*My cousin ko'd my blade out of the ring and it slashed me on my arm leaving a bloody mark that lasted for weeks, we joked about how i had gotten "battle scars" just like off the show LOL, referring to ray in particular. The AR i was using was metal hoppers AR and for those who use it you know how sharp it can get over time.
*My cousins blade literally "pushed" my blade over to one of the stadium doors and sent my blade skyrocketing out after a few seconds, it was very loud and intense.
*My brother Knocking my cousins blade out of the ring and into the air where it then landed into my neighbors yard causing us to go "incognito", as my cousin puts it, and sneak into our neighbors yard to find the blade, if she'd caught us she would have definitely called the cops on us as she is very territorial and grumpy, we where contemplating going in at night, however we decided that day time would be best as all of the traffic would drown out our noise.
*One of my cousins Knocking out another one of my cousins blades and it landing into my little sisters swimming pool where it slid down the pool slide and continued to spin causing us to try the pool as a stadium, the rules where we had to be at least a foot away from the pool and we had to shoot our blades on to the sliding board where they would slide down and "supposedly" hit each other, however the space was too open in the pool for them to make contact though they did make contact a few times.
Now I'm not saying that this stadium guarantees an excellent knockout but, due to this stadiums strictness on knockouts this stadium is more likely to have "crazy" knockouts than other stadiums.
EDIT: I'd also like to note that the battles in this stadium are also very intense because the blades are "locked in", that is one more reason why i like this stadium, sorry for going off-topic.
this stadium is not supported by WBO rules, strategically it just an absolute mess of a stadium, so deal with it i guess

If I'd had a problem with it not being supported i would have made another thread. Jesus brad, its the same thing with you over and over but that's just the way you operate. Also, how is this stadium a mess strategically? I personally think that it's an attack types heaven.

Yeah its really flat, and from the look of it, it wears down tips faster than the regular stadium (I've never seen one in real life, though)

Ok. Good luck with whatever. Just because you got called up on your own BS.

The only thing I think of when I think of Hasbro is those little kid toys I'll see in the toys section when I go to places like Target and Walmart >.>
And though I personally haven't used a Takara stadium...or any for that matter because of my intense lack of cash...I agree that Takara stadiums are better then the Hasbro, at least from what I've read.

I know i said that i was gone but it really fires me up when someone says that i'm lying when i wasn't. By the way the portable stadium is not flat, even though it appears that way from the pictures, i too thought that it was flat at first but i brought it anyway because it was cheap and easy to find.
Who said you were lying about anything?

EDIT: New Name. Otakon Beyblade Revolution.
I am going to otakon.
Just spent the last hour trying to find my old blades...think my parents threw them all out ;[
So I got no blades that I can think of to battle . (Could always get some when I go to Japan this summer, I come back 3 days before Otakon =p)
So might just go to watch.
