From seemingly out of nowhere, the third generation of Beyblade has burst onto the scene! Bladers of NYC, this is your chance to test your mettle, try out Beyblades from the exciting, explosive new series that is Beyblade Burst, build the best Beyblade you can, and receive one for yourself to take home!


"What's Beyblade Burst?"
Beyblade Burst is the brand new, third generation of Beyblade by TAKARA-TOMY! The Beyblades in this series feature a new "Burst Gimmick," in which they explode in battle! Only the strongest Bey will stay intact while the other separates!

Beyblade Burst only launched this past July in Japan, so it's still fairly new and exclusive. If you're not familiar with the new series, then please take a minute to look at the Beyblade Burst - Bey News Forum Thread.

7 Lucky Participants will get a new Beyblade to take home!
And listen, we're not asking for these products back, no way! They're really gifts to the community! Unlike at previous Beyblade Bursts Onto The Scene events, everyone who attends this event will have the chance to borrow, build, and win a free Beyblade Burst item! The Bladers who place 1st-3rd will receive the following:
  • First Place: First pick at the 7 stock Beyblades provided to the host + B-02 BeyLogger + Light Launcher
  • Second Place: Second pick at the stock Beyblades + Light Launcher
  • Third Place: Third pick at the stock Beyblades + Light Launcher
The remaining 4 stock Beyblades will be raffled off among everyone else at the end of the tournament. That means everyone, regardless of wherever they may be travelling from, will have an equal chance at getting a new Beyblade at this event!!

To best keep track of the provided Beyblade Burst items throughout this event, all borrowed parts must be returned to a judge immediately following the completion of every BeyBattle. This way, anyone who may be about to play an official match will always have access to any and all of the parts in the pool, and we will always be able to guarantee nobody accidentally walks away with any of them!

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 $5 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 $15 at a Beyblade Bursts Onto The Scene event), and there will be no prize reimbursement. We hope that everyone will 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 event, all participants in Beyblade Bursts Onto the Scene 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 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, as always, there will be Faces and Credits to play for. Wink

Glad to hear it. Smile
If it rains will we move the tournament to a different location? It shows a 60 percent chance of rain.

If it rains we'll either move underneath Bethesda or move the date forward up a weekend. I'll make that decision as we get closer to the date.
Okay i will confirm by Thursday if i'm going.

Please move the location instead of the date. I live 5 hours away so I have had to plan this far in advance, I probably couldn't make another date without a lot of notice. Obviously you need to do what is best for the most people though.

I'm in favor of this idea possibly try a hobby shop in the area

You got it. We'll move under Bethesda.
Awesome, you just made my day. Thanks guys
Well, the attendees list is kind of small so I wouldn't want to do anything to decrease it.
My gf will play if we need one more to get the required number of people. She isn't bad

We will definitely get enough people. I have a good chance of going.
The more the merrier!
IDK if my brother (~Thunder~) will come he's kind of unpredictable, but you can put him as a Possible for now.
Ok new question, is there free play w/ 2nd gen? I know there will be burst stadiums but is it still possible?
My friend is coming and she has yet to make an account

And yeah I'm pretty sure if some one brings a bb10or something u can knock yourself out

I don't think anybody is going to be bringing MFB.
Why not? There's no reason you can't play before and after the tournament with others, so you should bring whatever you'd like to play with, including MFB. Smile

But of course, the tournament itself is Burst only.

I'm bringing my HMS but thats about it
I will bring some MFB stuff of people wanna play. But I might not wanna carry it all the way to the meet spot depending on how far away that I have to park. I guess I could at least bring a few combos each for limited and standard and a launcher. I can bring a bb10 too, but don't know if I am gonna wanna carry that all the way from the car along with a burst stadium. Is there parking close by?

I don't want to bring a lot and don't really like MFB anymore.
I can't wait this tournament is less then 1 week away
Possible
~Thunder~ has been added to the possible list!
Sadly, I won't be able to get there in time for resgistration or for the competition to start.
i will be selling mfb parts pm me if u want.
