Maybe we should make a video on how to use it correctly?
Some are faulty, others are not, they are inconsistent, and hardly rival the power of the Beylauncher, give that it can go in left spin.
I still say no.

Ahh, I see what he was referring to now, thank you LTXIII
Edit: ^No problem Rai =D

He was refering to RUL, not RGL

That seems like more of a task for the whole community then just one thread. If you really want to make a video, I would suggest talking to some mods/admins about what you want to do, and how you should present it to the community. Smile

When I get time I'll discuss it haha.
Isn't the way to use it correctly just... use it exactly like a Beylauncher?
Yep.
Nothing more, than pulling the string a few times.
Rev Up is a bit...what is a good word? Non-cooperative at few times?

Rev-Up is difficult for tourney use, as it can be hard to time when your bey will launch. And sometimes the amount of times you "Rev-Up" varies. What is more, the button function is completely useless, but some people still use them. The way Hasbro conveys the use of RUL is rather incorrect, which could justify a "How to use a Rev Up Launcher" video if one desired.

The way I have seen it, it usualy takes 2 or 3 good pulls, and on the last pull, release like you would a beylauncher, and your launch should be a great.
I personally think RUL is incosistant if you launch it correct or not, but we are talking about testing here and not tournaments so people can just do the launch over. I wish Hasbro would make more decent stuff its like picking a american car over a import. we all know which will breakdown first lol
I'm just wondering, what are the Hasbro stadium top-tier customs? For testing, of course.
There's none really at the moment, as we couldn't really get that much of stable testing.

It depends on what type ypu are looking for. A tier list was going to be contstructed, but the game evolved to quickly, and no one commited to the project, and I am to busy to do it alone. As kbuno said, not much consistancy was ever found to make a good tier list anyway.
So, if there hasn't ever been any consistency, we can go on for pages rambling, fighting, and discussing what's good and not, and getting maybe one or two tests every couple pages, don't you think this thread doesn't really serve a purpose?
In the whole time this thread has been up (6 months) we haven't evolved hardly at all. The metagame has creeped along, mostly just because everyone (don't worry, I'm not excluding myself from this group) never got any testing done, and we just discussed. Nothing more. We've tried (twice I remember, and maybe even more) to get a tier list going, but we never did. Both times we tried it, it was swallowed by a flood of posts that was just idle chit chat and discussion of what we think would work. You might say that this is the exact same in the general Metagame outside of this - it isn't.
Honestly, this thread had potential. Now it has none.
Tbh, I don't see a point in this thread anymore.
Yeah, why are we even caring about launchers if we aren't testing?

I say if there are no tests currently tested, this thread should be closed.
Exactly what I was thinking.
If anything, keep it closed until Metal Fury hits, and then we can actually start a decent thread, with proper testing, simplified rules, ect.
I'll leave it up to Leon Tempest.
I think the answer to all of our problems is the creation of a tier list thread. Without one, this is all amouting to nothing. I wouldnt say this thread has no potential, but it has definatly lost some of its luster. What started out as a great thread has turned into a shell of its former self, and I take full responsibility.

That said, as of this very moment, construction of the tier list will begin effective immediatly. All interested in assisting can contact me through pm.

In the interest of keeping the thread alive and with purpose for the time being, I can have tests done for Gravity and RS by this thursday, because as of this wednesday, rifle team practice will have ended, and I will have some free time before my spring job starts.

There is no putting this off any longer. We have work to do people Wink
i think u should allow all hasbro stadiums cause wont all stadiums need to be used for many situations i use the bolt blast stadium and all my beys work fine if u allow use to use the bolt blast stadium i will test rock but i will use unicorno insted
I also thought that before, but that would require a list for every single stadium, and stadiums with horrible characteristics will perform less than optimal.

There is no need whatsoever to allow the noticably worse Stadiums for use.
The normal metagame doesnt allow every stadium, so why should we?

Refering to your sig,


Edit: Hasbro bladers, forgive me for not responding to some of your pms and not updating the OP. I have been swamped with work this week, and practice has been extended till thursday. Therefore, all the updates, the start of the tier list, and my tests with Gravity and RS, shall begin Friday
I'm trying to find a good place to buy an MXS, so if I get my hands on it, HASBRO METAGAME UPDATE MADNESS.
ok question I dont see that its on the list unless it has a different name, but is the Dragons Den stadium good to use or has no1 used it to find out?
