Right Engine Gear (Metal Flat)
Weight: 10.9g
Engine Gear with a wide metal tip, similar in width to SG Metal Flat Base (Gaia Dragoon V Version).
Requires fairly deep banking to flower, but can flower quite well.
Until recently was considered "okay" but not exceptional - the best offensive Engine Gear and most practical due to a good tip shape but overall being outclassed by SG Metal Flat Base (Gaia Dragoon V Version) due to the apparently useless, pattern breaking gimmick, and the poorer Blade Base options.
To that end it was usually used for normal Smash Attack often unwound and using a small Blade Base like Normal Base (Wolborg 4 Version) and an overhanging Attack Ring like Triple Tiger.
More recently, WBO member Broyeeto discovered that with Final Clutch Base (Gaia Dragoon G Version) the EG has additional use, providing a late burst of engine spin as the Beyblade topples creating a unique type of Life After Death. Further experimentation found Final Clutch Base (Dranzer G Version) is able to do the same.
Using it in this setup (dubbed "V8 Combo") produces a unique type of Right Spin Spin-Stealing Attack which both gets a decent boost from the Engine Gear for late game KOs and the aforementioned late game Burst for LAD.
The LAD is quite significant - allowing V8 Combos to OS some Defensive Zombies in opposite spin - a major sticking point for other Right Spin SSA.
Alongside additional bulk, this makes them arguably the best Right Spin SSA option, though they struggle somewhat with Circle Survivor combos and can be knocked out by Driger V2 Customs.
By far the best standard Engine Gear and the only one to make competitive use of the Engine Gear gimmick - and of course, it was the only one that Hasbro didn't release a CEW version of.
