The heavy ring provides 3 with a Centralized Weight Distribution (CWD), akin to Yell and Central. In addition to the '3' shapes, 3 features a heavy ring in the center.

Each side features three small protrusions, akin to Knuckle and 8, which is looped and molded into the shape of a '3'.

Unlike previous Cho-Z Layers and like other Layers with the 'Cho-Z' prefix, Cho-Z Valkyrie is incompatible with a Level Chip.įorge Disc - 3 Main article: Forge Disc - 3ģ, unlike every other odd numbered Core Disc released before it, is symmetrical and elliptical in shape in order to facilitate a Frame. As such, Cho-Z Valkyrie almost requires the use of the three pointed Zenith Disc to concentrate weight at the points of contact to be effective with the gimmick activated. Due to these factors and the shape of the wings, Cho-Z Valkyrie performs well in Attack Combinations. However, the wings of Cho-Z Valkyrie show greater Attack potential when the 'Cho-Z Wings' are not active as they cover up a more acute point of contact and when the 'Cho-Z Wings' are active, the new point of contact is much more obtuse, reducing recoil. The Layer's size and the inclusion of metal makes Cho-Z Valkyrie heavier than most God Layers and improves Attack Potential by increasing the weight of the Layer, granting higher inertia that increases both Knock-Out and Burst Attack as well as increasing the Layer's Burst Resistance as the high inertia resists teeth skipping, a property that compliments the tall teeth of Cho-Z Valkyrie.

However, due to the bistable mechanism, Cho-Z Valkyrie requires rather extreme spin speeds for the gimmick to activate which may be difficult for some Bladers. Due to the bistable mechanism, the wings and tab do not retract when spin speeds are low and must be manually pushed in after every match, the mechanism also allows the gimmick to work as intended.īecause of Cho-Z Valkyrie's triangular design, only the upper-left wing will move the tab with the other two being purely aesthetic. This Burst Stopper then obstructs the Disc from moving during impact, preventing the loss of the last click and preventing the Cho-Z Valkyrie Combination from Bursting. Cho-Z Valkyrie also features a gimmick the Layer features an anti-Bursting mechanism called the 'Cho-Z Awakening System'.Īt high spin velocity, the centrifugal force activates a bistable mechanism, revealing red sub-wings called the 'Cho-Z Wings' and in turn extending a 'Burst Stopper' tab located in the left groove meant to fit the prongs of the Disc. However, Cho-Z Valkyrie features less metal than most other Cho-Z Layers and most of its weight comes from its size. As part of the Cho-Z Layer System, Cho-Z Valkyrie features metal in its design in this case, concentrated behind each wing and in the center. Like its predecessors, Cho-Z Valkyrie features three large wings as the primary points of contact, granting the Layer high Knock-Out and Burst Attack potential. Takara Tomy's Cho-Z Valkyrie is an Attack Type Energy Layer, with the center featuring a feathered, armored face facing forward, akin to its predecessor Winning Valkyrie, meant to represent the Layer's namesake Odin's handmaidens of Norse mythology, albeit changed to match the anime's rendition an armored knight.
