All WBO tournaments are run using an industry standard tournament software called Challonge.

That’s why we employ some of the most competitive and standard tournament systems used for competitive games around the world: Round Robin, Swiss, and Double Elimination. We also offer solutions for smaller events (4-7 participants) through our Club Format and a highly strategic, exciting spin on the classic Beyblade Deck Format for the final stages of our larger events that offers more player agency than the system used by TAKARA-TOMY.
