SATURDAY, AUGUST 29, 12PM
London's Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park - London, UK
This is at the park used for the London 2012 Olympic Games!
BURST FORMAT
From seemingly out of nowhere, the third generation of Beyblade has burst onto the scene!. London Bladers, this is your chance to get a first hand opportunity to try out the new Beyblades from this exciting, explosive new series, receive one for yourself to take home, and trade parts with other players to build the best Beyblade you can!
First 7 Participants get a brand new Beyblade to use and take home!
And listen, we're not asking for those products back at the end, no way! Those are really gifts for the community! The first 7 Bladers to arrive at the tournament will randomly pick one Layer, one Disk, and one Driver from the Beyblade Burst items shipped to the host, and leave with it at the end!!
What happens if there are more than seven players, do you ask? Quite simply, these first seven, lucky Bladers will be asked to share with the players who came in later to the event when they are not playing in an official battle with it already. Their Beyblade will be returned at the end, because the host will have written down who got what.
Mandatory $5 Entry Fee = More Beyblade Burst Events + Extra Credits!
To help subsidize the high cost of importing some of the new Beyblade Burst items from Japan, a mandatory £4 entry fee will be imposed on all Beyblade Bursts Onto The Scene events, regardless of whether or not a participant has a Blader Passport (if you wish to purchase a Blader Passport, the total cost would be £10 at a Beyblade Bursts Onto The Scene event), and there will be no prize reimbursement. We hope that everyone can understand this! The more funds we have, the more we can afford to do for the community in the future! We're actually going to be losing money despite this entry fee, and for those that receive a Beyblade, it will be much cheaper to get one that way than it would be to import one yourself (although we certainly hope you all do this after playing with them!). However, to show our appreciation for your cooperation and support in helping to fund the championship, all participants in Qualifier Series tournaments will receive the following:
- +1 Extra Credit to be used for prizes from our awesome Blader Rewards, on top of whatever they would have normally earned.
- New Passport Holders will earn +2 Extra Credits, rather than +1, 2 Face Boosters from the list above, rather than just 1.
"But what about my BeyPoints? I've never played Beyblade Burst!"
No problem! The first Beyblade Event in every region will not count towards the BeyPoint System. Think of it as an opportunity to experiment and just focus on having fun with the new series.
Of course however, there will also be Faces and Credits to play for.
What is Beyblade Burst?
Beyblade Burst is the brand new, third generation of Beyblade by TAKARA-TOMY! It is set to launch in July 2015 in Japan. If you are not familiar with Beyblade Burst, please take a look at the Beywiki article covering it: http://wiki.worldbeyblade.org/index.php?...lade_Burst
And be sure to check the Beyblade Burst - Bey News Forum Thread for the latest news on the series as it is announced.

As for the actual day, we are meeting at Stratford station. This is accessible by Greater Anglia trains, the DLR, TfL Rail and the London Underground Central Line. The spot will be just outside, where the entrance to Westfield Stratford is. Just follow signs for that. After over 7 people arrive, we will relocate to the venue. If you know you will be late, please send me a PM along with your mobile number so that I can guide you to the venue. I'll keep 4G on to keep checking the thread and PMs for late people.
My name's Alice and I'm bringing my friends son (James) to this tournament on Saturday, so thought I should create an account here so he can be listed as attending .
I used to play beyblades when I was younger, so am interested to see how the world of beyblades has evolved since then, as it's been a long time now!
(Edited, was going to ask whereabouts in the park the tournament will be based, but just found a comment on the thread saying where !)

Hi,
Yes if you create him an account and post in this thread that you are coming. Then he will be able to participate as well. Any question feel free to PM me.
Thanks

That's awesome. Have a great time!
Alchemyquinn Indeed the child must have his own account, but you still have time to help him set up one. And yes, since the park is huge, we are meeting at the Westfield Stratford exit of Stratford Station. It's just past the large ticket hall and we should be near the glass doors into the shopping mall.
As for the evolution of beyblade, I reckon you might have missed out on the whole Metal Fight Beyblade generation, but anyone at the event can tell you more about that.
Just like The Jamie did, anyone who knows they can't come or knows they will be late, please let us know here or via PM. Any questions about getting there or where the meeting spot is, please do not hesitate to ask either myself or xHB_SAUCEx via PM.

Actually, we do not delete accounts, so it probably still exists hah. If you already participated in tournaments in the past, it would be primordial to get you access back to your first account though. Do you remember what the username was ? If you want, we can continue discussing this in private messages.
Where exactly is the meeting point/venue for the tournament tomorrow.
Maybe 2 of my friends are joining me.

This is a burst even so yes you will need to use burst however don't worry if you don't have any I have plenty to lend out and if you get there early you get a free burst anyway! As for the meeting point this is at Stratford station and we will be going to the venue as a group. Feel free to PM me or Manicben if you might be late or lost. If your friends are coming and want to participate they will need to sign up to the WBO as well! hope you all make it!
And to everyone bringing non members who are participating, please get them registered asap and post their usernames here. It just helps with the admin a little.
Please remember the meeting point is the Westfield Stratford shopping centre exit of Stratford station. If you end up where the DLR is, you went the wrong way! Please PM either myself or xHB_SAUCEx if you feel you will get lost or will be late. If you want my phone number, please PM me and for those with mobile Internet, I'll keep checking this thread and PMs just in case.
See you all tomorrow!
By the way guys, I will be recording footage for my YouTube channel if that's okay with you guys, i just want to spread the word about Beyblade in the UK to get more participates at London tourneys!^-^
Another thing, so will there be an actual tournament with the burst beys when everyone gets a chance to test it out? because that would be awesome
Good luck with hosting Manicben and xHB Saucex! I'm sure you guys will do well
Where exactly will I find you at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park?
