of metal dropping below the base of the Fusion Wheel. Being so thin, the edges of each wing do not apply as much force as those of the Evil/Killer Gemios Fusion Wheel. As a result, Evil loses any of the potential Smash Attack the first incarnation had. Being so thin negates any possible defensive qualities, and though it may seem suited for Stamina, it performs horribly compared to the Top-Tier Stamina Fusion Wheels such as Earth, Thermal, Flame, Burn, Scythe, and Phantom.
Spin Track: ED145 (Eternal Defense 145)[]
- Main article: Spin Track - Eternal Defense 145
Eternal Defense 145 (ED145) features three "wings" that can freely spin around the Spin Track. The wings and overall design are similar to Wide Defense 145 (WD145). Because of the wings' free spinning nature, Eternal Defense 145 mainly finds use in Defense Type combinations. However, Eternal Defense 145 is not as effective as others such as Boost Disk 145 (BD145), or even Claw 145 (C145), as it is unable to absorb hits effectively. The wings lack the mechanism of a bearing, hence creating friction between the wings and body of the Spin Track, resulting in less hit absorption.
Performance Tip: WD (Wide Defense)[]
- Main article: Performance Tip - Wide Defense
Wide Defense (WD) retains the two curved holes D contained but are now thinner, smaller and found on the Sharp tip.
Being wider brings advantages and disadvantages to WD. An advantage is being able to conserve better Stamina than D and SD, due to the more surface area as well as being able to spin at a lower spin-rate that that of D or SD which cannot. A disadvantage however, is that it is worse at regaining balance than D. The wide shape gives WD a harder time to regain its balance whereas, D does it much easier. This should take into consideration when using a Spin Track such as 230 or TH170. D would be a better choice than WD as it would regain balance much easier to help cope with 230. However, while D can regain balance better, it cannot maintain it as well as WD, especially with the heights of 170 and above.
At release, WD has found quick use as a Stamina-Type Tip, much better than D and has become top-tier. Despite this however, as many more Performance Tips like AS, EWD, and B:D were released; they have overshadowed WD. EWD has also overshadowed WD due to EWD's bearing to regain balance better and much better Stamina. W²D performs basically the same as WD though but with worse balance but better attack.
Wide Defense (WD) has significant defensive capabilities as well, but because it still uses a form of sharp tip, its friction with the stadium floor is decreased, which as a result makes it easier to knock around than a Tip like WB which has much more friction with the stadium floor. But since it can recover quickly, it does not matter.
Some Bladers experience a fast movement from Wide Defense, allowing the Wide Defense tip with fast movement to be paired with high-recoil fusion wheels such as Vulcan, Beat, Fang, Spiral, Flash, or Variares, to create powerful, or even a 1-Hit KO Attack-type combos, or be paired with low-recoil fusion wheels such as Bakushin, Duo, Gravity (Perseus Stamina), Fusion, Wing, Death to create counter-attacking Defense-Type combos.
