>>11252280more or less, gear point and gear flat actually have some usefullness in their designs, though Gear Flat is kinda niche to use because of its ultra low stamina and its similar how you suppose to use rubber accel except launching at full strength (rubber accel is better with a medium launch with a slight right or left tilt with some forward tilt) and gear point is better with a slight tilt and full hard launch (it also depends on what mold you get too like point bits, the better the point is more pronounced the better).
while gear needle and gear ball fails because since both are low burst resistance bits, they have a very high chance of bit bursting, their gimmick was that it was for stamina and defense beys to counter using the x line, but as mentioned bit burst risk is very high.
