I started Beyblade not too long ago, and I need some advice on how to start.

I started Beyblade not too long ago, and I need some advice on how to start.

Welcome to the WBO! A few tips on how to start would be reading through the Wiki, watching videos about strategy or just tournament footage, like on the WBO YouTube account, or asking people here in the WBO threads. If you want some tips on what to buy, I'll give you the same recommendations that I gave someone else:

Spoiler (Click to View)

Cho-Z Triple Battle Set - Z Achilles 3 Dagger Destroy, Hazard Kerbeus 7 Atomic, and Wolborg 8 Bearing (Bearing, Atomic, and Destroy Drivers and the 7 Disk are all good)
Spriggan Requiem 0 Zeta (The Layer is still really good and can go in either spin direction. The 0 Disk is also used a ton)
Revive Phoenix 10 Friction (The armor can be swapped with Dead Phoenix's to become Perfect Phoenix, the heaviest Layer in the game. The 10 Disk is also good)
Dead Phoenix 0 Atomic (Aside from being part of Perfect Phoenix, this gives you an extra 0 Disk and an extra Atomic in case two of you are battling at the same time in a tournament or if one is broken or lost)
Cho-Z Achilles 00 Dimension (The Layer is really good for Attack, which I know from experience, and the Disk is the heaviest Core Disk. Its launcher is also one of the best ones because of its long string and because it works with both spin-directions)
Random Booster Vol. 12 Shelter Regulus 8' Bump Destroy' (Confirmed random boosters can be found on eBay and ever-wish. The Bump Frame and Destroy' Drivers are really good)
Random Booster Vol. 12 Hell Salamander Gravity Yielding (Same thing as Shelter Regulus for purchasing. The Hell Salamander layer is really good for left-spin, with Yielding being an okay Driver for same-spin matchups. Call it Heat Salamander at home if you want it to be PG)
Z Achilles 11 Xtend (None of the parts are that good out of the box, but the next item will show you why I recommended it)
Long Beylauncher Set (This set comes with a good right-spin only launcher, a grip, a power trigger to make sure you're holding on tightly enough, and the Xtend+ Chip. The Xtend+ Chip can be put on the Xtend Driver thanks to a tool that it comes with. Take off the normal Xtend's bottom part and put on the + Chip. This turns it into what is debatably the best Driver in the game)
Long Beylauncher L Set (This set comes with a good left-spin only launcher, a carabiner clip that doubles as a grip, a weight damper that shows you the tilt angle of the launcher, and the Proof Frame. The Proof Frame is pretty helpful for Stamina and Defense combos)
I'm not going to complicate things by adding GT Beys in to the equation, but if you still want some, I recommend getting Wizard Fafnir and Judgement Joker. If you want any combo suggestions, just ask.

Hey there, welcome! Are you getting into the plastic series, the metal series, or burst?

Practice your launch. Watch YouTube vids on different launch techniques. This is the best advice i can give you.

1. Prepare your wallet
2. Look through the winning combos thread to find the good parts
3. Buy the good parts
4. That's really all you need to do to be good at beyblade imo

practice launch stances different stances have there own advantages and disadvantages

For someone that's just starting out, a normal flat launch is the best thing to start off with. Later on, one would need to learn how to launch mobile Beys in a way that allows them to hit opponents in the middle. You can't just start launching in wild or unnatural ways until you get the basics down, or else there will never be constructive progress.

they might want to learn rush launch

SLEEP...EAT...BLADE...REPEAT

find the bey you are comfortable with. then practice controlling your launch angles and power


but especially.
