Quick question is there going to be deck format play or 5G during the tournament?
is annual Classic a classic tournament, and is any of these needed to get high ranked to be able to join the next?
Love what you’re doing here in FL Conce7 ! Can’t wait to see how this turns out. Look forward to participating in your next event down in Miami. Good luck to all the Bladers attending!!!

There will be deck format for the final top 8 rounds.

No and no. It will be a standard burst. Anyone will be able to join.

[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Hello brother. Thanks for your concern. It is a valid one. Before even posting this tournament, we have taken, discussed, and planned the strategy to accommodate such volume.[/font]

[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]The Palm ballroom is over 2,700 sq. ft. with an additional foyer of 896 sq. ft. In pre-Covid days, this room holds up to 250 people. In post-Covid days the hotel has been strictly reserving this room for 100 people or less when considering long tables and seating. [/font]

[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Since we are not doing any formal event such as weeding or presentations, we do not need 50 long tables with chairs to accommodate 100 people.This gives us plenty of open space to place the stadiums and free play area while accommodating up to 100 people and following proper distancing. Plus, the hotel is already prepared for this type of events. I honestly do not think we will get 100 people in this event, it is a long shot, considering that 18+/adult players always go alone and a lot of parents in past events have multiple kids participating. We will be fine. [/font]

Great to have you brother!
Do you guys think its a good idea to have a specific table where participants can bring beyblades or parts to trade. Is just an idea to see if there is any interest.

I’m confused about that too. All I can possibly think is the oppurtunity for a free hotel room which they said in the bio.
