To help subsidize the high cost of flying/busing the qualifiers to Toronto, a mandatory $5 entry fee will be imposed on all Qualifier Series tournaments, regardless of whether or not a participant has a Blader Passport (if you wish to purchase a Blader Passport, the total cost would be $15 at a Qualifier Series tournament), and there will be no prize reimbursement apart from the travel expenses for the winner. We hope that everyone can understand this! The more funds we have, the bigger this championship will be! However, to show our appreciation for your cooperation and support in helping to fund the championship, all participants in Qualifier Series tournaments will receive the following:
- +1 Extra Credit to be used for prizes from our awesome Blader Rewards, on top of whatever they would have normally earned.
- One of these Face Boosters:

this is exciting
We're leaving in a few minutes. So excited!!!
I'll be selling a bunch of stuff (including a BB-19 Attack stadium for $40), so if you guys want Beyblades bring some money.
Well, you should bring some anyway, because the pizza place down the plaza is ridiculously good. XD

Your bringing a bb-19 attack type stadium never heard of those before, is that the hasbro model?
In any case, I'm glad to hear this went well! Congratulations to geetster99 for winning the qualifier. I'm looking forward to seeing the video and hearing about what combos were used.

I still have your Omega, do you want me to ship it to you or give it to you at the next tournament?
MD WON IT!
*Depressed*
I got completely smoked, haha. Got to the finals pretty easily, but after that... Ugh.
I beat Stars and *Ginga* though, LOL (actually got shredded by NC bladers, funnily enough).
Well, it was totally great to play you guys! Getting tossed from the top 20 for 3 weeks won't be so bad.
#ComebackApril4th!!
Atleast Team GT came close, taking 2nd and 3rd =)
This tournament was super fun haha. It was treating meeting the NC crew, all of them are great people haha. I tied for 4th, which is the best I've done in a while lol. All in all great tournament.
Scythe B:D though, it was everywhere.

Bring it to the next tournament. i should be at the one in April.
It doesn't surprise me that geester won again. He took battle scars early, but pretty much dominated. I went 50-50. would've loved to have won to get a winning record. Did TBD or stars lose their last rounds? If so, I coulda tied for 2nd in that block.
Unfortunately at the end NC vs. MD is a tie
who won ?

My heart was beating all day. It was nice to see the Maryland crew and all the NC regulars. It got really excited when me and Stormscorpio played to see who would play geetster in a tie breaker and my combo looked like it was going to lose and stood up from leaning down and I won. I believe I went 10-5 so not bad especially since limited is probably the format I do worst in. Can't wait for it to be processed. Although I mad bad plays in final 2 I still feel I stepped it up today and did the best I could.Spoiler (Click to View)
