Layer Weight - Retsu

Retsu (烈) is a Layer Weight released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Gatchinko Layer System. It debuted in Japan with Booster Slash Valkyrie Blitz Power Retsu on March 16, 2019.

==Description==

Retsu is an asymmetrical Layer Weight, as one side of it has two hexagons, and the other side has one in the middle. However, it is not as imbalanced as one would think, and serves a usable niche for attack combinations if Goku and Diabolos 1 are not available, or being used on other combos in the same Deck. It weighs more than Ten and Sen, and has a decent weight overall, allowing it to be fairly useful if you need a Gatchinko Layer Weight for attack combinations.

==Overall==

Retsu is a fairly good layer weight for attack in the absence of Goku or Diabolos 1. It is not a must-have in Gatchinko Layer combinations, but it is a welcome addition to any blader's collection. However, the advent of heavier and better layers that don't use Layer Weights renders all of them outclassed. Therefore, Retsu is recommended for collection purposes only in Standard format.
