If you face Hasbro opponents they'd serve you well. Against TT opponents nothing on that list would stand much of a chance no matter how you build it.
Sadly, not much:
-Spriggan Requiem 0.Zt
-Dragoon Storm 5.Meteor Loop
-Nightmare Longinus. Ds
-Storm Spriggan K.U
I don't expect to face much in the way of the Cho-Z Layer System (given how most of the Blader tournaments in my area are mostly for kids, and I don't play competitively that often anyway) so it won't be too much of an issue for me.
Yeah, you can cobble together some decent combos out of these at least. Here's a few examples for ya.
Spriggan Requiem 0Cross Destroy (Top-tier for God/Switchstrike for spin stealing. Just make sure it spins the opposite direction of your opponent, which is usually left)
Alter Chronos/Blaze Ragnaruk 4 Zeta (Loop isn't all that good due to roller scraping, so Zeta's basically all you've got for pure Defense. It should stand up well enough against Xtreme-based attackers at least)
Sieg Xcaliber 1Meteor Unite/Zeta/Trans/Variable (Unite/Zeta/Trans can do similar things, giving you the choice of fast or stationary attacks based on its mode and how you bank your launch. Variable is for more all-out attacking)
Nightmare Longinus Meteor Variable (Unlike Sieg which can pull off stationary Attack combos, Nightmare Longinus can't do so well. Best to maximize its aggression)
Honestly, aside from getting more meta Cho-Z layers, you've got a decent compilation of God/Switchstrike parts. Really the only things you're missing is some powerful drivers like Atomic for Defense (Orbit makes a good substitute here) and Xtreme for Attack (for more consistent performance than Variable). Also the fact that you just can't really run pure Stamina well.

Guess I was wrong lol.
Iron is terrible for one main reason: It has a weakened spring lock that makes it incredibly prone to bursting regardless of what it's on. Metal Fight's Metal Flat doesn't have that issue, which is why it worked out there but not here.
Cincinnati-based Organizer, and owner of every single currently released TT Burst bey part in at least one color. Hard to think of anything I don't have from MFB either...
