Yeah, I haven’t been into Beyblade in 2 years, but with the new-ish, not that recent advent of X, my interest has been piqued yet again. So where do I start with the X metagame? It’s still in its nascent stages, and the second layer system or “Line” in X has been released. I also want to know how current X Beys stack up to Burst ones…

by the way, on a side note: I got embarrassed looking at my old posts with carp grammar. But then again, I was 12, a rambunctious, annoying, and borderline moronic carping 7th grader

Welcome back! Some meta beys are Whale Wave, Wizard Rod, Phoenix Wing, Cobalt Dragoon, Sliver Wolf, Dran Buster, TyrannoBeat, Aero Pegasus, Cobalt Drake, Shark Edge, Leon Crest. beybxdb.com is a great place to learn about the Meta or just about X in general and is always fairly up to date. We are starting to come out of the nascent stage as we are getting more gimmicky beys and have recently gotten left spin and are going to be getting rubber by the end of the month. Could you eleborate on what you meant by "stack up" just a bit confused my bad.

For the side note. Totally relatable. I think we all used to be like that haha! Anywho please feel free to PM me if you have any other questions for Beyblade! I'd be happy to answer and help you get back into Beyblade!

Edit: A great place to start would probably be BX-07 Start Dash Set or BX-17 Battle Entry Set or Hasbro's Beyblade X Xtreme Battle Set (Hasbro's quality is now identical to TT's quality. Besides the QR code on Hasbro's you can't tell em apart.

Thanks dude, you’re a real help for informing me about the meta Beys for this generation. Also, by “stack up”, I meant how X Beys fare in comparison to Burst Beys in battle, and I’m sorry about being vague, I should have specified that I wanted to see how X Beys stack up to Burst Beys from Cho-Z onwards. Also, since we finally have left-spin and are getting rubber in due time, the first overly-spammed Stamina combo is here! And that’s great that Hasbro’s quality is equal to TT’s so far, and I hope that equality endures as more gimmicky Beys are released. I also have heard about a rubber flat Bit that was released recently, “Rubber Accel” was it? Attack combos now can maintain banking patterns more effectively with the advent of this Bit, I would assume.

We....we don't talk about Rubber Accel... Anyway though yeah, Rubber Accel isn't the best Bit sadily with the way its made it loses WAY to much stamina after an Xtreme Dash. It's definitely fun but doesn't seem to be completely viable.

That’s fair, the Xtreme Dash gimmick makes stamina ever more important in this day and age.

Yeah, with the way RA is built it rides above the Xtreme Line so the rubber part isn't touching the ground which lets the bit last longer and not wear down so fast. but because of that, when it finishes its Xtreme, its stamina gets heavily tanked from the friction of the rubber hitting the stadium.

---

That makes it basically useless in competitive play at that point. This generation is probably the worst generation for rubber tips

Sadily unless they do something different it looks like that will be the case

Edit: Samurai Saber also seems to be meta currently. Forgot to add that.

It’s sad for me because rubber drivers were my favorite in Burst…

---

Maybe metal flat tips can actually be meta in this generation….

Thanks, and yeah, I’d be down for a battle, if there’s any NYC area tournaments…

NYC has tournaments often I think.

My dearest Frisk, you are heavily underestimating the potential within RA. In all seriousness I have actually seen people online make some pretty fierce combos. One that seemed very intriguing was Dran Buster 2-60RA, overall RA is good if your main goal is to kill enemy beys as fast as you can, not too shabby of a strat. If we take something like spin direction force for example, its important to choose a bey with an overall shape that is round and not too aggressive if you are looking for a more defensive build with RA but if you want that instakill, definitely Dran Buster

Also PikaBeyblade, it is nice to see a fellow northeast coast Blader around my age. There are quite the amount of Beyblade tournaments within NY depending where you are from. In NYC there are a heavy amount of tournaments but I am not too sure about upper state NY, however there are also Southern Jersey tournaments along with Pennsylvania tournaments for you to attend

I am not sure if you know the basics of X beys but just in case I will break it down for you. I will use my favorite bey Phoenix Wing 9-60GF as example. Phoenix Wing is the Blade of the bey, which is mainly the main part of the bey that collides directly with opponents, its performance varies depending on its shape and weight. 9-60 is the ratchet, the middle layer of the bey that determines the bey's movement/balance of center of gravity not to mention the burstability of the bey (less easy to hit contact points the better, for example 4-XX ratchets are disliked due to how big its blades are causing it to be easy to burst). Gear Flat is the bit, the shaft tip part determines the movement of the Bey, dash performance and burst resistance depend on the type of bit, defense and stamina bits have easy burstability but attack bits have higher defense

Due to your age, not to mention the area you are from, as of right now you most likely can only get up to Hasbro Wave 3 Beyblades. So overall the main beys from the three waves I recommend are Soar Phoenix/Phoneix Wing 9-60GF, Wand Wizard/Wizard Rod 5-70DB, Buster Dran/Dran Buster 1-60A, Tyranno Beat 4-70Q, and I know Frisk recommended Shark Edge/Keel Shark, but if you have more money I heard Optimus Primal has 1 more gram of weight over Keel Shark. Also a lot of good Bits in the meta involve things such as Rush, Ball, Point, Low Flat, and Level. You can get Rush from the Hasbro Xtreme Battle Set which in fact should be the first X product you buy since its highly useful. Low Flat and Point has a few ways to be obtained but the easiest way is from the Bite Croc VS Unicorn Sting Battle Pack, here you get Low Flat, Point, Bite Croc which is basically a Keel Shark reprint, and Unicorn Sting which is a solid B Tier bey in my personal opinion. Ball can be obtained from Wizard Arrow 4-80B. If we are talking Meta Ratchets, then the main ones used are 1-XX, 3-60, 7-70, 9-70, 9-60, and a few other ratchets I may have forgotten

I do not know what else to add so I will leave here. If you have any other questions, do not be scared to reply to me and ask me them

bro why they delete my post it was very legal.......JK I was Jk pls don't ban me.....

Anywayyy I recommend any bit except for silver wolf's the free spin does appeal to me really it does but....it doesn't really act well. They should have learned from the liner driver about free spin drivers.

Check the winning combos page. FreeBall is an exceptional Bit.

Edit: maybe not exceptional but it is a good one to use.

It depends on the combo honestly. From what I have seen the main reason people don't really use FB as frequently is due to the high chance of burstability. But honestly free spin is pretty useful depending on which bey you uses, especially if you look at the winning combos page

Why da yapping?
Alr maybe I underestimate it but Claw Leon's is FUSION ON STEROIDS. Let's be honest here ok?

Edit: Maybe not like fusion but is fusion
