Post your impressions of Hasbro's Pegasus Thunder Whip BeyStadium here.
I cannot KO anything in this stadium. Here are some test results:
Thermal Pisces DF145SD vs.
Thermal Pisces always shot first.
Storm Pegasis 100RF
Launcher Grip + MFB Shooter
Thermal Pisces: 5 wins
Storm Pegasis: 0 wins
Lightning L Drago CH120RF (145 height)
Launcher Grip + BeyLauncher L
Thermal Pisces: 5 wins
Lightning L Drago: 0 wins
Quetzalcoatl 90RF
Alternating between Launcher Grip + BeyLauncher/MFB shooter for Quetzalcoatl
Thermal Pisces: 10 wins
Quetzalcoatl: 0 wins
I also tried MF Sagittario 90RF in a couple battles, but to no avail. And, as you would imagine, it none of these customs fared any better against MF Earth Aquario C145WB. These are by no means comprehensive, but I got really bored quite quickly after the first 10 battles. Has anyone else been having completely different results than me?

There is a couple problems with Thunder Whip:
- It is not nearly steep enough. You really notice this when you compare it to the Attack Stadium
- In theory, having only two pockets alleviates the stadium positioning problem that was brought up in the most recent release of the WBO Official Rules, but the way in which it has been employed messes up the wall-to-exit/pocket ratio. In other words, there is a lot more wall space, than there is openings into the pockets.
- The Tornado Ridge is OK, but the flatness of the stadium negates how useful this should be. Even so, I often found my Beyblades to be skipping over the ridge, and then rebounding awkwardly off of the corners. You can score some decent hits, but I seriously haven't been able to get a fair KO.
