Face Bolt: Pyxis
Even though the bey is named Flame Byxis, the face, which bears a compass rose, is actually Pyxis. The actual bolt is a clear lavender, and the printed picture is blue.
Energy Ring: Byxis
The Byxis Energy Ring is a tealish green with the design of a compass. It has the North, East, West, and South symbols on their respective sides. There is sort of a compass rose in the middle, pointing outwards from the Face Bolt. If paired up with a low spin track, the Byxis Energy Ring can actually deal slight upper attack damage.
Fusion Wheel: Flame
- Weight: 32.5 grams
The Metal Wheel Flame was first released with Flame Sagittario C145S. It is predominantly circular, with two small spikes and two additional smaller gaps on its circumference. The Wheel is relatively thin throughout, with the very edge of the Wheel being slightly thicker. Due to the design of Flame where the Wheel’s perimeter is raised slightly, more of the Track below is exposed compared to other Wheels, hence making it easier for other Beyblades to strike its Track. This significantly reduces its Defense capabilities. In Flame Byxis' case, it is, however, fine due to the 230 spin track.
Spin Track: 230
The Spin Track 230 is a Spin Track only used by the Beyblade Flame Byxis. This track is remarkably high, and is a bright pink color. This provides good defense from low attacking Beys, for example, Lightning L-Drago, and Storm Pegasus. It is also the highest track of all Beyblades.
It is the tallest track made to this date and has made a large impact on Beyblading. Before Byxis' release, small and low Beyblades dominated competitive play, but the 230 Spin Track is not greatly affected by shorter Beyblades at all. Higher tracks such as 130 or higher are recommended for battle against this track.
Performance Tip: Wide Defense
- Tip Comparison: SD, D, and WD
- Weight: 0.7 grams
Wide Defense, as its name implies is the widest of the “Defense” series of Bottoms (D, SD, and now WD). This brings numerous advantages, but also some
Tip Comparison: SD, D, and WD
disadvantages when compared to the other “Defense” Bottoms. Because of its massive width that reaches the edge of the Bottom's perimeter, it is able to wobble at a significantly larger angle for a longer period of time than D or SD, and at a much lower spin rate. This can be advantageous in many battles, particularly those between two Stamina types when they are about to topple over; however, if you happen to have a weaker shot than your opponent who is using something such as Virgo DF145SD, WDs low spin rate towards the end of the battle will make it extremely easy for the opponent to knock it completely over. This low spin rate towards the end of the battle is created because in the process of wobbling at such a large angle, more friction is made with the stadium floor, thus decreasing its Stamina. This is all avoidable however if your shot is at least as powerful as your opponent, as the extra time it is able to spin on an angle will allow you to narrowly outspin your D or SD based opponent.
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 something like WB which has much more friction with the stadium floor. WD does of course offer superior Stamina to WB which in rare cases would be an advantage, but WB more often than not has enough Stamina to outlast Attack types.
Trivia
- 230 that comes with Flame Byxis is the second highest track avalible and is part of the Maximum Series.
- Flame Byxis is often called Flame Pyxis by mistake, since the original name of the Star sign is Pyxis, and that was the original name.
- Putting 230 and WD together makes this beyblade charge at random around the field, making 230 and WD together a balance type.
- It havs much stamina, little defense and almost no attack it's still a balance beyblade.The same thing is also with Earth Eagle 145WD
