Based on the episode titles the bladers that are competing are: Aiga, Pax, Hyuga, Hikaru, Pri, and Bell. Because considering how many episodes that we have with the amount of bladers that's in QS. I can't see them adding too many.

I'm curious what the prize for the tournament is. It seems like Valt isn't participating so I'm curious if the prize is a challenge match against him.

I kinda doubt it because the final episode is already going to be Pax vs Bell, so slipping in Valt vs Bell wouldn't make much sense. On top of that Bell has already beaten Valt 3 times and can challenge him at almost any moment. So I don't see Valt being a Prize, but I can see Pax wanting to win the tournament to challenge Valt and Shu kinda like how Phi,Arthur, and lane wanted to show off and dominate before going for the two Legends (Valt and Shu).

That's possible too. We'll see on Monday for sure.

Here is the screenshot of the episode, which shows Pri sitting in a chair looking worry or something:

Pri redemption episode! A episode ago she was the runt of the litter. A episode later She made Flame Pandora by herself, simultaneously bursts Kitt and Ranzo in the same battle and burst Drum all in one episode. What a rebound for her, not even Bel could burst Drum(tho in his defense he only got to battle it once). Easily her best ep.

Episode 22:

Theres really not much to say with this episode. This episode acts as a pretty good start to the tournament. Pri created Flame Pandora, and she got a win against both Ranzo and Kitt in a battle royal to decide who gets to enter and surprisingly its mainly all the protags. Pri also gets her rematch with Drum which she ends up winning.
Overall a ok episode 7/10

As happy as I am for Pri... I think they gave her a bit too much of a buff this episode. I get that this episode was gonna be her last time beating anybody, and she just made Flame, and the season was ending anyways; but bursting Kitt and Ranzo at the same time then just outright sweeping Drum? I guess he wasn't holding back way back in ep 5. Or again, Pri just got too much of buff here.. Bel couldn't get a clean win on Hyuga let alone one battle in the entire season where he wins in round 1 but they blessed Pri with two back to back. And that's in addition to her 3 clean wins on Bel... Bel shoulda gotten at least one win like this and Hyuga woulda been perfect, or it coulda been Pri. Idk.(Ranzo doesn't count, Bel literally always beats him). Okay small rant over. Wasn't trying to ruin(no pun intented)the mood.

I like that they updated the opening narration's visuals. I didn't expect Flame Pandora to be treated more like an upgrade, but it does make sense. The Lodestar Battle Tournament's lineup is pretty predictable, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The Drum vs Pri matchup was actually quite entertaining. The reference to Drum vs Lodin was tight, and of course, Pax is still being a weirdo. I'm excited to see where the tournament goes from here.

It’s weird that Disney XD didn’t release the air dates for episodes 22 - 26 in America. Any clue when they are gonna air?

All the episodes aired iirc. Like it was a back to back marathon.
