==Description==
Takara Tomy's Kerbeus is a circular shaped Energy Layer designed for Defense. Kerbeus' center, as the name states, depicts a 3-headed dog-like monster named Cerberus spitting flames. Two of the heads represented by the colored plastic underneath the transparent casing are located on one side, while the third is located on the opposite side. Theoretically, this would leave the Energy Layer unbalanced, but in reality the effect is so minuscule that it shouldn't be considered a fault in competitive play. Kerbeus' rim has 16 protrusions, with half of the protrusions being larger. In theory, this characteristic would grind the opponent's Layer, but in reality it has the reverse effect and that makes it prone to loss by Out-Spin and the uneven surface adds recoil. Kerbeus does, however, have decent Stamina and Defence abilities granted by its circular shape but is outclassed by layers such as Deathscyther, Odin, Neptune and Wyvern for Defence and Stamina Combinations in the Burst Classic Format.
==Hasbro Version(Kerbecs)==
The Hasbro version Kerbecs features a similar design but much stronger burst resistance compared to its Takara-Tomy counterpart, making it a top-tier choice for Stamina Combinations in the Burst Classic Format.
==Use in Stamina Combinations==
Kerbecs can be used in Stamina Combination Kerbecs Gravity/Heavy/Spread/Knuckle Yard-S/Absorb-S/Liner/Liner-S. The circular shape of Kerbecs combined with the high stamina of Gravity/Heavy/Spread/Knuckle and Yard-S/Absorb-S/Liner/Liner-S allows this combo to outspin many competitive combos however, like all Stamina Combinations it is weak against Attack Combinations.
==Overall==
The Takara-Tomy Kerbeus is severely outclassed and see no competitive usage thus it can be skipped for competitive usage.
The Hasbro Kerbecs is a top-tier Stamina Energy Layer and a Must-Have for competitive usage.
