Hasbro's new Triangle Stadium was something I was pretty confident in before trying it out for myself. On a budget and torn between whether I'd buy a Valtryek V2 or a Kerbeus K2, I came to the quick decision of ''Who needs the Beyblades? The Stadium is where it's at.'' As a result, the Triangle Stadium was the purchase I had made. I was filled with immediate regret. I did, however, decide to keep it. Here is an in depth look at Hasbro's Triangle Stadium.

Appearance:
The Triangle Stadium features six hexagons: one on each side of the Stadium pockets. While they are a part of the design, they do not affect Beyblades' performance. Its' length measures in at roughly around 38 centimeters; 2 larger than the 36 of the B-09 BeyStadium Standard Type.

Launching:
Regardless of the type of Launcher used and how many attachments are added on, launching regularly isn't any more complicated than doing so with a standard BeyStadium. When banking with aggressive Drivers like Accel and Xtreme, however, you must be cautious when doing so. When launching at full power with them, you run risks of running into a Stadium pocket because of how close the Tornado Ridge is to the three. This is one of the biggest downfalls the Triangle Stadium has.
Because of this, weak launching also becomes super risky. Here are the results of a few quick comparison rounds I had did between the B-09 BeyStadium Standard Type and the Triangle Stadium. Weak launching is much more effective in the B-09 BeyStadium Standard Type.

Closing Remarks:
Overall, I'm happy I made the purchase and stuck with it. I am personally not a fan of the design and I do believe Hasbro could have done a better job. The Triangle Stadium is successful in some areas but only to an extent; I feel much more comfortable sticking to the B-09 BeyStadium Standard Type. What do you guys think?
