1.Is actual gameplay that much different than normal Beyblade?
2.What about customizing?How does that work?
3.What's the best Beyblade to start out with?
If someone could answer me,that would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.
1. Besides the heavier recoil due to both blades being metal, not so much. The mechanics of the game still work the same. (...)
2. There are four parts, three which affect performance. The Wheel affects performance the most, as it's a means of attacking, weight, and balance. You could look at it as the AR and WD from the previous generation put together into one part. The Track determines height (lower Tracks are usually preferred over higher ones, as higher ones leaves big openings in your defenses). The Bottom adds movement patterns to the Beyblade. The fourth part, the Face, holds the Beyblade together, but doesn't have any in-battle effects.
So, for a Smash Attack Beyblade, you'd generally want a lighter (attack-oriented) Wheel, a medium to low Track, and some form of a flat-tipped Bottom. For a Defense Beyblade, you'd want a heavier (possibly rounded) Wheel, medium to low track, and the Defense or Ball Bottom.
3. Pegasis is a great all-around Beyblade, but although it's an attack type, it doesn't really "attack" in the sense that attack Beyblades do. The Wheel is very defensive, but because of the Flat bottom that comes with the Pegasis starter, the beyblade moves at high speeds. This odd combination knocks opponents out while lessening recoil on Pegasis.
Libra and Virgo are also great choices. Libra is one of the best Defensive Beyblades currently released, and Virgo is one of the better Stamina Beyblades.
