ChoZ Bladers Choose Limited
2000 Shorefield Rd, Silver Spring, MD 20902
Meet under the pavillion with bright orange safety cones
We are setting up near the LEFT parking lot, at Pavilion A!
Host: The Supreme One
Location: This event will be held outdoors at Wheaton Regional Park. Please note the address in the description as the park itself is quite large and typing the park name into Google Maps will lead you in the wrong direction.
Time: As the tournament will start promptly at 12:00pm, please plan to arrive around 11:30am when registration will begin. Registration will close at 11:50am. Confirming your attendance on the WBO event page does not substitute for registration at the venue.
Prizes: Due to WBO funds currently being put on hold, prizes will not be offered at this event (fortunately this also means no entry fees!)
COVID-19 Precautions READ THIS BEFORE CONFIRMING YOUR ATTENDANCE:
This event will cooperate with the Montgomery County Phase 2 Reopening Guidelines, which require the following:
- Social distancing of 6 feet when possible
- Signs and markings indicating 6 feet gaps
- Face coverings for everyone over age 2 (Please note that players who do not bring their own face covering will be unable to compete)
- Guidance and training on the rules
- Disinfectants applied to common used surfaces
In addition, we respectfully request that all parents and siblings of tournament participants remain away from the playing area and avoid close interactions with tournament equipment and individuals outside of their immediate family.
Other Information:
Please come prepared. It is helpful for both hosts and judges if all participants bring at least one Takara Tomy or Hasbro-manufactured Beyblade of their own and more than one launcher when possible. Additionally, parents of children under the age of 13 must be present for the duration of the event, as tournament end times can be difficult to estimate, and we would hate for someone to be left behind once it is over.
Be aware of your belongings. We'd advise users to please, please look after your stuff. While yes this is a Beyblade tournament and we're not suggesting that any of us would attempt to take each other's stuff it is still happening at a public venue where other people (who may not be so friendly) are going to be present as well. Of course, if you see a personal belonging lying around bring it up any of the judges so we can return it to the right person. Your co-operation is appreciated!
All players must arrive on-time. The tournament will begin no later than 1:00 PM and is expected to run for about 3 hours, though if there is a large turnout it may take longer. Please plan accordingly. If you do not arrive at the scheduled start time, you risk being excluded from the tournament. The software we use to run our events–Challonge–does not allow us to add in extra participants once the tournament has started.
If you know in advance that you will be late, please post in this thread or contact someone at the event and depending on the circumstances we can perhaps still include you if we know you will arrive soon.

Have fun at the tournament y’all. I can’t wait for the Winning Combos.
I guess we'll be calling Beymaster Seven and Beymaster One on the announcements?

Ask about that in the limited tournament format threads.
Lots of stuff came out during Cho-Z that isn't allowed in this format. Mostly layers.
You do know that Xtend+ is one of the most overpowered stamina tips in existence, yes? That it's inclusion in this format would make things boring and predictable? Hasbro Bearing came out during God but that's banned too. Similar reasons.
In short, no, neither are permitted, though I would encourage that the rulebook is read properly to avoid questions like this going forward. If anyone thinks it is unclear, let me know and we can look at whether there's a better way to present this

Because Buster is terrible and poses no overwhelming threat to most God layers, and Z Achilles has decent stamina but poses no overwhelming threat to most God layers and is also fragile.
There was actual testing done on these over a period of months.
And once again, please use a different thread for "Is this layer permitted, why/why not" questions. May I recommend the https://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-Announc...Discussion thread, or perhaps https://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-WBO-Random-Thoughts thread?
