[Hasbro Stadium] Bolt Blast - Metal Masters

Measurements:
Diameter of inner circle: 28 cm.
Ridge: 1 cm thick.

Quote:This stadium is, in essence, a copy of the [[Pegasus Thunder Whip Stadium]], save for a few subtle alterations in design and appearance. The first being the obvious differences in color scheme and aesthetic design. And the second being the raised ridge circling the middle of the stadium.

The design in the middle is of a thunderbolt spiraling down to the center of the stadium with the image of a Storm Capricorne (wait, that could be wrong). Accompanying the spiraling thunderbolt is a raised ridge that also spirals around in a similar fashion. The purpose of this gimmick is to lure the Beyblades into this vortex and do drag them to the center to make contact. On top of this, the ridges affect the balance of any blade that is traversing them due to the uneven surface.

The small slope and the ridges in the middle render the sliding shoot useless. As well as any attack types, which is the case for all Hasbro MFB stadiums. The customs used in this stadium should be stamina-based as it usually always ends up in a battle of out-spinning the opponent. Bladers should veer towards more broader bottoms as it helps in gliding over the ridges.

All in all, this stadium should not be purchased unless players have a thing for gimmicked arenas. But as usual, the overall non-competitiveness of this stadium makes it illegal for WBO sanctioned play.

You do not mention what works well in it.

But okay, re-wording/elaboration needed? Or ...

Quote:==Combos Recommendation==
Any low Stamina customization should do well in this stadium. Defense types are not particularly required since Attack combos are nullified in this stadium, therefore it will often only be a battle of survival. And more rounded bases are favored as they easily can glide over the ridges and do not get "caught" as easily in the groove.

Yes, give actual examples of Bottoms, examples of Stamina Metal Wheels, perhaps specifically from a Hasbro metagame because nobody sane with access to foreign parts would use that stadium anyway.

Tips such as WD, SD, D, MB, B are viable in addition to low stamina tracks with little to no gimmicks, such as 145, 130 and AD145. Metal wheels chosen should be either Hades, Twisted or Earth.

Metagame knowledge = close to non-existant.

Since the Pegasus Thunder Whip Stadium's article is now up, it will be easier to get this draft done. Does anybody have suggestions ?

This stadium is, in essence, a copy of the [[Pegasus Thunder Whip Stadium]], save for a few subtle alterations in design and appearance. The first is the obvious differences in color scheme and aesthetic design, while the second consists of the raised ridge circling the middle of the stadium.

The design in the middle is of a thunderbolt spiraling down to the center of the stadium with the image of a Storm Capricorne. Accompanying the spiraling thunderbolt is a raised ridge that also spirals around in a similar fashion. The purpose of this gimmick is to lure the Beyblades into this vortex and drag them to the center to make contact or keep one stuck there. On top of this, the ridges affect the balance of any Beyblade that is traversing them due to the uneven surface.

==Customization Advice==
The small slope and the ridges in the middle render the Sliding Shoot useless, as well as any Attack types, which is the case for all Hasbro MFB stadiums. The customs used in this stadium should consequently be stamina-based, as it usually always ends up being a battle of out-spinning the opponent. Bladers should veer towards broader Bottoms like B and WB as [b­]they[/b] help in gliding over the ridges and not losing all of their balance.

==Conclusion==
Like for all Hasbro BMF stadiums and all the gimmick arenas, this BeyStadium is considered illegal for WBO-sanctioned play because the lack of exits, the lack of a proper slope, and the existence of the spiral-shape ridge hinder the game, making it unfair for most Beyblade types, especially Attack combos. For these reasons, this stadium should not be purchased.

Which abbreviation is used for Metal Fight Beyblade: MFB or BMF?

And, the first sentence in the conclusion seems like a run-on sentence to me ^^"

Other than that, the article seems OK but I think better pictures are required. So I'll see about that (∩_∩)

MFB is the abbreviation and I think from personal experience that B/BS work best in it but I don't know. Also beyblades tend not to stay in the pockets.
Tips like CS usually get stuck on the ridge and stay perfectly still until another bey hits it.
Also some beys can spin in a pocket and not scrape the walls.
